Written by: Michael Hickerson (SoSF Staff Journalist)
As series three of “Doctor Who” winds up this evening in the UK (it hits US airwaves next Friday on SCI FI), yesterday’s Daily Mirror has details about casting for series four.
This information is SPOILERish in nature for series four. It won’t (necessarily) ruin any of the last episodes of series three, but if you don’t want to know anything, set your TARDIS coordinates elsewhere on the Slice of SciFi web site….
The big news is that the TARDIS crew will be growing next year. A new companion will enter the scene, but it won’t be as a replacement for Martha Jones. Martha will still be a part of the series, as well as appearing in series two of “Torchwood.” But her role will be changing in the coming season.
A show insider reveals: “Martha will still be in Doctor Who, but her relationship with the Doctor will have changed. The truth is that she loves him but he doesn’t feel the same way. She is going to have to share him because he’ll be getting a different sidekick. And this is a major addition to the cast.”
Martha will not be appearing in the upcoming Christmas special. Rumors and speculation have it that pop-singer Kylie Minogue will be appearing in the role of a companion for that story. (This has not been confirmed and there are lots of rumors, sightings and various reports that indicate this could be a strong possibility. If we find out something definite, we will let you know).
It’s not yet been revealed if the new companion is male or female.
Series four will be a time of transition for the show. Executive producer Russell T. Davies is due to step-down at the end of the series and the contract for David Tennant as the Doctor is up at the end of series four. Tennant has not confirmed that he’s staying or leaving the role of the famous Time Lord.
Despite all the transitions (which the show has survived many such transitions in its long run) the future for the show on the BBC looks good.
Jane Tranter, the head of drama at the BBC said, “One thing is certain, Doctor Who will be around on BBC1 for years to come.”
Bronzethumb (from Australia) says
Somehow, I’m not buying it. These papers have been predicting the end of the series for years now, so I’m gonna take this with a grain of salt.
Partsguy74 says
Can anyone say “Rose”… It’s been hinted at all season 3. The doctor still misses Rose terribly.
Michael says
Please dear heavens, no….leave Rose where she is!
Bronzethumb (from Australia) says
I agree. I commented this on a different story; Martha is far better suited for the Tenth Doctor than Rose ever was.
mary adams says
don’t know why may e-mail is this but i think mark wahlberg will make a good companion he is hot also bring adam back
Heather says
i’ve prefered martha frm smith and jones! she is more in the doctor’s league than rose. cant wait to c her in torchwood. it might be nice to c rose bac though.
Alvina says
Heya, OMG I LOVE DAVIID TENNANT!!!! i dont want him to go, but it cant be kylie minogue, i reckon it’ll be something to do with titanic, hense the teaser, maybe Learnado D Caprio or someone??? HU KNOWS we cant judge, anywayz Dcotor who’s amazing and i cant wait for series 4.
Alvina ๐
josh says
i think rose should go in!!!! martha is pathetic. she cant even spell her own name.Im sorry but bring rose back!!!!!!!!
kerry says
I can’t believe you lot talking bout Rose that way she was great and you can still see in the Doctors eyes he still misses Rose, I theres a chance that Billie can come back she should take it because shes such a talented actress and she played the character Rose extremly well, im not saying that Freema is rubbish I think she’ll brill too but you have to admit David and Billie , The Doctor and Rose have so much more chemistry, I hope Rose does come back some how and then her and the Doctor can be together forever and then Martha should go of with Cpt. Jack I think they make a really nice couple (even tough his gay but you never know lol) please dont put the chracter Rose down just because you like Martha better, there both great companions and they should both be on Doctor Who, but personaly i’ll be really upset and feeling down if Rose doesn’t come back at least at the end of season 4 I’d love it if they ended Doctor Who nicely with Rose and The Doctor together.
Sorry I wrote alot, I just feel alot.
