Jodie’s Tardis won’t be landing anytime soon
DOCTOR Who will be returning for another series – but Jodie Whittaker’s Tardis will not land again until 2020.
Series 11 came to an end on Sunday evening, with the Doctor answering distress calls from a battle-scarred planet.
But there will be no new series of the sci-fi show, which has notched up praise for Whittaker’s performance but also some complaints about “politically correct” storylines, in 2019.
Whittaker, and her trio of companions will instead reprise their roles on BBC One in 2020.
Doctor Who boss and head writer Chris Chibnall said work has already begun on the 12th series.
BBC director of content Charlotte Moore said: “We’re delighted that the Doctor and her friends will be returning to thrill audiences in 2020.
“I know the whole team is already working on a whole new set of exciting adventures.”
