In case you missed it, David Tennant returns as the Doctor for three specials, not as the 10th Doctor, but as the new 14th Doctor before Ncuti Gatwa takes over as the 15th Doctor. This is also a celebration of the show’s 60th anniversary. Former showrunner Russell T. Davies also returns and begins a new era with these three specials.
And this throwback to the RTD era wouldn’t be complete without Donna Noble, everyone’s favorite chatty Chiswick temp! Catherine Tate also returns to reunite with David Tennant. However, given what we last saw from Donna, we’ll have to wait and see how that happens.
The new trailer for the next three specials doesn’t reveal much about the big storyline, but it does raise a million more questions: Is Donna getting her memories back? Why did the Doctor regenerate into an ancient form? What are those creepy dolls? The three specials are titled The Star Beast, Wild Blue Yonder, and The Giggle.
Launching in November 2023, the three specials will air on the BBC in the UK and on Disney Plus elsewhere.
