The UK Sun is reporting that a new Doctor Who spinoff series is on the mind of series boss Russell T. Davies.

The new series will be dedicated to two specific characters. The first is UNIT technology expert Malcolm Tayor (Lee Evans), who first appeared in the recent Easter special, ‘Planet of the Dead.’   The second is Capt. Magambo (Noma Dumezweni) who also appeared in the same special.

Davies was so impressed with the performance of both characters that he now sees potential in them holding their own series as a leading double-act.  He even went as far to say as the new series could make it to screens by the end of the year.

So what are the exact plans for the new series?

“It’s too early to reveal these plans,” Davies adds.
