Doctor Who returns in April, and it's bringing Alan Cumming
Alan Cumming returns to the TARDIS for the first time since 2018.

The good Doctor Who is bringing the TARDIS back to television this April, and the Doctor isn’t coming alone. In the second episode, none other than the Traitor himself Alan Cumming will be making his long-awaited return to the long-running British sci-fi series. Cumming will voice Mr Ring-a-Ding in the upcoming season’s second episode. Mr. Ring-a-Ding is a cartoon character who lives in Sunny Town with his good-time buddy, Sunshine Sally. Set in 1952, Mr. Ring-a-ding, tired of repeats in movie theaters, “suddenly looks beyond the screen and sees the real world outside — and the consequences are terrifying.” Based on the previously released teaser, Mr. Ring-a-Ding crawls out of the screen like in Last Action Hero. The episode marks Cumming’s second appearance in the Whoniverse. His first was in the 2018 episode “The Witchfinder,” playing King James I.
