It's almost time to bid farewell to The Doctor once more.
The final episode of Doctor Who season 2 (that's season 15 for anyone who's watched it since the show's 2005 revival) will be with us very soon. And, whether or not you believe the rumors that it'll be Ncuti Gatwa's last hurrah as the 15th Doctor, you won't want to miss what happens in this season's finale.
So, when will 'The Reality War' be released? Below, I'll tell you when and where you can watch Doctor Who's next episode. Set those co-ordinates for Earth via the TARDIS, everyone, and let's travel through time and space to find out more.
What time can I watch the Doctor Who season 2 finale?
'The Reality War' will be available to watch on Saturday, May 31 in most countries. However, Whovians in some nations won't be able to stream it on Disney+ until Sunday, June 1 because of time zone differences.
As for the actual time that one of the best Disney+ shows' next chapter be released on these services, 'The Reality War' will receive a simultaneous release across the globe.
That means that, while previous episodes dropped at, say, 12am PT in the US, season 2 episode 8 won't be available to stream on Disney+ until it premieres on BBC One in the UK.
According to the BBC's own TV guide for May 31, 'The Reality War' will air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer at 6:50pm BST. Armed with this information, we can work out when it'll be broadcast on Disney+ in the countries listed below (NB: if your nation doesn't appear, you can use the aforementioned UK time to determine when you can stream it):
- US – 10:50am PT / 1:50pm ET
- Canada – 10:50am PT / 1:50pm ET
- Brazil – 2:50pm BRT
- UK – 6:50pm BST
- India – 11:20pm IST
- Australia – 3:50am AEST (Sunday, June 1)
- New Zealand – 5:50am NZST (Sunday, June 1)

As I mentioned above, UK viewers can tune into BBC iPlayer and BBC One to see if The Doctor, Bel, Ruby, and numerous other heroes can put a stop to the Rani's Omega-based plan and save the day.
Meanwhile, the rest of the world can watch it on Disney+, aka one of the world's best streaming services.
