Whovians, assemble! Just last week, we got our first look at Alan Cumming's new Whoniverse villain Mr. Ring-a-Ding as the BBC confirmed a mid-April release date for Doctor Who Season 2 — and now this past weekend has brought with it a brand spanking new trailer for Russell T. Davies' second rodeo as showrunner on the world's longest running sci-fi series. For a tantalising look at Fifteenth Doctor Ncuti Gatwa's upcoming adventures in time and space, featuring new companion Belinda Chandra (Varada Sethu), still-pretty-new companion Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson), and a whole bunch of guest stars (Jonah Hauer-King! Christopher Chung! Rylan!), check out the latest teaser below;

Giant animate dinosaur skeletons? Check. Talk of "deadly games" over shots of a potentially murderous children's cartoon as it bursts out of a cinema screen? Check. An... interstellar riff on the Eurovision Song Contest hosted by Rylan Clarke and a cat lady? Triple check.

A new companion has entered the Tardis as Doctor Who returns for Season 2.

In the first trailer for the sophomore season of the BBC and Disney+’s latest reboot of the sci-fi franchise, Ncuti Gatwa’s The Doctor is joined by Belinda Chandra (Varada Sethu), who aptly notes that she’ll go by ‘The Nurse’ in response to her new pal’s introduction.

“There is something already connecting us,” he tells her as we get a glimpse of Belinda in another time and place, where she’s an intergalactic soldier.

This season follows the pair on an epic quest to get Belinda back to Earth. But a mysterious force is stopping their return and the time-traveling Tardis team must face great dangers, ferocious enemies and wilder terrors than ever before.

The Doctor teases, “There are forces beyond this universe. We think we are so clever, but we are like children.
