No more webcasts

Shalka is last webcast - for a while.

Developments in the production of the TV series have had a knock-on effect for BBCi, and we've been asked to postpone developing future Doctor Who webcasts for the moment.

Initially, the people behind the new series were keen for the animated adventures to continue in the run-up to the Doctor's return to TV, but recent developments have made that impossible. The reasons for this are all Very Good, one of them is Terribly Exciting... and we hope they'll become apparent in the next few weeks.

Scream of the Shalka was a tremendous success and we'd love to do more webcasts - when the time is right, but sadly that's not right now.

This may not be quite the last you read of the Richard E Grant Doctor - discussions are currently under way to publish an ebook that will tie up all the loose ends (Why is the Doctor so troubled? Who is he working for? Is that really the Master?). We're still waiting confirmation from The Powers That Be that this can go ahead, however.

In the meantime, thanks to everyone who looked at Scream of the Shalka – and for your comments on it (both good and bad) – they'll be a huge help to us in future projects. More Doctor Who webcasts are planned - but not for a while.
