'Doctor Who' 60th Anniversary Images Are a Jumble Of Specials

News about Ncuti Gatwa's first season of Doctor Who has been coming fast and furious of late, with regular updates on returning favorites and new guest stars, along with a flurry of speculation about what stories Season 14 might include. So much so that you might be forgiven for forgetting that there's a whole anniversary series of specials — with a completely different Doctor (sort of?) — to get through first. We haven't even really gotten much in the way of an update on the 60th anniversary since May when the titles of the three upcoming specials were announced.

Granted, part of that lack may be due to the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. In a normal year, it's almost certain that the series would have had splashy panels at both San Diego and New York Comic-Con, along with the subsequent flow of content that each would have spawned, including press interviews, new footage, and other sneak peeks. But, thanks to the fact that multiple studio bigwigs are still unwilling to pay their writers and performers fairly, we've been stuck with virtually nothing for months on end. (Thanks a lot, y'all!)

Thankfully, that seems as though it's finally about to change. With the series' anniversary now just over two months away, rumors are flying that a new trailer is about to be released at last and a quartet of new images, a mix for the three specials, dropped as part of Entertainment Weekly's annual Fall Preview issue, alongside a few choice pre-strike quotes from former (and returning) Doctor David Tennant (Good Omens), in which he described his return to the Whoniverse as "joyous".
