Though Ncuti Gatwa is set to take over the reins in 2023, a series of specials will first see Tennant return to the TARDIS (as Fourteen, not Ten).<\/p>\n
And now, Doctor Who Magazine<\/a> has revealed how the regeneration scene was filmed.<\/p>\n Whittaker\u2019s regeneration scene was shot on 13th October 2021, while Tennant\u2019s took place seven months later \u201con a similar, slightly smaller green screen just up the road at Roath Lock Studios\u201d, the magazine revealed.<\/p>\n The Power of the Doctor\u2019s director Jamie Magnus Stone was filming in Australia, so Rachel Talalay picked up the torch for Tennant\u2019s scene.<\/p>\n \u201cI can\u2019t imagine anyone better,\u201d Stone told the publication. \u201cI\u2019m an enormous fan of Rachel\u2019s episodes. I think she\u2019s the best director Doctor Who has ever had.\u201d<\/p> On filming the moment, Talalay said: \u201cI am so lucky I get to do this. That I get to re-regenerate David Tennant is phenomenal. I was already incredibly interested in returning.<\/p>\n \u201cJust the fact that Russell [T Davies] was coming back was enough. When I was told it was David too, that took me to a whole other level.\u201d<\/p>\n Speaking last month about his return to the sci-fi franchise, Tennant explained that \u201cit didn\u2019t really feel like a risk\u201d<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cI knew that Russell T Davies was in charge and I love working with him and I love receiving a script with his name on the front, so that just felt like it was a bit of a no-brainer, really,\u201d the actor explained<\/p>\n Doctor Who magazine issue 584 is out now<\/a>.<\/p>\n Doctor Who is available to stream on BBC iPlayer<\/a>\u00a0with episodes of the classic series also available on BritBox \u2013 you can sign up for a\u00a07-day free trial here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Check out more of our\u00a0Sci-Fi<\/a> coverage and visit our TV Guide<\/a> or\u00a0Streaming Guide<\/a> to see what\u2019s on tonight.<\/strong><\/p>\n The latest issue of Radio Times magazine is on sale now \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>subscribe now<\/strong><\/a>.
