With Disney+ becoming the new home to new episodes of “Doctor Who” outside the UK, the series is reportedly set to get a budgetary and creative makeover.

The Telegraph reports that while showrunner Russell T Davies will retain the overall creative vision for the programme, Disney will give the show vast budgets well beyond the BBC’s means to allow for more cinematic production values and stars.

However, the actual figure amounts are “commercially sensitive” and haven’t been revealed. The series has grown a cult following despite limited budgets over the years and now is sounds like the Mouse House is planning to let it compete at blockbuster levels.

In addition, Disney will reportedly have a say in creative decisions for the show under the terms of the co-production deal made with the BBC whom will retain ultimate editorial control of future series – therefore, the tone and content won’t deviate dramatically from canon.

The public service broadcaster also retains intellectual property rights, so Disney will be unable to produce spin-offs of other material based on the concept.
wait, is She Hulk's CGI vastly better than the BBC's Doctor Who CGI?

They look like Grenson boots. British company that produced quality boots for years then sold out and produced all their shit in India while still charging “Handmade in Britain” prices.

Doc Martens did the same thing, but in China and Thailand I believe. Now you can pay more to make sure the pair you buy is from the U.K.

They are being very coy about it. Since we know the 15th doctor will have an Xmas episode as his debut that points to the 60th anniversary itself being possibly the final of the three. So probably three dates in Oct / Nov?

I grew up watching Doctor Who. Always loved it... until they introduced the cunt. Haven't watched it since.

See anything with show dates? All I can find is 'fall'.

"Three specials are set to be aired in November 2023, marking Doctor Who's 60th anniversary.[5][42] In October 2022, the BBC and Disney Branded Television announced that the specials would be the first Doctor Who episodes to be released internationally on Disney+, while continuing to be aired on BBC One in the United Kingdom."
