A lot of the info appears to be deliberately ambiguous. I mean, David and Catherine are "filming scenes" for the special, instead of saying they're in it? Yasmin "playing a character called Rose," without specifying what role this is? Hmm...Is she the new companion though? The wording on the press release is ambiguous. I hope she is.

It reminds a lot of the casting announcement when Billie was said to return for the 50th anniversary when they specifically said that she was "returning", but avoided mentioning that it was as Rose
EDIT: Very interesting...
Russell truly has his finger on the pulse with these recent castings. I’m just worried that certain gammon fans are going to target Yasmin like they did with that young actress in Percy Jackson. If so…

Don’t worry, they started their “RIP DOCTOR WHO 1963-2022” posts as soon as Ncuti was announced.Russell truly has his finger on the pulse with these recent castings. I’m just worried that certain gammon fans are going to target Yasmin like they did with that young actress in Percy Jackson. If so…

Or they’ve never watched in the first place nnI'm living for the fact that all the unhinged right-wing viewers hailed Russell's returns as saving the show, but a black Doctor and a trans supporting character later and it's all "Russell has ruined the show!!" "we pay a license fee for this!?" "I shan't be watching any longer!"
These people have stopped watching this show four of five times now. JUST FUCKING GO THEN
There are people complaining about the new casting as being a "box-ticking exercise," then in the same breath saying that they've never watched the show. Literally worms for brains.
