DOCTOR WHO CHRISTMAS SPECIAL
The Return of Doctor Mysterio
BBC America has debuted a first sneak peek at Doctor Who’s upcoming superhero-themed Christmas Special “The Return of Doctor Mysterio” during the BBC’s annual Children In Need telethon (in the UK).
The nearly 3-minute-long clip features Peter Capaldi — who’s
obviously back in top shape as the Twelfth Doctor — as well as Matt
Lucas as Nardole, who was last seen with his head separated from his
body in last year’s Yuletide special “The Husbands of River Song.” Lucas
is said to be a regular presence in Season 10 when the show returns in
the spring of 2017. And although that’s great news in and of itself, I’m
really just glad to see Nardole back in one piece! Phewwww!
The special taking place in New York City will also introduced Charity Wakefield in the role of Lois Lane a
fearless reporter, and Justin Chadwick as a super-strong, bullet-proof
Superman-like superhero. Here’s an official description of the Xmas
episode:
The Doctor, played by Peter Capaldi,
teams up with an investigative journalist, played by Charity Wakefield
(Wolf Hall, The Player) and a superhero to save New York from a deadly
alien threat. Matt Lucas (Bridesmaids, Little Britain) returns to the
series as Nardole and Justin Chatwin (Orphan Black, Shameless) joins the
cast in a guest starring role as Grant.
“The Return of Doctor Mysterio” is penned by showrunner Steven Moffat
and will debut on the BBC, BBC America and Space on Christmas Day.
