K9 (TV series)

not to be confused with K-9 & Company

K-9 is a spin-off television series featuring the robotic dog K-9.

The show will "feature a blend of live-action and CGI: K9 himself would be a CGI creation, but the show would otherwise be recorded in front of cameras."

There series will be 26 30 minute episodes, which aside from featuring K9 will have no other ties to the Doctor Who universe. K-9's brief appearance in The Sarah Jane Adventures episode Invasion of the Bane, was a once off appearance.

In June 2008 it was announced that production would begin on the series in July 2008, with all or some of the episodes being written by the co-creator of K-9. Bob Baker. Due to licencing issues, the robot dog has been extensively redesigned and the series is not expected to have any obvious connection to the Doctor Who universe.
