It’s almost time to bid farewell to The Doctor once more.

The final episode of Doctor Who season 2 (that’s season 15 for anyone who’s watched it since the show’s 2005 revival) will be with us very soon. And, whether or not you believe the rumors that it’ll be Ncuti Gatwa’s last hurrah as the 15th Doctor, you won’t want to miss what happens in this season’s finale.

So, when will ‘The Reality War’ be released? Below, I’ll tell you when and where you can watch Doctor Who‘s next episode. Set those co-ordinates for Earth via the TARDIS, everyone, and let’s travel through time and space to find out more.

As I mentioned above, UK viewers can tune into BBC iPlayer and BBC One to see if The Doctor, Bel, Ruby, and numerous other heroes can save the day. If you can’t watch ‘The Reality War’ until it airs on BBC One, I’d recommend staying off social media, and/or muting certain words and hashtags, so nobody spoils its biggest moments for you ahead of time.

Meanwhile, the rest of the world can watch it on Disney+, aka one of the world’s best streaming services.
