Jodie Whittaker will make her final Doctor Who appearance in a 90-minute special on Bbc One later.

The Actress as The First woman to take on The Lead role in The long-running sci-fi drama.

In her final story, The Power of The Doctor , Whittaker will take on three of The Doctor 's best known Enemies - The Daleks, The Cybermen and The Master .
