RTD Promises Annual Doctor Who Series, No Gap Years After 2023

One of the things Doctor Who has suffered from over the past several years is a very inconsistent TV schedule, but it sounds like those lengthy gaps will be a thing of the past after 2023.

Showrunner Russell T Davies has promised a return to a regular annual TV schedule from 2023, much like how things were in his first era.

Speaking in the new issue of Doctor Who Magazine, Davies said: “We’re working hard to close those gaps.”

He continued: “It takes a while to get the empire in shape, but that’s a serious plan: annual Doctor Who, no gap years, lots of content, on and on and on. Yes please!”

RTD also confirmed 8-episode series and 1 Christmas special every year.
