After 12 years since Russell T. Davies exited Doctor Who, BBC has announced that Davies will officially make his return to the long-running sci-fi series for its upcoming 60th Anniversary in 2023.
Doctor Who currently stars Jodie Whittaker as the Thirteenth Doctor, Mandip Gill as Yasmin Khan, and John Bishop as Dan.
His four-year tenure on Doctor Who oversaw a surge in popularity, which resulted into two spinoff series Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures.
Chibnall added, “It’s monumentally exciting and fitting that Doctor Who’s 60th anniversary will see one of Britain’s screenwriting diamonds return home.
