WATCH: Happy Christmas! Trailer for Doctor Who’s 60th Anniversary episodes drops

December 27th, 2022 by Marc Comments

Happy (belated) Christmas!

This festive season may have been the first in seventeen years (?!!??!) without a Doctor Who special but incoming/returning showrunner Russell T Davies wanted to ensure our favourite Gallifreyan was still part of the Christmas Celebrations.

And so, shortly after teatime, when we were all recovering from our over-indulgence of the day, the trailer dropped for next year’s 60th Anniversary four-part adventure and it looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun!

Full of returning faces, Neil Patrick Harris’ villain (The Celestrial Toymaker, surely?), Ncuti Gatwa’s new incarnation of The Doctor and a couple of very fun characters that fans of the 80s Doctor Who comic strips will recognise, Davies hinted a few days ago that we would be ‘staggered’ by next year’s goodies and it really looks like he wasn’t exaggerating.

So check it out below and start the countdown to next November because the anticipation is already killing us!

Allons-y!

The show is just beginning…” #DoctorWho returns in 2023 ❤️❤️➕🔷

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
