Doctor Who and Torchwood stars return for spinoff War Between The Land And The Sea

BBG News

As a long-time Whovian with a soft spot for Torchwood and a deep appreciation for the rich tapestry of characters that populate these universes, I can hardly contain my excitement for “The War Between The Land And The Sea“. It’s like a reunion dinner party I’ve been waiting years to attend, and the BBC just sent out the invites!

Stars from the shows Doctor Who and Torchwood are set to reappear in the upcoming spinoff series titled The Battle Between Land and Sea.

On Friday, August 23rd, I’m thrilled to share that I, as a fan, will once again step into the TARDIS as Ruth Madeley does! She’s returning to her role from the 60th anniversary specials, bringing UNIT fixer Shirley Ann Bingham back to life on Doctor Who.

Apart from that, here’s another exciting piece of news! The showrunner for “Doctor Who,” Russell T Davies, is also planning to reprise Colin McFarlane as General Pierce. Originally, he played this American military commander in the 2009 miniseries titled “Torchwood: Children of Earth.”

As a gaming enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that two familiar faces are back in the game, joining the stellar cast of Doctor Who once again. I’m talking about none other than Jemma Redgrave and Alexander Devrient, reprising their roles as Kate Lethbridge-Stewart from UNIT and Colonel Ibrahim respectively. It’s a pleasure to see them back on our screens!

Previously featured actors Russell Tovey and Gugu Mbatha-Raw will headline “The War Between The Land And The Sea,” with each portraying entirely fresh characters.

Davis shared on Instagram that the cast is set for the upcoming series: “On the eve of battle, we welcome back: Jemma Redgrave as Kate Lehbridge-Stewart, Ruth Madeley as Shirley Anne Bingham, Alexander Devrient as Colonel Christofer Ibrahim, and Colin McFarlane as General August Pierce. The latter, a character previously seen in Torchwood: Children of Earth, is now at the helm of a larger conflict.”

However, at what price…? CENTRE: Russell Tovey and Gugu Mbatha-Raw feature as…, though you’ll need to stay tuned for more details. THE STRUGGLE BETWEEN THE LAND AND THE SEA, a 5-episode mini-series, produced by BBC & Disney+. We can hardly wait, with even more cast members to be announced!

In the story titled “The War Between The Land And The Sea“, the narrative unfolds with UNIT taking on a defensive role as an imposing, ancient creature rises from the sea – a creature that’s said to be none other than the legendary monsters known from Doctor Who, the Sea Devils.

Earlier this week, it was affirmed by Davies that preparations for his Doctor Who spinoff series were progressing, as he posted an image from a script reading session on Instagram.

“Day One. The war begins. Readthrough day for all 5 episodes of THE WAR BETWEEN THE LAND AND THE SEA,” he wrote on Instagram. “So much excitement. What a cast! Thrills, deaths, chases, fish, and seven seas of danger. Can’t wait!”

Next year, “The Battle of Land and Sea” is set to be broadcast on BBC in the United Kingdom, while viewers worldwide can catch it on Disney+.

The British TV show called “Doctor Who” is broadcasted on BBC One within the United Kingdom, while it can be found on Disney+ internationally. In the UK, you can access classic episodes of “Doctor Who” through BBC iPlayer.
