A new trailer for the DoctorWho season 9 collection brings classic Companion Jo Grant back in live-action! 👀😄 Could a spinoff be coming her way? 😯🤔
A delightful trailer for the latest Doctor Who box set has brought back classic companion Jo Grant . The world's longest-running science-fiction TV series, Doctor Who is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year. Most of the focus is understandably on the future - one that involves three specials featuring David Tennant and Catherine Tate, and will then star Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson as the Fourteenth Doctor and Ruby Sunday.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY The BBC has confirmed the much-anticipated release of the Doctor Who season 9 collection, starring Jon Pertwee as the Third Doctor and Katy Manning as companion Jo Grant. Manning already returned as Jo in Doctor Who's Centenary Special last year, part of a support group for former companions. The release trailer for the Doctor Who season 9 collection reveals Jo is still traveling the globe, working to protect every inhabitant of Earth. It's a delightful story, one that shows her protecting a Sea Devil infant; according to Jo, climate change is disrupting Sea Devil nesting habits, leading to them coming onland.
In-universe, Jo left the Doctor after she fell in love with an environmental activist. Manning reprized the role in The Sarah Jane Adventures, revealing she'd become something of a globe-trotting adventurer in her own right. She was deeply upset the Doctor had never visited her, but he settled the matter by admitting he'd never been able to track her down - she traveled too much.
It's interesting to speculate whether the Doctor Who season 9 collection also helps set up a potential spinoff. Manning's enduring popularity, as well as the interesting status quo, means such an approach would be ideal; the trailer even gives a nod to previous companion spinoff The Sarah Jane Adventures. Russell T Davies is expected to expand the so-called "Whoniverse" during his second tenure as showrunner, and it would be thrilling to see more of Manning.
