Ncuti Gatwa Shares New Look at His Doctor Who Outfit and Companion

It may be a while before we see the next season of Sex Education on Netflix, but Ncuti Gatwa is going to be appearing as the next incarnation of the Doctor in the next Doctor Who.

While the series hypes up the return of David Tennant, we do have a look at Gatwa’s new duds as the Doctor including the look for his companion Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson). Check it:

Though we’ve got a look at Gatwa’s costume before, this video actually gives us a closeup of his jewelry. Admittedly, the orange shirt with the coat and shoes looks kind of plain, but add on the rings and he starts getting a bit more personality; don’t forget the necklaces.

We don’t know why Gatwa’s debut was cut short with a re-appearance of Tennant’s Doctor, but it’s definitely a surprise that caught a lot of fans off guard. One theory is that, Neil Patrick Harris’ character is supposed to be some cosmic being that is a fan of ‘the show’ and he’s basically standing in for all the fans online who have been whining about bringing back their favorite incarnation of the Doctor.

Or it could be something else. I just love it when stories go a little meta sometimes without losing any core themes.

I’m sure Gatwa will be a fun addition to the Doctor Who canon, and I can’t wait till the torch is officially passed to him.

Catch Doctor Who when it returns to the BBC sometime in 2023.
