The BBC has confirmed that Jordan, real name Katie Price, has been signed to appear in the new thirteen episode series of Doctor Who, scheduled to go into production in the summer.

Price will play the leader of a race of women discovered by Doctor Who in an episode called Land of the Vixens.

Writer Russell T Davies said that Katie Price had a couple of assets that made her perfect for the role. He added: "It will also make up for the recent disappointment Katie had when she failed to get selected to represent the UK in the Eurovision Song Contest."

There is also a small part for her husband to be, Peter Andre, he will appear as one of the slaves held captive on the planet.

The episode is expected to be broadcast in the New Year.

I think thats really cool! I'm not ashamed to admit it but i'm quite a fan of Katie and Peter! But then I've always liked Peter Andre, since i was 15, went to his concerts and everthing! :D

I'm not a big fan of Doctor Who but i think she'll ruin it


I think the press do give her a bit of a hard time but dont think she's that good of an actress

I think she is vile! She craves celebrity and will do anything to get it. Did you see her ridiculous outfit at the soap awards?

Luna
12-05-2005, 11:12
Yeah seen it. She not helping herself any wearing things like that.

I actually like Katie Price but not Jordon I read her book when it came out and it really gets you to understand her and you can understand that Jordon is her job and not her life

god no!!! the pair of them should be banned from tv!!! this will ruin dr who

Pair?


That I can understand men going gar gar over her

I can't - I don't see the attraction myself - I don't think she's that pretty at all - and she just looks plastic - why would a man find that attractive?

And they seem to have done it (if it happens) out of pity because she didn't get eurovision - what kind of casting is that!

daisy38
13-05-2005, 13:19
She looks very plastic on TV but she is infact a very pretty lady! They plaster her with Make-up on Tv, left to do it herself she is very atractive! :D

Its speculation about how the Daleks survived. And if the Daleks survived, did the Time Lords survive as well?

Who saved the timelords? Was it Davros (creator of the Daleks)? The Dalek Emperor? Even the Master?

On a sidenote, there's a rumour going around that Adam is actually Davros ...

Bryan
13-06-2005, 11:05
this is one show i dont want to know spoilers for really

i'll wait and see what happens

What time period did The Doctor originally destroy the Dalek fleet in? Was it in the 100 year period between that destruction of Satalite 5 and the episode last Saturday? Did destroying the news satalite change history and prevent the last battle between the Daleks and the Time Lords?

18-06-2005, 20:41
I was kind of confused whether the Bad Wolf was teh TARDIS or Rose

di marco
18-06-2005, 20:51
i thought the bad wolf was the core of the tardis

JEHSTA
18-06-2005, 20:55
true yeh i didnt think about that

the thought must of past my mind

di marco
18-06-2005, 21:04
i think the bad wolf was the core of the tardis but it went into rose when she opened it up, if that makes sense

Abi
18-06-2005, 21:06
that would make sense. So the the doctor sort of "Gave it back" to the core of the tardis, after him and Rose kissed

di marco
18-06-2005, 21:25

19-06-2005, 10:10
totally wicked episode only 6 months until the next one!!!so rose was Bad Wolf???? didnt see that coming at all, it was so cool when she wiped out the daleks and saved the doctor, then he saved her!!! i think david tennants going to be a brilliant doctor, it was such a surprise seeing him last night.

i hope captin jack returns next series, he was pretty funny

total genius!!!

JEHSTA
19-06-2005, 10:47
yeh i wreckon captain jack should come back in the next episode

otherwise its gonna be boring anyway thats what i think

Abi
19-06-2005, 10:54
I reckon they should ave another "Captin Jack" type person in teh next series, but not hte same one.

Or go back in the next series and find an army of Captin Jacks, who wants revenge on Rose and the Doctor for leaving him there

Random or what?!?!?!

JEHSTA
19-06-2005, 11:01
lol :rotfl: nice one

but very wierd :lol: :lol:

Abi
19-06-2005, 11:03
They could be like Zombies or something- similar to the "are you my mummy?" episode. That would make me crack up in laughter!

