The season is also rumored to be Jodie Whittaker’s last season, which would mean a new Doctor taking over should BBC America choose to bring it back for Season 14.
Given all that plus John Bishop’s appearance, now may be the best time for fans who have stepped away briefly to consider catching up for what could be a whirlwind season.
Season 13 is set to be an exciting season of Doctor Who after Season 12 retconned a massive part of the Doctor’s origin in claiming she’s not from Gallifrey and has far more regenerations than previously thought.
