Following 2entertain's decision to not commission any more animated Doctor Who episodes, I have drafted a petition to lobby them and the BBC. It has been up for just over a week, and has gained over 50 signatures so far. I need your support!
Now, I am a realist, and don't expect miracles; this is not necessarily a petition to get 2entertain to suddenly get their chequebooks out and immediately commission episodes, more a way of guiding them in the right direction, showing how much fan support there is. Also, get them to think positively about possible alternative avenues. One idea I had was for them to run competitions for fans to animate episodes themselves, with the winner ending up on a DVD release, the runner-ups getting clips shown as extras. This would be a cost effective way for 2entertain to get pseudo-complete stories onto DVD, and for budding animators to get their name in lights. Just a thought...
Don't get me wrong, I do hope that this petition makes a difference! For that to happen, I need your help.

Please spread the word wherever you go. There is an option to name which incomplete story you would like to see animated, but this is not an obligatory field.
