A new trail has been released for Doctor Who<\/a> series 13, alongside new details about the long-awaited return for Jodie Whittaker\u2019s Time Lord including a confirmed airdate<\/a> (31st October) and new series subtitle (Flux for all six episodes<\/a>).<\/p>\n The 20 seconds of footage shows Jodie Whittaker\u2019s Doctor addressing the audience at home, warning them of the dangers of the \u201cFlux\u201d alongside the return of classic monsters like the Sontarans (whose return was hinted at previously) and the Weeping Angels, alongside creatures called Ravagers.<\/p>\n \u201cCan you hear me? Listen carefully, we don\u2019t have much time,\u201d Whittaker\u2019s Doctor says from her TARDIS. \u201cThe Flux is coming. It\u2019s bringing with it The Sontarans, Weeping Angels, creatures known as The Ravages and enemies from across the universe. This is the fight of our lives.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cDoctor we need you!\u201d cries new companion Dan, as played by John Bishop.<\/p>\n \u201cI can\u2019t hold it much longer Doctor,\u201d adds Mandip Gill\u2019s Yaz.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s coming. Be ready,\u201d Whittaker concludes.<\/p>\n And if you didn\u2019t fancy reading all that, well, you can just watch the clip below.<\/p>\n\n Given Whittaker\u2019s confirmed exit from the show in late 2022, eagle-eyed fans will be keen to look out for any clues about her eventual fate in this footage, which will play out over series 13 and three more specials before her regeneration next autumn.<\/p>\n Still, in the shorter term the clip offers some clues about what to expect from Doctor Who: Flux, which has had its story kept under wraps thus far. Now, fans at least know of two familiar villains returning, alongside newer threats like the Ravagers (not to be confused with the group in Guardians of the Galaxy) and the Flux itself.<\/p>\n Considering its unusually serialised story (a consequence of a reduced episode count caused by COVID delays) and the fact of Whittaker and showrunner Chris Chibnall\u2019s impending departures, series 13 looks set to be particularly momentous one way or another. Happily, it now won\u2019t be too long until we can see more than just a few flashes of footage.<\/p> Doctor Who returns to BBC One on Sunday 31s October.
