Brief Ninth Doc Update

A bit of detail on Sophie Okonedo, one of the stars of the BBCi Doctor Who animated series coming soon with Richard E. Grant (she plays "companion" Alison Cheney -- not Cheneym as has been reported): Sophie most recently appeared on British screens in episode four of the current series of "Spooks" as Amanda Roke from the Chancellor of the Exchequor's office, "a real bitch of a character." "Spooks" is due to air in the USA at the end of the summer, retitled 'MI5' and combining both series to form one 16-part series; the episode featuring Sophie will be episode 10.
