 Nice! And, yeah, this week's episode was strong in the old school way. The mellow pace actually gave it some real heart. Can't wait for the second part...

http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2001320029-2007250185,00.html Doctor Who to get axe in 2008 HIT show Doctor Who will be EXTERMINATED next year — after the fourth series.
Boss Russell T. Davies has decided to axe the BBC1 sci-fi drama and concentrate on other projects.
He and senior staff have hatched a plot to hand in a group resignation in summer 2008.
A source said: “The heavy workload — nine months of 16-hour days every year — has started to take its toll.
“It was decided the best thing for the show was go out at the top next year.”
Davies was behind the relaunch of Doctor Who in 2005 — 16 years after it was originally axed.
The series, starring David Tennant as the Time Lord, is watched by eight million every Saturday.

Too bad it's not his call. BBC will just get a new team to come in and keep one of their highest rated shows going.

Davis does not own the rights to Doctor Who and has absolutely no say as to whether the show will continue or stop.
Stupid wanker.
He has an incredibly annoying voice and his mouth moves annoyingly when he talks.
I had to turn off the confidential episodes on series 2 as he annoyed me so much!

http://www.gallifreyone.com/cgi-bin/view...style=feedstyle MediaGuardian.co.uk, the media news-focused section of The Guardian newspaper's website, has today run a story (subscription link) by reporter Ben Dowell speculating about the possible future of Doctor Who showrunner Russell T Davies.
The piece, in reponse to a story published in this morning's edition of the tabloid newspaper The Sun, contains a quote from an unnamed "BBC drama spokeswoman", stating that: "Discussions have not begun so we cannot say if Russell will be involved or not" with Doctor Who beyond the end of the fourth series in 2008.
However, the report specifically denies The Sun's story that Davies and other staff on the show have a plan to end the programme at the conclusion of the fourth series. MediaGuardian quotes another source, a similarly unnamed "senior BBC Wales drama source", as telling them that:
"Russell has always said that he wouldn't be with the show forever and he has made no secret that the hours are quite exhausting... But there isn't any way it would be axed even if he left. He loves the show and he does feel that maybe it would benefit from some new blood."
The MediaGuardian states that "if Mr Davies does leave Doctor Who, the BBC will want to keep such a popular show going by bringing in a new executive producer to take over his creative responsibilities."

Freema Agyeman Axed From ‘Doctor Who’?It’s only been eight episodes since Freema Agyeman (Martha Jones) took over the role of The Doctor’s companion following the departure of Billie Piper’s Rose Tyler at the end of the second season. But apparently that’s all the BBC needs to see. However, Agyeman's site and the BBC have denied such reports.
According to The Sun newspaper in Scotland, the show's chiefs are a little underwhelmed by the performance Agyeman has given despite all-round strong reviews from critics. The newspaper said the BBC was disappointed in her work in later episodes of the third season which have yet to be broadcast in the United Kingdom, citing that “her performance is not as strong as in her earlier episodes.”
And unfortunately for Martha there won’t be a happy ending as, according to the newspaper, there is a storyline set where she will become lost in time with The Doctor unable to find her. This, of course, may ring a few bells with fans of the series who watched Rose Tyler finish with a similar fate as she becomes stranded in an alternate world following the events of “Doomsday," the second season finale of the show that marked Piper's departure.
“Freema is very talented but we don’t think she is just right on ‘Doctor Who,’” a source told the newspaper. “None of this is being done with any malice. Freema’s a lovely girl.”
A spokesperson for the series refused to comment on the report, however if true, this marks the third casting change the series has seen, after Christopher Eccleston left the show after only a year and Piper departed at the end of the second season.
Agyeman herself has spoken out on how difficult it was to break into the show, but praised her co-star David Tennant as a wonder to work with. During the audition phase in Cardiff, Wales, the actor reportedly left a note of encouragement and good luck for her at her hotel.
The BBC said in a statement that while "it is absolute rubbish that Freema Agyeman has been axed or sacked from 'Doctor Who,'" the network does "not comment on future storylines."
Agyeman's fan Web site released a statement saying that "having failed to cash in on their attempts to damage her established co-star, David Tennant, by trying to ignite and ride on rumors of his impending departure from 'Doctor Who,' The Sun has turned their eye to a far easier target, an actress who has barely gotten her momentum going in mainstream media and therefore can less easily defend herself."
The statement went on to say that showrunner Russell T. Davies has said in past interviews that he has yet to plan the winter Christmas special nor Season 4, and also that there is no one high enough in the BBC chain that would know of any such decisions that would speak on condition of anonymity. At the same time, however, the site said that "solid sources" it could not name assure them that The Sun's article is "completely false."
The site also is calling for a boycott of the newspaper, and thanked fans for their "loyalty to Freema."
The Sun has provided considerable coverage to the revitalized “Doctor Who” series since its launch in 2005, providing first look photos of both the Daleks and Cybermen. They also were among the first to announce that Piper would be leaving the series last year.
"Doctor Who" currently is airing its third season with Agyeman and Tennant Saturdays on BBC One, while it's expected to make its way to the United States in July on the SciFi Channel.

To be honest, it was always gonna be difficult for anyone to replace Piper.
Unlike previous companions, Piper had been sort of the glue of the show as she was the only constant of the first two series.
I the past, companions might have worked with different Doctors, but the Doctor was always the focal point of the show, which of course he still is now, but as the original run was a lot of years, it was very easy to phase one companion out and replace them with another.
As the new Doctor Who had a huge gap in its schedule from the original run, they didnt have the comfort zone of the show being long running, and the fact that (excluding McGann) no Doctor has ever lasted as short a time as Eccleston, they kinda put a lot of emphasis on Rose.
I mean how many shows from the first two series revolved around her, her life and her family?

No doubt. Rose, Mickey, Captain Jack Harkness, and the Ninth Doctor. That's the team to beat. Those guys were legend together.
BTW, watch that video at the bottom of the post...

Once again, that's Syfyportal simply reporting on a tabloid article The Sun ran. Until the BBC says outright it's true, I wouldn't buy it.
And, for me, Agyeman rocks. She's confident, fresh, smart, and mature. Everything Rose wasn't. And it works perfectly. Not to mention, she's fucking hot...

Be sure to show that to Cross. He's obsessed with her and Starbuck from the new Battlestar Galactica. Seeing a pattern in his tastes?

Fuck yes!! Season Two kind of wore me down. But, Season Three has been kick-the-fuck-ass so far. The only weak episodes have been the two-parter Daleks one. That simply blew balls. Yet, every other episode around it has blossomed into gold.
Can't WAIT for the end of the season! I have a feeling 'you-know-who' is waiting for The Doctor...