Kerry ๐ x
kerry says
O yh and don’t say Martha is pathetic because she obviously isn’t shes clever, pretty and kind, but she’s still not Rose but thats no reason what so ever to put her down.
Freema your an amazing actress and so is your chracter even if she is confuzzeled.
kerry says
Hey im glad about this whole thing I think it will be good for the character Martha to have a break from all those adventures and remember i don’t think you should all complain about Martha not being in the Christmas special because at least she’s coming back be great full, and what im about to say next will properly make you all angry lol, well….
I think it would be great if Rose came back, The Doctor and her had so so so much chemistry and yes so does Martha and the doctor but not as much as Rose you have to admit that , Can you imagine the Doctors face when he sees Rose the grin beaming across his face he has to say I love you back, and I know you all think his over Rose but in some episodes (this is why David is such a good actor) you can see in The Doctors eyes he still thinks about her a lot.
I hope you can understand were im coming from, sorry I wrote a lot I just feel so strongly about this topic and I don’t know why cos’ its not even real anyway im going on x
Kerry xx (p.s great actress Freema, Billie and great actor David and John!)
Phil says
Sally Sparrow anyone?
Lambo says
I agree with Phil…. I would love to see Sally returning
kerry says
OMG! good point it could be sally!
Mokeyfrog says
I want Billie back…!!!
Amanda says
Remember in Stargate SG-1 when they “killed off” Daniel and then brought him back a year later? That was all down to fan campaigning. So if we want Rose back, let’s get together and pressurise the BBC! ๐
dreamer says
Yeah, Billie Piper was so awesome! Even though I thought Freema was great, her character never seemed to fit well with the Doctor. And I’m not really looking forward to the new companion, I’m not sure she’ll fit either. Bring Rose back!
TARDIS Insider says
According to one (popular) website, Catherine Tate – Donna Noble (from “The Runaway Bride”) will return to journeying with the Doctor in Series 4. Apparently Martha will come aboard the TARDIS around half-way through the season (after a stint on Torchwood). There are rumors that Jack will be venturing into Time and Space on the odd occasion.
And let’s just hope that lots more “classic” monsters return for the new series (I’ve heard – inconformed by the BBC – rumors regarding The Rani, The Monk and the Ood crossing paths with the Doctor again…)
TARDIS Insider says
Apologies for the typing error “inconformed”: should read UNCONFIRMED!
yana MASTER says
The 10th dr is better than all the other drs.
I already know that Kylie monough is going to be in the christmas invasion of series 4 and the next assistant of series 4 is Catherine tate a.k.a donna noble.
I think it good that billie/rose left but don’t call me crazy because if think thay should meet in series 4 and i think freema/martha is much better than billie/rose.
it really sad that the dr has no 1 in his famaliy any more. OH YER! i forgot freema/martha meets the dr in series 4. Ijust think series 4 is ganna be GREAT!
-yana MASTER- DR WHO IS THE BEST SHOW IN THE WORLD!!!
yana MASTER says
IF YOUR THINKING “how does he know all a this?” i watch it over and over again.
and read books about it and more…
conan says
i heard some where i cant remember where(might have been in a newspaper) the kylie minogue will b in the christmas special as a cyberwoman
ps rose is better than freema by far and its obvious that the doctor likes her better. i hope rose comes back in series 4
but amanda ur sayin if we pressurise the bbc rose will come back well the truthis the bbc cant make billie piper come back if she doesnt want to and if u llok up why rose left ull see im right
natalie says
hey i also think Billie should com back 2 dr who! she is brillient!! i think that also insted of gettin rid of Freema that rose has human particals as well and dr takes then out an rose stays an then rose an martha could come along as compenions!! russil u r the best an David u r the best dr i’ve seen!! i’m from W.A!!
Daniel Hider says
where has this rose thing came from i want catherine tate as the assistant. But rose would be brill as well!
