Could the 9th Doctor return for a multi-doctor special during the 50th Anniversary? Quite possibly.Christopher Eccleston, who played the 9th Doctor for 13 episodes of its first ‘revived’ series has spoken of ‘more to do’ with his incarnation of the famous Time Lord.
Eccleston, who is notoriously cagey when asked about his time on Doctor Who, was speaking at a Q&A session at the National Theatre earlier this week where is starring as Creon in the play Antigone.
When asked by an attendee whether he felt he had taken the character of The Doctor as far as he could Eccleston is reported as having said, somewhat surprisingly, ‘no.’
A Doctor Who fan who was present wrote about the event on his blog:
[He] felt that one series isn’t enough to get under the skin of the character and that if he’d had two or three series he’d have developed the role considerably.
He said that if you looked at the other Doctors (with the exception of Tom Baker) you can see them working out how to play the character through their first series because it’s such a complex and challenging role.
He said several times that there was more for him to do with the character….
With the 50th Anniversary of Doctor Who airing next year (with a slew of specials in place of a regular series) I can’t help but hope (in vain, most likely) that the 9th Doctor is somehow featured.
