Season two will officially launch on Saturday 12 April at 8am on BBC iPlayer and later that day on BBC One in the UK. At the same time, those outside of the UK can watch the Doctor and Belinda on their epic adventures on Disney+ where available.

I did not follow this for some time: why is this season two? Did they restart the series again?

It’s a relaunch, not a reboot. The show is now a Co-production with Disney, and is available on Disney+ everywhere except the UK and Ireland. It’s also had quite a large budget increase. To aid the global marketing for the new situation, the show has reset the season counter again.

Wait? It's not available in the UK where it's from and based on? Wtf Disney.

My assumption would be because that's bbc's territory. They want to stream it on their own service. (I have no idea if this is true or even if bbc has a streaming platform)

The BBC had the first catch-up streaming platform in the world, since 2007.
