Dr Who movie in works

The hit show 'Dr Who' is currently in development by the BBC, Director David Yates (director of four Harry Potter films) told Variety magazine.

Yates says the film will take a fresh approach to the show, being different to that of Steven Moffat's and Russell T Davie's versions.

"Russell T Davies and then Steven Moffat have done their own transformations, which were fantastic, but we have to put that aside and start from scratch," he said.

A BBC spokesman said: "A Doctor Who feature film remains in development with BBC Worldwide Productions in Los Angeles.

"The project is unlikely to reach cinemas for several years and as yet there is no script, cast or production crew in place."