Hannah the Spanna says
bring back rosei was heart brocken when rose got stuck in aparrelel world and the doctor raly misses her so bring her back ……. i dont raly like matha or donna keep them out
Hannah the Spanna says
any 1 hear to talk about bili she has got to come back to see the doctor again ang matha or donna will get jelios and leave
Hannah the Spanna says
love with doctor and ros any1 xxxx
Hannah the Spanna says
sorry eror rose
Hannah the Spanna says
sarah__jane any 1
Natalie says
As much as i like Freema Agyman i really dnt like her character Martha and i cnt believe shes going in Torchwood!!!! but its only 3 episoded so thats ok and i agree..Rose should come bak!!! she has to. I also heard that n the last episode of dr who series 3 ther was that man who was martha’s friend he was a dr or sommet anyway he might appear in series 4 aswell as catherine tate.
secretsource says
rose will not come back for 3 reasons
1- she is in a parralell universe so cant
2- billie has given up her career and is relaxing
3- i heard billie was pregnant! any1 know if thats true?
and while the doctor and martha have less chemistry its because the doctor still loves rose and i have heard other rumours that catherine tate comes back perhapos she is the other sidekick? or could it be joh barrowmen or pehpas sally sparrow – though she has a boyfrined so wouldnt want to leave him would she?
Jordan Craig says
Below are some facts about series 4 –
.Kylie Minogue will be part of the 2007 christmas special “Voage of the damned”
.Catherine Tate will be the Doctors new companion for all 13 episodes starting from series 4
.Freema Agyeman will be returning halfway threw series 4 to reprise her role as Martha Jones once again
.The Odd are set to make a return
Now they are all facts confirmned by the Doctor Who team now hear are some rumours –
.Martha Jones will when comeing back as the Doctors companion have a boyfriend who is Tom Milligan from series 3 finale “Last of the time lords”
.David Tennant is to leave the show so the Doctor would logically regenerate.
Now these are just rummours so i would just take them with a pinch of salt.I also apolligise if the “facts” that ive put up are incorect which i would like to say has not been done perpously but by error or miss reading.
For series 4 i would love to see Billie Piper return as the Doctors companion but it is highly doutful. I would love to also see another old enemy of the Doctors return which is likely because RTD has stated in Doctor Who Confidential episode 13 that hes had a plan of “iconic” monsters he wanted to bring back and theres going to be some more for series 4. The Rani or Davros would be my bet as these are well known and why shouldnt he as hes brought so many old monsters back in the past series even some whom arent known well such as the Makra. The Rani is definetly my est bet to come back thow as she is just as cunning and manipulative as the Master.
Jordan Craig says
This is a ansewer for SecretSource (July 27th, 2007 at 9:50pm) Ive just heard in The Daily Mail that Billie Piper is getting married today (28/07/07) and only close family and friends know. It also shows a picture of her with a engaygement ring on so if it is trueit is again highly doubtful she will return to Doctor Who but maybe she would appear in one episode or aepisode of Torchwood?
But a couple of mounts ago i read in a newspaper that she was going to a appear in a Doctor Who spin of in America where theres a Doctor on the parallel world who she works with. Does anybody have any update on this subject because if they do can you pleace comment thank you.
Jordan Craig says
Wouldnt it be great if we could have a woman companion who we havent allready saw before!
Freema Agyeman – Played Adola in series 2
Catherin Tate – Played Donna Nobale in 2006 christmas special “The runaway bried” (Note:Freema Agyeman played a different charicter before series 3 bu Catherin Tate still plays the same charicter)
But i think they may do this on purpose so the younger aidience have got a sense of the charicter already and so the production team know if they can really anticipate a new companion so they know if the actor is good enoth for the role.
The Doc says
Doctor Who has been sensational all the way through!! The Doctor and his faithful companions (Rose, Martha, Mickey etc etc)have over the years wowed me tremendously!
