Various media sources are reporting on an upcoming children's show starring
K-9, the robotic dog from the 4th Doctor era (who is guest starring in the
upcoming Doctor Who episode "School Reunion"). The sources do not say who
will provide the voice or when it will premiere, but it is not a BBC
production. Jetix Europe (with branded kids programme schedules on
cable/satellite channels in many parts of the world) is behind the project.

"Pet project for Dr Who's K-9
"NEWS BRIEF: Jetix Europe is in development to give the robot dog sidekick
from BBC series Doctor Who (below) his very own comedy-fantasy series.
"K-9 Adventures (26x30') is being developed by Jetix and UK distributor Park
Entertainment, in addition to Doctor Who writer Bob Baker and designer Paul
Tams. The space-set series features a mix of cutting-edge CGI technology and
live action.
"Michael Lekes, senior VP of programming for Jetix Europe, said he predicted
the series will be particularly popular with viewers in the UK following the
recent "revival and widespread popularity" of the Doctor Who series, now
starring Billie Piper and David Tennant."
