Doctor Who’s new “multi-platform adventure” starring Jo Martin confirms start date

by

Get ready for more Doctor Who! The premiere date for “Circuit Breaker,” featuring Jo Martin as the Fugitive Doctor, has been announced.

The adventure, which will unfold across many different formats like books, magazines, audio dramas from Big Finish, content on the UNIT website, and games from East Side Games, starts on June 25th.

The story will unfold as one continuous, intensifying mystery, revealed through different media releases, each offering new hints and information.

Recent photos of Ncuti Gatwa as the Doctor have revealed the new appearance of the Fifteenth Doctor, also known as the Fugitive Doctor. Gatwa announced that filming for the episode, titled ‘Space Babies,’ has officially begun!

I’m thrilled fans will get to experience a new adventure with the Fugitive Doctor! You might even see a softer, more vulnerable side to her – believe it or not, she has one! I’m excited to share a first glimpse of her updated costume.

Deep within UNIT’s top-secret Black Archive, strange things are happening. Objects from different times and places are appearing, radiating a dangerous energy that could destroy reality as we know it.

This isn’t a typical crisis, and this Doctor is unlike any they’ve seen before. Facing classic foes like the Daleks, Cybermen, Sontarans, and a dangerous Weeping Angel, she must complete a crucial mission while a hidden threat watches from the darkness.
