Dr. Who Series Star Quits

Posted by Zonk on from the killllll-the-doktorrrrrr dept.

TinheadNed writes "The day after the BBC confirmed there will be a second Doctor Who series next year, as well as a Christmas special, new Dr Who actor Christopher Eccleston has revealed he will not continue in the role, for fears of being typecast. Billie Piper, who plays his assistant Rose, will probably continue in her role."

    Well, I seem to recall there was one movie where this alien menace showed up, and Kirk was all like "Come over here and I'll kick your ass, alien menace", and Spock was all like "That's illogical", and McCoy was all like "Damn your logic, you green-blooded hippie", and Scotty was all like "I canna give ya any more power".

    I can't remember the name of it, but I think everybody was an Admiral or a Commodore or some damn Navy shit.
