Tennant to quit \'Dr Who\', report claims
 

David Tennant is to leave Dr Who in the middle of its fourth series, according to a report in The Sun.

He is currently filming the third series of the resurrected drama, to be shown in the spring, but has apparently told producers he will only make part of the following outing.

Now on the lookout for Tennant's successor, programme bosses are said to be considering Trainspotting star Robert Carlyle and Basic Instinct 2's David Morrissey.

It was in the Sun this morning. They said they had an exclusive but it's all over the net now.

The BBC have denied it. Sort of.
