As Whittaker’s Doctor says in the exciting trailer (which reveals much more than the World Cup tease), they’re “best friends” rather than companions.
Midway through the World Cup final, the first proper tease for the upcoming series of Doctor Who was released, featuring a brief glimpse of Jodie Whittaker as the Timelord.
Thankfully, that was all warm up for this year’s San Diego Comic Con, where BBC America showcased an all-new trailer, now available online.
Watch the trailer below, which features Ryan (played by Hollywoaks alumni Tosin Cole) Yasmin (Mandip Gill, also of Hollyoaks fame), and Bradley Walsh (yes, The Chase’s Bradley Walsh) helping the Doctor.
