Series 12

Series 12 is the second series starring The Jazz Doctor and Katherine. It also sees the debut of an all new robotic companion, F3LINE. It was commissioned 26 days before the release of Series 11, as the BBC knew it would be a huge global success, and fans would instantly take to the new Doctor.

This series sees The Jazz Doctor in even more dangerous situations than he has been previously. It has been speculated that there will be an episode set on BBC's *The Big Questions*, where The Doctor must save Peter Hitchens from being pelted with eggs by radical Islamists.

The TARDIS console room was also tweaked, and fitted with red carpets.

The series arc revolves around The Doctor meeting characters who tell him about "the announcement". It is heavily implied that the unfolding of this prophecy will result in The Doctor regenerating. In the Christmas Special, The Doctor meets a logical free thinker who tells him prophecies are bullshit. The entire series is very much focused on encouraging people to be more logical, and just because an Ood says 'the major announcement' will result in The Jazz Doctor regenerating, there is no sufficient evidence to back it up, so it probably won't happen.
