Doctor Who cartoon: first picture

Doctor Who has been turned into a cartoon featuring David Tennant in a special animated adventure.


The six-part series, titled Dreamland, will premiere on the Doctor Who website and via the BBC Red Button service in the autumn, before being broadcast on BBC Two as part of CBBC. It will also be available on the BBC HD channel.


In Dreamland, Tennant’s Time Lord visits Roswell, the area in New Mexico rumoured to be the site of an alien landing. During a visit to a local diner, he stumbles across a mysterious alien artefact and ends up battling the evil Viperox and the US military.


Georgia Moffett voices the character of Cassie Rice, the Doctor’s companion. David Warner plays the leader of the ruthless Viperox.

The 45-minute long adaptation is written by Phil Ford, who has scripted episodes of Doctor Who, Torchwood and the Sarah Jane Adventures.


Russell T Davies, Dreamland’s executive producer and the writer who brought Doctor Who back to the screen, said: “Dreamland is a remarkable project and I’m thrilled with it. Phil Ford is a wonderful writer and promises to send the Doctor into a whole new visual dimension.”


Back in the real world, Tennant will continue to play the Doctor in a series of special episodes before handing over to Matt Smith, who will take over the role in 2010.

one would hope that this animated series does not end up stealing money from the production of the proper series thus diminishing its already strained budget.... "special effects cost money.. and money should not be taken from this for a cartoon"..... i say this as the bbc do seem to be trying to trim things in at the moment to do with money...

I'm not really sure what to think. I like the idea of a who cartoon, but I did not like the Infinite Quest all that much. I'll watch it (if they over show it over on this side of the pond).


You know.. :doc3: would make an awesome bobble-head...
