"It was a moment!" Whittaker declared. "It was a very well kept secret."
Tennant added: "I've still got a recording of the phone call where I phoned Jodie to tell her that she was going to regenerate into me. I can't play that at this time in the morning!"
"What the... fill in the blank," Whittaker teased.
Elsewhere, Whittaker has returned to Doctor Who in audio form for a new series of Big Finish adventures with co-star Mandip Gill, who played companion Yasmin Khan.
