A bit of credit where credit is due:

https://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/111042668.html
- The trailer for Doctor Who Season 11 will premiere June 18 (after England's first world cup match)
- Some people have already seen it and the spoilers are huge, teasing two big comebacks!

SPOILER:

- The trailer will show a cinematic take of Jodi whitaker's doctor and her new 3 companions.
- The Daleks are returning because duh.
- The trailer will show the return of John Barrowman and Eve Myles reprising their roles as Captain Jack Harkness and Gwen Cooper from Doctor Who's spin-off Torchwood.
- Jack and Gwen will reportedly have big roles during the season premiere and season finale.
- The last time Jack and Gwen were in Doctor Who was 10 years ago during the 2008's season 4 two-part finale which was a big crossover between Doctor Who, Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures.
- The last time Jack and Gwen were in Torchwood it was back in 2011 during 'Torchwood: Miracle Day'. Jack recovered his immortality but since he traded blood with Rex, another CIA agent, he also became immortal.


Masses amount of information here:

I'm delighted by the news. He was always a favourite character of mine. Plus the actor in question always has great enthusiasm for the show.

Lets hope Chibnall uses the Daleks properly and has them as a real threat.

The vinyl Sainsburys only release of Big Finish story Energy of the Daleks has charted at #91 in the album chart.

Official Albums Chart Top 100 | Official Charts Company

That's quite a coup for Big Finish.

I've just recently started buying some of the Big Finish Doctor Who range, and have already bought a few of the Tom Baker / Lalla Ward stories, which I've really enjoyed.
I'm also loving the recent Third Doctor collections. Great to hear Katy Manning again and Tim Treloar as the third Doctor is uncannily like listening to Pertwee himself. I really hope there are more of these in the pipeline.
