Doctor Who Set Photos Reveal First Look At David Tennant's Return And Others

gamerant.com:

Some newly uncovered shots from the set of Doctor Who have finally revealed the hyped-up return of David Tennant as the 10th Doctor, along with Catherine Tate as the beloved companion Donna Noble. But the set photos also show another new character interacting with Tennant, which could lead to some interesting speculation regarding where the show might go from here.

As these things go, a simple leak of images from Doctor Who's set has quickly spread like wildfire, with fans sharing them far and wide. It's not difficult to see where this excitement is coming from, though. The pictures back up the recent news that Tennant and Tate will return to Doctor Who as their respective fan-favorite characters, giving fans of the show a lot to chew on. But aside from those 2, another separately-shared image seems to show off a character who may or may not be the new face of an old favorite.

While a number of snaps show off Tennant, Tate, and even Donna's grandfather and fellow popular companion Wilfred (played once again by Bernard Cribbins), there's also another one floating around that appears to show Tennant next to newcomer Yasmin Finney. This has led many fans to speculate that Tennant is, in fact, playing the «alternate» version of the 10th Doctor who stayed behind in a separate timeline with Rose Tyler (originally played by Billie Piper). But that theory could also have some interesting implications regarding Finney's character.

Recent news confirmed that trans actress Finney would join the cast of Doctor Who as Rose, but the details were apparently kept intentionally ambiguous by returning showrunner Russell T. Davies. «How can there be another Rose?» he teased in the announcement.
