And I say this as someone who liked Ten! Rusty needs to Let It Go! And also this does such a disservice not just to Jodie but also to Ncuti Gatwa!

David Tennant and Catherine Tate are back for the 60th anniversary.
Apparently David Tennant is being billed as the 14th Doctor with Ncuti Gatwa as the 15th Doctor? I am so confused right now haha
(Edited to remove spoilers from the title whoops)

Also, I hate this move. It makes it seem like they think casting Jodie as 13 was a huge mistake and that they have to earn back fan approval by giving them the most popular Nu Who Doctor.

Looks like it's just a three-episode special, though. by

Given something like this was foreshadowed by the Curator, it's just a brief special, and DW does "let's bring back past Doctors" for specials on the regular, why does it being a regeneration make it insulting instead of fun?
Especially since we know literally nothing about the story right now. It could be a dream, or some other shenanigans, just to mess with our heads. I mean, isn't Donna at risk of death if she ever meets the Doctor again? So if she's involved, there must be shenanigans afoot, right? Not that DW doesn't play fast and loose with its own lore, but that doesn't exactly argue against my point. {= P

If it was 10 getting dragged out of the past by something else, I could understand that. I don't know if I like the whole "14th Doctor" thing. Hopefully Rusty's just trolling...
