The BBC responded to a The Sun report that Doctor Who was being shelved for five to 10 years due to disappointing viewership, saying in a statement: “This story is incorrect. Doctor Who has not been shelved. As we have previously stated, the decision on season 3 (season numbering for the series was reset for the third time with Gatwa’s debut season) will be made after season 2 airs.”
