Read the previous part in this series: the film careers of Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant, here.
By 2009, the new version of Doctor Who had become not only an integral part of Saturday night television and a huge Christmas ratings winner but also an international success all over again. David Tennant, who had played the Time Lord since 2005 and was, arguably, more popular than any Doctor since the mighty Tom Baker hung up his scarf in 1981, had announced his resignation from the part he loved in October 2008. Many wondered how the incoming showrunner, Steven Moffat, would follow Tennant and what kind of show would emerge.
Tennant spent much of 2009 on stage in Hamlet and was only able to devote small amounts of time to Doctor Who. Occasional specials...

Myleene Klass has responded to claims made in tonight's (February 6) episode of The Big Reunion.
Viewers saw Linzi from Girl Thing explain that her vocals were on the backing track of Hear'Say's 2001 hit 'Pure and Simple'.
The track was originally recorded by Girl Thing, but there is dispute over whether the group helped to write the song.
Linzi insists that she was heavily involved, while the song's credited writers deny that the girls had any input.
After watching the scenes as they aired on ITV this evening, Klass tweeted: "I Knew we never sang the backing vocals! #BigReunion."
Klass was chosen to join Hear'Say alongside Kym Marsh, Suzanne Shaw, Noel Sullivan and Danny Foster when the group was formed on 2001 show Popstars.
The Big Reunion returned for its second series tonight, with Damage and Girl Thing taking the spotlight in the first episode.
3T, Eternal and A1 will also feature in the series,...

The Voice returned tonight, and it did it in a very impressive manner indeed. New coaches Kylie Minogue and Ricky Wilson were great additions to the panel, but obviously they would mean nothing - nothing - without some talent. Luckily, there was heaps of it.
Six artists made it through to the second round after tonight's blind auditions, but who were our favourites? Well, to be honest, we liked every one of them, so the ranking was tougher than expected - but we soldiered on.
Obviously we couldn't include those who didn't make it through, so it is with a heavy heart that we report Nessa impersonator Tara Lewis is not in the list (neither, for that matter, is Danielle's show-stealing daughter Anaia.) But below we present to you our ranking of the auditionees - let us know if you agree by posting in the comments box below!

Danny Foster, the former Hear'Say popstar, is among the final group of hopefuls aiming to secure a place in the second round of The Voice UK.
Foster performs a unique cover of the Spice Girls hit 'Wannabe', which intrigues the four coaches. Watch below:
Foster found fame in 2001 when he won a place in the group Hear'Say alongside Myleene Klass, Kym Marsh, Suzanne Shaw and Noel Sullivan in the ITV reality series Popstars.
The group secured a No.1 single with 'Pure and Simple' and a sold-out arena tour, but their success didn't last and the group split after only 18 months.

A Mobo award-nominated soul singer has been tipped as 'one to watch' on The Voice UK.
Nate James, who was nominated for two Mobo awards for his 2005 debut album, joined popstars such as Kavana, Hear'Say's Danny Foster and Cleo Higgins of '90s pop group Cleopatra in auditioning for the second series of the BBC talent show.
"Nate will be a revelation. The future is massive for him and he is a cut above the others with careers behind them," a production insider told The Mirror.
The source hinted that there may be more auditionees with a pop history, but not all of them make it past the first round, adding: "There are over a hundred people in the live auditions and only a handful with careers behind them – and not all of those get through."

Former Hear'Say popstar Kym Lomas has revealed to Digital Spy that everyone keeps asking her to take part in a second series of ITV2's Big Reunion.
Lomas, now starring in Coronation Street, was one of the founder members of Popstars reality TV winners Hear'Say in 2000, but she walked out on the band two years later.
Danny Foster, Myleene Klass, Suzanne Shaw and Noel Sullivan replaced Lomas with Johnny Shentall, but they failed to match their early chart success and split 10 months later.
Speaking to DS at the Royal Television Society Awards last night (March 19), the singer-turned-actress said: "I've been asked about [The Big Reunion] a lot actually. People keep saying, 'Why aren't you doing it?'
"It's hard work being in a pop band. You're away from home a lot. It's not great when you have children. I love what I'm doing now and I don't miss it."
Hear'Say launched in 2000 and achieved two No.
