UNIT returns! Jemma Redgrave returns as Kate Lethbridge-Stewart, and UNIT, the long-running organisation set on defending the Earth, returns in the next series of Doctor Who.

Aneurin Barnard also joins the series as the mysterious Roger ap Gwilliam.

I wonder if the comment was made with Chibnall specifically in mind, even though he does have other credits.

First hints that we have two other writers for the new series, which are 'wildly different', no names though

They're also using drones to film the TARDIS interior shots

Jinx Monsoon is looking like a Batman '66 Villian. I'm not feeling confident with about this, hopefully it'll be good. I was hoping she'd be playing Judy Garland.

I like the look of the afro on the Doctor. Curious to see how they handle genuine sixties racial attitudes. I won't be surprised if its hand waved away with a "perception filter".

They weren't brilliant, but they were a damn sight better than in the US, so depends where he's landing.

I’ve never been a fan of the Afro, looks like a goddam giant cotton poof on his head, silly. Also she, Jimx, looks kinda stupid as well.

To know one's surprise Murray Gold is back as composer.

https://www.doctorwhotv.co.uk/murray...oser-98339.htm

Says he's back for the 60th anniversary special. I imagine, he will stay on after that too.

I think this is good, didn't mind his previous 10-year run, did some absolute quality work.

New teaser trailer played backwards live on BBC television last night, a fan reversed the footage so you could hear dialouge.

Doctor Who was always a progressive programme, if you watch it knowing what you do now, this was the case even back in the classic era

Russel was also always a woke writer and his prior work on Doctor Who did a lot to push the show in that direction, but he managed to get away with it at the time because he usually prioritised the story over the message. Time will tell if he does the same now or is allowed to cut looser than he did in the 2000s when things were different.

A lot of what he's written since I've really enjoyed like It's A Sin and Years and Years, and they are very, very woke.
