Production has commenced in the UK on The War Between The Land And The Sea, the first Doctor Who spin-off series between the BBC and Disney+.
The cast sees Ruth Madeley and Colin McFarlane return to the Whoniverse alongside the previously announced Russell Tovey, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Jemma Redgrave, and Alexander Devrient.
The series is created by Doctor Who Showrunner and Executive Producer Russell T Davies, who has written the series with Executive Producer Pete McTighe (A Discovery of Witches, Wentworth, Doctor Who).
When a fearsome and ancient species emerges from the ocean, dramatically revealing themselves to humanity, an international crisis is triggered. With the entire population at risk, UNIT step into action as the land and sea wage war.
The five-part series will be directed by Dylan Holmes Williams and will screen in Australia on Disney+.

I’m not sure how many genuine ‘Who’ fans are left to trial this spin-off show. In my opinion, If ‘The War Between The Land And the Sea’ has any realistic chance of succeeding it will need to be kept at arms length from the recent Who universe and try to develop its own canon, much like Torchwood did, but with Russell T Davies in charge anything could and probably will happen.
Lets hope its better than the latest episodes of Doctor Who!
