Talk about a big day for Doctor Who fans.
Sunday's feature-length episode of the show, "The Power of the Doctor," concluded with former Doctor Who star David Tennant becoming current Doctor Who star David Tennant as Jodie Whittaker's version of the time traveler unexpectedly regenerated into that of the Scottish actor. Now the BBC has released a teaser for next year's 60th anniversary episodes which features both Tennant and Catherine Tate who is reprising her role of Donna Noble, the companion of Tennant's Doctor. The clip also offered a look at Neil Patrick Harris and Ncuti Gatwa, who was announced in May as Whittaker's replacement.
The BBC has confirmed that Tennant and Tate will appear in three 60th anniversary special episodes. Ncuti Gatwa, who had been expected to make his debut on the show at the end of Sunday's episode, will then take control of the TARDIS, with his first episode airing over the festive period in 2023.

"If you thought the appearance of David Tennant was a shock, we've got plenty more surprises on the way!" said showrunner Russell T. Davies in a statement. "The path to Ncuti's Fifteenth Doctor is laden with mystery, horror, robots, puppets, danger and fun! And how is it connected to the return of the wonderful Donna Noble? How, what, why? We're giving you a year to speculate, and then all hell lets loose!"
