Doctor Who series 11 reveals new Jodie Whittaker image
The BBC has dropped a new official image of Jodie Whittaker ahead of the launch of Doctor Who series 11.
The new series is currently filming, having commenced shooting in late 2017 – around November time.
The latest image, which shows Jodie's Doctor looking wistfully into the distance, was posted by the Beeb on social media with the caption: "Looking to the future..."
And presumably the past, and the present, all at once. She is a Time Lord after all.
Series 11 of Doctor Who – slated for autumn on BBC One – will be the first under new showrunner Chris Chibnall, best known for his work on ITV's Broadchurch.
Chibnall's not just introducing a new Doctor, he'll be inventing his own companions too.
The 13th Doctor's new friends are Yasmin (Mandip Gill), Ryan (Tosin Cole), and Graham (Bradley Walsh) – yes, we'll be getting a fully-fledged TARDIS team.
It's also been officially confirmed how many episodes we'll be getting in 2018 – with just 10 as opposed to the recent standard of 12. However, they'll be longer outings – 50 minutes, rather than 45, with a bumper-length series opener running to a full hour.
Chibnall apparently has a "five-year" plan for the series... and he won't be playing it safe. "What the BBC was after was risk and boldness," he said in June 2017.
We can't wait. Anyone got a TARDIS handy?
