Okay, there are 25 posts on my flist about this this morning, and so I should really post as well, right? Lemmingness and all?

So, the way I understand it is this:
2008 - S4 w/DT
2009 - Hiatus; 3 DW "specials" w/DT
2010 - S5 w/???
You'd *almost* think that DT would be returning for S5 with this setup, since if he'd wanted to move on, they could have very easily done S5 straight away in 2009. But I guess he's going to be working on Hamlet for the RSC and so on during the period they should have been filming for S5.
You know, thinking about it, I'm not surprised. DT is like the *ultimate* Doctor Who fangeek, and to give up playing the Doctor after just 3 years? Have you seen him in the S2 diaries? It's "OMGOMGOMGOMG!! A DALEK!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!" He and JB probably sat in his trailer trading their Who cards. :D
But if he does plan on doing Who for a longer period of time, it's probably good they have this break so both he - and really everyone else - doesn't get burned out on it.
Of course, what the HELL am I going to do during 2009?? ;)
And now...I need to have some coffee and wake up. I'm determined to do my outstanding drabbles today, and maybe write a bit of fic. Maybe. Coffee first.
