Doctor Who: Chris Chibnall's Approach To Spoilers Has Made The Show Exciting Again
Chris Chibnall's time on Doctor Who has been notable for clamping down on potential spoilers for upcoming episodes, which has injected genuine surprise and excitement into his era. There's always been a fine line in promoting the series between exciting teases to draw in viewers and outright spoilers that ruin surprises, which previous showrunners have sometimes fallen foul of. Russell T Davies, for example, received criticism for revealing the new Dalek Sec/human hybrid on the front cover of a TV listings magazine before they were revealed on-screen. Steven Moffat's final season, the last before Chris Chibnall took on the showrunner role, revealed season 10's huge John Simm return in a trailer.
