Ungone was excellent, Jodie was excellent - as were Maxine Peake and Ana da Silva, but Jodie’s ability to jump between accents is brilliant. For a radio play style format, they did some amazing things with the physicality!

Comic book cover with the BBC Doctor Who logo at the top, above the stylized title "CIRCUIT BREAKER" in metallic blue lettering with circuit board details. In the center, the Fugitive Doctor, portrayed by Jo Martin, sits perched on top of her TARDIS, a classic British blue police box. She looks down with a confident smile, wearing a dark fedora, a long dark coat over a double-breasted waistcoat, and a bright yellow ascot. In her left hand, she holds a piece of technology used to return items to their proper time streams that is cylindrical and has a handle, which is pointed downward. The top windows of the TARDIS glow with a warm yellow light. Thick, vibrant green alien tentacles curl and twist up from behind and around the sides of the police box against a stark white background with small pink splatters. This is Issue 2 Cover C, with Art by Kit Wallis.

Doctor Who: Circuit Breaker producer confirms why Fugitive Doctor has a sonic screwdriver after fan confusion

Doctor Who's brand-new sonic screwdriver announcement has caused a right kerfuffle (yep, that's the technical term) in the fandom. Ad Currently, the Fugitive Doctor (Jo Martin) is taking centre stage with Circuit Breaker, a new multi-platform adventure. This week, it was revealed that she has an all-new sonic screwdriver, with Martin showing off the details in a video on the show's socials (including how it honours Patrick Troughton's Second Doctor). But some fans have been left a little confused as to why the Fugitive Doctor has a sonic screwdriver considering, in Doctor Who's incredibly timey-wimey lore, her incarnation is before William Hartnell's First Doctor. The First Doctor didn't have a sonic screwdriver, with the iconic tool only being introduced with Troughton's Second Doctor. That's led to plenty of speculation from fans, including some who have argued that the Fugitive Doctor is better placed after the Second Doctor, while others have suggested that the Fugitive Doctor wielding a sonic screwdriver doesn't break the show's canon at all. To get to the bottom of it, Radio Times chatted to James Page, Brand Manager of the Doctor Who at BBC Studios, and producer of Doctor Who: Circuit Breaker. Want to see this content?

"But in Circuit Breaker, she finds herself working alongside two UNIT scientists, Osgood and Andrew, who idolise the Doctor and encourage her to approach problems more like the incarnations they know. "That creates a tension between the three: the Fugitive Doctor is fiercely proud of who she is and doesn't believe she needs to change, but she also begins to see that Osgood and Andrew might have a point."

He added: "We've already seen just how uncompromising she can be in Titan Comics' Adversary of the Daleks', where her actions lead to [spoiler alert] the destruction of the Metiki and the deaths of many humans in Ancient Greece. "She isn't like the Doctors UNIT is familiar with, and that contrast sits at the heart of Circuit Breaker. How that ultimately leads to her carrying a sonic screwdriver however is something readers will have to discover in The Kaleidoscope written by Jo Martin, releasing on 3 September, and in more detail through the UNIT HQ website throughout the project’s duration." Asked whether the Fugitive Doctor is still considered a pre-Hartnell incarnation, Page went on: "Andrew and Osgood call on the Fugitive Doctor because, as far as UNIT knows, she is the earliest known incarnation of the Doctor. "They have very little information about her, but that's the understanding they are working from. Her character has so much mystery behind her, and it’s fun to speculate where she may fit in. But for Osgood and Andrew, they are firm with the knowledge that she is the earliest incarnation they know, and the more stories we tell with the Fugitive Doctor in the future, the more I am sure we will uncover." And, as for clarity in terms of when Circuit Breaker is set? Page confirmed: "Circuit Breaker is set after Fugitive of the Judoon. The Fugitive Doctor is constantly on the move, always looking over her shoulder, so she rarely dwells on her past. However in The Kaleidoscope, she is faced with truths from her past which show a more vulnerable side to the character." Doctor Who: Circuit Breaker began on 25 June on the UNIT website.

Here's a short film I found over my hiatus that stars Jodie! A stop motion animation by Lesley Ann Rose. Produced by Northern Order Films and Candle & Bell. A story about awkwardness, connection and an unusual kind of love. Handcrafted from recycled materials and made over 14 weeks.

Jodie's going to be in a play this Saturday called Ungone! The award-winning playwright and screenwriter Hannah Patterson’s debut novel, Ungone, tells of one woman’s attempt to avoid confronting her mother’s dementia by hiring somebody else to play her part during care home visits.

Housekeeping: To keep this page fun, I'll be muting comments that spread false rumors, encourage unverified speculation, or repeatedly derail conversations into negativity. Okay... Let's celebrate Doctor Who! 💙💙
