If the BBC and Disney+ sacking date indicated by the trailer is accurate , then it is astonishingly before long and indeed comes just two months after the metre the mystifier premiered . It also means that the serial is set to riposte just four month after the 2024 Christmas special , which itself publicize roughly six months after theDoctor Whoseason 14 finalepremiered on June 22 , 2024 . Overall , the hiatus between season will last less than a year , which marksthe shortest hiatus since the waiting between 2007 ’s time of year 3 and 2008 ’s season 4lasted just nine months and six daytime .

Since 2023 , Disney+ has handled distribution ofDoctor Whooutside of the United Kingdom and Ireland .

While this particular date means that the show will potentially be espouse up on theDoctor Whoseason 14 endingsooner than expected , it seems like an unusual time for it to premiere . Disney+ will be premiering season 2 of their well - regardedStar WarsseriesAndorjust 10 day later , and it seems unlikely that they would want to flood the market with two of their biggest science fable IPs at the same clock time .
