The BBC confirmed last month that Peter Capaldi will guest star in the eight-part YA sci-fi drama’s opening episode, which is titled ‘For Tonight We Might Die’.

Capaldi commented: “The Doctor Who family is growing, and it’s fantastic to be able to welcome the young new cast of Class in to the Whoniverse.”

The official tagline for Class says: “Coal Hill acts like a beacon across all of space and time to any being who might want to use it for mischief….you’ll have to be on your guard.”

The cast is led Greg Austin, Fady Elsayed, Sophie Hopkins and Vivian Oparah as four Sixth Formers, with Katherine Kelly (Coronation Street) playing physics teacher Miss Quill.

The new season of Doctor Who is currently filming in Cardiff and begins on BBC One in April 2017.

Here’s everything we know so far about Doctor Who Season 10.
