Hey, Who fans and welcome to Episode 430.

We’re back in the TARDIS, Who fans! This week we’re unpacking some big Doctor Who updates — the BBC has reaffirmed its commitment to the show, confirming a 2026 Christmas special penned by Russell T Davies. There’s also fresh news on the upcoming spin-off The War Between the Land and the Sea, now confirmed for this Christmas. Plus, we share our thoughts on where the series is heading and what we’re hoping to see in the Doctor’s future.
