Each Tale of the TARDIS appears to be like as if it will likely be 90 minutes lengthy and made up of a mixture of brand name new scenes described as: “woven along with basic episodes to create a feature-length omnibus episodes”. The solid will “step again into character to mirror on their adventures and within the course of they uncover one thing new, leaving viewers with a brand new perception into the story of every timeless pair.”

The new scenes have been written by present showrunner Russell T Davies and Doctor Who writers Phil Ford (Dreamland, The Sarah Jane Adventures, Wizards vs. Aliens, “Into the Dalek” and “The Waters of Mars”) and Pete McTighe (“Kerblam!”, “Praxeus”, Wentworth, The Rising, The Pact).

Over the previous couple of years, Pete McTighe has been the author of a number of new scenes that includes former Companions in character that have been used to announce Doctor Who “The Collection” disc releases, together with Bonnie Langford as Melanie Bush, Katy Manning and Stewart Bevan as Jo and Clifford Jones, Janet Fielding and Sarah Sutton as Tegan and Nyssa, and extra. Good coaching for this specific gig, by the sounds of it.

Fans are already poring over newly launched photos of the returning solid, recognizing background particulars from previous adventures within the reworked TARDIS interiors . See should you can spot what appears to be like to be a Toclafane, Handles the Cyberman, the orange spacesuit, and far more within the new pics.
