Class: BBC Three Orders Doctor Who Spin-Off

by Cindy McLennan, October 5, 2015

BBCThree

BBC Three has announced Class as its latest spin-off in the storied Doctor Who franchise. Y/A author Patrick Ness, will work along side Doctor Who veterans, Steven Moffat and Brian Minchin. There’s no word yet on when/if the series will be shown in the United States.

Read the press release from BBC Three:

BBC Three today announces Class – a new 8×45 Doctor Who spin-off from the acclaimed young adult author Patrick Ness.

Class is a YA series set in contemporary London. Incredible dangers are breaking through the walls of time and space, and with darkness coming, London is unprotected. With all the action, heart and adrenalin of the best YA fiction (Buffy, Hunger Games), this is Coal Hill School and Doctor Who like you’ve never seen it before.

Steven Moffat says: “No one has documented the dark and exhilarating world of the teenager like Patrick Ness, and now we’re bringing his brilliant storytelling into Doctor Who. This is growing up in modern Britain – but with monsters!”

On his first television series, writer Patrick Ness says: “I’m astounded and thrilled to be entering the Doctor Who universe, which is as vast as time and space itself. There’s so much room there for all kinds of amazing stories, and to work with Steven Moffat and Brian Minchin to find a place to tell one of my own has been an absolute joy. I can’t wait for people to meet the heroes of Class, to meet the all-new villains and aliens, to remember that the horrors of the darkest corners of existence are just about on par with having to pass your A-Levels.”

Damian Kavanagh, Controller BBC Three, adds: “We’re excited to give Patrick Ness this opportunity to work with us at BBC Three and the Doctor Who family. Patrick understands young audiences and I’m delighted he will use his incredible skills as a storyteller to delight audiences on BBC Three. BBC Three will always innovate and offer opportunities for brilliant new talent.”

Polly Hill, Controller of BBC Drama Commissioning, adds: “I am thrilled that Patrick Ness is writing his first drama series for BBC Three. The combination of Patrick and Steven Moffat is an exciting partnership that has created a brilliant Doctor Who spin-off for our BBC Three audience.”

Class is executive produced by Steven Moffatt, Patrick Ness and Brian Minchin. It was commissioned by Damian Kavanagh, Controller of BBC Three, and Polly Hill, Controller of BBC Drama Commissioning.

An 8×45 minute series is produced by BBC Cymru Wales in association with BBC Worldwide for BBC Three.

The series will film in and around Wales from spring 2016 and be on air next year.

What do you think? Do you like the sound of Class? Do you plan to check it out when/if it’s shown in the United States?

It would be a lot less confusing if tvseriesfinale would have a separate site for USA and UK wouldn’t it?

BBC America has shown, very briefly, ‘The Sarah Jane Adventures’, and that was CBBC. Now they have ‘The Last Kingdom’ from BBC2. They also show a lot of ‘Star Trek: The Next Generation’, which is not even a BBC show.

I hope you are right. It would only make sense to the Doctor Who fans to air it on BBCA, but TV is based on making money. That means lots of contract negotiations and decisions made that don’t always turn out to be in the best interest of the fans.
