[edit]

Watching the confident revival of Doctor Who, one of the U.K.'s most silly and beloved serials, has been one of the pleasures of the TV year so far. A CBC/BBC co-production, the new Doctor Who is already a bona fide hit in the U.K., where, in true British tradition, Christopher Eccleston quit the job precisely because it became a hit. (He was fearful he might be typecast in future roles.)

Eccleston's successor has now been named: Scottish actor David Tennant. Tennant, 33, will become the 10th Doctor when filming resumes on the series this summer.

Eccleston made 13 episodes in all; tonight's outing on CBC is only the third. Not so long ago, Doctor Who was presumed dead and buried. No one could have anticipated the magnificent, epic, entertaining journey it has become. (8 p.m., CBC, channel 9, cable 10)
