Doctor Who signs up for a third series

David Tennant as Doctor WhoThe publicity bandwagon has started rolling in to town for the much-anticipated second series of Doctor Who, which will mark Scots actor David Tennant's first full season in the guise of the famous time-traveling Gallifreyan.

Most of the main U.K. media outlets and tabloid newspapers are gearing up for the launch of season 2 (date still to be announced) with a variety of interviews and features concentrating on the forthcoming series.

However, today's main news surrounded David Tennant agreeing to play The Doctor well into a third series, and perhaps beyond -- along with his companion, Rose Tyler, played by Billie Piper.

The new series will see the return of The Doctor's trusty side-kick robotic dog K-9, and a re-vamped version of the silver-suited arch-enemies, The Cybermen.

TV Squad will be reviewing each episode of the new series when it kicks off here in the U.K., so keep your browser pointed in this direction for every last spoiler and plot twist.

I've heard vague rumours that the BBC might be interested in a K-9 series, possibly with Liz Sladen as Sarah Jane, reviving an old idea they had from the 1970s. Nothing concrete though.

Worry not. K-9 is in only one episode along with Sarah Jane Smith. I think it's ep. 3

I already miss Eccelston (even though I am only on episode 10 of series 1) but I have high hopes for Tennant. I hope K-9 doesn't stick around too long. Man that thing even bugged me as a kid when I had my highest amount of disbelivable suspension.
