Fans of Doctor Who are in for a treat! The new spin-off, The War Between the Land and the Sea, created by Russell T Davies, will premiere in just a few weeks with two episodes airing back-to-back. The entire five-episode series will be released next month.
Russell Tovey plays Barclay in this show, a regular employee at UNIT who finds himself facing a huge challenge when an old, dangerous race emerges from the ocean.
The cast also includes acclaimed actors Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Jemma Redgrave, and Ruth Madeley, joining Alexander Devrient and Colin McFarlane.

The BBC revealed today that the first two episodes will premiere on Sunday, December 7th, at 8:30pm on both BBC One and iPlayer.
Davies expressed excitement about the show’s launch during a busy time for television, adding that all five episodes will be available as a complete set perfect for watching during the Christmas holidays.

Viewers outside of the initial release countries will be able to stream the show on Disney+ in 2026.
Russell Davies recently announced that a Christmas special of Doctor Who is scheduled for 2026, solidifying the show’s future.
We were all a bit worried about the future of the show, but thankfully it’s been confirmed that even though Disney is stepping away, the BBC is still completely dedicated to keeping it going. That’s a huge relief!
Lindsay Salt, the BBC’s Director of Drama, confirmed the BBC’s ongoing commitment to Doctor Who, a hugely popular show. She also announced that Russell T Davies will be writing another special Christmas episode, planned for 2026.
Fans can rest assured – the Doctor will be back! We’ll be sharing details about the next series soon, and the TARDIS will continue to be a key part of the BBC.

In a surprising season finale moment last May, Ncuti Gatwa, who currently plays the Doctor, appeared to transform into Billie Piper’s character.
Piper has always been open about her affection for the show and expressed a desire to reprise her role within the ‘Doctor Who’ universe, sharing that some of her fondest professional memories were made there.
Getting the chance to return to the TARDIS was an offer I couldn’t pass up. As for the details – who’s involved, how it happens, why, and when – you’ll have to wait and find out!
