Doctor Who continues on Christmas Day with the first full story for the Fifteenth Doctor Ncuti Gatwa.

The Church on Ruby Road can be seen on BBC One in the United Kingdom at 5.55pm.

It will be released on Disney+ and the BBC iPlayer at the same time.

Long ago, on Christmas Eve, a baby was abandoned in the snow.

Today, Ruby Sunday meets the Doctor, goblins, stolen babies and, perhaps, the secret of her birth

The Church on Ruby Road also features Millie Gibson as Ruby Sunday, Anita Dobson as Mrs Flood and Davina McCall as herself.

 

It is written by Russell T Davies and directed by Mark Tonderai for Bad Wolf Productions and BBC Studios.
