Meet the new Doctor Who - Matt Smith
Matt Smith will take over as the Doctor when the fifth series returns in 2010. At just 26, he'll be the youngest actor to play the character, who is now in his eleventh "regeneration." Smith takes over from fan favorite David Tennant, who has played the Doctor for the last three seasons. Tennant will continue as the Doctor in four one hour specials over the course of 2009 and will regenerate in the last one. Fanboys are already up in arms over the decision, but they were unhappy about Tennant, too, until they saw what he did with the character.

It will be sad to lose David Tennant though.
We are getting four Specials this year? I didn't know this. Yip!
