She\u2019s back\u2026 and it\u2019s about time! It\u2019s been very nearly 11 months since the Doctor (Jodie Whittaker) last graced our screens and while COVID-19\u2019s impact has meant plans for a 10-part series 13 had to be scaled back, Chris Chibnall and company are looking to make a virtue out of necessity by telling one epic story \u2013 subtitled Flux \u2013 across the six episodes that\u2019ve been produced.<\/p>\n
It certainly doesn\u2019t feel like we\u2019re getting short-changed: we\u2019ve been promised the return of classic foes like the Sontarans, the Weeping Angels, the Ood, and the Cybermen, plus a new companion in the form of John Bishop\u2019s Dan Lewis, and quite possibly some answers regarding the Doctor\u2019s origins following last year\u2019s big Timeless Child<\/a> reveal.<\/p>\n But what is the \u201cFlux\u201d and why is it \u201cthe biggest nemesis the Doctor has ever faced<\/a>\u201c? Who exactly is \u201cman of honour<\/a>\u201d Vinder (Jacob Anderson)? And with the Thirteenth Doctor\u2019s time almost up, will any of this play into her exit from the series?<\/p>\n Stay tuned to RadioTimes.com<\/a> for our live reactions to Flux: Chapter One \u2013 The Halloween Apocalypse as it plays out on BBC One from 6:25pm. The adventure\u2019s just beginning!<\/p> 05:25PM:<\/strong><\/p>\n Howdy, Whovians \u2013 and welcome to this live blog where we\u2019ll be experiencing and unpacking The Halloween Apocalypse together.
