The BBC has announced the full list of writers and directors for the new series of Doctor Who. Showrunner Chris Chibnall, said:
“We have a team of writers who’ve been working quietly and secretly for a long time now, crafting characters, worlds and stories to excite and move you. A set of directors who stood those scripts up on their feet, bringing those ideas, visuals and emotions into existence with bravura and fun.
Hailing from a range of backgrounds, tastes and styles, here’s what unites them: they are awesome people as well as brilliant at their job. (It matters!) They love Doctor Who. And they’ve all worked above and beyond the call of duty in an effort to bring audiences something special, later this year.”

Directors 导演团队
Sallie Aprahamian
Sallie Aprahamian has been directing television for over two decades with critically acclaimed shows including: Extremely Dangerous, The Sins, Real Men, The Lakes, Teachers and This Life.
Sallie’s memories of Doctor Who go right back to the 1960s, when William Hartnell created the role. She says:
“I watched the First Doctor from behind the sofa through my fingers, frightened and exhilarated. I was really delighted, as a fan and as a director, to be invited to work on the first female Doctor’s series. What a brilliant time to be on the show!”
Sallie Aprahamian已经做了20年的电视剧导演，代表作包括广受好评的《Extremely Dangerous》《The Sins》《惨淡的真相》（Real Men）《The Lakes》和《Teacher and This life》。Sallie关于《神秘博士》的记忆开始于60年代William Hartnell饰演的第1任博士。她说：
“我捂着眼睛，躲在沙发后面看完了第一任博士的剧集，既害怕又激动。作为《神秘博士》的粉丝和导演，我很高兴能受邀为第一位女博士的剧集工作，这个时机太棒了！”
Jamie Childs
Jamie Childs, who directed Jodie Whittaker’s reveal as the Thirteenth Doctor, returns for the opening episode of the new series. Jamie says Doctor Who represents an important part of our television landscape.
“We tend to avoid making many shows in Britain that really allow the audience to properly escape, and Doctor Who has been doing this for decades. So yes, sign me up – I’ve always wanted to be part of that! There really aren’t many shows made over here that allow the viewer to travel to another universe.”
Jamie Childs导演了揭晓第13任博士的片段，也是新一季第一集的导演。Jamie说，《神秘博士》是电视剧史上浓墨重彩的一笔，
“在英国，我们不常制作让观众完全逃离现实的剧集，但《神秘博士》已经贯彻这个主题50多年了。所以，请让我加入吧，我一直都想成为其中的一份子！让观众穿越到另一个宇宙去冒险，在英国这样的电视剧可不多。”
Jennifer Perrott
Jennifer Perrott wrote, directed, produced and executive produced her award-winning 35mm short film The Ravens. Since finishing Doctor Who *she has been directing *Gentleman Jack, a forthcoming BBC One/HBO historical drama series created by Sally Wainwright. Jennifer says:
“Doctor Who is an iconic show and one I’d loved as a child, especially when Tom Baker was the Doctor. Space travel has become more a part of modern life and this has opened the door for more human stories to be told amidst the escapist fantasy of saving the world from alien invasion. The aliens are now as emotionally complex as the humans, and I was really excited by that.”
Jennifer Perrott编写、导演和制作了备受赞誉的35mm短片《乌鸦》（The Raven），在完成《神秘博士》的工作后，她接下了即将播出的《杰克绅士》（Gentleman Jack）的导演工作——一部由BBC One和HBO合拍的历史剧，Sally Wainwright担任制作人。Jennifer说：
“《神秘博士》是我小时候就十分喜爱的经典剧目，对Tom Baker饰演的第四任博士情有独钟。太空旅行主题已经变成了现代生活的一部分，通过对逃离现实、抵抗外星人入侵的描绘，展现了人性更多元化的一面。外星人和人类一样情感丰富，我很喜欢这一点。”
