Doctor Who star David Tennant has announced he is quitting the hit science-fiction series.
Tennant, who has played the 10th incarnation of the Time Lord since 2005, says he will leave the role after completing production on the four special episodes to be screened in the UK in 2009.
"When Doctor Who returns in 2010 it won't be with me," he told the National Television Awards.
"The 2009 shows will be my last playing the Doctor.
"I love this part and I love this show so much, and if I don't take a deep breath and move on now I never will and you will be wheeling me out of the Tardis in my bath chair."
There has been no word as to who will replace Tennant.
