Doctor Who: Season 26B

  This would be the beginning of the Shearman era, in early 2012 it was announced that Shearman and Toby Jones were leaving Doctor Who at the end of the 50th Anniversary special in 2013, Annabel Scholey would also leave at the end of the 50th however it was announced that Martin Compston would leave in Season 49. Behind the scenes both Piers Wenger and Beth Wilis left as Executive Producers and were replaced by Faith Penhale and Caroline Skinner, Sanne Wohlenberg left as producer leaving only Marcus Wilson and Denise Paul. Realm of The Daleks By Robert Shearman August 4th The story would see a system of planets which has been taken over by the Daleks, we would’ve seen the Doctor being really bitter towards the Daleks as he learns they’ve a deal with the Valeyard and he is determined more than ever to stop them.

This season would also be the debut season for Hannah Smith and Mike Whelan, a couple from 2010, played by Annabel Scholey and Martin Compston.
