Revolution Of The Daleks: Full Trailer For The New Festive Special

We've known for a while that John Barrowman would be back as Captain Jack Harkness for the next Doctor Who festive special, Revolution Of The Daleks. With the arrival of the full trailer, we also have an air date: New Year's Day.



For Revolution, Jodie Whittaker's Thirteenth Doctor remains where she was at the end of Series 12 – locked in a high security alien prison. Yaz (Mandip Gill), Ryan (Tosin Cole) and Graham (Bradley Walsh) have been carrying on with their lives, until they realize that a Dalek storm is brewing. But how do you fight Daleks without the Doctor? Although they have the help of Captain Jack, the holiday special will see the crew embarking on one of their most challenging adventures yet. Harriet Walter is on to play the Prime Minister (usually a problem for the Doc and co.), with Chris Noth as John Robertson (back from Series 11's Arachnids In The UK) and Nathan Stewart-Jarrett in an unknown role. Oh, and the metal marauders (plus, from the looks of its, their organic components) have also undergone a redesign.

"We’ve crammed this year’s Doctor Who special with an explosion of extraordinary acting talent," says executive producer Chris Chibnall. "Where else would you get British acting royalty, a globally renowned US screen star, an (inter)national treasure of stage and screen and one of Britain’s hottest young actors — just in the guest cast! Put those together with Jodie Whittaker, Bradley Walsh, Mandip Gill and Tosin Cole (and Daleks! Did I mention Daleks!) — and you get a cast to be exterminated for. And things will explode. Promise."

As mentioned, the special will hit screens on 1 January on BBC One in the UK and BBC America across the pond.
