The BBC have announced that Doctor Who will be part of their winter lineup, though no actual date has been given.

Doctor Who announced as part of BBC new season.

Reassuringly, the new series of Doctor Who has been included in the press pack for the BBC’s Winter highlights.

While there is no new information, it’s lovely to see it in print.

“Acclaimed actor Christopher Eccleston plays Doctor Who in a new series for BBC One next year.

Billie Piper, who made her acting debut in the critically acclaimed Canterbury Tales – The Miller’s Tale, stars alongside Eccleston as the Doctor’s companion, Rose Tyler.

Travelling through time and space, the Doctor and Rose come face to face with a number of new and exciting monsters – as well as battling with the Doctor’s arch-enemy, the Daleks.

The series, which promises to surprise and entertain a new generation, also features Penelope Wilton, Noel Clarke, Annette Badland, Camille Coduri and John Barrowman, Bruno Langley and celebrated theatre, film and television actor Simon Callow.

Filming in Cardiff until 2005 for transmission on BBC One, Doctor Who is written by Russell T Davies, Steven Moffat, Mark Gatiss, Paul Cornell and Robert Shearman.”
