Well, that's the odd thing; one of the main things that caused this thing to be rumoured before it was confirmed is because Tennant is unavailable for filming for an '09 series due to stage appearances next year.
Of course, that would imply that they need Tennant, which in turn implies he'll still be around in '10.
It's very likely RTD will be gone by then, though, and previous comments from DT have suggested he might be gone by then as well so maybe the year off is not for that reason at all. One way or another, though, DT has been booked up for stage work for sometime.
The specials are not rumoured, btw, they are confirmed.
some nice pics floating about from series 4
and great news that a series of vintage era Who figures will go on sale next year
about time
- Character Options have announced the first in the new Classic Series range of figures. The first wave will include four single releases and two twin packs. There is currently not a release date. The list is still under negotiations and approvals, but Wave 1 is currently slated to include:
The Fourth Doctor in his Red velvet jacket from the story Revenge of the Cybermen. This figure will include two interchangeable heads - one with the hat, one without.
The Fifth Doctor with short hair as seen in the story Resurrection of the Daleks.
The Sixth Doctor in his patchwork frock coat with short hair as seen in Attack of the Cybermen.
A Sea Devil complete with string vest.
A Zygon with the Skarassen control device.
Voc Robots from The Robots of Death. This twin pack will include SV-7 (Super Voc) and D-84 (Dum Class).
Magnus Greel and Mr Sin from Talons of Weng Chiang will be the second twin packx
Exiting news today because John Levine has been added to Collectormania in Manchester
What with Elisabeth Sladen and Nic Courtney at Blackpool next month to add to my Tom Baker signed ROBOT dvd this will be another good addition to this dvd cover.
Ill post pics of both conventions.

WHOO HOO!
Surley they will use cgi to make Davidson look younger
Troughton looked ancient in the TWO DOCTORS
Anyone see the new Who magazine cover with Davidson??
Lardy!
Liz Sladen has pulled out of the convention im going to this saturday due to "work commitments"
I wonder if the rumours of her being in the next series finale helping the Doctor alongside Rose and another assistant to take on Davros are true?
I spose it doesnt matter how he looks
i guess its on the level of the SW hol special and i guess it doesnt take place between the last ep of series 3 and the xmas special
shame they couldnt save the idea for the show and get Ecclestone and Mcgann back
but i guess Ecclestone aint the type for that kind of thing

Awesome! The Sontarans were about as brutal and awesome as you could get!
Just got back from Collectormania where i met the lovely KATY MANNING aka JO GRANT and JOHN LEVINE aka SGT BENTON who were both really nice,chatty and friendly.
Katy indicated she had recorded quite a large amount of commentary work for dvds recently so i guess most of her Pertwee era episodes are on their way next year,
To top the day off we spotted Russell T Davis in M and S in Manchester city centre .I showed him my signed pics of Jo and Benton and thanked him for resurrecting Who.
Top bloke.

Not much of a spoiler as im sure itll be everywhere by tea time
I guess The Suns "Doctor Who and three assistants" take on Davros rumours may be true then.
Nice new Christmas episode image up
