Buffy man for Doctor Who
Anthony Head set for Dalek-busting duty
He may regularly deal with all kinds of ghouls and vampires, but Anthony Head -- best known to many as the genial Giles in Buffy the Vampire Slayer -- might be moving into the Dalek-busting business. The 48-year-old actor is reported to be the favourite to play Doctor Who in a new series of the sci-fi classic to be broadcast by the BBC next year.

Date: 2002-07-02 10:20 pm (UTC)Although I do wonder how much of the books they'll keep in the new series. For some reason I don't expect even a mention of the universe in the bottle. (And which one are they in anyway? That was never really answered.) Or the destruction of the Time-Lords. Or that the 8th Doctor only has 1 heart. (I missed where it went down to 1, but that's the current count. And no respratory bypass anymore either...)
Anyone have a clue what happened, or what book I'm missing?
Or for that fact, any good recommendations for a good source for Dr Who discussion and/or information?
