Dr Who gets animated - with a little help from Richard E Grant and Flash MX! Doctor Who - it's coming back. Oh my! Goodness me. What lovely news. Oooh. Well. Simply marvellous. Wheeee! (or that’s what it says on the BBCi web site...) The cult Dr Who series celebrates its 40th birthday with a brand new Flash-animated version starring Richard E Grant (Withnail And I, Jack And Sarah and Bram Stoker's Dracula), who emerges from the TARDIS as the ninth the Doctor. The new series, entitled The Scream of the Shalka, is brilliantly animated in Flash MX and is launched today on BBCi - starting with episode one of six. The all-star cast includes Sir Derek Jacobi, Sophie Okonedo and Diana Quick. The BBCi web site says "The series begins as an unexplained meteor crashes into the side of a New Zealand volcano, unleashing the snake-like Shalka, an alien species with a deadly scream." For budding animators, there's our Flash MX Character Animation course, for artists, designers or anyone wanting to get to grips with Flash MX's powerful animation features.
