Tune into BBC3 over the weekend, as they’ll be continuing their repeats of David Tennant’s first series.

Tonight on the channel, the Doctor, Rose, Mickey and Sarah Jane investigate a London school being haunted by strange, bat-like creatures in School Reunion from 7pm, followed by an attack from sinister clockwork killers in The Girl in the Fireplace at 7:45pm. Tomorrow night, at 7pm, the TARDIS is trapped on a parallel Earth, and just in time to witness the Rise of the Cybermen. Prepare to be deleted!

You can catch up with the early adventures on BBC iPlayer. Feels like only yesterday…

david-says-that-he-hasnt-had-any-phone-calls

As David Tennant keeps himself busy promoting his latest film, Fright Night, he has once again been asked about the chances of a Doctor Who return for its 50th anniversary.

He has previously said that it’s “not impossible” he’ll be back for the landmark year, but has told NOW Magazine that he hasn’t “had any phone calls yet”. He said: “I’m sure something will be celebrated, but I haven’t had any phone calls yet.” He added that he hopes his assocation with the series will stay with him for the rest of his career.

He explained: “There is a generation now who see Doctor Who as something to be absolutely celebrated. Tom Baker, who played the Fourth Doctor in the 70s, talks now about how he’s employed solely by people who grew up loving him. I pray to god I’ll be enjoying the same thing in about 20 years’ time. That’s fine by me.”

Fright Night, in which David appears as magician Peter Vincent, is out in cinemas now.

david-says-a-future-comeback-isnt-impossible

David Tennant has revealed that, while there are no current plans for him to make a return, he hasn’t completely ruled out a Doctor Who comeback at some point in the future.

“Not impossible, but no plans at the moment,” he explained during a recent interview with Total Film. “People keep telling me they’ve read online I’m coming back, but believe me, if that happens I’ll be the first to tell everyone, I’ll be shouting about it very loudly.” He made his final appearance as the Tenth Doctor in The End of Time, Part Two.

He continued: “I am very proud of the show and I am aware it casts a long shadow professionally, but I’m happy about that. It is a shadow wearing a cool, long coat!”
