Okay so the new season is in about ten days, I've been steering clear of most spoilers, but a few little bits that are worth noting before then:
-This will be both Peter Capaldi and Stephen Moffat's last year. We don't yet know who the next Doctor is after Capaldi (don't get excited because this is never accurate, but to some the frontrunner is Tilda Swinton), but Chris Chibnaill is going to be taking over from Moffat as showrunner. He'll be taking a more writers-room approach than has been done in the past for Who, which should help reduce the issues with Chibnaill's writing that came about particularly in his Torchwood work.
-According to the actress, the new companion is going to be openly gay. So that's cool!
-Spoilery reveal for for some later-season stuff: Possibly as a going-away present to Peter Capaldi, we are getting a two-parter with O.G. Mondas Cybermen. As in the stocking-masked, wearing-air-conditioning, 'older than Murphy's avatar' versions of the Cybermen..
And in other news, Americans here should look into the Britbox streaming service, which is going to have the largest ever archive of instant-streaming Classic Who. Personally that's everything I've ever wanted from a streaming service, but it hasn't touched down in Australia yet so I'm very jealous.
