The new season of Doctor Who will apparently begin in September.

Responding to a fan‘s enquiry on Twitter about when the show will return, producer Nikki Wilson commented earlier today: “We’ll be back in September.”

Wilson also teased: “#DoctorWho is even bigger and better this year.”

Season 9 will kick off with a two-parter written by Steven Moffat, titled ‘The Magician’s Apprentice’ and ‘The Witch’s Familiar’. The episodes will feature the return of Michelle Gomez as Missy.

Last year’s Season 8 launched on Saturday 23 August on BBC One with ‘Deep Breath’.
