Doctor Who’sRussell T. Davies Returns to Showrun in Season 14

Russel T. Davies , showrunner of the modernDoctor Whoreturn in 2005 has just been announced to be returning once more to top the show in 2023 , replacing anexiting Chris Chibnall .

Well , this is quite the surprisal . TheBBCjust put up an announcement on the Doctor Who website . “ Russell T Davies will make an explosive return to screens to celebrate the 60th day of remembrance of Doctor Who in 2023 , and series beyond , ” the mail take . “ Responsible for Doctor Who ’s revitalisation in 2005 , he is credit with propelling the show into a global phenomenon and making it one of TV ’s with child hitting .

The Doctor won the state ’s warmheartedness through his masterful relaunch , which led him to create two twisting off series , Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures during that clip . ”

aboveboard , as someone who enjoyed a lot of Davies ’ incumbency , this has left me quite speechless . For a show as reform-minded as the long - run sci - fi series — and arrive off series featuring Jodie Whittaker and Jo Martin as the MD — going back in meter to a previous showrunner seems like a vast stumble . Whether you liked his body of work or not , I think most Whovians would hold this was an opportunity to breathe new life sentence into the series , specially on its 60th day of remembrance .

“ breaking wind of change . ” Hysterical .
