The 'Doctor Who' villains are set for their own spin-off show.

The Cybermen and Daleks will feature in a new programme devoted solely to the Time Lord's many enemies.

A source told The Mirror: "Fans can expect to see Sontarans, Weeping Angels and Sea Devils in separate series showing what they get up to when the Doctor isn’t there to stop them, along with Daleks and Cybermen."

This comes after the BBC reportedly signed a huge deal with Disney+, leading the budget for 'Doctor Who' to be tripled to £10million per installment.

Meanwhile, Jodie Whittaker previously revealed she got teary every time she talked about her departure from 'Doctor Who'.

The 40-year-old 'Broadchurch' actress made her final outing as the Thirteenth Doctor in the 'Doctor Who' centenary titled 'The Power of the Doctor' - which is part of the BBC's celebrations to mark 100 years of broadcasting.

Jodie admitted she struggled to talk about her final scenes without getting emotional.

She told Empire magazine: "I cannot talk about it without crying. I've got to get better at this, because this is the next few weeks for me - talking about my regeneration."

Jodie went on to explain showrunner Chris Chibnall - who is leaving the show at the same time as her - wrote some extremely moving dialogue for her character's big exit.

She added: "I love the dialogue Chris wrote for my regeneration. It captures my Doctor beautifully. It’s simple, epic and beautiful.

"When I could see the crew was happy with that last shot, that’s when my bottom lip started going. I was like, 'Well, they can’t say they need another take now because I’ve f***ing lost it!' "
