With revamped Daleks, the welcome return of a fan favorite, and the exit of two much-loved companions, Doctor Who is taking its New Year’s Day special to another dimension this year.

The festive episode, Revolution of the Daleks, picks up the action where series 12 left off in March, with Jodie Whittaker’s 13th Time Lord locked up in a high-security alien prison.
