Jodie Whittaker has hinted that she’s already filmed her Doctor Who regeneration scene – but insists she has no idea who the next Doctor will be.

Speaking on The Graham Norton Show, she said: “They are never going to tell me who it is [that’s replacing me].

“We filmed some scenes, but the new Doctor wasn’t there. I wasn’t there for Peter [Capaldi], and I only met him months later when I passed him in the street!”

On season 13, she added: “I’m not allowed to tell you anything, but I can say the first episode is out on Halloween and it is a six-episode story arc – it’s like a six-hour film and it is amazing.”

Whittaker and her co-star Mandip Gill wrapped their final scenes earlier this month, according to a tweet posted on the official Doctor Who Twitter account.
