This one has a little less of the timey wimey temporal paradoxes than the Disney trailer a week ago, but it still manages to span a wide section of time and (relative dimensions in) space.

We get a bit more of Jinkx Monsoon here, another Bridgerton name check — and I think we can confirm the Doctor taking the mic for another song and dance sequence in the 1960s… All fun and games on a background of some apocalyptic, spacey wacey goings on. Honestly, the Doctor’s promise to Ruby’s mum that he can keep her safe is starting to sound a little strained.

The season episode titles have also been released:

  1. Space Babies
  2. The Devil’s Chord
  3. Boom
  4. 73 Yards
  5. Dot and Bubble
  6. Rogue
  7. The Legend of Ruby Sunday
  8. Empire of Death

Other notes:

  • Episodes 1 and 2 will air on the same day, 11 May.
  • Episode 2 seems to be the one featuring Monsoon as a musically themed baddie.
  • Episode 3 is penned by Steven Moffat, and RTD has given the cryptic teaser “Antelope. Moment. Drums.” The director of the episode adds “Hitchcockian” as the writer’s cue to her.
  • Episode 6 is our Regency period story, written by Kate Herron and Briony Redman (both coming off Loki, so anybody want to bet they have their time travel right?)
