It's official! According to BBC Exec, Sam Hodges "Doctor Who is returning. Fourteen new episodes have been commissioned with Matt Smith as The Doctor".The news was confirmed minutes later by Lord Moff himself, who tweeted "14 eps and Matt definitely. I've got a plan and I'm not telling you what it is. Now hush or River shoots you with her Spoiler Gun."
No news yet on Karen Gillan or Arthur Darvill. But another full season of Matt Smith is great news indeed. Hurrah for bow ties!

Bow-ties are cool.
ReplyDeleteAnd fezzes. And let's not forget that Stetsons are also cool.
ReplyDeleteThis is great news! I had heard Matt Smith was considering jumping ship. I'm glad he reconsidered.

ReplyDeleteExcellent news.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to 2012 with Doctor Who on my screen.
Woohoo! More beer for the robots!
ReplyDeleteI just wish they wouldn't do that stupid mid-season break thing everyone else does these days. At least it hasn't been cancelled anyway. This is just about the only sci-fi show still going isnt it?
Billie I think it was just rumours that Matt was considering leaving. Everyone from the Moff to the guy himself has denied it and its looking like he's totally loving playing the Doctor.
ReplyDeleteThis is superb news. I hope we have Matt and the Moff for many years to come!
