[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] Yes - what's sure to be all six episodes of the season. :p Actually, that's something of a worry for me. BBC shows are often known for their great writing but low production values and short seasons. Great BBC shows like "Coupling" and "Red Dwarf" are limited to six or eight episodes per season, and even a top-rated BBC drama like "Spooks" has only ten episodes in its second season (the first was six). Heck, Doctor Who started out with FORTY THREE episodes in a season, and by its final four seasons it was down to thirteen half-hour episodes a year. Certainly nothing to match Hollywood's standard of 22 or 26 episodes a season, regardless of length. I'm all for quality over quantity, but even still... While I'm at it, I figure that this forthcoming radio/animation Doctor starring Richard E. Grant as the ninth Doctor will will fall into the realm of the various "alternate" doctors that occur over hiatus. There's the Dalek movies featuring "Dr. Who", and a stage play with Trevor Martin as the fourth Doctor in the hiatus following Jon Pertwee's departure from the show and before they found out he'd be replaced by the dude with the scarf. Not to mention Doctors 9-13 played by Rowan Atkinson, Hugh Grant, Richard Grant (again) and the rest of those actors (Including a woman!) - mind you, this is a good thing. :) Mark [/QB][/QUOTE]
