That means we'll likely see a regeneration at the end of the year -- and that the hunt for the 13th Doctor (or 14th, if you include Hurt's retroactive 'War Doctor' role) is officially underway.
Series 10 is also the last for showrunner Steven Moffat -- and the first for the Doctor's new companion Bill, played by Pearl Mackie.
So the quest for the new Doctor will almost certainly be undertaken by Moffat's replacement, Chris Chibnall -- a Whoveteran and creator of the procedural hit Broadchurch(starring former Doctor David Tennant).
