Thursday Press Clippings

Doctor Who Loves Ya Baby is the title of an article from May 2's Sunday Mirror which identifies and profiles former "Heartbeat" actress Clare Calbraith, girlfriend of new Doc Christopher Eccleston. Says the article, "The pair are smitten after a string of dates and nights together. The actor, 40, swept the pretty brunette off her feet when they met at a theatre while performing in different plays. Pals say the former Cracker star has been 'like a schoolboy in love' ever since and has hardly let her out of sight." (Thanks to Andrew Harvey)
The Northern Echo ran a story entitled The emotional dimension on May 5, in which the author bemoans recent choices of phrase by Eccleston in the press. "My heart sank when Christopher Eccleston was announced as the new Dr Who," she writes. "He always makes such heavy weather of everything ... We turn on programmes like Dr Who for a bit of escapism."

The Irish Examiner is the latest site to pick up on the JK Rowling / Doctor Who story repored earlier.