Bad Wolf
19-06-2005, 11:26
November?!?!?! That's leaving it really late, might just buy them seperatly

they are doing it to get the xmas shoppers- biggest shopping time of the year, maximum sales

Abi
19-06-2005, 11:34
But by that time, people might not be as bothered about buying them.Its like getting a box set of Hells Kitchen or BB2 now, you might and proberly wouldn't bother.

Bad Wolf
19-06-2005, 11:35
they will put loads of extras on tho

19-06-2005, 11:48
so rose was Bad Wolf???? didnt see that coming at all, it was so cool when she wiped out the daleks and saved the doctor, then he saved her!!!

im confused now, i thought the core of the tardis was bad wolf and that it only entered rose when she opened it up? :confused:

Bad Wolf
19-06-2005, 11:51
im confused now, i thought the core of the tardis was bad wolf and that it only entered rose when she opened it up? :confused:

rose worked out that the phrase Bad Wolf linked her and the doctor, when the soul of the tardis entered her, she put markers through out time, reminding her not to let the doctor go, she could control life and death, she killed the daleks and brought captain jack to back to life

Abi
19-06-2005, 11:51
It was, and it was leaving bad wolf signs everywhere so that they had a link. When she looked into teh tardis she became teh bad wolf, but then the doctor took it back and gave it back to the tardis

now im totally confused 2 very different explanations! i thought it was what abi thought

Bad Wolf
19-06-2005, 11:55
i'm pretty sure its rose, when the tardis entered her she could see all of time and placed the markers, forcing her self to go back to satallite five and save the doctor

Abi
19-06-2005, 11:55
It wasn't Rose putting the arkers throughout time, it was the tardis, because as Rose said it can see everything in the past, present and future.

19-06-2005, 11:56
I think it was a fab eppisode but am going to miss christopher as i don't think i like the new doctor very much

Abi
19-06-2005, 11:58
I think it was a fab eppisode but am going to miss christopher as i don't think i like the new doctor very much

I reckon that David will be quite good. Him and Chris are really similar i thought, from just looking at the stuff they did before doctor who.

I rose leaving in the next series, or is she staying, cause i'm really confused bout that

Bad Wolf
19-06-2005, 11:58
It wasn't Rose putting the arkers throughout time, it was the tardis, because as Rose said it can see everything in the past, present and future.

but she also said she scattered the markers- that she through the tardis was the one, if it was the tardis the doctor would have known- but it was rose,

Abi
19-06-2005, 11:59
wasn't that the tardis talking through rose when she said about scattering markers, because she couldn't remember any f it. I thought that was just a human form of the core of hte tardis

Bad Wolf
19-06-2005, 12:01
iit was rose through the tardis, she took on its power so she could force it back to save the doctor, but she had ultimate control i think

Abi
19-06-2005, 12:04
really??

doesn't that mean that she now knows where they're going to go, and what they are going to do, because she put markers there?

Bad Wolf
19-06-2005, 12:07
not sure, the doctor said you couldnt simply go back and change history and stop it- you cant cross you own time paths or something- look what happened when rose saved her dad?????

~*~Leanne~*~
19-06-2005, 12:27
I rose leaving in the next series, or is she staying, cause i'm really confused bout that

I hope rose is staying as she is a great actress and it won't be the same if they both leave

Meh
19-06-2005, 12:39
The Bad Wolf was Rose. I think what gave it away was when she said "I am the Bad Wolf ..."

She simply used the vortex to put markers in space and time.

Bad Wolf
19-06-2005, 12:44
christmas is going to be ace this year!

i think david tennant is going to do brilliantly

Trinity
19-06-2005, 14:02
Gosh, I am late posting on this.

There is no Bad Wolf. When the time vortex entered Rose and she could see, 'every this that was, every thing that is and everything that could be', she realised that she has to send a message to herself to get her to go back to the Doctor.

She took the Bad Wolf sign form satalite five and scattered it through time and space as a message to herself.

So, she was the cause of the messages, but there is no Bad Wolf really.

Captain Jack and Rose have both now signed up for the whole of series 3. there is a christmas special first and then series 2 starts in March. Series 3 and a 2nd christmas special have already been comissioned.

David Tennant has a lot of teeth!

