.

With David Tennant and Catherine Tate reprising their roles for the 60th anniversary, it has been confirmed that they will appear in three special episodes, set to air in November 2023.

The next Doctor, played by Ncuti Gatwa, will then take control of the TARDIS, with his first episode airing over the festive period in 2023.

I saw the clips of the regeneration and classic Docs on YT. They were nice enough for what little it was, spares me having to sit through the whole thing just for that.
I hope this doesn't mean the rumour of McGann being in the 60th isn't true. I was hoping for rather more than thirty seconds.

In truth the episode was okay, but pretty shit if you began to analyze it at all. But although it was pretty shit there were enough exterminations and Cybermen battles to keep it entertaining but mainly there were some AMAZING moments in that last half hour.

The last couple of scenes were so good i'm sure RT-D wrote them rather than Chris Chibnall.

I actually laughed out loud when the Master saw Tegan and asked her if she'd got a dolls house for her Aunt Vanessa to live in.

@IanK

The fact McGann was dressed as the Doctor properly rather than in robes made me think that he perhaps was in the 60th specials.
