Following the jaw-dropping cliffhanger of Doctor Who’s season 15, creator Russell T Davies expresses excitement about the upcoming spin-off titled The War Between the Land and the Sea, deeming it to be simply magnificent.
Information is gradually surfacing regarding the upcoming spin-off series. This new show will focus on UNIT’s efforts to halt a worldwide peril triggered by the reappearance of renowned enemies from Doctor Who, the Sea Devils.
Showrunner Davies has expressed great pride over the five-part series, stating that he believes it’s outstanding and remarkably similar to having a solid concept in mind.
On the Pilot TV podcast, he commented, “At times, when we complete a series, they say, ‘Excellent, well done, we’ve done a fantastic job.’
Occasionally, the content undergoes a phase known as post-processing, during which all aspects are incorporated. This is where you focus on enhancing special effects, selecting music, and adjusting its color and brightness.
Occasionally, something extraordinary occurs, and that’s exactly what’s happening here. It’s even surpassing our initial expectations! I’m absolutely thrilled about it.

Originally, it was believed that The War Between would premiere prior to the year’s end in 2025, but as per Davies, a definitive release date remains unconfirmed. This implies there might be a delay, and our wait could stretch beyond our initial expectations.
In this production, Gugu Mbatha-Raw takes on the role of Salt, a Sea Devil character, while Russell Tovey portrays a man named Barclay.
In addition, they will be accompanied by distinguished UNIT veterans Jemma Redgrave (playing Kate Steart), Alexander Devrient (as Colonel Ibrahim), and Ruth Madeley (portraying Shirley Bingham).
As a devoted fan of Doctor Who, I find myself eagerly waiting for Disney to make up their mind on whether we’ll get more seasons of this iconic sci-fi show. Recent remarks by Davies have added an element of uncertainty to our anticipation.
In the initial television conversation, Davies emphasized that no updates were available regarding the show at that moment. However, it’s worth noting that the CEO of BBC Studios, Tom Fussell, had earlier expressed confidence in their continued dedication to the series, stating that the BBC remains “very much committed” to it.
The War Between the Land and the Sea will air on BBC One on BBC iPlayer.
