Teletext Update
Wednesday, 17 March 2004 - Reported by Shaun Lyon
Today's Teletext features an article by Simon Holden entitled "The Daleks are Back to Exterminate" in which the current issues between the estate of Terry Nation and the BBC are mentioned, and Russell Davies is quoted as saying "The negotiations are going well and I expect a positive result. ... The estate is protecting an important property, after all, and I can appreciate why they are being so careful. I'd like to think my estate will be equally well-protected after I go." The article mentions that the announcement on casting may come next week, and once again hints that it's "possible" that the Doctor may develop some human emotions. "Don't assume that the Doctor can never have sex. I'm not saying anything and you will have to wait and see how he develops. But he can always change. We shouldn't assume the character cannot change in some ways." (Thanks to Tim Harrison, Phillip Madeley)
