Get ready, Doctor Who fans! While the BBC hasn't officially announced it yet, it looks like Season 16 is happening!
Ncuti Gatwa Spills the Beans
The amazing Fifteenth Doctor, played by Ncuti Gatwa, let the cat out of the bag during an appearance on The Graham Norton Show, as reported by RadioTimes. While chatting, Gatwa casually mentioned filming a "third series" next year. Since Season 14 and Season 15 are already in the works (or out already!), this strongly suggests a Season 16 is a go!
Gatwa's Doctor and His Companions
Ncuti Gatwa made a big splash as the Fifteenth Doctor in the 60th anniversary special, using the mind-blowing Bigeneration process (something fans won't forget!) before setting out on his adventures! Alongside his companion Ruby Sunday (played by Millie Gibson) they'll take us into many incredible storylines across Season 14.
Even more exciting is that we'll get another companion in Season 15, Belinda, played by Varada Sethu!
What This Means for the Future
The lack of official confirmation from the BBC has everyone buzzing, but Gatwa's comments pretty much seal the deal, right? A new season with returning and new characters is great news! It's exciting and means lots more adventures! No official date, but expect something pretty soon! Season 15, we expect to see sometime in 2024 and the Christmas special! If a Season 16 is announced anytime soon, be prepared!
The Hype Is Real
For all those Doctor Who fanatics, this is huge. It's been more than enough time since Season 14's last episode! The anticipation will build, and build as fans are glued to their screens to get the latest updates!
It might be even more compelling since there were rumors around the series going dark as there are major challenges within the team creating the show, the absence of any word from Doctor Who creatives added to the drama! But what’s certain is, fans want more Doctor Who, and now those same fans have more reasons to look forward to this series! For everyone excited to jump in on another fantastic adventure. Make sure you're keeping up with all news and keep those expectations high for some amazing things coming out!