My Biggest dream would be to join them on their advetures and meet the lengendary Doctor (David Tennant) in person along with Rose and Martha. I strongly agree with all of you that Rose should return because she has been missed terribly by the audience. I look forward to the next series with Catherine Tate and the Doctor. It shall be absoluetly FANTASTIC!!!! Doc
the doctor says
i want rose back
the doctor says
bring her back and make it a surprise for the old 903 year old doctor
the doctor says
rose should come back but can the epasode she comes back in have paul mcgann christor eclston and david tennant in it
903 says
come back rose come back martha 2 but keep donna out
Docta who fan says
I dont think rose should come back. If she were it tempt the makers of the current series to add in pointless drama between Martha and rose.
lucy says
okay
you know that dalek that escaped
yes well it will want the other daleks back
the ones trapped in the void
and they will go to any length to get them
its the void, it can be opened. some way or another.
and them who watched torchwood.
it mentioned a missing torchwood? that torchwood is on the parrell world. and if i remember correctly he said
“torchwood 1 got destroyed in the battle. torchwood 2 was in glasgow. this is torchwood 3 and torchwood 4 is missing but we will find it one day”
Also the bbc keep questioning the reunion
“will the doctor ever see rose again?”
if she wasnt coming back for certain they wouldnt even question it.
series 4 or 5 i reakon.
also, well lets just say martha played by freema has be slated for her acting by the newspapers saying she isnt half as good as rose. I agree in ways but in some ways i think she was alright for the show. Not as good as Billie but “rose” is a hard role to follow.
oh yeah, that whole badwolf thing never really ended.
remember in tooth and claw the wolf said to rose
“theres something of the wolf about you. you burn like the sun”
And with jack, that hasnt really been concluded. He is needed for something else, the writers wouldnt just keep it like that.
In torchwood he said
“Its like they need me for something”
THEY!
meaning rose aswell, not just the doctor.
Billie to return! well, i have a feeling she will anyway
Xena says
I HATE MARTHA! I WANT ROSE BACK!!!!!
Natalie says
Someone said before that ROSE WAS NOT COMING BACK INTO DOCTOR WHO and the reason was that she is in a parallel universe and the doctor cant go back. Well, according to the doctor in series 2 when they arrived at the parallel universe it was impossible that they were there in the first place!! so ye… anybody else hate martha!!!!!
Andrew says
Does anyone else think that if there was a parallel cyberman race (they were seen in the museum in episode 6 series 1) and a parallel tourchwood that there might be a parallel doctor. Torchwood was originally set up to combat aliens like the Doctor. Just a random thought from the blue though, could be a way to bring rose back though for all you rose fans.
Here’s something that’s been bugging me too:
In the 1st episode of series 1, Rose went to see the guy about the doctor and he had sketches taken in front of the Titanic of Christopher Eccleston version of the Doctor, and in the episode after that he talked about how he was on the Titanic.
Consider: That in a quick clip in the series finale of the 3rd series, the Doctor’s hand was linked up to the TARDIS, un-noticed by Dave Tennant and suddenly the Titanic arrives.
In the x-mas special with Cathy Tate, she was drawn into the TARDIS as both her and the TARDIS had some kinda particles in them (can’t remember the names of them.)
So is it possible the Doctor, will encounter himself?
I know none of this can be backed up properly as Chris Eccleston hasn’t been announced (or even thought of at that) as part of series 4 by the BBC but was just something I was wondering
Andrew says
Also, how on earth will he fix the TARDIS? its bigger on the inside, how do u build that? how many panels do you find that are bigger on one side than the other?
Robert says
In the two-parter half way through series 2 with the cybermen The Doctor says to Micky that travel between parrellal worlds use to be possible when the Time Lords were around. And I reckon the Master will be back and he is gonna wanna do whatever it takes to get the Time Lords back and if he does get the Time Lords back that means travel between parellel worlds will be possible and the Doctor will be able to viset Billie/Rose. And I am also a massive fan of Billie Piper/Rose Tyler.
