Series 6 pushed back to Autumn?


 Head of BBC Jay Hunt has confirmed that the Channel is considering changes to the Doctor who schedule. A series usually begins around Easter and runs for 13 weeks. A sixth series has been commissioned for 2011 but it could be pushed back to the Autumn.

"We're talking about what form Doctor Who will take. I think the interesting thing with having Steven [Moffat] running that show now is it will be very much a creative decision. He will decide what he thinks is right for the show."

"It's one of the most terrifying things about being a BBC One controller - to be in charge of a regeneration and to cast the new Doctor Who. It's one of the most exciting things you can do in a job."

"For Matt and Karen to have landed as successfully as they have in the audience's mind, to be as popular and to be as instantly associated with the roles is wonderful. The telling point for me was that first episode when Matt put the fishfinger into the custard and from that moment on I completely believed in him."

So could we be waiting for another series for a year? 

Fezes are cool
