Nesbitt is fans' choice for new Doctor Who
{I hope DT stays for a few more years dont get me wrong, but id love to see Jimmy take a whirl in the tardis}
James Nesbitt has been voted the actor that Doctor Who fans would most like to see take over from David Tennant.
Out of 3,500 Doctor Who viewers surveyed on behalf of the Doctor Who Exhibition at Earls Court, 714 fans want to see the Cold Feet star as the next incarnation of the Time Lord.
Second favourite was Shaun Of The Dead star Simon Pegg with 18 per cent of the vote.
The poll - conducted via www.eco.co.uk, the official website of the Earls Court Exhibition Centre where an exhibition of Doctor Who memorabilia is currently on display - also asked fans to vote for their favourite Doctor Who, and Doctor Who enemy.
Current Time Lord David Tennant proved the nation's favourite with 62 per cent of the vote but Tom Baker - best known for his eccentricity during the 1960s series - remains a classic Who icon, coming in at second place with 19 per cent.
Tennant is remaining tight-lipped over when he plans to quit as Doctor Who.
The Daleks were of course the most popular enemy, with a whopping 44 per cent and they are due to reappear in Saturday night's episode of the BBC series.
The Doctor Who exhibition features many of the actual props and costumes worn by the stars of the show David Tennant, Billie Piper and Catherine Tate, along with plus creatures from the hit sci-fi show.
Doctor Who star set to get £1.3m to stay
THE BBC is rumoured to be ready to pay David Tennant a massive £1.3 million to carry on as Doctor Who.
The Bathgate-born actor is expected to be offered a new deal worth up to £100,000 per episode.And he could also be offered other drama projects in a bid to keep him on board.BBC bosses are desperate to stop the 37-year-old from quitting the show, which attracts up to eight million viewers.One senior BBC source was quoted saying: "Everyone assumes David is quitting but that's not the case. We're hoping he will be back."The situation as it stands is that no deal has been discussed yet for the next series of Doctor Who. That, however, is about to change."David is brilliant in the role and naturally we hope he will continue. We're not considering anyone else at this time."Tennant said: "I've been asked when I'm quitting since the first day I took the part. I've not quit – I've just not been offered another deal yet."

Preview: A 'Doctor Who' reunion
Digital spy has a long winded review with a few spoilers posted now.
This week on Doctor Who there's the mother of all reunions. In 'The Stolen Earth' - the first episode of the two-part finale - our planet is suddenly plucked from the solar system and deposited (along with 26 others) in a place far, far away.Donna and The Doctor are left clueless in the TARDIS, which is hovering in the empty space where the Earth used to be. Meanwhile, on Earth itself, mass panic and hysteria reigns. Companions from the past start to band together to summon the Doctor and save the world from "the darkness".This means the return of Martha Jones, on assignment for UNIT in New York; Captain Jack, who appears in the Torchwood hub alongside Gwen and Ianto; and Sarah Jane, together with son Luke and trusty computer Mr. Smith.Oh, and what about Rose? Well, she decides to pay Donna's parents a visit and misses out on a lot of the action. But she deserves a reunion too, doesn't she? Yes. Yes she does.Your questionsTime now for some of your burning questions about the Doctor Who finale...
Howdy Neil, Loving TubeTalk as usual, but i'm a bit concerned...... I am a BIG Doctor Who fan, but with all the spoilers (:S) on the Forums, etc, and we know that all the old assistants are back, but i'm abit worried were in for a bit of Bloodshed.... could you confirm or deny this... or give us a hint which Who Assistant may be for the chop?! Heres hoping its Martha Jones...
James, From Chester
Neil: Let's put it this way: a female we know very well is exterminated this weekend.
in the final two episodes of doctor who will rose get to see the doctor?
enya
Neil: It would be very cruel if she didn't, wouldn't it now? They wouldn't be that cruel.
Do you know if there is any news on the Series 5 companion in Doctor Who? Is Billie Piper or Freema Agyeman returning for a further stint?
Michael Anderson
Neil: We don't even know for certain that David Tennant has signed up for series five yet - although from everything I've heard, he will be on board. As far as assistants go, we know that Catherine Tate won't be back as Donna, and I doubt Freema will be on board the TARDIS again any time soon. Who would you like to see? Add your comments at the end of this entry.
Will we find out what has happened to all the bees?
Mick
Neil: Ahh yes, the mystery of the disappearing bees. This will be answered. The question isn't really why they are going, but where to?
ok i gessed davros was comeing back but can you tell us if the doctors old frend k-9 is to make an aperance at eny time please. thanks
lucas
Neil: Ahhh yes, Davros. I almost overlooked that. Davros - creator of the Daleks - doesn't feature too heavily in this week's episode (next week he really shines). He's not quite what he used to be. Literally. There's no sign of K-9 in the finale, unfortunately. He must be too busy guarding that black hole.
Who said What?
Here are some select quotes from the episode, with the now-customary stars inserted to keep you wondering. Add your guesses at the end of the column!
"I like Saturdays."
"You cannot possibly *****."
"I'm sorry for your loss. I mean the loss that *** *** to ****."
"My vision is not impaired."
"Who's she?!"
"Tell the Doctor from me, he chose his ********** well."
One more thing...
