DOCTOR WHO SEASON FIVE NEWS
The BBC have annnounced details of the fifth season of Doctor Who and the very good news is that David Tennant will remain in the title role. There is to be something of a gap year in 2009, no regular series but a trilogy of specials. Season four, which is already in production will air in Spring 2008 and this years Christmas special guest stars Kylie Minogue and follows on directly from the climax of season three.
Jane Tranter, who is one of the head honchos behind the return of Who put in her two bobs worth to say: "Doctor Who is one of the BBC's best loved and most successful dramas. Its journey over the past three series has been one of the most ambitious and exciting that we have had, and I'm delighted to be able to confirm not only three exciting specials for 2009, but a fifth series in 2010."
Catherine Tate is due to be the new companion for season four. The excellent Freema Agyeman is due to also make a couple of appearances in not just Doctor Who but also the second season of Torchwood.
