If you were still waiting on all the news for Doctor Who’s 60th anniversary, in time-twisting form the BBC is already teasing us with news for what’s to come beyond it—like a new face joining team TARDIS.Announced by the BBC during tonight’s annual “Children in Need” telethon event, Millie Gibson will play the new companion alongside Ncuti Gatwa’s 15th Doctor. No details were revealed about the character, beyond the fact that their name is Ruby Sunday.“Whilst still being in total disbelief, I am beyond…

Screenshot: BBCAll of Doctor Who’s post-regeneration scenes are brief little windows in what to possibly expect from a new Doctor—but when you’re David Tennant and getting the chance to play not one, but two Doctors, you’re going to want to have a little callback to the last time you did this.Tennant’s debut as the 14th Doctor in the climax of “The Power of the Doctor” is brief, but of course touches upon the confusion of both the Doctor and the audience that they suddenly look like one of their past selves again. Gazing…

Set immediately after the climax of “The Power of the Doctor,”…

At a Glance:Doctor Who ended the eras of both Chris Chibnall as series showrunner and Jodie Whittaker as the 13th Doctor in 2022 with “The Power of the Doctor,” bringing to a close a three-season, three-special run.Whittaker’s replacement is returning star David Tennant, who will play the official 14th incarnation of the Doctor under similarly returning showrunner Russell T. Davies, who revived Doctor Who in 2005 and managed the series until 2009. Tennant will appear in three specials in November 2023 to coincidewith the…

Image: BBCThe era of the 13th Doctor is over, and it went out how ultimately much of Chris Chibnall’s time as Doctor Who’s showrunner went over the last four years: with moments of brilliance outshined by a plodding, unwieldy mess of narratives that threatened to dragits excellent star down with it. In that way, it’s perhaps a fitting finale, if an unjust one.“The Power of the Doctor,” the final outing of Jodie Whittaker’s 13th Doctor and Chris Chibnall’s run as Doctor Who’s showrunner, is, like a lot of the duo’s recent…

Image: BBCIn a few weeks, Jodie Whitaker’s tenure with Doctor Who will come to an end. The upcoming Power of the Doctor special will see her Thirteenth Doctor face off against a greatest hits album of the Doctor’s more prominent foes, including the Daleks and The Master (Sasha Dhawan). After all, since this is her last time in the role, she has to go out with a bang. The sci-fi series may not have much of a presence at New York Comic-Con, but that didn’t stop the BBC from putting out a trailer to hype up the third and…

Screenshot: BBC/YouTubeThis October, Doctor Who’s Thirteenth Doctor, Jodie Whittaker, will take her final bow. Current showrunner Chris Chibnall will also be departing the series before David Tennant and Russell T. Davies return for the series’ 60th anniversary special, which we previously knew more about than the upcoming regeneration. That changed today with the official title reveal for an episode that’s arriving in just a few weeks. The BBC’s official Twitter page has revealed that Whittakerwill be saying goodbye in…

Have I got some bad vibes for you.If you’re not into ASMR or you’ve never heard of it, here’s a quick rundown: ASMR is short for autonomous sensory meridian response, and it’s the name of the sensation some people derive from hours-long videos of someone whispering into a camera at them. Some people describe the feeling as “tingles”…
