The eleventh series of the [[British television|British]] [[science fiction on television|science fiction television]] programme ''[[Doctor Who]]'' premiered on 7 October 2018 and concluded on 9 December 2018. The series is the first to be led by [[Chris Chibnall]] as head writer and executive producer, alongside executive producers Matt Strevens and Sam Hoyle, after [[Steven Moffat]] and Brian Minchin stepped down after the [[Doctor Who (series 10)|tenth series]]. This series is the eleventh to air following the programme's revival in 2005 and is the thirty-seventh season overall. It also marks the beginning of the third production era of the revived series, following [[Russell T Davies]]' run from 2005–2010, and Moffat's from 2010–2017. The eleventh series was broadcast on Sundays, a first in the programme's history, after regular episodes of the revived era have previously been broadcast on Saturdays. The series was followed by a New Year's Day special episode, "[[Resolution (Doctor Who)|Resolution]]", instead of the traditional annual Christmas Day special.
 
The series introduces [[Jodie Whittaker]] as the [[Thirteenth Doctor]], a new incarnation of [[The Doctor (Doctor Who)|the Doctor]], an alien [[Timeof Lord]]unknown origin who travels through time and space in her [[TARDIS]], which appears to be a British [[police box]] on the outside. The series also introduces [[Bradley Walsh]], [[Tosin Cole]], and [[Mandip Gill]] as the Doctor's newest travelling [[Companion (Doctor Who)|companion]]s, [[Graham O'Brien]], [[Ryan Sinclair]], and [[Yasmin Khan (Doctor Who)|Yasmin Khan]], respectively. The series follows the Thirteenth Doctor as she initially searches for her lost TARDIS, inadvertently bringing Graham, Ryan, and Yasmin with her on her travels. All three later contemplate returning to their normal lives but decide to continue travelling with the Doctor. Rather than an overall story arc similar to those in previous series, each episode of the series served mostly as a standalone story.
 
With the exception of Chibnall, every writer and director who worked on the eleventh series was new to the programme. The ten episodes were directed by Jamie Childs, [[Mark Tonderai]], Sallie Aprahamian, and Jennifer Perrott, and written by [[Malorie Blackman]], Ed Hime, [[Pete McTighe]], [[Vinay Patel]], Joy Wilkinson, and Chris Chibnall, who wrote five episodes for the series solo, co-writing an additional episode with Blackman. Filming for the series commenced in October 2017 and concluded in August 2018.{{TOC limit|3}}