Virginia says
I would like to think that there’s a parallel universe where we still have the 9th Doctor, technically the 10th Doctor should meet the 9th Doctor in the Christmas special as the 9th Doctor *was* there but I somehow think that bit of DW history will be ‘forgotten’, I also can’t see Chris Eccleston wishing to make a guest appearance. ๐
Robert says
I think in series 4 the Doctor should meet Rose Tyler again in at least 1 episode.
Natalie says
I would also like rose to come back she was way better than Martha
X says
i hope that the next doctor will be as good as this one the last guy was boreing
Hannah says
rose is the bestever and she WILL be comeing back ive been on a different web site and she will be coming back for series 4 and 5 YAY
Robert says
If Billie/Rose does come back it’s gonna be fantastic because it’s Rose that makes Doctor Who seriously popular.
X says
rose is the best sidekick
X says
how the hell dose captin jack become a massive head in a jar
Robert says
I don’t have a clue. Give it a couple of seasons and we’ll find out probaly
Natalie says
What i dnt get is that captain jack is American but when the face of boe talks he sounds english???? anyone??
Robert says
I never realised that. Maybe his accent changes over billions of years
Natalie says
“I never realised that. Maybe his accent changes over billions of years”
maybe
jord says
this message is kinda really for andrew who posted on the 31st july with the parallel cybermen, it wasn’t a parallel race it was what they used to look like when it was shown in ep 6 of series 1, the only reason the cybermen we know are different is because professor lumic made them to his own design in the second series.
and another thing about kylie being in the crimo special as a cyberwoman is completely wrong as she appears as a waitress on the RMS Titanic and gets tied in with the doctors adventure.
my own wishes are that rose should come back and to drop martha as i really just dont like her i think freema is nice but i just dislike martha moving on i think the 9th and 10th doctors may see eachother around the titanic as the 9th is stated to have been seen having a picture taken next to it which is shown in ep 1 series 1. I know i dont want martha in the spin-off show torchwood as i think torchwood is fine as it is.
I have also had an idea that The Rani should appear in series 4 at some point as from ep 13 series 3 when the master dies his wife takes his time lord ring as a last reminder so i think this may be The Rani as she would have been able to use the chamelion arch to create a new identity as did the 10th doctor and the master.
Natalie says
This message is for jord. You sed that the 9th and 10th doctor may see each other because the 9th doctor is stated to have been seen having a picture taken next to the titanic. But the doctor never actually goes onto the ship. I hope that is right, i think it is anyway. But it would be pretty cool if both doctors were in it. I think they’ve done that before, im not sure which doctors it was though.
Jordan Craig says
Billie Piper and Christipher Eccelston will probally never return. Correct me if i wrong but they both leth for a reason which was to never to appear inb Doctor Who itself but maybe in a spin off of some time. Last ear Biullie Piper said on the Jonaphan Ross show she would defo do a Doctor Who movie if it got offered but i do not think they will return and the way Rose leth was amazing. If they ever brought her back they could never do a beter exit for her than that. Who agrees with me?
Robert says
Yeah I agree. Billie Pipers exit was the best exit for a conpanion. But I do think Chris Eccleston and Billie Piper made a good team. The only reason why season 2 made a good ending was because it was such good acting. I still think it would be good to bring Billie Piper back even if its just a movie or even in Torchwood.
Andrew says
Message for Natalie, the doctor was stated to have never been on the titanic, but in the episode after on the spacestation that was viewing the end of the earth, while talking to the tree lady, he did imply he was on a ship that was “unsinkable” and hit an iceberg and sank….sound familiar?
lucy says
“no one in doctor who is gone forever”
rtd said himself.
If the badwolf thing ended at the end of season 1 then how come it was used in tooth and claw, love & monsters, new earth AND doomsday.
Series 3, i think i may have seen badwolf on the walls but im not certain.
Im keeping my eyes open for badwolf in series 4 & 5.
Also what happened to that void ship?
if the daleks made one before who says they wont make one again.
