Ready to watch "Doctor Who" Season 13 online? This year is a little different Not only does it start with a Halloween episode (perfect timing considering the air date), but the series is supposed to tell one story throughout the episodes and also has its own title - Doctor Who: Flux

However, since there are only six episodes, they intend to make each episode count

Early reports on this season's monster are mixed, and it looks like it will be a fun mix of old and new Expect to see the return of the armored humanoid Sontaran and the tentacle-faced Ood Also, the Weeping Angel should make an appearance

This is also Whitaker's final season, but don't think she was given a short season because of her demise Instead, due to a Covid 19-related filming hiatus, "Doctor Who" season 13 was shortened from 11 to 6 episodes; three specials scheduled for 2022 will be her swan song

As for companions, Whitaker will continue to appear with PC Yasmin "Yaz" Khan (Mandip Gill), while new companion Dan Lewis (John Bishop) will make his first appearance while working at a food bank Another new casting addition is Jacob Anderson ("Game of Thrones") as Vinder, who knows nothing
