Beep the Meep & Other Deep-Cut Doctor Who Aliens Fans Never Dreamed They’d See On TV

Warning: contains potential spoilers for the 60^th Anniversary Special

In June 2022, photos from location filming in Cardiff yielded some images of creatures that will appear (barring a hilarious amount of misdirection) during Doctor Who’s 60^th Anniversary. If you don’t want to know any more, stop reading now.

In the Summer 2022 issue of Doctor Who Magazine Russell T. Davies, showrunner and writer for the anniversary, commented: “Some monsters might be glimpsed. Monsters which might well be familiar to readers of DWM. Well, familiar, but new. Whatever that means.”

This appears to confirms the appearance of Beep the Meep and the Wrarth Warriors who originally featured in a Doctor Who Weekly comic strip (by Pat Mills and John Wagner, art by Dave Gibbons) in 1980 (with further appearances in the magazine, annuals and a couple of Big Finish audio plays).
