Doctor Who season 10 won’t air until Spring 2017, but to tide Whovians over in the meantime there is, of course, the upcoming Doctor Who Christmas special as well as a new spinoff series – Class.
Comparisons have also been made to Torchwood, a previous spinoff, and where that series took the Doctor Who brand of sci-fi in a more adult direction, Class is geared towards the young adult/teen crowd.
Class is expected to be closer in tone to a show like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but will obviously lean more heavily into the sci-fi elements of the Doctor Who universe.
Class will air on BBC3 from October 22nd in the U.K., and on BBC America in Spring 2017.
