JODIE WHITTAKER 'TO LEAVE DOCTOR WHO AFTER THREE SERIES'

Reports: Jodie Whittaker tells Doctor Who bosses she plans to stick to the seemingly traditional rule of staying on in the role for three series.

An insider told The Mirror: "It's all very hush hush but it is known on set that Jodie is leaving and they are gearing up for a regeneration...

"Her departure is top secret but as some point over the coming months the arrival of the 14th Doctor will need to be filmed. It's very exciting."

The Mirror also claim an insider has told them that Jodie is keen to take on other roles. The Mirror understands that Chris Chibnall (current showrunner) will stay in his role for the 14th Doctor.

Series 13 of Doctor Who will air later in 2021.
