Doctor Who series 10 premiere time confirmed
The Doctor finally returns to TV screens with new companion Pearl Mackie in tow
After a Doctor Who free 2016 (minus the Christmas Special, obviously) Peter Capaldi finally returns to the Tardis for a full series on Easter Saturday, with a new companion and plenty of new adventures in space and time awaiting him.
Series 10 marks Steven Moffat's final year at the helm of the sci-fi series and it's sure to be a memorable swansong from the veteran writer.