Weather hits Doctor Who ratings

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/40642000/jpg/_40642276_regenerate203.jpg Millions watched Doctor Who regenerate

Only 6.2m people tuned in to watch the last episode in the current series of Doctor Who on Saturday night.

The viewing figures were down on previous episodes of the series, which has been a ratings hit for the BBC.

But a spokeswoman for the BBC said the warm weather was a likely reason for less people watching TV indoors.

The final episode saw the Doctor - played by Christopher Eccleston - regenerate into the next Time Lord, David Tennant.

New series

The BBC spokeswoman said that, despite viewing figures being down, it was still the most watched television show of the evening, with a 41.8% share of the audience in the 1900-2000BST slot.

"Almost half of those watching television tuned in to Doctor Who," she said.

"It continues to be the most-watched television show on a Saturday night."

Casanova actor Tennant will become the 10th Doctor Who when the programme returns later this year.

His first words as the Time Lord were: "Hello. New teeth. Now where were we?"

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/40642000/jpg/_40642278_tennant203.jpg David Tennant made his debut as the Doctor



Billie Piper will be back for a second series as the Doctor's assistant, Rose Tyler.

Earlier this week the BBC announced there would be a third series in the current run of the drama, written by Russell T Davies.

Almost 3m people also watched Doctor Who: The Ultimate Guide, which preceded Doctor Who at 1815BST. Beverley Hills Cop attracted an audience of 2.8m when it was broadcast on ITV at 1830BST, and A Picture of Britain pulled in 1.4m on BBC Two at 1845BST. Just over 1m watched Battle of Britain on Five, while 1.3m tuned in to watch World's Biggest Airliner: Building the Airbus

Well here's DS's version:

HOT WEATHER MARS 'DOCTOR WHO' FINALE

http://images.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/library/160x120_bbc_doctorwho_s27e13_regeneration.jpg #Talking about my regeneration!#

Doctor Who concluded its run with a series low last night (Saturday), according to early figures.

The unusually hot weather led to the sci-fi series dropping to 6.19 million viewers, or a 41.8% audience share, between 7pm and 7.45pm.

A BBC spokesperson pointed out that the show was still the most-watched programme of the day and continued to be "king of Saturday evening."

Earlier, documentary Doctor Who: The Ultimate Guide had pulled in 2.77 million (23%) while on BBC Three, spinoff Doctor Who Confidential was multichannel's top draw at 677,000 (6.8%).

Casualty was the day's number two with 5.92 million (34.9%), while Murder in Suburbia ranked as ITV1's best-performing show with an average of 3.9 million (22.4%).

Elsewhere, Big Brother dipped to 2.4 million (13.5%), finishing fourth place in the 9pm hour (more (http://bigbrother.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds7916.html)).

19-06-2005, 17:28

She took the Bad Wolf sign form satalite five and scattered it through time and space as a message to herself.

So, she was the cause of the messages, but there is no Bad Wolf really.

Captain Jack and Rose have both now signed up for the whole of series 3. there is a christmas special first and then series 2 starts in March. Series 3 and a 2nd christmas special have already been comissioned.

David Tennant has a lot of teeth!
Thanks for the explanation. it makes sense to me now! lol. i thought it was a good episode overall. Not too sure about the new doctor but I'm sure he'll grow on me in the next series.

LOL. I think that Trinity's one makes most sense - when the time vortex entered Rose she could see the parst the future and all of time and she took the letters from the sign of the Bad Wolf and scattered them throughout time so that in the past she saw it written on the ground and that made her realise she had to go back to save the Doctor. Complicated or what...

Jojo
20-06-2005, 10:45
I understood that the Bad Wolf wasn't a bad thing or person, but like a messenger, which is why Rose scattered the words everywhere in order to remind her to go back and save the doctor. I thought I had all sorted in my head, till I read this thread. Russell T Davis says on a seperate bad wolf website, that there is a bad wolf though. It just wasn't a baddie like everyone thought. There is even a bit saying about what all of the clues are to who/what the bad wolf is and all of them point to Rose, but her being the wolf in a good way, ensuring the Daleks didn't end the doctors life and all of humanity as well!! :searchme: :hmm:

Surely that's a paradox?

Having the bad wolf as a mnemonic was dire. RTD could have done much more with it.

