10 Things Every Doctor Who Fan Does When A New Doctor Is Announced

8. Pore Over Every Interview For Clues

RTD and Ncuti Gatwa's brief red carpet interview at the BAFTAs has already been pored over in forensic detail for clues as to what the new series will be like. Russell and Ncuti gave nothing away, other than their unwavering enthusiasm for both Jodie Whittaker, and what was coming next.

What came across from Ncuti was just what an affable and engaging personality he was, and gives the impression that fans will be in for some great interviews on the promotion trail, as well as a brilliant Doctor performance.

The most interesting thing about the interview was RTD's admission that he'd been seeding misinformation. Is RTD admitting to being the culprit behind those David Tennant and Hugh Grant rumours? The future and past showrunner remains tight-lipped about exactly what misinformation he did spread, but RTD's mischievousness will make for some fun speculation as fans pore over every word out of his mouth between now and 2023.