AND, torchwood was created because of the doctor so how come there is a torchwood on the parrell world?
hmm, so many un-answered questions.
Nick says
on season 2 “doomsday” jake the guy with the camera on “Age of Steel” said we found out what they were doing and closed down Torchwood
“torchwood was created because of the doctor so how come there is a torchwood on the parrell world?”
PARALLEL DOCTOR!
Joff says
I highly doubt that there is or ever will be a parallel Doctor. The Doctor said himself that it is impossible to travel to parallel worlds and all of the Timelords, except for him, were killed in the Time War….. DUH!!!! Everyone knows that!
There have been rumours, though, that Rose will return in series 4 but I dont know how the Doctor will find her. It is also official that Russel T. Davies will not be directing anymore series of ‘Doctor Who’ but what you are all hearing about ‘Doctor Who’ ending when series 4 does…. is a huge sham. BBC is just going to get another director.
~SPOILERS AHEAD~
1. We all know that Dalek Caan escaped… well he returns in series 4 in an episode with something to do with the void and a plot to use Donna for something… or to kill her
2. The Cybermen will return with another Cyber Leader… one muck more dangerous than Professor John Lumic
3. There are rumors but no confirmations of the Master returning
4. The Ood will return, this time the Doctor will go to their planet
5. Another, never before seen, companion will join the Doctor… along with Martha
6. Rose will return
7. There is a new and old enemy of the Doctor’s will return and wreak havoc like the Daleks in series 1, the Cybermen in series 2 and the Master in series 3
8. There is going to be a mysterious ‘thing’ in almost all of the episodes that will be explained in the season finale like Bad Wolf in series 1, Torchwood in series 2 and Mr Saxon in series 3.
I am currently looking for a little more info but not enough to ruin the entire series for anyone. I hope this has helped you with all of your questions!
~POSTED FROM AUSTRALIA~
Dawn says
Personally I don’t want to see Rose back and I’m disappointed that Donna Noble will be the next companion. As for Kylie Minogue in the Xmas special *clutches head in despair*. Martha wasn’t the best in the last series, but then she was never given a chance with all the romantic c**p getting in the way. If Rose does make a reappearance, in view of an earlier post here and my own suspicion, I would like to see that she lied about it being Jackie who was pregnant, that it was, in fact herself and we now have a ‘semi’ timelord on the scene.
Lauren says
BRING ROSE BACK!!! She suited David Tennant so much more than Martha. Martha was too open she would sooooo suit Cpt. Jack much better!! =] Thats what I LOVE about Sci-Fi, ANYONE can come back ๐ That makes me so happy ๐
Robert says
I don’t really mind who comes on to Doctor Who. I just want David Tennent to remain as the Doctor for at least a few more seasons. Still it would be good to see Billie Piper/Rose Tyler back as his conpanion. I agree that Martha Jones didn’t get many scenes with the Doctor involving love but thats more of Rose’s style with The Doctor. I think any conpanion who joins The Doctor who isn’t Rose Tyler won’t get many love scenes.
empresspol says
I just watched Torchwood series 1 in the last 2 days, and I noticed “Bad Wolf” graffiti showing up on walls…..Maybe Rose will show up in Torchwood???
Bringing Donna back could be interesting, but a totally new companion would be a better way for the Doctor to move on and stop thinking about Rose.
I just want to know if we’re ever going to find out about the Doctor’s kid. He said in series 2, “I was a dad once”. Hmmmm – makes you wonder who the mom is?????
Dawn says
I too would like to see David Tennant stay for a LOT more seasons.
As to the Doctor’s kid, we can only assume that whoever it was got killed in the Time War if they were still around by then. We did, of course, meet the Doctor’s grand daughter in Hartnell’s ‘An Unearthly Child’, but I don’t recall if there was ever any mention of her parents.
