I really have only this to say!
New series rocks, was sad to hear that Chris E would be leaving but I am now full of hope since I read this a few minutes ago: David Tennant will take over from departing actor Christopher Eccleston for the second series of "Doctor Who" to be aired in 2006, according to a BBC press release issued Saturday morning just after midnight UK time. Tennant was originally rumored to be "in talks" to take over the role from Eccleston, who it was announced in late March would not be returning for the second season. As the Doctor, Tennant will be seen in the role in this year's Christmas special, as well as continuing in the role throughout the entire second series (and hopefully, many years to come.) Billie Piper, who plays Rose Tyler, is already signed on for the second year of adventures.
w00t!
