BBC1 announced yesterday that they are devolping a new series of "Doctor Who", possibly to appear in 2005.

The series is to be written by Russell T. Davies, creator of the original British "Queer As Folk" series, an "absolute Doctor Who fanatic". Despite the worried reactions of a few, a spokesperson for the Beeb did not expect a gay Doctor.

Possible candidates for the title role include Richard E Grant, who is appearing in a BBC internet version of Doctor Who; Paul McGann, who starred in the 1996 Fox version; and Alan Davies, who has been linked to the role in the past.

...and the whole country is agog. Main radio topic. Front page news on the Daily Telegraph (the main story was on Pg 3.) Hysterical. My money is on Davies. It's going to start as a 6 part mini-series, from what I've gathered.

Keen.
