Doctor Who returns in November 2023 with three special episodes to coincide with the show’s 60th anniversary, with David Tennant as the Fourteenth Doctor.

The Fifteenth Doctor, played by Ncuti, will take control of the TARDIS and his first episode will air over the festive period next year.

In October, Jodie Whittaker stepped down from her role as The Doctor, replaced by returning star David for upcoming anniversary episodes.

The power of the Doctor was packed with excitement as famous faces returned, Jodie retired after five years as Time Lord, David made his return and fans got their first look at Ncuti Gatwa as the 14th Doctor.

Several former assistants, including Janet Fielding, who plays Tegan, and former doctors Peter Davison and Colin Baker made guest appearances in the epic.

The episode came to a very dramatic conclusion when Jodie’s Doctor surprisingly regenerated into a very familiar face: David Tennant’s Tenth Doctor.

Despite not being ready to regenerate, she said while looking at the sunset: ‘The most blooming flower. That’s the only sad thing. I want to know what happens next.

“Very good, doctor-who-I-want-I-am-to-be. Tag, you are,’ before Tennant made the surprising appearance of him.

The newly regenerated Doctor ran his fingers over his teeth and said ‘I know these’ clearly puzzled as he returned to his old body.

David returns for three special episodes, airing in November 2023, after retiring from the role in 2010.

The 60th feature-length celebration of the sci-fi series will also star Catherine Tate, reprising her role as companion Donna Noble.

Big changes: The Fifteenth Doctor, played by Ncuti, will take control of the TARDIS and his first episode will air over the festive period next year.

Jodie’s final episode on Sunday night ended with a short preview of the anniversary episodes, which will hit screens in 2023.

The trailer teased Ncuti’s long-awaited arrival as the star was seen asking, “Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on?”

After the episode, showrunner Russell T Davies said, “If you thought David Tennant’s appearance came as a shock, we’ve got plenty more surprises on the way!”

‘Ncuti’s path to the Fifteenth Doctor is full of mystery, terror, robots, puppets, danger and fun! And how does it tie in with the return of the wonderful Donna Noble? How, what, why? We give you a year to speculate and then all hell breaks loose!
