The writer, who helmed the series through Jodie Whittaker's tenure as the Doctor, from 2018 to 2022, spoke candidly about the process during a recent appearance on a podcast, saying that it's "very easy to miss the point that this is primarily about money."
"Any discussion around it is about money more than anything else, and I think that that’s been missed a little in the discourse that I saw around the show.
"There’s all kinds of other things and obviously it’s hugely disappointing and hasn’t been handled brilliantly. But really, the big story is, look, this is a BBC that cannot afford to make shows that it wants to make. The BBC wants to make Doctor Who. Don’t be in any doubt about that."
As part of that announcement, it was confirmed that the 2026 Christmas special would be cancelled - however, the BBC has confirmed the show will eventually return "in all its glory".
Fans are now waiting for news on the series' future, although it's tipped to be off screen until at least 2028.
