At last, the wait has ended! Starting this weekend, Doctor Who will be back on your screens for Season 15, and over the coming weeks, you’ll get to see eight fresh episodes unfold.
Ncuti Gatwa’s second stint in the TARDIS appears poised for another thrilling series of adventures for this cherished sci-fi program. Upcoming episodes will showcase a fresh wave of talented guest stars such as Alan Cumming, Freddie Fox, Kadiff Kirwan, Charlie Condou, Christopher Chung, Rose Ayling-Ellis, and most recently, Graham Norton.
However, the action begins this week with the season premiere titled “The Robot Revolution.” In it, we’ll meet Belinda Chandra, played by Varada Sethu, who is rumored to be a strong character not afraid to confront the Doctor. This Time Lord will have a new companion in Belinda.
Indeed, it used to be straightforward to keep track of the airing schedule for Doctor Who in past seasons. However, things got a bit more complex last season as episodes started appearing on BBC iPlayer before they aired on traditional television.
If you’re curious about when the next episodes of the series will air, here’s all you need to know. This includes a comprehensive schedule for the entire season so you can plan your viewing accordingly.
When is Doctor Who season 15 episode 1, The Robot Revolution, out?
The opening episode of this season is set for release on Saturday, 12th April. You can start streaming it on BBC iPlayer as early as 8am in the morning, before it airs on BBC One at 6:50pm the same evening.
Instead of following last year’s trend where episodes appeared on BBC iPlayer at midnight, this year’s pattern is different. This means that fans no longer need to stay up late on Friday nights to catch the episodes immediately; they can watch them at a more convenient time.
For the remainder of this season, you can expect new episodes to air every Saturday morning at 8am, preceding their evening broadcast later in the day. Please note that while the specific start time on BBC One might shift a bit throughout the series, the general schedule remains consistent with the morning release.

The Doctor, my newfound ally, embarks on an unforgettable interstellar journey, aiming to return our dear Belinda safely to the comforts of Earth.
