Doctor Who debuts enigmatic trailer for next episode Wild Blue Yonder

Love Doctor Who? Listen to our podcast episode about David Tennant’s video game comeback!

Speaking at a Q&A following a screening of The Star Beast, Davies said: "It's weird, the next one, it's kind of scary. It's not super scary, it's just weird."

The new teaser isn't giving much away – we see the TARDIS duo land aboard what appears to be a deserted spacecraft, only to detect life signs...

"What are they?" asks a petrified Donna, as she and her best friend appear to be cornered by an unseen menace...

You can watch the teaser for Wild Blue Yonder below:

It certainly looks as though we're in for a change of pace following adventure romp The Star Beast, which was lauded in early reactions from Doctor Who fans.

Following Wild Blue Yonder, the final Doctor Who 60th special will be The Giggle, which will mark the return of classic villain The Toymaker (now played by Neil Patrick Harris).

Sex Education star Ncuti Gatwa's first episode as the Fifteenth Doctor will then follow just 16 days after The Giggle, airing on Christmas Day on BBC One.

Titled The Church on Ruby Road, this instalment will also see Millie Gibson make her debut as new companion Ruby Sunday.