Absolutely - a circular reference if ever I saw one!

parts 1 1nd 2 are on dvd now, part 3 1st august and the box set (which looks like a tardis!!!) is out on 21st november

Meh

Wait for the box set as it is a Tardis.

They probably will repeat the series. The BBC are apparently thinking about letting people download episodes for a limited time after which they will expire. Not a bad idea imo.

Series Two and Three

Russell T Davies is quoted at CBBC Newsround about the 'scoop' for season two.

"A Christmas special this year, another series of 13 episodes in 2006, followed by another Christmas special and then 13 more episodes in 2007, which is very exciting," Davies says.

About villains: "Some great new stuff. Some famous old monsters called Cybermen will be coming back and they are as equally scary as the Daleks. They will marching onto your screens into 2006. Lots of new villains too and one or two favourite characters from this year as well. But at the same time the Christmas special has a brand new monster to fight, and that's gonna be good!"

About new planets: "I'm the one who has stopped us going off earth because I think you see an awful lot of shows, expensive good ones like Enterprise and Angel, where they go to another planet or dimension and it looks rubbish, it looks like California in the sunshine with a funny rock. I think that when stuff like Revenge of the Sith is doing the most beautiful planets, no matter what you think of the film, the planets are utterly beautiful and that's on a cinema budget which is a trillion times more than a television show would have. I think it's the hardest thing to do and I'm very wary of looking like rubbish because I think the moment the programme looks rubbish people point at it and laugh in a bad way. I'm very happy if people have fun with it and have a good laugh with it. When you have a bad laugh you've lost the faith and you've lost the audience."

About a story arc for the second season, like the "Bad Wolf" stuff: "Yes there is, and that word has already been heard on screen. And that's all I'm saying. You'll have to go back and trawl through 13 episodes to realise what I'm on about. You'll hear the word in the Christmas special though"

About the Christmas Special: "It's going to be 60 minutes long. It's the first story of the new Doctor played by David Tennant. I remember when I was young it's very strange when a new Doctor comes along, and that's exactly how Rose feels. Her mum gets involved again, but beyond that I can't give anything else away. It's as Christmassy as can be. It's got reindeer, it's got sleigh bells, it's got the works."

About Tennant and his native Scottish accent: "Well, every planet has a Scotland. You'll have to wait and see, there are big revelations on the way and I can't say any more than that."

About reaction to the show: "The thing we're most happy about is that we've got a new young audience watching. Research before we started said children won't watch because their mums and dads liked it. That was terrifying because we wanted a young audience and I especially wanted girls watching because science-fiction is very often seen as a boy's thing, which is why we have so many strong female characters. And a lot of strong emotion in it, because I think that gets girls watching. I'm delighted that young audience has latched on to it."

I resent that comment. By no means does Angel make other planets look like Cali in sunshine with a funny rock. :angry:

The christmas one should be good.

Yes, have you seen the bbc's trailers of dr who already? They're already counting it down. I just hope they don't overdo it and spoil it for the fans by over-advertising it. I'm in no doubt that it'll be better now it's been confirmed (in Heat magazine) that Billie Piper is sticking around for the whole of the second series and the 3rd series will take us right into 2007 at least.

Luna
14-10-2005, 14:41
Harry potter and the goblet of fire filming finished a couple of months before the filming started for doctor who. Plus he has a very small part in Harry potter so i dubt that would have taken up much time

Billie Piper has decided to quit Doctor Who, according to a report in The Mirror today.

The actress, who plays sidekick Rose Tyler, will not be returning for a third series due to fears that she may become typecast.

"She wants to strike while the iron's hot and make a big name for herself while she's so popular," a source told the newspaper. "She feels her profile will go down if the series isn't as big the third time around.

"The BBC are auditioning other girls to take over. They want to have the next actress all lined up when they announce Billie's departure. They are quite miffed about her decision. The casting people have been conducting secret auditions with a small number of actresses and keeping it very, very quiet.

"They are after a relative newcomer so this is the role which puts her in the public eye. It also means she's less likely to get bored after one series."

Piper is currently filming for series two of the sci-fi show, alongside new Time Lord David Tennant.

