Russell T Davies is back in the Doctor Who showrunning chair for the first time in over a decade – and he’s planning on sticking around.
“I’m planning season 3 now, there’s plans for season 4,” Davies tellsSFX magazinein the new issue, which features David Tennant as Doctor Who on the cover. “Absolutely. Who knows? Who knows. I’m not getting any younger.”
“At the risk of sounding sanctimonious, but I really, really mean this – they were going to do this to the show anyway and I genuinely thought, ‘It needs looking after,'” Davies adds when addressing his return.
Tennant, meanwhile, is back as the Doctor for a trio of anniversary specials, with Catherine Tate joining him as companion Donna Noble. New additions to the cast include Heartstopper’sYasmin Finney as Donna’s daughter RoseandNeil Patrick Harris as the villainous Toymaker.
