Series 13 is an upcoming series of Doctor Who. Chris Chibnall remains as executive producer, whilst Jodie Whittaker has confirmed she is returning as the Thirteenth Doctor[1] along with Mandip Gill as Yasmin Khan.[2]

Unusually, the series was announced as being "in the works" by Chibnall on 21 November 2019, a little over a month before the previous series began airing.[3]

In May 2017, it was announced that due to the terms of a deal between BBC Worldwide and SMG Pictures in China, the company has first right of refusal on the purchase for the Chinese market of past and future series and spin-offs of the programme.[4][5]

In October 2019, it was revealed that due to the show heading to HBO Max, the network had struck a deal for additional series of the programme.[6]

Whittaker briefly mentioned her return in Doctor Who Magazine on 9 December 2019, a little under a month before series 12.[1] She later spoke about it publicly to Entertainment Weekly on 22 January 2020.[7]

It continued the ongoing storyline surrounding the Doctor's past and the Timeless Child.[8]