Should be interesting to find out what happens to her character!!

Billie Piper's character Rose will be killed off at the end of the second series of Doctor Who.

Following speculation over her role in the third series, producers appear to have confirmed to The Sun she will not be on board.

“Rose and I have gone on the most incredible journey over the past two years," she told the paper. "And I can confirm it comes to an end, for now at least.”

She will reportedly be killed off in a battle with the Cybermen as they try to invade earth in an episode called 'Doomsday'.

Writer of the show Russell T Davies said it was a shame to lose her. “It’s been a wonderful experience working with Billie," he commented. "We’ll miss her.”

and an even bigger loss that she if she is being killed off

Am i the only one thats found her annoying over the past few episodes?! She's become so samey, and not added anything to it. I think its about time they got rid, and got a new companion- as long as they're a good actress as well.

Yeah i suppose it is about time that the Doctor got a new companion, i am just disappointed that Rose is going! I think Michelle Ryan would be a good new sidekick for the Doctor! I just think she would fit into the show really well. :)

I see what you mean, i think she has been great in doctor who but thinking about what you said abi, i reckon if she'd of stayed in it any longer then she would of got boring.

It a shame I really like her character, but they have pretty much gone everywhere possible with the character. It will be nice to have a new companion though, he or she can inject a new lease of life into the series, I'm looking forward to it!

CATHERINE Tate is being lined up for a shock Doctor Who comeback, TV Biz can reveal.
The 40-year-old comedy queen, who played the Time Lord’s dippy sidekick Donna Noble, will reappear in one of four Who specials planned for next year.

And fans will be delighted — and a bit scared — to learn Life On Mars star John Simm, 38, is also back.

He will reprise his sinister role as The Master — the Doctor’s sadistic rival Time Lord who was last seen dying in his arch-enemy’s arms.

Bernard Cribbins, 79, who played Catherine’s on-screen grandad Wilf will be back as well.

A show source said: “Fans will be delighted to see Catherine back. She was one of the wackiest companions of all time and she brought heaps of humour.

“And it’s great to have John back — he and David Tennant have a real nemesis chemistry.”

The last episode of this year’s BBC1 series saw the Doctor wipe Donna’s memory and return her to her family.

But our source said: “Anything can happen in Doctor Who. His assistants are always recurring and Donna is no exception. When you’re a Time Lord you can go back to any point in history and meet whoever you want.”

Next year’s specials replace the normal series, suspended so that Tennant, 37, could take time out for stage roles.

But we hear the wild-eyebrowed Scot is close to signing for a new full series of the sci-fi hit for 2010.

Our source said: “David loves filming Doctor Who. The upcoming specials have given him more freedom to work on other projects this year and now he’s ready to come back to film a proper series to go out in 2010.”

far too soon! why set up the whole tate exit and make it so dramatic and emotional (we thought thats the end for ever, which is why we got so upset) only for her to come back so soon

same with Rose, she left, it was shocking and dramatic, and she came back too soon!

same with the Daleks!

Russel T + the new guy, need to keep these things under wraps for longer periods of time to create a bigger immpact

In lower school it stood for 'What I'm looking for' haha. Yeah I think this is a bit soon considering she was supposed to not be able to return. Rose did the same but she'd never had her memory wiped and it was two years for her. I'm looking forward to it though as I was just starting to really get to like the character just as she was about to leave.

How? This is what I wonder. Didn't the Doctor say that if she remembered just even the smallest bit, then it would kill her, her memory of him has been wiped etc, so is it just going to be a fleeting part in passing or what?? Its slightly confusing me tbh.

Kim
12-10-2008, 19:01
That's what I've been thinking. I think it's going to have to be that or there'd be a problem which the writers would need to explain since I assume Catherine doesn't want to return full time and Donna never wanted to leave the Doctor; she was begging him not to wipe her memories of all the things that they saw.

They can write around that though. They did say that Rose could never come back after series 2, but they wrote her into series 4 all the same.

And Wilf :cheer: WOOOOOOO!

Of course they can, they're writers after all - but with Rose, she went to the parallel world and the rift was opened allowing passage - how can Donna be involved with the Doctor, fully knowing who he is, if that is the case, without being killed, which is what they said would happen.

