The actress will reprise her role as Missy on the show and has already joined the cast to film in Cardiff, Wales ahead of the new series.

Speaking ahead of the new episodes, she said: "Things have been a little beige since I left Missy behind, so I'm delighted to be putting my Lippie back on.

"I'm positively dying to see the Doctor again!"

She'll be joining new Doctor, Peter Capaldi and Clara Oswald, played by Jenna Coleman for the new series' first episode.

BBC One's lead writer and executive producer for the show Steven Moffat promises that Michelle's character is back to "plague" the Doctor and his companion.

He explained: "Everybody hide - Michelle Gomez as Missy was an instant hit last year, so she's straight back to plague the Doctor and Clara in the series opener. But what brings her back into their lives is the last thing they'd expect."

Guest appearances confirmed for this series so far include Kelly Hunter, Clare Higgins, Jaye Griffiths and Jemma Redgrave.

Other stars appearing in the new series includes Daniel Hoffmann-Gill, Jami Reid-Quarrell and Aaron Neil as well as India Ria Amarteifio, Joey Price, Dasharn Anderson, Harki Bhambra and Demi Papaminas.

'Doctor Who' will return to screens in the Autumn.
