13 THINGS WE KNOW ABOUT JODIE WHITTAKER’S FIRST SERIES OF DOCTOR WHO
1 Doctor Who’s always thrived on its ability to reinvent itself, so it’s no surprise that the creative forces behind series 11 see Jodie Whittaker’s arrival as an entry point for newcomers. “The first episode of a new Doctor is always a great place to start, and this year I think even more so,” new showrunner Chris Chibnall tells SFX at San Diego Comic-Con. “I hope it’s as inclusive, accessible, mainstream and entertaining a version of Doctor Who as we could possibly make. I feel like our job is to convince people who’ve never seen it that it is the greatest idea that television has ever had.”
2 Chibnall reckons that the Doctor regenerating into a woman for the first time was “possibly overdue”. “The world was ready, the show was ready, the audience was ready, I think the fans were ready,” he says. “Actually, Russell T Davies texted me the other day going, ‘I think there’s a mention in “The Hand Of Fear” about the regeneration of somebody turning male to female,’ so it was canon in 1976 or whenever.”
