Power of The Doctor’ on BBC America? How to Watch Online

The Master, Daleks, and Cybermen, oh my! All good things must come to an end – and that includes the era of the Thirteenth Doctor. Jodie Whittaker made history as the first female Doctor in the show’s long-running history, and now her run is almost over. Whittaker has played the role of the galaxy traveling Time Lord since 2018, and the next lead of Doctor Who will next be Sex Education’s Ncuti Gatwa, the first Black actor to play the role. Perhaps we’ll get a glimpse of him at the end, as Whittaker changes into her new form?

Before the regeneration, though, we have the Thirteenth Doctor’s finale showdown to look forward to, in the epic finale Doctor Who: The Power of The Doctor. What better way to round out spooky season then saying goodbye to our beloved time-traveling scientist? Here’s what you need to know about how to watch the Doctor Who special:
