Hey Doctor Who fans are you ready? Because the TARDIS is about to land again and things are looking seriously exciting for Season 15! We just got a brand new trailer some official episode titles and a whole bunch of juicy details to get us hyped for Ncuti Gatwa 's next adventures as the Doctor. Let's dive in!
Episode Titles Are Here and They Sound Absolutely Wild: Get Ready for 'Robot Revolution' and More!
First things first lets talk episode titles. The BBC just dropped the names for all the episodes in Season 15 and they are giving us major hints about what's in store. The season kicks off with a banger episode one titled "The Robot Revolution". Intriguing right? We can only guess what kind of robotic mayhem the Doctor and his new companion Belinda will be facing.
Showrunner Russell T Davies is clearly excited and said there's "nothing a Doctor Who fan loves more than facts!" He is definitely teasing us with these titles making us eager to know more. While the full episode list hasn't been revealed knowing the first title alone is enough to set our imaginations soaring about what kind of interstellar escapades we are in for.
Trailer Breakdown: Belinda's Journey Home Takes a Very Unexpected Turn Across Time and Space
Speaking of excitement have you seen the new trailer yet? If not drop everything and watch it now! It gives us a fantastic peek at what's coming. It looks like the central arc of Season 15 revolves around the Doctor trying to get Belinda Chandra played by the awesome Varada Sethu back home to Earth.
However as always with the Doctor things are never simple. It seems like Earth itself might be in trouble! The trailer hints that something mysterious has happened to our home planet. Belinda really wants to get back but even the TARDIS seems to be acting up more than usual making their journey a long and winding one across all of time and space.
But hey even a long detour with the Doctor looks like a blast. The trailer is packed with glimpses of new monsters crazy situations and Ncuti looking incredibly stylish as he saves the day in all sorts of amazing outfits. We are definitely in for a visually stunning season with adventures in all sorts of eras from 1952 to the 51st century and beyond.
Animated Universe Adventure? Mr. Ring-a-Ding and a Cartoonish Twist for Doctor Who
Hold on to your sonic screwdrivers because Season 15 is going to break new ground for Doctor Who. Get ready for an animated reality ! Yes you read that right the Doctor and Belinda are heading into a cartoon universe for at least one episode. This is a first for the modern era of the show although classic Who did dabble in animation to recover lost episodes.
The second episode of the season will feature a brand new villain called Mr. Ring-a-Ding voiced by the amazing Alan Cumming. He's described as a "happy funny singalong cartoon" character who lives in "Sunny Town". Sounds innocent enough right? Wrong! Apparently in 1952 Mr. Ring-a-Ding starts to notice the real world outside his cartoon screen and things get "terrifying". The trailer even shows the Doctor and Belinda getting a 2D cartoon makeover giving off major Saturday morning cartoon vibes like Scooby-Doo. This is going to be a seriously unique and imaginative episode for Doctor Who.
Returning Faces and Dazzling Guest Stars: Season 15 Cast is Packed with Talent
Of course it wouldn't be Doctor Who without a stellar cast and Season 15 is bringing the goods. Alongside Ncuti Gatwa and Varada Sethu we will see the return of Millie Gibson as Ruby Sunday. Fans will be happy to see Ruby back although we don't know yet if she will be in every episode or just some.
And the guest cast is incredible. We already mentioned Alan Cumming as Mr. Ring-a-Ding but get ready for even more stars. Emmy winner Alan Cumming is just the tip of the iceberg. The guest list includes Rose Ayling-Ellis Anita Dobson Bonnie Langford Jemma Redgrave Ruth Madeley Susan Twist Caoilfhionn Dunne Christopher Chung Evelyn Miller Ariyon Bakare Julie Dray Michelle Greenidge Angela Wynter Alexander Devrient Rylan Freddie Fox and Jonah Hauer-King. That is a seriously impressive lineup. We cannot wait to see how these amazing actors bring new life and energy to the Doctor's universe.
