You could go outside. Break out your winter coat for the first time this year, wrap up against the chill and do the awkward no-after-you dance with a fellow human being on a narrow pavement. But really, is it worth the bother? Inside is where it’s really happening. Inside is where the television lives.
We finally know when to expect the Doctor Who 60th anniversary specials starring David Tennant and Catherine Tate to air on BBC One and around the world – we’re getting one a week starting on Saturday the 25th of November, followed by Ncuti Gatwa’s official debut in a 2023 Christmas special. And speaking of Christmas specials, there’s one last visit to Button House for the cast of BBC comedy Ghosts to look out for.
Other than that, we’re fully into cosy season on UK TV. Brand new Taskmaster and The Great British Bake-Off are marching us towards the end of the year, accompanied by some spooky seasonal delights in the form of acclaimed US series Interview with the Vampire on BBC Two, and Mike Flanagan’s final chilling Netflix series The Fall of the House of Usher (nothing to do with the American singer, trust us). Tom Hiddleston is back too in Loki season two, with new episodes arriving weekly on Disney+. And for crime drama fans, Shetland returns this week to BBC One starring Ashley Jensen in the lead role.
We’ll update this list of TV highlights weekly with more shows, dates and times as the release announcements arrive. If you’re based in the US, here’s where to look for the relevant info.
