Following Jodie Whittaker’s regeneration, there is a lot of space on which to tell new stories, and showrunner Russell T. Davies is back.

What To Expect From The Upcoming Season?
Despite filming since December 2022, “Doctor Who” season 14 is shrouded in mystery, but it promises some fascinating developments. The puzzle surrounding Mrs. Flood’s identity and her connection to Ruby Sunday will be among the many mysteries that “Doctor Who” season 14 promises to gently reveal during the episodes. The story will explore Ruby’s beginnings, going back to the church where she was left as a newborn and revealing details about her background.
In addition to exploring the Regency era and a Beatles-themed adventure from the 1960s, this season delves into unexplored territory and introduces a tonne of new creatures and villains. By delaying the introduction of iconic enemies like the Daleks and Cybermen, showrunner Russell T. Davies gives the Doctor and Ruby a new group of enemies to face off against, adding intrigue and surprise to their travels.
