Overview
In DWM 596, script editor Scott Handcock cryptically referred to an August kick-off meeting for something called "TOTT". Fans speculated over what this acronym could stand for, with the most popular suggestion being "Tales of the TARDIS". Tales of the TARDIS was then officially announced on 30 October, 2023
Russell T Davies clarified on Instagram that, though the BBC and Bad Wolf had struck a production and distribution deal with Disney Branded Television for new episodes of Doctor Who, there are currently no plans to bring TOTT to Disney+, with "no Disney money" being involved in the series's production. For the time being, the series will be exclusively avaiable in the UK via BBC iPlayer.
