Ncuti Gatwa (left) and Peter Capaldi (right) were pictured together for the first time at the British Academy Scotland Awards on Sunday in Glasgow Peter has previously praised Ncuti for being 'absolutely amazing', adding that he is an 'amazing' actor who will bring 'depth' to his former role. Earlier this year, he told BBC Scotland's The Edit: 'Doctor Who is a great part. You can't lose with it. It's a joy to play. And I think he'll just really grab it with both hands and get on with it.' Peter was cast in 2013 as the Doctor, succeeding Matt Smith in the role. He was succeeded by Jodie Whittaker in the 2017 Christmas special, Twice Upon a Time. Doctor Who has already seen a number of overhauls ahead of its upcoming series, with a new logo unveiled, Russell T Davies returning as showrunner and Ncuti cast as the new Time Lord.

You can't lose with it. It's a joy to play. And I think he'll just really grab it with both hands and get on with it' And the popular sci-fi franchise is also set to get a record-breaking new budget after the BBC signed an exciting new deal with Disney+, according to reports. Sources told Broadcast magazine the budget is set to increase from £1-3million per episode to a staggering £10million per installment when the show returns next year. One source told the publication that the ramping up of production values and investment from Disney+ is an attempt to help the show find success in the US. The reported budget would break BBC records and see Doctor Who become its most expensive series, surpassing the previous record-holder His Dark Materials, which had a budget of around £6million per episode due to its HBO collaboration. In their element: Ncuti beamed towards Peter as they took some more pro shots Hilarious: The pair continued to lark about in front of the cameras Delighted: Peter couldn't wipe the smile from his face as he posed with the Outstanding Contribution to Film and Television award MailOnline contacted Disney+ for comment at the time. Disney+ is set to become the new global home for Doctor Who, with episodes from late 2023 premiering on both the BBC and the streaming service. Russell T Davies said of the collaboration: 'I love this show, and this is the best of both worlds – with the vision and joy of the BBC and Disney+ together we can launch the TARDIS all around the planet, reaching a new generation of fans while keeping our traditional home firmly on the BBC in the UK.' As reports of more money being pumped into the show, the BBC have already secured huge names for its big 60th anniversary in 2023, including Neil Patrick Harris starring as a mystery villain. Friends: Peter chatted away with with the award presenter Phyllis Logan Deserving: He proudly held up his new gong for snappers The actor, 49, will play the 'greatest enemy the Doctor has ever faced', with fans convinced that he will take on the nostalgic villain The Toymaker during his guest-starring stint. The budget comes as part of a huge overhaul which has seen Russell, 59, return as showrunner in a bid to save the show from falling ratings - 12 years after he stepped away. Jodie's final episode pulled in just 3.6million average viewers with a peak of 4million, according to overnight ratings. Big changes: Doctor Who has already seen a number of overhauls ahead of its new series, with a new logo unveiled and Ncuti being cast as the new Time Lord Her last hurrah as the Time Lord proved more popular than the New Year's special, which racked up just 3.2million average viewers with a peak of 3.4million. However, audience numbers still remained far below the start of Jodie's tenure as the Doctor in 2018, which pulled in a staggering 9million viewers. As Jodie, 40, stepped back from the role after five years, David Tennant made his shock return as The Doctor in October's much-anticipated epic. Talented: Peter was cast in 2013 as the Doctor, succeeding Matt Smith in the role. He was succeeded by Jodie Whittaker in the 2017 Christmas special, Twice Upon a Time The Power of the Doctor was jam-packed with excitement as famous faces returned, Jodie bowed out after five years as the Time Lord, David made his return, and fans were given a first-look at Ncuti Gatwa as the 14th Doctor. A number of former assistants - including Janet Fielding, who plays Tegan - and former Doctors Peter Davison and Colin Baker made guest appearances in the epic. The episode came to a very dramatic conclusion as Jodie's Doctor shockingly regenerated into a very familiar face - David Tennant's 10th Doctor.
