    Doctor Who fans it’s time to set your alarms, because The Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) is on his way back to your screens, this time with a new addition to the TARDIS, Belinda Chandra (Varada Sethu) as season two of Doctor Who premieres in 2025 on BBC and BBC iPlayer in the UK and Disney+ outside of the UK.

    In what promises to be yet another compelling adventure in space and time… here’s everything you need to know about the new season!

    When does Doctor Who season 2 start on iPlayer and BBC One?

    Season two will officially launch on Saturday 12 April at 8am on BBC iPlayer and later that day on BBC One in the UK.

    What’s the Doctor Who Season 2 plot?

    Viewers accompany Belinda Chandra (Varada Sethu) and The Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) on their heroic journey to return Belinda to Earth. However, an enigmatic force is preventing them from returning, and the time-traveling TARDIS crew must contend with more perilous situations, fierce adversaries, and terrifying creatures than ever before.

    Who is Varada Sethu?

    The Fifteenth Doctor, like many of his predecessors, cannot function with only one companion, and when Varada Sethu boards the TARDIS in season two, he will be accompanied by two.

    Varada, who starred in the Disney+ Star Wars series Andor, comes to the Whoniverse from a galaxy far, far away. She now fastens her seatbelt and embarks on yet another voyage across space and time with Millie Gibson as Ruby Sunday and Ncuti Gatwa as the Fifteenth Doctor.
