Doctor Who will be back for another series (Picture: BBC)

Series 10 of Doctor Who has been confirmed by the BBC.

The broadcaster announced that another series of the sci-fi show has been commissioned, in a way that didn’t involve the usual fanfare.

On page 32 of their Worldwide Annual Review under a section called Corporate Governance Report, paragraph 7 reads: ‘During the year matters under review included plans to launch the global genre brands BBC First in Australia and New Zealand on Foxtel and BBC Brit and BBC Earth in Poland; and investments in The Musketeers S3 and Doctor Who S10.’

A spokesman for the BBC has also confirmed the news to Radio Times.




Speaking of which, a trailer for the upcoming run, which guest stars Game Of Thrones’ Maisie Williams, premiered at Comic-Con earlier this month.

Peter Capaldi will be reprising his role as The Doctor, with Jenna Coleman returning as his trusty assistant Clara.
