the most recent series; never have seen them, myself.
FYI, I've seen too darn few of the new Doctors.

doing a spinoff based on the original red shirts from Star Trek...
In the case of the Brigadier, he never tended to more than foil for the
Doctor, so you can, as well, conceive of a magazine series based on Dr.
John Watson, or movies of the adventures of Jane. Possible, but it would
take amazing writing to be more than a very small niche. My impression
is
that the Inspector Morse follow on, Lewis, isn't likely to see a third
season.
