Whether you loved THAT twist or not, it’s impossible to deny that Chris Chibnall shook things up beyond what any of us ever considered possible. The Timeless Child arc saw the Doctor discover that they had their memory of their entire life before their “First” incarnation erased.

We all thought that William Hartnell's Doctor was the first, but we were wrong! Our hero was discovered by a scientist after being abandoned as a child. This scientist learned about the child’s regenerative capabilities and experimented on them, using that energy to transform the future of Gallifrey by creating the Time Lords.

This was one of the biggest shocks in the entire history of Doctor Who, and we’re still owed a lot of answers. For this to work properly, Chibnall needs to lean fully into the idea and explore the ramifications of this plot twist. Fans hope that Season Thirteen will see the Doctor on a mission to chase down the truth and explore these forgotten lives, because it would be pointless to let such a great concept go to waste.

We need answers and we need them now. Thankfully, it shouldn't be too long to wait.

Simon is a writer, cat dad and presenter of a geeky radio show with his husband. He loves Doctor Who (except 10 who can get in the bin…only joking.) He idolises Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Lara Croft and would 100% be a Sith Lord in a galaxy far, far away. He wishes life was like a musical so he’d actually be a good singer.
