News: The Next Doctor Feature in Radio Times

The Next Doctor is featured in the new Radio Times, with a gatefold cover shared by David Morrissey, David Tennant, Dervla Kirwan - and some Cybermen. But as the Radio Times ask - Who's The Doctor? (Click here for a look at the cover) The cover is accompanied by a behind the scenes feature and interviews with the cast. Of note are the words of Russell T Davies, which indicate that there's more to Morrissey's "Doctor" than we're lead to believe. “Hopefully, that creates a...

News: RTD OBE and Denial

Doctor Who Executive Producer and showrunner Russell T Davies has been to Buckingham Palace to collect his OBE. Not only that, he's found time to tell the world that he hasn't a clue who the 11th Doctor will be played by. Of the OBE - presented by the Prince of Wales, with whom he later chatted for some time, Davies said: "Writers are the lifeblood of a lot of stuff that gets made. So I was really honoured to accept it on behalf of everyone slaving away at keyboards." And on...

Yes - it's the second hottest job in British television drama, and the natural-looking Connie Fisher fancies travelling through space and time as the Doctor's companion. “I’m a massive Doctor Who fan and I would love to be Doctor...

News: Philip Madoc Live

The great Welsh character actor Philip Madoc is appearing onstage in The Holly and the Ivy at Southport Arts Centre - and as with anyone connected to Doctor Who (however remote) he's been asked about who the next Doctor might be. Let's get this out of the way first - he's a great actor, responsible for some of the greatest portrayals in Doctor Who's long history. My favourite is the deranged Mehendri Solon in The Brain of Morbius - but of course he's been in the show a few times. So why not...

News: David Morrissey on Doctor Who

Speaking to the Radio Times, David Morrissey has revealed one or two things about filming a Christmas Doctor Who, and how he would feel about being cast in the role... While the presence of classic foes the Cybermen in The Next Doctor raised his game, Morrissey is uncomfortable acting against nothing... “The difficulty for me is green screen - trying to create a relationship with something that isn’t there," Morrissey told the Radio Times about the devices, which are used...

News: Freema's on Fire

Freema Agyeman is everywhere at the moment - comparatively speaking - with the former star of Doctor Who and Torchwood currently starring in Charles Dickens' Little Dorrit and popping up in the first episode of Survivors. Ms Agyeman owes it all to Doctor Who as well, it seems. Forget bloody Crossroads! Recalling her casting in Army of Ghosts, Freema says: "I probably had six lines, but it's all about doing the best you possibly can with what you're given, and then you just do not...

News: Doctor Who the Hell Are You?

The old "I want to be the Doctor!" press circus continues, with this time with a virtually unknown Australian actor apparently flying to the UK for an audition... David Knijnenburg is the name - he comes from an acting family and has a limited range of credits according to IMDb - but the most intriguing thing about Knijnenburg is that he is a respected voice coach. The Brisbane actor has of course denied everything - "If that were true then I probably wouldn't be in a...

News: Paterson Joseph Momentum

Since Kasterborous the casting of Paterson Joseph as the Eleventh Doctor, no official announcement has yet been made by the BBC, or leaked early by the Press. We're confident however that an announcement is due; however contrary to the information that presented itself last week, not as soon as we anticipated. However various people across the press are hinting in the same direction - the Guardian's Gavin McClean revealed that Steven Moffat had told him "who the new Doctor was",...
