New Year s Day TV: Doctor Who and The Serpent

Doctor Who (BBC1, 6.45pm) IT’S been nine months since we last saw Jodie Whittaker as everybody’s favourite Time Lord. The sci-fi classic was a Christmas Day fixture for several years, but has now found a home at New Year instead, and this festive edition certainly kicks off 2021 in style by reintroducing the heroine’s most feared foe – the Daleks. Unfortunately for Yaz, Ryan and Graham, they can’t call on the Doctor’s help when they uncover the alien threat in their midst because she’s currently locked up in a high-security prison in some far-flung corner of the galaxy. Instead, the trio must find a way to battle the legion of evil themselves – which is far from easy. And to spice things up a bit, John Barrowman is back as Captain Jack.

It s chocks away for chitty! Can David Walliams really get the famous car airborne?

As a child, David Walliams’s favourite movie was Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, the 1968 musical fantasy about a flying car, its eccentric inventor Caractacus Potts and the brilliantly scary Child Catcher. But the thing that really captured David’s imagination was when Chitty took to the air. ‘Those scenes were absolutely magical,’ recalls BGT judge David, ‘I really thought that car was flying.’ In reality, Chitty never got off the ground. Weighing a whopping two tons, the specially built vehicle was used for road scenes while a replica was employed for aerial shots at Pinewood Studios. Dick Van Dyke, who played Caractacus, and his co-stars simply had to pretend they were racing down the sides of cliffs or soaring over oceans. But what if there were a way the famous old motor could actually become airborne? David, and fans across the world, would be over the moon.
