Jodie Whittaker’s departure from Doctor Who is just a rumour at the moment, as it has been for the last few weeks, but new reports have added more detail to the Thirteenth Doctor’s supposed exit, suggesting that she’ll be handing in her sonic screwdriver after two specials including one later in 2022.
In this week’s Radio Times podcast they analyse these new rumours, debating the possibility of a tie-in with the BBC’s centenary celebrations (also in 2022) and also imagine how structural changes to series 13 could change how it tells a story.
The series 13 could be life changing for the Doctor Who show, as the Doctor being the Timeless Child, and it will be interesting to watch.
