The team behindDoctor Whoalways keeps the premise of new episodes under wraps. That is the case for “Joy to the World”, with theBBCandDisney+wanting to keep plenty of surprises for Christmas Day. But even if the companies don’t want to reveal much about upcoming episodes of the series, behind-the-scenes information that has come to light after the conclusion of the previous season could provide hints regarding where the Time Lord is going next.
