It is announced that no crossover with [[Paul McGann]]'s [[Eighth Doctor]] is planned at this point, nor are any other past companions expected to appear in the new series; word soon leaks out that the [[Daleks]] would be returning, however. A surprisingly controversial aspect of the new series is the unveiling of a new series logo, which provokes extremely negative response from some fans, with BBC News even reporting that some behind-the-scenes personal had received threats over it.
 
* The announced series revival results in [[Richard E. Grant]]'s version of the Ninth Doctor being deemed non-canonical by the BBC and future "[[Shalka Doctor]]" projects are shelved, including a planned DVD release of ''[[Scream of the Shalka]]''.
