A brief new teaser released today by BBC promises the Twelfth Doctor will finally land this August. Even though a specific date hasn’t yet been set, this marks the start of a brand-new season of the long-running Doctor Who, and the first with Peter Capaldi playing the one and only Doctor.

Anticipation has been high to see where Capaldi will take the character. We’ll all find out this summer.
