When news broke the upcoming season of Doctor Who would be showrunner Steven Moffat’s last and that Peter Capaldi would exit at the end of 2017, fans (rightfully so) got a little teary-eyed. But that doesn’t mean the show can’t give them a great send-off, and by the looks of a new trailer, it’s going to be one heck of a final ride.
BBC America dropped the latest trailer for the long-running series 10th season, highlighting new companion Bill Potts (played by Pearl Mackie).
In the brief clip, (titled “A Time for Heroes”) the Doctor, along with Potts and Matt Lucas’ Nardole, are walking through a library with lights exploding all around them. It doesn’t reveal too much regarding plot but may set the tone for the upcoming season. Mackie’s Potts does deliver some narration in the clip, describing the Doctor and what may be on the horizon:
“The first time you meet him, he’s funny. The second time, he’s amazing. The third time, you realize he’s the most dangerous man in the universe.He says he’s a man of peace, but he walks in war. I’m having the time of my life, and I wouldn’t miss it for the world… even if it kills me.”
Capaldi has said his final year of helming the TARDIS would be a spectacular one and by the looks of the trailer, he isn’t lying. The 10th season of Doctor Who premieres Saturday, April 15 at 9 p.m. ET on BBC America.
