It should be remembered that Russell T. Davies, producer who led the revival of the “Doctor Who” series in 2005, will return to production as a showrunner, starting in the year 2023.

His return coincides with the series’ 60th anniversary, but the network has already said Davies will remain involved in the new seasons.

And through an official statement, the producer celebrated his return to the television saga, praising the work of Chris Chibnall. At the time, he still believed that until 2023 he would remain a keen spectator.

“I’m really excited to be able to come back to my favorite series. But we’ve been traveling way too fast and there’s a whole series with Jodie Whittaker’s brilliant doctor that I can enjoy with my friend and hero Chris Chibnall in charge – I’m still a spectator at the moment.

Check out the synopsis for the next cycle:

She is back. The 13th Doctor returns for the 13th season of the series which will feature six episodes.