I just think its a bit soon apart from anything else - she was a great companion, but those are my doubts.

Matt Smith has been confirmed as David Tennant's successor in Doctor Who.

Aged 26, he will be the youngest ever actor to play the iconic role. His credits include political drama Party Animals and The Ruby In The Smoke, opposite former Who companion Billie Piper.

Of his casting, Smith said: "I'm flabbergasted. I haven't slept really! [Doctor Who] is an iconic part of our culture, and now I'm taking that on. It's nervewracking. Exciting. Exciting."

Smith will replace Tennant at the end of four Doctor Who specials, the last of which will air at the start of 2010. He will then go on to helm a full fifth series alongside a new companion, who is yet to be named.

Steven Moffat, who takes over from Russell T Davies as executive producer following the specials, said: "Literally from the first day, the second or third person we saw, it was him. He was spot on from the beginning.

"There is something quite old about him, so he looks quite young and old at the same time, which is important."

Tennant announced his decision to quit the long-running series in October 2008, saying that he did not want to "outstay [his] welcome". By the end of his tenure, Tennant will have appeared in three full-length series and eight specials.

Everyone thought David Tennant would be bad as the doctor when Christopher Eccleston left, and look at him now! So I think we just have to give him a chance.

Absolutely NOT impressed. He looks like he's about 17 years old and in a boy band. I think he's going to be a cocky Doctor.

Surley that makes it a bit more exciting. I was a little kind ooo no when i saw him, but the more you think about it the more i wanna just see what he is like on Dr Who.

03-01-2009, 22:37
He reminds me of that Adam from Series 2 of Torchwood. The Doctor on the whole having younger companions (Rose, Martha and Mickey and Adam if they count) will have to stop too, otherwise the companion would end up being about 15 or something!

I'm not sure about him either, although he seemed quite good in the clips they showed of him from other things.

Chloe O'brien
03-01-2009, 22:40
I'm not sure about him, but then I didn't think Mr Tennant would have been able to fill Chris Eccleston boots and looked what happened there. I'll give him a chance we may even grow to like him.

Jojo
03-01-2009, 22:42
Unsure about him, but mostly because he is far too young for me to lust after (but I don't find him attractive anyway - DT will remain in my heart for that for long to come :lol: )

Of course, I will give him the benefit of the doubt, until his debut etc - how many of us didn't like the thought of Catherine Tate, but loved Donna come the end.

04-01-2009, 00:44
As soon as he came on the TV i went "Who's that?!"

But i'm actually really pleased its him, because...

I have no idea who he is :p

I didn't know who David Tennant was before he got the part, and i think thats the best thing. We have no idea what his doctor is going to be like. He isn't so famous that he is stuck in a rut in terms of his acting. He will just get on with the job and probably be very thankfull for it.

The clips they showed of his past shows looked pretty good actually.

And i really don't think his age matters that much. He'll be 28 by the time it airs anyway :p With a good actor, you should see the character, not the actor. So if he's any good, we won't notice. Plus i've seen many a person be surprised that David Tennant is in his late thirties, because he acts much younger.

So i'm very chuffed i don't know who he is. Really excited to see what he's like now! :D

He seems quite good :) Well nice, you know, i like the fact he's pretty much unknown, and the young thing doesn't bother me...watching that 10 doctors programme William Hartnall (sp) was like 50 or whatever and that seems crazy old for doctor who ... but it worked, and i think this will work :) The Doctor is a rare role which can be reinvented and part of that is being different ages. And i think if he'd have been of a similar age to David there might be more of a comparison, and i dont really think you should compare .... because its kind of a whole new role if you get me
HOWEVER i still don't think i will prefer Matt to David as David = :wub: :p
Going to wait until 2010 to pass judgement upon Matt as the doctor!

I am the same - I didn't watch Cassanova, but saw the occasional preview.

I am looking forward to the new doctor - change is good!

The point was made earlier that many dreaded Catherine Tate being the new assistant - and yet she won us over as Donna Noble. This is also very true and we shouldn't pre judge the new doctor - so far the producers haven't let us down....

