Doctor Who: Season Two

Doctor Who: Season Two is headed for a specific date

Posted Filed under

In Doctor Who Season Two, the Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) is trying to get Belinda Chandra (Varada Sethu) back home. This means getting back to modern-day Earth, not simply the planet. Trips into Earth’s past are still possible. Why aren’t trips to the planet’s future possible? Russell T Davies hinted at this in SFX magazine 390.

“Getting back to a very specific date,” Davies teased to SFX. “That’ll make sense once you watch the whole season.”

A teaser released by the BBC may lend some clues to this.

In it is a calendar with dates crossed out until 23 May 2025.
