Doctor Who season 11 may have New Year’s special instead of Christmas one
Why? According to a new report coming in right now via the Mirror, the idea for a special was mostly scrapped due to there not being an abundance of great ideas out there to make a really great Christmas special. That made it so that the creative team shifted over to an idea about 2019, something that will offer up the show a chance to do something different.

If this report turns out to be true, there is a part of our brain that will treat it like the worst news of all time … mostly because it’s felt like such a familiar thing for so long to be able to dive in and enjoy a Christmas Special. However, we’d rather not have one than have one that the majority of people out there think is far from good. Sometimes you need to have a little bit of a trade-off in order to get the best story that you possibly can. We’d much prefer some sort of New Year’s Special if there is a strong creative behind it. Great Doctor Who episodes, at least for us, is one in which the imagination is being used to the fullest.
Also, here’s a slight silver lining to all of this: There is one less week between the end of season 11 and then whatever the writers have planned for season 12 — we know that this is still extremely far down the road, but it is at least something that we still have tucked away in our brain. Given how successful season 11 has been, it definitely does feel fair to say that the iconic series is going to be sticking around for quite some time moving forward.
