Midway through the World Cup final, the BBC released the first trailer for Jodie Whittaker’s take on Doctor Who, featuring all the Time Lord’s upcoming companions (no longer called companions but ‘friends’).
She happens to be watching Gary Lineker talk football when the light passes by, magically making a pizza appear.
Low and behold, that mysterious, magical and transformative light was the Doctor, Whittaker’s thirteenth Doctor emerging and smiling at the clip’s conclusion.
Well, not a whole lot really, apart from the obvious metaphor of the Doctor improving these three characters lives somehow.
