Welcome to the TARDIS… was a televised minisode that teased the introduction of Dan Lewis and his future meeting of the Thirteenth Doctor. It was broadcast immediately after Revolution of the Daleks.
Publisher's summary
The Thirteenth Doctor and Yaz are set to welcome a new face to the TARDIS later this year as actor and comedian John Bishop as Dan.
Plot
In a suburban area of Liverpool, Dan Lewis's friend reads Dan his horoscope, telling him that "Aries, surprises lie in store this year, the colour blue will be important, and the letter D. Your lucky number is thirteen, be prepared for action, and what ever hurdles come your way, just remember, it's not the end of the world". As his friend finishes, Dan closes his van, turns, and smiles.
