Tennant, 51, who played the time lord from 2005 to 2010, is reprising the role for the series’ 60th anniversary.
He was filmed in Bristol on Wednesday shooting scenes for the show – thought to feature in series 13 due to air in October.
Tennant is returning alongside Catherine Tate, who played his assistant Donna Noble.
Announcing the news last month, showrunner Russell T Davies said: “Maybe this is a missing story. Or a parallel world. Or a dream, or a trick, or a flashback.”
The next Doctor Who, Ncuti Gatwa, is taking over from Jodie Whittaker.
He will appear in series 14, which will be shown in 2023.
