On that. Do people think The Doctor will have already collected Jack when the new series starts or will it be some time into the series?

For someone who seems to be on the pulse of this sort of thing, you don't half missed stuff. Its been confirmed that CJ is not going to be in from the start of series 3, but will be picked up near the end of the series.

Just read that "Saxon" Has been seen as early as "love and Monsters" Didn't realise that it had appeared that early.

Looks like it's going to be quite a massive story arc with him. </BLOCKQUOTE>

Where abouts in L&M Gregg?

Quite looking forward to season 3, despite Heroes just compounding how much I miss Eccleston as the Doctor. </BLOCKQUOTE>

SFX says it was on a newspaper headline.

Doctor Who set for fourth series

Doctor Who will return for a fourth series in 2008, executive producer and writer Russell T Davies has confirmed.
Speaking at the premiere of the third series in London, Davies said: "Series four is officially existing. I'm very excited, but we have known for ages."

But he refused to say whether the star of the hit sci-fi show, David Tennant, would return in the lead role.

The third series, which co-stars Freema Agyeman as new assistant Martha Jones, starts on BBC One on 31 March.

Her character replaces former assistant Rose Tyler, who was written out at the end of the second series after Billie Piper decided to leave the show.

"Billie did a tremendous job," said Agyeman. "I know no-one likes change but the nature of the show is change and hopefully fans will be cool with that and give me a chance."

Davies spoke glowingly of his new star. "I just think people will open their hearts and let her in - they'll love it."

Kiss

Stars including Jonathan Ross, Jo Whiley and Fame Academy coaches David and Carrie Grant attended the premiere in central London.

They saw the first episode of the latest series, which sees Doctor Who share a kiss with his new assistant.

But Tennant, who plays the time-travelling hero, would not talk to reporters about his role in future series.

"Do you know how many times I have been asked that question? Do you know how many times I have answered it?" said the actor.

He was more willing to speak of his affection for Cardiff, where the hit series is filmed.

"Cardiff is a great city and has been very good to us," he said. "It's lovely to film there because everyone is so enthusiastic.

"You try filming in London and everyone's so mean about it and complains that there is a huge camera truck parking in their street.

"Everyone in Cardiff seems to welcome us with open arms. God bless you all, frankly."

I didn't get to where I am today by being picked up at the begininning of series...

[retired_Christia17]

Apparantly The Mirror ran a story yesterday confirming that Tennant is in the whole of the fourth series. If this is true then I expect that to be his last. Would mean that he's done three full series - the same as Hartnell, Troughton, Davison and McCoy.

There's also a new trailer on the BBC site.

Roll on next Saturday at 7pm. Even Scooter can't spoil the excitement levels building in me...

Freema goes commando

Serpico - Maybe it's time the series two thread was taken off the forum header and replaced with this one?
