The BBC have given Doctor Who fans the best present possible.
To begin with, we’re stressing the strongest spoiler alert warning possible because in the event that you haven’t seen the most recent episode, we want it to remain unspoilt.
Seriously, in our finest Dalek tones, we’re saying SPOILER ALERT, SPOILER ALERT!
The Doctor Falls was a stunning conclusion to the most recent series because we still have so many unanswered questions.
What happened to Bill? How did the Doctor regenerate? Will we see the Master again? What’s Missy’s agenda and finally finally, what’s in store for the future.
Well, the BBC have revealed that ” this year’s Doctor Who Christmas special will be a multi-Doctor adventure featuring the current Doctor (Peter Capaldi) and the First Doctor (David Bradley). The cliff-hanger ending saw the Doctor fatally shot by a Mondasian Cyberman and begin to regenerate. Stepping out of the TARDIS into an arctic landscape, he fought off the glowing regeneration energy and fell to his knees, vowing that this time he would not live on and change into a new Doctor.”

The Beeb add: “This was declared ‘ridiculous’ by an approaching figure, who mocked the Doctor as he stepped forward through the snow to reveal himself as the very first incarnation of the Timelord (“The original, you might say”) just before the credits rolled. The story will continue at Christmas.”
There’s going to be no fighting for the remote control this Christmas because this could be something quite special.
