A pass released Doctor who trailer teases exactly what David Tennant and Catherine Tate are up against in the 60th anniversary special episodes.
Tennant returns to the hit BBC and Disney+ series as the Fourteenth Doctor, alongside Tate reprising her role as Donna Noble. In the 41-second video, the unknown character of Neil Patrick Harris can be seen dancing with Tennant at one point, and Yasmin Finney appears in another clip.
The titles for the three upcoming specials were also revealed in the trailer, including ‘The Star Beast’, ‘Wild Blue Yonder’ and ‘The Giggle’.
“The titles are just the beginning of the Doctor’s biggest adventure yet,” said showrunner Russell T Davies. “Autumn is coming, with three hours of danger, Donna and disaster about to be unleashed!”
It was also previously announced that Jacqueline King and Karl Collins will return to reprise their roles as Sylvia Noble and Shaun Temple, respectively, in the specials, as well as that Ruth Madeley was introduced as Shirley Anne Bingham.
The special episodes celebrate the anniversary of the show, which was created in 1963 and revived in 2005, with Tennant, who previously starred in Doctor who for five years, returning to TARDIS as the Time Lord. The episodes will air in November 2023.
After the specials, Ncuti Gatwa will star as the 15th Doctor in Season 14, along with his companion Millie Gibson as Ruby Sunday. That season is likely to hit screens in 2024, but fans can see Gatwa’s Doctor sooner after he quickly appeared in a previously released teaser for the anniversary specials.
