Up until recently, all the news related to Doctor Who concerned whatever Russell T Davies is up to for 2023 rather than what Chris Chibnall was up for his big finale with Jodie Whitaker for 2022.
All we know about the big Doctor Who special celebrating the BBC's Centenary was that it would be 90 minutes long coming our way in October and it's gonna be epic.
And that nugget of info came from... Russell T Davies. That's right, we heard more from RTD than from Chris Chibnall about Chibnall's own production.
Whatever embargo there was on Doctor Who's Centenary special lifted a bit last week with the release of a new issue of Doctor Who Magazine that announced the title of the special would be "The Power of the Doctor".
And we know about the cast joining Jodie Whitaker for her last go round as the Doctor. In addition to the Doctor's current companions Yasmin "Yaz" Khan (Mandip Gill) and Dan Lewis (John Bishop), classic companions Ace (Sophie Aldred) and Tegan Jovanka (Janet Fielding) are set to make a comeback.
Sacha Dhawan's Master is also confirmed to return, along with the Cybermen and the Daleks.
Jemma Redgrave will be reprising her role as Kate Stewart and Jacob Anderson will be returning as Inston-Vee Vinder.

| Here we have Jodie in the recurring orange space suit that I seriously hopes gets fumigated between regenerations. |
Jodie's Doctor will be regenerating in this special but regenerating into who is a big question.
While Ncuti Gatwa has been cast as the 14th Doctor, we've seen David Tennant on the set of Doctor Who doing whatever the hell RTD is up to for Doctor Who's 60th anniversary.
Could Jodie regenerate into David Tennant (with a classic Tennant look of shock and an accompanying "What?")?
Well, we will have to wait until...
Damn it! Something else we still don't know. We know the special is coming in October but there is no release date as of yet.
