To recap, the latest episode of Doctor Who, The Reality War, ended with Ncuti Gatwa's Doctor regenerating into a character played by Billie Piper, who previously played the Ninth and Tenth Doctor's companion, Rose Tyler.
Now, speaking on the Half the Picture podcast, Gatiss reiterated his suggestion that the show should take a long break, and added that when it does return it should "start again and shrug it all off", not leaning too heavily into lore or continuity.
Explaining how the show should deal with its current cliffhanger, Gatiss referred to another classic series, Dallas, which originally ran from 1978 to 1991, before returning with a retcon in the 1996 reunion movie, Dallas: JR Returns.

"But the crucial thing, and the reason why the (1996) TV movie stumbles immediately, is they try and make it for all the audiences at once. Whereas the crucial audience was the brand-new audience. If you start an episode of Doctor Who inside the TARDIS, talking about the Master and the Daleks, lost - why would you not be?"
