New 'Doctor Who' spin-off planned?
K9 and Sarah Jane Smith are to star together in a Doctor Who spin-off, The Sun claims today.

The robotic pooch and Sarah Jane (Elizabeth Sladen), who are both set to make appearances in the show's second series, will apparently join forces for a new children's programme.

"It would have been a shame to put K9 back in his kennel, so we've come up with an idea for another drama," a source told the newspaper. "It's early days but K9 and Elizabeth Sladen are inseparable characters.

"There are loads of things we can do with Doctor Who. It's one of the most popular shows on TV and viewers can't seem to get enough of it."

A BBC spokeswoman said, "We are not confirming any developments at this moment."
