Oh, it's been an arid year for us Doctor Who fans. With no Series Ten until April 2017, we've been starved for new material. Thankfully, the wait will be over next month when Class arrives - bringing the Doctor with it, for a special guest appearance!
And OF COURSE the Doctor is in the first episode of Class. What did you THINK we were going to do? #ClassDW— Patrick Ness (@Patrick_Ness) September 23, 2016
We also now know that the show will premiere on 22nd October, with the first two episodes arriving on the online BBC Three channel (via BBC IPlayer). Here are the two episode titles:
And here's a new promo image to boot. Nice to know the show will be taking Doctor Who's place as compulsory Saturday night viewing.
From left to right, we have Vivian Oparah, Greg Austin, Katherine Kelly, Sophie Hopkins and Fady Elsayed. A lot of info is still tightly under wraps about the show but we do know that Austin is playing Charlie, Kelly is Miss Quill and Hopkins is April. Austin has also described his character as the "leader" in a Q+A on the official Class Facebook page, which suggests he is the main character. A fact sort of supported by the poster above. This is a bit of a surprise, as previous photos have focussed on Hopkin's character, which would also make sense considering Class's big inspiration - Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Only a month to go until the Doctor's back on our screens! Until then, Class dismissed.
