I don't tend to watch it, Lydart,  but this link says that the Ricky T episode was 5 of 10 so it's still continuing - maybe a seasonal break:

BBC said it wouldn't be broadcasting WDYTYA over the Christmas and New Year holiday period.  I guess it'll be back 2nd week of January.

I can`t remember if it was at the beginning or end of the Ricky Tomlinson episode, but they said it     ( WDYTYA ) will return " in the New Year ".

I live in Wales and BBC Wales has a programme called " Coming Home " same sort of thing, but with Welsh people. The same week as RT on WDYTYA, they had Ioan Gruffdd ( Horatio Hornblower ) If you can catch it, you`ll see how understated actors can be !  I recorded it to view later, I really enjoyed it.

The relevant web page shows "There are no upcoming broadcasts of this programme", so the break may be longer than we had hoped for.

After all, they have to squeeze in what seems like dozens of extra EastEnders episodes (yet another one today :(  ).
Looking at ALSTON in south Ribble area, ALSTEAD and DONBAVAND/DUNBABIN etc. everywhere, HOWCROFT and MARSH in Bolton and Westhoughton, PICKERING in the Whitehaven area.

As revealed in early November
http://www.whodoyouthinkyouaremagazine.com/news/bbc-reveals-wdytya-series-13-start-date

"Episodes featuring Sir Ian McKellen, Greg Davies, Sunetra Sarker, Warwick Davis and Sophie Raworth will be on our screens after Christmas and into the New Year, but the transmission dates have not yet been confirmed."
Today I broke my personal record for most consecutive days alive.
