Doctor Who’s Highly Anticipated New Season
The arrival of a new season of Doctor Who always generates excitement, but the latest installment has garnered even more anticipation than usual. The introduction of Ncuti Gatwa as the Fifteenth Doctor and the return of Russell T. Davies has set the stage for a fresh and bold era for the beloved sci-fi series.
Last Friday marked the debut of the new season with a two-episode premiere on Disney+, offering fans a glimpse into the future of the show.
The Doctor’s New Companion
Viewers got a taste of Gatwa’s interpretation of the Doctor in last year’s Christmas special, which also introduced his new companion, Ruby Sunday portrayed by Millie Gibson. The chemistry between the Doctor and Ruby was on full display in the pair of inaugural episodes.
In “Space Babies,” the duo encounters a crew of talking infants aboard a deserted spacecraft, alongside a lurking monster in the depths of the ship. Meanwhile, in “The Devil’s Chord,” they find themselves in 1963, faced with the task of ensuring the Beatles continue to create music to preserve historical continuity.
Review and Recap Coming Soon
Stay tuned for a detailed review and recap of both episodes on Monday, May 13. In the meantime, share your thoughts on “Space Babies” and “The Devil’s Chord” in the comments section. Do these episodes effectively set the stage for the upcoming season, or do they establish an unusual tone for the weeks ahead?
