The future of Doctor Who has been revealed (Image: BBC) As the first full series of Ncuti Gatwa as Doctor Who continues to air on BBC One, creator Russell T Davies has opened up about the future of the show. The 61-year-old admitted there will be a Christmas special this year and the 2025 series has already been filmed, but explained that beyond that, things are very much still up in the air. Speaking in the latest issue of Radio Times , the writer expressed: "I’m working on the fourth script now for season three.
It’s not actually commissioned, that’s still up in the air. But that’s the same for every TV programme. I shouldn’t say we’re confident, because that’s asking for a fall, but we’re very confident, to be honest.
And we’ll just keep going." The screenwriter went on to add that lead star Ncuti, 31, will be doing the play The Importance of Being Earnest at the National Theatre in November and they're planning on shooting after that. Doctor Who returned on May 11, as Ncuti returned for his first full series, with Millie Gibson as his companion Ruby Sunday.
In a first for the show, they released two episodes to mark the occasion, Space Babies and The Devil's Chord. Fans were thrilled to finally get a new series and overall there was nothing but praise online for the new episodes of the long-running BBC sci-fi show, with people generally preferring the second episode to the first. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.
