The sci-fi series had previously moved to Sunday nights during Jodie Whittaker’s era as the Doctor. <\/p>
It\u2019s only a matter of days before Doctor Who<\/a> fans will be able to revel again in the joys of David Tennant as the Doctor, alongside his trusted companion Donna Noble, played by Catherine Tate.<\/p>\n The new batch of 60th anniversary episodes<\/a> kicks off with the first instalment, The Star Beast<\/a>, which airs this Saturday (25th November) \u2013 and it\u2019s set to begin an exciting second era for showrunner Russell T Davies<\/a>.<\/p>\n But as well as lots of returning talent, the episode marks Doctor Who moving back to Saturday nights, which will likely be a welcome shift in schedule for fans, after it moved to a Sunday night slot in 2018.<\/p>\n Mentioning it on BBC\u2019s The One Show last night (Monday 20th November), Tennant said: \u201cThree Saturdays in a row. Doctor Who lives on a Saturday, I think.\u201d<\/p> Davies nodded and added: \u201cIt\u2019s not a three-part story. You can watch each one separately, and they\u2019re all different ones. One\u2019s like a big family film, one\u2019s very scary, one\u2019s insane.\u201d<\/p>\n Tennant said: \u201cYes, they\u2019re very different. Each one is really quite unique. The first one is the sort of world of Doctor Who that you\u2019ll recognise, I think. The second one is unlike any episode of Doctor Who ever done before. And the third one is\u2026 bananas.\u201d<\/p>\n “The third one is bananas!” \ud83d\ude02
