Doctor Who Christmas Special 2017.
Word reaches us here at SFcrowsnest towers from the set of the BEEB … of their new Doctor Who Christmas Special for 2017.
This year, the final chapter of the Twelfth Doctor Peter Capaldi’s journey sees the Time Lord team up with his former self, the first ever Doctor (actor David Bradley of Harry Potter & Game of Thrones fame) and a returning Bill Potts (Pearl Mackie), for a final adventure.
Two Doctors stranded in an Arctic snowscape, refusing to face regeneration. Enchanted glass people, stealing their victims from frozen time. And a World War One captain destined to die on the battlefield, but taken from the trenches to play his part in the Doctor’s story.
A tale about the power of hope in humanity’s darkest hours, Twice Upon A Time marks the end of an era. But as the Doctor must face his past to decide his future, his journey is only just beginning…
Twice Upon A Time is written by Steven Moffat, directed by Rachel Talalay, and executive produced by Brian Minchin.
The 60 minute special guest stars Mark Gatiss as The Captain and Nikki Amuka-Bird as the voice of the glass woman, and will see Peter Capaldi’s Doctor regenerate into the Thirteenth Doctor (Jodie Whittaker).
