It’s Doctor Who Day – the 57th birthday of the sci-fi institution – and the BBC have marked the special occasion by revealing new details on the upcoming holiday special. We already knew that “Revolution of the Daleks” was bringing back the Time Lord’s pepperpot nemeses – it’s kind of in the title – but today we learned that John Barrowman is also returning as Captain Jack Harkness.
This revelation came via our first clip from the episode (see above), which features the immortal Time Agent reacting to the sound of the Tardis materializing. Though we’re still waiting on a full trailer and an actual release date, the BBC has treated us to the first poster for the special, which teases Jack and the “fam” – the Doctor’s friends, Yaz (Mandip Gill), Graham (Bradley Walsh) and Ryan (Tosin Cole) – versus the Daleks. Meanwhile, the Doctor herself (Jodie Whittaker) is stuck in space prison.
