­　　The new Doctor"s identity was revealed in a trailer broadcast at the end of the Wimbledon men"s singles final.

­　　溫網男單決賽結束后播出的一則預告片揭曉了新任博士的身份。

­　　The Broadchurch star succeeds Peter Capaldi, who took over the role in 2013 and leaves in the forthcoming Christmas special.

­　　彼得•卡帕爾蒂的角色由《小鎮疑云》中的女演員惠特克接替。卡帕爾蒂于2013年出演博士，并在即將播出的圣誕特輯中退場。

­　　Whittaker, 35, said it was "overwhelming, as a feminist" to become the next Doctor.

­　　35歲的惠特克稱，“作為一名女權主義者”，她“無法抗拒”成為下一任博士。

­　　She will make her debut on the sci-fi show when the Doctor regenerates in the Christmas special.

­　　惠特克將在圣誕節特輯博士重生時首次亮相。

­　　The Huddersfield-born star will find a familiar face for her on set - Doctor Who"s new showrunner is Broadchurch creator Chris Chibnall.

­　　惠特克在劇中會遇到一個熟人——《小鎮疑云》的編劇克里斯•奇布諾爾，也是《神秘博士》的新制作人。

­　　Whittaker said: "I"m beyond excited to begin this epic journey - with Chris and with every Whovian on this planet.

­　　惠特克稱：“能夠和克里斯以及全世界的劇迷們一起開啟這段前所未有的旅程，讓我感到無比激動。”

­　　"It"s more than an honor to play the Doctor. It means remembering everyone I used to be, while stepping forward to embrace everything the Doctor stands for: hope. I can"t wait."

­　　“扮演博士不僅僅是一種榮譽，還意味著我要在記住過去的每個‘自己’的同時，還要去擁抱博士身上所代表的希望。我已經迫不及待了。”

­　　Dedicated Whovians were quick to react to the news of Jodie Whittaker taking over the Tardis.

­　　《神秘博士》的忠實劇迷們很快對朱迪•惠特克掌管時間機器的消息做出了反應。

­　　On social media, some said it would encourage them to watch the show for the first time - but others said the casting meant they would be switching off, and that the Doctor should be played by a man.

­　　社交媒體上，有人稱這個消息讓他們成為新劇迷，但是另一些人則認為，惠特克參演意味著他們將棄劇，博士應該由男性來扮演。

­　　Carla Joanna tweeted to say that she would be tuning in and that the trailer "made me choke up a little". Another tweeter, Ayad, said: "I don"t even watch Doctor Who but a woman doctor is so cool."
