It's time for us to do a little time-traveling of our own for this update on Showrunner Russell T. Davies, BBC & Disney+'s Doctor Who. Except it has nothing to do with David Tennant (Fourteenth Doctor) & Catherine Tate (Donna Noble) returning for the three-episode 60th-anniversary event. And it doesn't have anything to do with Ncuti Gatwa (Fifteenth Doctor) & Millie Gibson's (Ruby Sunday) upcoming new series of adventures in 2024. Earlier today, we learned that filming on Gatwa's second series officially got underway today – and we were treated to a very cool look at the TARDIS in the process.

Here's a look at the announcement teaser that went live earlier today – followed by a look back at two excellent music selections previewing the adventures still to come:

Here's a look back at Murray Gold, Segun Akinola, and the BBC National Orchestra performing our upcoming Doctor's new theme – along with some words from RTD near the end:

Here's a look back at a video showcasing Gold & Akinola's new take on the Doctor Who theme:

Along with Jemma Redgrave (Kate Lethbridge-Stewart), Aneurin Barnard (Roger ap Gwilliam), and Jack Forsyth-Noble (Will), Doctor Who Magazine #589 also confirmed that Bhav Joshi (Wedding Season), Eilidh Loan (Traces), Pete MacHale (Gangs of London), Miles Yekinni (Slow Horses), and Hemi Yeroham (Mamma Mia!) have joined the cast for the new series. In addition, Jinkx Monsoon (RuPaul's Drag Race) was also confirmed to have joined the cast – followed by Jonathan Groff (Glee, Mindhunter) and Indira Varma (Obsession, Game of Thrones) – as The Duchess – in May 2023. Bonnie Langford was confirmed to be returning as Melanie Bush in June 2023, along with Lenny Rush (Am I Being Unreasonable) as Morris. In early August 2023, we also learned that Gemma Arrowsmith (Gemma Arrowsmith Sketched Out) and Mary Malone (Vera, The Prince) had joined the Christmas Special – while Majid Mehdizadeh-Valoujerdy (Hollyoaks) and Billy Brayshaw (Still So Awkward) had joined the Series 14 cast.
