No real spoilers here, but obviously it's up to you whether you read it or not Doctor Who: The Woman Who Fell to Earth spoiler-free preview: “From her first appearance there’s no question – Jodie Whittaker IS the Doctor” | Radio Times It's mainly about the *look* of the episode ("Frankly, from the very first frame of the episode this feels like a different sort of Who. Plenty has been written about how the series got a visual upgrade this year, with the production team bringing in new cameras, changing the series’ aspect ratio and generally trying to match the scope of its US or Netflix sci-fi rivals, and you definitely see this extra effort on screen...Simply put, Doctor Who has never looked better, from some visually-arresting locations – the most scenic areas of Sheffield get a good showing – all the way to the special effects from new VFX team Double Negative. The series premiere is a feast for the eyes, basically, and a credit to director Jamie Hill (who also directed Jodie Whittaker’s secret reveal video in 2017)") and more background information about the new characters Oh, and Bradley wears a wig for the whole series!

Just a heads up for anyone who sent off for their replacement discs for the recent Tom Baker season 12 blu ray box set. Mine arrived today, so hopefully everyone else will either have got theirs already, or will arrive soon.
