Radio Times reports that at a press event on October 11, Head of BBC Drama Piers Wenger had some things to say about selecting Russell T Davies to return as showrunner in 2023.
After delightfully reading about and reporting on all the delicious teasers in the lead up to Doctor Who's season 13's release, it was very sad to discover this Independent article and short video clip.
So says Doctor Who, with her trademark ominous gravity in a new trailer which appears to be a more complete version of last week's one.
And they're not alone:
The Flux is coming. It’s bringing with it the Sontarans, Weeping Angels, creatures known as The Ravagers and enemies from across the universe. This is the fight of our lives.
Doctor Who Edge of Reality has released another gamepaly trailer.
One of the developers involved in this had previously released a made for mobile game which appears to just be puzzles.
This one looks like an attempt to deliver something of a similar style but with a first person controllable character.
Doctor Who preferring to avoid violence as much as possible, it's surprising to see you take control of a Dalek at least for a time and are shooting things in this game.
Radio Times report that the BBC yesterday (October 6 UK) projected an enormous Sontaran ship onto Liverpool's George’s Pier Head as another season 13 teaser.
The BBC have also revealed that Liverpool was chosen for the ship projection because that's where season 13 will begin and where the Doctor will meet a new character played by UK comedian John Bishop.
We still have no news on Doctor Who's release date beyond it being this year.
Well not quite, but they've announced that their October 15 (UK) sofa guests will include Doctor Who's Jodie Whittaker and Dune's Timothee Chalamet (Paul Atreides).
Two leads from major sci-fi properties might be worth tuning in for. If you weren't going to anyway.
That'll be season 29, episode 4 and Nine's website says we'll be getting season 29 episode 1 on October 6. So maybe expect to see this episode here towards the end of October.

In 2023 Russell T Davies will again take the lead as showrunner for the world's longest running sci-fi tv series in its 60th anniversary year. Though he hasn't been completely absent from the franchise and has been writing for other projects.
