David Tennant and Russell T Davies BBC Online Interview

The BBC News website have uploaded an exclusive interview with David Tennant and Russell T Davies conducted after the screening from today for the upcoming Doctor Who Special; The Waters of Mars by Phil Ford and Russell T Davies. Phil Ford is now the second writer, the first being Russell T Davies, to have contributed an episode for Doctor Who, Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures over the past couple of years.

David Tennant is joined in The Waters of Mars by Lindsay Duncan as one-off companion Adelaide, leader of Bowie Base One on Mars, for the Tenth Doctor’s penultimate story. After The Waters of Mars, the Tenth Doctor returns for his final two episodes, both written by Russell T Davies, sometime around the Christmas period on BBC One and BBC HD.

The Tenth Doctor recently returned to the Doctor Who universe for The Sarah Jane Adventures story The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith, by Gareth Roberts, during this week on BBC One. Doctor Who actor David Tennant confirmed earlier today, live on GMTV, that The Waters of Mars will be broadcast by the BBC at 7pm on Sunday the Fifteenth of November.

The Doctor Who Special The Waters of Mars will be dedicated to the late Barry Letts, the producer of Doctor Who throughout the Jon Pertwee era of the early 1970s, who passed away earlier this month.