Natalie says
someone said that Martha would suit captain jack NO WAY!!!! its bad enough her being in torchwood never mind her and jack being an item. Any Torchwood fans know anything about series 2??? all i know is that Gwen gets held hostage in some way in the hub anybody??
joe says
i do want rose to come back cos shes beter than martha.and i think shell come back because i saw “bad wolf” in a torchwood ep and shes got that c**p bad wolf virus but i dont wand jackie or fat pete to come back cos they just give me the creeps!
joe again says
davros is defiitly comin back cos isnt it obvious dr who would be fuck if davros wasnt in it. no offence to russle davis. any way i read some boring news paper and then i found something about davros in anews paper. ha beat tha t people who dont think davros is back
sooooo not funny says
I think that the master would return… or the Rani. It’s one or the other.
Mr Indaknow says
The master should return-
… he secretly regenerated!!!
… rose might be able to come back despite leaving and supposed baby… he was shocked to find a rip for the two universes, who knows… he could be shocked again!!!!
BTW Martha is coming back anyway, Donna is stupid – i hope her husband doesn’t come back as well don’t you lot?!!
Also wouldn’t it be cool if it turned out that the last dalek had a tardis paradox machine – and galifrei was destroyed by manipulating it to get more daleks and the doctor destroys it and all timelords lived and the long awaited PEACE sought by the Dr and Dalek Zek!!!
Write your comments on my idea underneath!
Mr Indaknow says
also about cpt jack and martha….
apparently cpt jack is gay and….
Isn’t martha gonna go after that doctor from ‘The Last of The Time Lords’ S03 E13
Also to finish my comment
Here come the drums

Do YOUR Research!
Mr Indaknow says
just because there is a Torchwood on the parallel world doesn’t mean it is for the same purpose!
Micky/Ricky Wanted Number one (opposite) Parking Fines (completely different-and if the director of dr who is reading… absurd!! and funny!)
lucy says
If that whole badwolf thing ended then how come it was used later on in series 2
“bad wolf virus”
and in torchwood.
jack is connected to it one way or another.
the daleks will do ANYTHING to get the rest of there race back, even if that mean both worlds colliding.
I heard rumours that Rani is going to be in series 4.
Tbh, i thought series 3 wasnt the best. The shakespeare code was okay & the last 3 episodes.
I havent read anything saying that RTD has quit, only rumours.
And david love his job. he will stay there for a while i reakon.
There wont be any “love” in doctor who, maybe crushes but love, nah. nopee!
In the episode “the parting of the ways” when she absorbed the time vortex, she was changed forever.
AKA in tooth & claw
“you burn like the sun”
and badwolf bit in that episode, kinda
“there is something of the wolf about you”
skeggy says
I just hear a rumor today that they were selecting someone for the role of Davros, but i didnt hear who. so really i only got half the rumor.
also heard that James Nesbitt was going to be the next Doctor. would this make sense because Stephen Moffat was involved with “Jekyll”?
Sam says
Thus far the BBC has denied the Nesbitt rumor.
Jordan Craig says
This is fore Skeggy.It was reported yesterday (10/08/07) that Davros rumoured vto be returning and played by this actor guy. Forgot his name but if antone knows who he is pleace type back Also Billie Piper has just (I think) finished filming this new drama where she places a prostitute so i think shelld want a break from TV so theres another highly doubtful reason why she may not return
lucy says
Since the initial arc, the phrase Bad Wolf has reappeared in the background of many other scenes.
2007 series episode “Gridlock” features the Japanese word Akurรโฆรย, Japanese for “Bad Wolf” labelled on poster in a car.
Torchwood episode “Captain Jack Harkness” featured the phrase as graffiti in a Welsh dance hall,
& in Torchwood book Another Life by Peter Anghelides, a large part of the plot revolves around the Blaidd Drwg nuclear power station.
