Watch Jodie Whittaker in the Official ‘Doctor Who’ Trailer
It’s about time. We’ve been itching to get a good glimpse at the first featured woman in the Doctor Who series. “I’m the Doctor. When people need help, I never refuse,” the new Doctor says in the clip, which also features her new squad: Yasmin (Mandip Gill), Ryan (Tosin Cole), and Graham (Bradley Walsh).
She’s the Doctor.

It looks like this new season is taking on all new monsters with all new characters in an attempt to draw in more viewers. Incoming showrunner Chris Chibnall explains, “It doesn’t need an encyclopedic knowledge of Doctor Who to get into it. The wonderful thing about this is every time there’s new cast members, the show is regenerated in a literal sense with the character. New energy is brought into it.”
“If you’re a fan of the show already, it’s got everything you expect. It’s got fantastic new worlds. It’s also got worlds that we’re familiar with, but are maybe seen from different points of view. It honors everything that has gone before.”
Take a look at the trailer below.
Watch Doctor Who when it premieres October 7th on BBC America.
