At Least Tim Roth’s Still Employed…
…Because Now Magazine is reporting that current Timelord, David Tennant, signed a £1.5m (or $3 mill in the green stuff…) deal to continue playing the Doctor for a fifth series. So at least two more years of Tennant as the Doctor! Curious thought though: Tom Baker was the longest running Doctor with seven seasons. Pertwee had five. Would this now make Tennant the second longest serving Doctor? Or does it not count because next year there are only going to be specials? What do you guys think?
(Now off to see The Dark Knight!!)

I’m not sure if 5 episodes count as a whole season.
If you consider the fact that 2 of them are christmas specials then… Sure.
I mean he is a Time Lord. We may find out he’s done 12 more seasons decades in the future.?

I think i would count the specials season as like half a season mabye 3/4ths.

The specials count! 3 sets of 3 hours makes for almost an entire Who season.
Dark Knight was AMAZING - I’ve seen it TWICE and I intend to go back. It’s way better in IMAX if you can find an IMAX theatre (Don’t go to IMAX dome though). It’s so addictive, and the Joker was so amazing - wow.
