Doctor Who:
Scream of the Shalka
By Paul Cornell
Starring Richard E. Grant, Sophie
Okendo and
Derek Jacobi
Way back in 2003 there were two
Doctor Who things going on. Firstly and
the one most people remember is the news that Doctor Who will be returning to
television being helmed by Russell T. Davies in a 13 episode series. What a way to celebrate the 40th
anniversary of Doctor Who with the news that the show was returning and would
begin filming sometime in 2004. The
other was the BBCi planned Doctor Who series of webisodes featuring a Ninth
Doctor. Scream of the Shalka was
supposed to be the beginning of a new series and was all set to go but well a
certain piece of news derailed it and Scream of Shalka would end up being a one
shot and well it was new Doctor Who for the 40th but just not what
we really wanted but that would come in a few years.