In a recreation of classic Second Doctor serial The Invasion , the animators slipped a Bad Wolf on the wall where Zoe scribbled the phone number. Other allusions since “The Parting of the Ways” include the 2006 series episode “Tooth and Claw”, the Host mentions that Rose has “seen [the wolf] too”, and that there is “something of the wolf about [her]”. Torchwood villain Suzie Costello mentions frequenting a “The Wolf Bar”.
The phrase was similarly used as a precursor explanation of possible inconsistencies, such as in “Love & Monsters”,[4] effectively attributing them to the actions of Rose as the Bad Wolf during “The Parting of the Ways”. As the phrase is a reminder of the connection between the Doctor and Rose, it appears explicitly in their final farewell; in “Doomsday”, the Doctor projects an image to say goodbye to Rose on a beach in the Norway of the parallel Earth. The area is called “Dรฦรยฅrlig ulv stranden”, which she translates as “Bad Wolf Bay” (although “Bad Wolf Beach” would be closer).
IT WAS MENTIONED IN DOCTOR WHO SERIES 3!
she aint gone, it was mentioned in series 3 & torchwood.
if she was gone forever then they wouldnt mention it again.

Jordan Craig says
But maybe the writers are putting in the word Bad Wolf because they can?
lucy says
what would be the point of that?
rose scattered that message across time, she must of done that for a reason.
bad wolf (parrell world) and bad wolf there (gridlock)

DAVROS returns in Dr Who Season 4, played by the famous british actor, SIR BEN KINGSLEY.
Natalie says
I found out that the character Captain jack isnt gay, he is omnisexual, which apparantly means men,woman and aliens!!!
andrew wigley says
rose should come back and she should stay for good

I hope they don’t bring back Rose. While she was on there it felt less like “Doctor Who” and more like “The Rose Show.”
Frankly, I thought that Rose was one of the worst companions ever. She came across as a snotty brat with “daddy” issues. The entire “romance” angel humanized the Doctor too much (he is supposed to be “alien” and “mysterious”). The “third” season was better then the previous two.
One thing I would love to see is a story about the Time War with the 8th Doctor guest starring (multiple Doctor stories ftw). It would also give us the chance to bring back the Master as played by Derek Jacobi, who, after the origional, was the best Master ever.
andrew wigley says
the first and second were really great and the third was good to
catherine says
it sounds good but i dont think kylie would make a good fit in doctor who…..well see
chickenman says
i think rose should come back. but if she does come bak then her and the doctor will be proper loving each other so itll be quite boring
oli says
i fink there bringing cathrine tate bak as donna
chickenman says
they r u plonker
Robert says
I think it’s a good idea to make Donna a conpanion because she’ll be the first conpanion that doesn’t fancy The Doctor.
davidt says
i now u guys want billi piper back nd so do i but it wasn’t the bbc that got rid of her she quit nd also there r rumors going around saying she is cumin back 4 one last episode called finding rose this episode is created to send a last farewell to her like they did when sarah jane came back……….

chickenman says
catherine tate dnt suit the doctor man
plopman says
Da Ood r coming back
plopman says
i agree wiv chickenman
plopman says
i realy hope Rose will come back for 1 episode so the doctor can have a proper farewell !!!!
chickenman says
i h8 catherine tate me and plopman are brother
plopman says
Sally Sparrow should be the companian instead of Donna Noble. p.s if anyone dosent know who Sally Sparrow is shes the blond women in the episode called blink.
mooman says
You know in the last episode of series one,Rose brought everyone 2 life so that means lynda came back she could be the companian she would be better than Donna
plopman says
doctor who is the best programe ever !!!
mooman says
Lynda from series 1 came back 2 life that means she could be the companian !!
chickenman says
whos linda
plopman says
Lynda is the blonde women in the last 2 episodes of series 1
Robert says
Lynda from series 1 would be a good companion but I think that Rose only brought Captain Jack back to life. Even if Rose did bring everyone back to life then that means that everyone who was on satellite five can’t die like Captain Jack.
lucy says
LOL!
lynda wasnt brought back