05-01-2009, 10:26

I think it's time for a lady Dr Who...:p

I heard a rumour that one of the upcoming specials will have the doctor getting ill and having a mini regeneration into a woman until he gets better at the end of the episode, that could be why there was talk of a lady doctor, and that they wanted either catherine zeta-jones, joanna lumley or jennifer saunders for the part.

But like i say it was just a rumour i heard and like alot of rumours could be false

Despite casting a relatively unknown actor as the new Doctor Who, it seems producers aren’t against having a famous face in the show.
Lily Allen has been named as a frontrunner to take over the role as the Time Lord’s assistant.

The BBC is reportedly keen to get a showbiz name in the new series to star alongside the eleventh Doctor, Matt Smith.

Executive producer Piers Wenger explained what he was looking for in a new assistant, saying: "Someone terribly exciting like Billie Piper, who was at the beginning of her acting career but who had a profile for other reasons, would be great.

“We are looking for someone whose light can burn brightly.We would never cast anyone on the basis of their celebrity, but if Lily wanted to audition we would be delighted. It would be a lot of fun."

The Smile singer was linked to the sought-after part in 2007 but lost out to Catherine Tate.

It’s also been reported that Strictly stars Rachel Stevens and Kelly Brook are interested in the role.

DALEKS are to take on the Nazis in the new series.




The next Time Lord Matt Smith, 26, will land his Tardis in the middle of World War Two.




And he will discover that Prime Minister Winston Churchill has an army of Daleks to fight the Germans.




He has had them painted in khaki and green battle colours.




And he has even added a Union Flag waving under their eye.




The Daleks will screech: “Ausrotten” the German for their famous cry: “Exterminate.”




But The Doctor and his new sidekick Amy Pond (Karen Gillan, 21) warn the PM not to trust the monsters. A show source said: “It’s going to be one of the most fantastic stories.




“Daleks, Churchill, Nazis, Hitler and Doctor Who‚ who can top that?




“The show’s writers know that bringing back the Daleks is always a ratings winner.”




The episode is being filmed in Wales and will not reach television screens until spring next year.




Viewers will see another familiar face return in the Time Lord’s wife-in-the-future River Song (Alex Kingston, 46).

Bond legend Sir Roger Moore is vying for a guest spot on Doctor Who - after learning his 007 protege Timothy Dalton has landed a part in a forthcoming Christmas special.

Dalton, who took over the reigns from Moore in 1987 to play the suave superspy in The Living Daylights and Licence To Kill, is set to appear in the cult sci-fi show as the mysterious character The Narrator in December.

After hearing his replacement was to star in the show, Moore has offered himself up to play Dalton's father.

He says, "I believe Timothy is to appear in one of the new episodes, so if they ever want anyone to play his dad, I'm available."

The logo - the eleventh incarnation in the show's history - will form part of a revamped title sequence in the new run, which airs from next Spring and sees Matt Smith take over from David Tennant as the titular Time Lord.

Showrunner Steven Moffat said: "A new logo. The eleventh logo for the eleventh Doctor - those grand old words, Doctor Who, suddenly looking newer than ever. And look at that, something really new - an insignia! DW in TARDIS form! Simple and beautiful, and most important of all, a completely irresistible doodle. I apologise to school notebooks everywhere, because in 2010 that's what they're going to be wearing."

AVID Tennant has landed a plum role in a US comedy as a neurotic lawyer.

The 38-year-old will play a top legal eagle in the new NBC show Rex Is Not Your Lawyer.

Rex, played by Tennant, suffers from panic attacks and coaches his clients to represent themselves in court.

A US source said: “At present it is scheduled as just a one-hour pilot episode but this could be a huge break for David Tennant.

“British actors are very popular at the moment on American TV and this show has ‘hit’ written all over it. If it proves popular then it will be turned into a series.”

David will be replaced as the Time Lord by Matt Smith, 27, next year.

He is back on screen as the Doctor on November 15 but his last episodes will be screened at the end of the year.

He admitted: “I think it’s better to go when there’s a chance that people might miss you, rather than to hang around and outstay your welcome.”

David has also starred as Barty Crouch Junior in Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, and will appear in St Trinian’s 2: The Legend Of Fritton’s Gold.
