When Benjamin Cook sent the tweet heard 'round the world from the set in Cardiff, we knew that David Tennant had completed his last day in principal photography as the Tenth Doctor. Even though we're still months away from his last episode's airing, as he walks away from the stage it's a good time to thank him.

I can hear the screaming now, in the distance. The words are carried on the wind: "What, again?" But as long as the story's executed well, I'm looking forward to the return of (SPOILER), as foretold by the set reporters and tabloids…

This is in no way a two-minute podcast this week. I apologize. Instead, it's a bit of a catch-up episode as I talk about my recent Secret Project adventure (the now-released multi-podcaster extravaganza that is DWO WhoCast #118 and #119) and draw some similarities between the Star Trek and Doctor Who relaunches.

American Doctor Who fans may now commence their grinding of teeth, as they wait for not one but two Doctor Who specials to make their way across the Atlantic. The official word from NBC Universal's publicity department for the SCI FI channel: "No news yet on SCI FI's scheduling of Doctor Who."
