With all eight episode titles now revealed, fan speculation is sure to be sent into overdrive... are there any clues held within as to the twists and turns we can expect from the upcoming season?
The new season follows 2023 Christmas special 'The Church on Ruby Road', which saw Ncuti Gatwa make his Doctor Who debut proper alongside new companion Millie Gibson, playing Ruby Sunday.
The festive episode teased the mysterious identity of a hooded figure – the birth mother of Ruby – with Michelle Greenidge (who plays Ruby's adoptive mother Carla) hinting to RadioTimes.com that she knows how the story arc will resolve.
"I might know the answer to that!" she said. "What I will say is, when the series airs… I don't think the audience are going to be ready. It is incredible. The story arc, the writing... you'll be gripped. I'm so ecstatic with how things have played out."
