Overview

Promotion
Details about the season were first announced at the Official Doctor Who Convention 2021, on 27 November, alongside a teaser trailer for the first serial. This teaser trailer was screened at the convention, and live-streamed through YouTube, before being uploaded to various social media platforms. It was not featured on BBC or CBS television, instead only appearing online.
Several months later, on 30 March 2022, the official key art for the first serial was released, alongside an airdate announcement. The key art was initially released via Twitter, but went onto appear, not only on BBC and Paramount+ listings, but also on posters and billboards around the world, and eventually the home media releases. Two variations of the key art were released, one with BBC branding, and the other with Paramount+ branding.
On 25 April 2022, BBC One premiered a 40-second TV trailer for the first serial, in a bumper between EastEnders and Panorama. This was followed by a longer 108 second trailer being released online, through various social media platforms, including the official Doctor Who YouTube Channel and the Paramount+ YouTube Channel. The 40-second TV trailer continued to be aired across linear BBC channels, up until the 8 May premiere. A 30-second edit of the trailer was frequently seen on both CBS, and internationally around the world, advertising it's Paramount+ premiere.
