Renewed for a 10th Season

The BBC just announced a 10th series of Doctor Who - thought you may have missed it.

News of more episodes beyond this year's latest 12-part run was hidden away on page 32 of the BBC Worldwide Annual Review.

Matters listed as under review in the past year include "investments in The Musketeers S3 and Doctor Who S10".

We've known since February that The Musketeers would be returning for a third series, but this is the first official confirmation of more Doctor Who - to air presumably in 2016.

Series nine of Doctor Who - starring Peter Capaldi and Jenna Coleman - will launch September 19 on BBC One.

Capaldi is great but I wish they would get rid of the impossible girl, never could tolerate her.

One of the best companions of the new series also the longest serving, I bet Piper and fan club are spitting about that!

I liked Amy and Donna better. Clara was clearly written to play off of Matt Smith and she was fine at first until they went totally overboard with the impossible girl nonsense and made her immortal and more important than the Doctor himself. I much preferred it when companions were just ordinary people like Barbara and Ian or Sarah Jane Smith. Anyway I'm getting pretty tired of her and think it is past time for someone new.

Hah! never would have related those two just based on their clothes!

 

Also, am I the only one who thinks Benedict cumberbatch should be the new doctor :p  ? Not saying I don't like Capaldi, but Benedict has that suave thing going on ( sorta like DT )... Ah well one can dream

He's already another well-established character in a well-liked series. I don't think it could work, sorry. He'd make a great Doctor, though the series would have a darker undertone overall.

But then that's what they said about Capaldi, too ... ;)

    • Halo: Campaign Evolved is out next month with new prequel missions

      It is, but it also has a bad performance reputation even on high-end gaming PCs. Some people say it's the engine's fault, others say it's the games developers' fault, who knows... At the end of the day, for the average gamer, the take is this: PC game with Unreal Engine 5? Be affraid and cross your fingers, it's a 50/50 chance.
    • 25th anniversary Xbox Series X unveiled with classic translucent green design

      25th anniversary Xbox Series X unveiled with classic translucent green design by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Xbox Games Showcase had a new Xbox console reveal from Microsoft celebrating the gaming brand turning 25 years old. This is to be a new limited edition Xbox Series X and controller collection that draws on the design of the rare green version of the original Xbox console. The "XBOX Series X25 Limited Edition" is coming out later this year with its matching controller. "Inspired by the look and feel of the original XBOX console, both the console and controller feature a translucent OG Green design, with subtle tributes to the journey we’ve been on together," said Microsoft in the announcement. The Xbox Series X|S line has received several new variants over the years, but this will be the first edition with a translucent design. The Xbox Series X25 will have one terabyte of internal storage and a green light on the X to signify the console lines' history. There is a 25th anniversary logo printed on the front plate. Microsoft is also teasing that the community will be able to find "a few hidden surprises throughout" the machine as well. As for the new X25 Special Edition Xbox controller, this is also coming with the classic translucent green design for its front and back plates. "From the original ABXY colors, to the timeless green, every detail calls back to the beginning, including the bumpers honoring the original black and white buttons on the original “Duke” controller," says the company about this release. "The back case and battery door are fully transparent, revealing the classic XBOX logo." The XBOX 25th anniversary collection, containing both the translucent console and controller, will be available for purchase in November 2026 as a limited-edition release. Microsoft will be offering the new XBOX Wireless Controller X25 Special Edition separately as well. Pricing details and pre-order information will be coming later.
