The Doctor is set to follow in the footsteps of the likes of Jodie Whittaker, Tom Hardy, Harry Styles and Kate Winslet with his own CBeebies Bedtime Story episode.<\/p>\n

Doctor Who<\/a> star David Tennant will be reprising the iconic sci-fi role this weekend in the first of Russell T Davies\u2019s specials, ahead of the new season\u2019s premiere with Ncuti Gatwa<\/a> at the helm.<\/p>\n

Before that, however, the rebranded Fourteenth Doctor will be reading The Way Back Home on CBeebies tomorrow (Friday 24th November).<\/p>\n

The tale is certainly worthy of a space-trotting adventurer. It follows a boy who discovers an aeroplane in his closet and decides to fly it into space, where he\u2019s bound to make some friends and go on a few otherworldly adventures before he returns home.<\/p>\n

The Way Back Home is written by Oliver Jeffers, who has also penned bestselling children\u2019s books Stuck, This Moose Belongs to Me, The Day the Crayons Quit and Lost and Found, which was turned into an animation that aired on Christmas Eve 2008 on Channel 4.<\/p>\n
