Doctor Who‘s Most Surprising Cameo Will Get An Explanation This Fall

One of the biggest surprise of Doctor Who ’s fiftieth day of remembrance special was the abbreviated moment that Peter Capaldi ’s 12th Doctor joined all 13 doctor in save Gallifrey — but now it looks like the next season of the show will explore that cameo even further , thanks to some wibbly - wobbly , timey - wimey mischief .

utter in an interview with SiriusXM host Erik Nagel at Comic - Con that was recently upload to Youtube ( the relevant section comes at around 2:28 in the video recording below ) , Capaldi emphatically confirmed that the upcoming ninth time of year of Doctor Who would search his cameo and the further search for The Doctor ’s home planet in reply to a doubt from Nagel about whether the cameo would be allude to in his meter on the show :

Yes . Well you do it , it ’s really severely — mightily at this moment , I ’m here at Comic - Con , but I ’m actually in the middle of filming episode 11 , which is part of the conclusion of this time of year .

So I know stuff and nonsense that is blossom forth in episode 11 , and I know certain things that are happening in episode 12 … I have n’t take episode 12 , so I do n’t know exactly what ’s travel on there , but in answer to your question … you ’ll have to wait and see .

Many fans expected Capaldi ’s debut season to carry on with the search for Gallifrey watch over the event of The Day of the Doctor , but The Doctor ’s hunt for home only really got minor care during the final moment of the season finale , Death in Heaven , where it was revealed that co - ordinate for the satellite ’s location given to The Doctor by Missy were faked , leaving the world still mislay . At least according to Capaldi , not only will the search for Gallifrey as well as his twenty-four hours of the Doctor cameo be a part of the next season of the show , but pretty authoritative parts if they ’re show up in the time of year finale to boot .

We wo n’t have long to look to observe out more though — Doctor Who returns on BBC One and BBC America September 19th .
