'Doctor Who' Will Return With Festive Special 'Revolution of the Daleks'

Doctor Who Season 12 just concluded, with an episode that ostensibly changed a lot of things about the show moving forward - both for its overarcing lore and for the Doctor herself. (It also ended on a cliffhanger, leaving the Doctor stuck in a Judoon prison.) Happily, we won't have to wait that long to see what Doctor Who looks like in the wake of "The Timeless Children" - the series will be back with a special airing during "the festive season".

Entitled "Revolution of the Daleks," the special will see the return of the Doctor's oldest and most-feared enemies, though that's pretty much all we know about the episode's story. One has to assume it will pick up from the end of the season finale, and deal with both the reasons for Thirteen's imprisonment and how the Doctor will (inevitably) get out of this maximum security Judoon prison, as well as what's happening with the companions back on Earth. But Daleks! Back! Yay! (Personally, I"m a big fan of the weird little pepper pots, and am much more interested in them as adversaries for the Doctor than the Cybermen.)
