Giving Blake Harrison some stiff competition in the familiar faces category, here we have actor Kevin McNally, who is seen in a brief shot towards the end of the trailer.

Though the Brit has a long list of credits including The Crown, Downton Abbey, Supernatural, and Life On Mars, he's best-known for portraying Mr. Gibbs, Captain Jack Sparrow's trusted ally in the Pirates Of The Caribbean film series.

As is the case with Harrison, details about McNally's character haven't yet been divulged, but due to the serialised format of Series 13, it's possible we'll see him in more than one episode.

Danny has been with WhatCulture for almost nine years, and is currently Doctor Who Editor and WhoCulture Channel Manager, overseeing all of WhatCulture's Whoniverse coverage. He has been writing and video editing for 10+ years, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers and uploading them to YouTube (they're admittedly a bit rusty by today's standards). If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order or to tell you about the making of 1988's Remembrance of the Daleks, Danny is the person to ask.
