Read below to discover the top 5 British produced series arriving in 2023, that we at Proline are most looking forward to…

 

5. Doctor Who

Doctor Who has been a regular staple in the homes of sci-fi fans for many years now and 2023 brings with it much excitement for a number of reasons. Firstly, Russell T Davies is returning as showrunner to celebrate the show’s 60^th anniversary, Davies is credited with propelling the show into a global phenomenon and making it a massive hit. BBC Studios are partnering with Cardiff based Bad Wolf to produce. If that’s not enough to get you excited, David Tennant will also be returning for three special episodes, following the surprise twist at the end of 2022’s final which saw Jodie Whittaker somehow regenerating into the Tenth Doctor.

How to watch: Doctor Who season 14 is set to premiere over the 2023 festive period on BBC One.

 

4. Great Expectations

Olivia Colman as Miss Haversham and Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight. This combination sounds almost too good to be true! Knight’s adaptation of Great Expectations marks his second Charles Dickens limited series, with this one telling the famous story of orphan Pip (Fionn Whitehead) and his relationship with the aged Miss Haversham (Olivia Colman). Produced by Scott Free Productions and with Knight’s writing style, this series probably won’t shy away from Dicken’s darker side…
