Doctor Who

“Unlike the Doctor, I may only have one heart, but I am giving it all to this show,” says Ncuti Gatwa – the Fifteenth Doctor Who! In this edition, we meet new the Time Lord, who won fans with his breakout role on Sex Education, and who experienced periods of homelessness in his twenties. And we take the TARDIS on a time-travelling adventure across 60 years of Doctor Who, the sci-fi show that continues to enthral Whovians across the universe.
