Thanks. That's lovely to hear, especially from Katy.

Russell never minces words. @DRW50

 

[DRW50]

Thanks for finding that. Given the state of the BBC at present I hope he can navigate those waters.

It's quite a brazen showing. If he was not one of the top and most powerful creatives in the country I wonder if he'd dare.

@DRW50 Grain of salt, but there have been rumors of a new UNIT spinoff for awhile featuring Ruth Madeley's upcoming character. Now this too:

The Mirror has picked this up and alleged it will star Jemma Redgrave as Kate Stewart.

Moffat, Gaiman and Gatiss are all rumored to be writing for the next series but there's nothing certain. And of course there is more talk alleging Carole Ann Ford is def in the third and final anniversary special.

Thanks @Vee for keeping up with all this for those of us who aren't as much these days. Sounds like a good idea to have a UNIT-focused show, especially with the world these days. I wish they could resurrect a few of the dead Torchwood figures for this.

[Vee]

I wouldn't rule it out tbh.

Oh, I'd forgotten all about this. What fun.

Meanwhile:

Also, Deadline claims to have confirmed the UNIT rumor with sources at the BBC. But RTD has shot down talk of a new children-themed spinoff for now, sadly. Per an interview with SFX Magazine:

I do think it will happen eventually, hopefully with Katy Manning as persistently rumored.

Sorry to hear about the kids show not going forward anytime soon, if not surprised. Much of RTD's heart is in that genre, so I'm sure if he ever can he'll try.

[Vee]

As expected, this is ancillary material:
