Joining Jodie Whittaker's Doctor, and companions Yaz, Ryan and Graham in festive episode Resolution, are Mitch, played by Indian Summers' Nikesh Patel, and Lin, AKA Call the Midwife's Charlotte Ritchie.

Although we don't know much else about the pair as yet, it seems from the shot below that they're reasonably close – they're holding hands, after all – and while they and the Tardis Team are looking at the usually friendly police box, their expressions suggest all is not well...

There's also the matter of the Doctor using an old-school microphone in the Tardis console room. Maybe related, maybe just a bit of karaoke during some downtime.
