After a sensational end to the last series, we look ahead to the Doctor Who christmas special – and Peter Capaldi’s last appearance as the iconic Time lord
Fans of Doctor Who were left with their heads spinning after the dramatic series finale. The Master and Missy seemed to have destroyed each other in an epic showdown, while companion Bill jumped out of the Tardis with Heather, the girl she’d fallen for in her first intergalactic adventure but who is now ‘The Pilot’ – able to take Bill anywhere they want to go in time or space.
It was quite an episode for the Doctor, too, with the Time Lord beginning his regeneration after seemingly being killed, then angrily resisting it by shouting, ‘I will not change!’ and vowing that this time he wouldn’t regenerate into a new Doctor.
