A New Year Special is a (currently) rare special episode in the Doctor Who series which typically airs on the 1 January of the year following a season/series of the show.
As of yet, two episodes are New Year Specials.
Showrunner Chris Chibnall made the decision to cut the yearly tradition of the Christmas Special, which had been ongoing since the relaunch in 2005, in favour of this special.
However, the very first episode to premiere on 1 January was "Volcano", very nominally the eighth part of the 1965-1966 serial The Daleks' Master Plan.
List of New Year Specials
- 1966 - "Volcano" (season 3)
- 1972 - Day of the Daleks (episode 1; season 9)
- 1977 - The Face of Evil (episode 1; season 14)
- 2010 - The End of Time: Part Two (series 4)
- 2019 - Resolution (series 11)
