Doctor Who Series 37 / 11 Release Date Trailer

The Doctor's ready, are you? The new series of Doctor Who lands on Sunday, 7th October 2018. Release date varies by country, please check listings.

Series 37/11 Title And Airdate are Revealed

On Thursday, 5th September, the BBC revealed the airdate for the upcoming new series of Doctor Who to be ...  SUNDAY 7TH OCTOBER 2018. You read that right. The BBC have decided in their wisdom to move our beloved show from its regualar Saturday evening slot to a Sunday. They have basically thought, what better way to end a hard working week, than for us all to sit down in front of the tele-box, let the Sunday roast settle in our bellies, and watch the new series of doctor Who. The title for the opener of Series 37/11 is: The Woman Who Fell To Earth,  as many YouTube fan made videos had predicted.

When we last saw the Doctor (Jodie Whittaker), they had just regenerated and promptly expelled from the TARDIS prior to it dematerialising.

New showrunner, Chris Chubnall has said, "We have a new Doctor, new monster, so it's only fitting that the TimeLord has a new time slot". The BBC have yet to reveal the time for the opening episode but, I would guess that it will be 7pm.

Thirteenth Doctor Relives Her Past Lives In New Titan Comic

Titan Comics are to release a new Doctor Who comic this September - 'The Thirteenth Doctor Vol 0: The Many Lives Of Doctor Who', a special primer edition, which will celebrate the many and wondrous lives of the Doctor. 

Doctor Who Vol 0 finds the Doctor regenerating from Peter Capaldi's Twelfth incarnation tnto |Jodie Whittaker's Thirteenth, and reliving unseen adventures from all of the Time Lord's previous lives, from Classic to Nu Who. 

It's said that your life flashes before your eyes when you die, and the Doctor’s had many of them! As the Doctor regenerates from his twelfth incarnation to her thirteenth (as played by Jodie Whittaker), she relives unseen adventures from all her past selves from Classic through to New Who. Hitting stores in September 2018, The Thirteenth Doctor #0 features a stellar cast of Doctor Who comic creators including writer Richard Dinnick and artists Mariano Laclaustra, Giorgia Sposito, Arianna Florean, Iolanda Zanfardino, Brian Williamson, Claudia Ianniciello and Rachael Stott, the artist of Titan’s new Thirteenth Doctor series!

This special 64-page edition - the first Thirteenth Doctor comic - comes with two covers to collect: an art cover by Claudia Ianniciello and a photo variant by designer Will Brooks - only available in comic shops. The Thirteenth Doctor #0 is part of Titan Comics' larger plans for the Thirteenth Doctor, which includes the launch of issue #1 in October and Doctor Who Comics Day on November 24.

This isn't the first time that a newly incarnation of the Doctor has met his previous selves. In the BBC Books - The Eighth Doctors novel, Paul McGann's Doctor met his previous selves in order to remember who he was following a trap left by the Master, after checking the Eye Of Harmony in his TARDIS, which erases his memory. The only thing he remembers is that he is called the Doctor.

New Sonic Screwdriver Photos - Spoilers!

Two images have leaked online of the all-new sonic screwdriver. As seen at the end of the Christmas special Twice Upon A Time, Jodie Whittaker's Doctor has no sonic screwdriver as she falls out of the TARDIS as it disappears. As you can see from the pictures, there is a crystal at the top, which is reminiscent of the Eighth Doctor's own sonic screwdriver.

New Composer For New Chibnall Era

Hi everyone. My apologies for the lack of posts since the end of 2017. The reason being, I had a major issue with my laptop which took some time to get fixed and also with personal issues which are now all sorted. I have missed updating this Doctor Who blog during the last 7 months and I will keep The Gallifrey Chronicles upto date more frequently. Thank you - Cerys x

Now, onto the WHO stuff.

I won't be adding information that I have missed because, you have most likely caught up with what has been released via other Doctor Who blogs.  Therefore, I will recommence with presently released news.

 

First off, when will Series 37 / 11 air? The BBC have not given an official airdate for Jodie Whittaker's full series debut. However, it is expected to air in the Autumn, and is likely to be mid- September. The opening episode will be an extended one at 65 minutes and the remaining episodes will be 50 minutes in length as compared to the previous 45 minutes of previous series. There will be 10 episodes in total, unlike 13 episodes per series since Doctor Who returned. 

New Composer

Following the departure of former Doctor Who composer Murray Gold, the new and anticipated series' score will be composed by Segun Akinola who will bring in a fresh take on the Doctor Who theme, originally composed by Ron Grainer and brought to life by Delia Derbyshire). Segun said in a statement that he was "Absolutely thrilled to have landed the job with Doctor Who. Who is woven into the fabric of British  culture and recognised globally. I am absolutely thrilled to be given the privilege of working on such a beloved series and to bring my musical voice to it"
