There are rumors and signs that a spin-off is in the works, possibly 5 episodes for the first season and possibly filming sometime in the latter part of the year, maybe September. There are also rumors that Martha will head the spinoff but that's strictly in the rumor stage for now. It's not clear what the spinoff would be about, but rumors say something to do with UNIT. I'll report more when things become clearer

As posted in the Media thread, here's a preview for the upcoming Christmas special, presented during the Doctor Who panel at San Diego Comic Con yesterday:

Also during the panel, with showrunner Russell Davies and stars Ncuti Gatla and Millie Gibson, here are a few things said:

- Verada Sethu's (new companion for Season 2) name is Belinda Chandra

- As seen in the Christmas special preview, Nicola Coughlan will play a character named Joy

- Jonah Hauer-King will be part of Ruby's storyline in Season 2

- The outfit from Rogue is Ncuti's favorite costume so far

- Davies said there will be more music coming. In Season 2, there's an episode packed with music, though it's not a musical
