David Tennant talks DoctorWho returns: 'It might've felt awkward.'

David Tennant will return as the Doctor for the 60th anniversary of Doctor Who, and he admits the possibility that his return to the series could have been a little off. Tennant appeared on The Morning as part of the launch of ITV's new ITVX streaming platform. He primarily talked about Litvinenko, the miniseries in which he plays Alexander Litvinenko, the former Russian Federal Security Service agent who defected to the United Kingdom and died of poisoning in 2006.

When will Doctor Who return?Doctor Who will return with three 60th anniversary specials in November 2023 with Tennant as the Fourteenth Doctor. Catherine Tate will also return as former companion Donna Noble. Doctor Who Season 14, which began filming last week, will follow with Ncuti Gatwa as the Fifteenth Doctor and Millie Gibson as companion Ruby Sunday.

"I love this show, and this is the best of both worlds – with the vision and joy of the BBC and Disney+ together we can launch the TARDIS all around the planet, reaching a new generation of fans while keeping our traditional home firmly on the BBC in the UK," returning showrunner Russell T. Davies said in a press release. Davies previously expressed his belief that Doctor Who should be a franchise with multiple shows similar to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

'Prepping for the role of the Doctor and watching all the episodes again and watching Russel T. Davies and David [Tennant]’s work.' Just make your own, new, show instead of desecrating someone else's legacy even more. better prepare for a decrease in viewers. Makes sense, having that knowledge to work off of likely will help a lot when accounting for changes RTD will make for his new one. Also catching up on THE LORE, at least the lore that likely will be most relevant to the role considering RTD is showrunner again.
