No, I\u2019d like to think he\u2019s a little bit more mature now.

She\u2019s really running with the journalism, which we kind of always knew would happen for her but it\u2019s great seeing her doing it and enjoying it.

Then Chris Chibnall\u00a0came along and offered her Law &amp; Order: UK, and you can\u2019t argue with that.\u201d<\/p> <p>However, Davies has said that it\u2019s unlikely fans will see another <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/doctor-who-kids-spin-off-newsupdate\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">children\u2019s focussed Doctor Who spin-off<\/a> anytime soon, and has explained this is because of the difficulty in getting financial backing.<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cIt\u2019s an ideal, but we\u2019re coming back to a world in which money in children\u2019s [TV] is in even shorter supply. Even with all the good will in the world, we\u2019d find it very hard to do now, unfortunately. There are fantasy shows \u2013 they do do stuff. But our stuff is expensive.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou also have to keep the spin-offs looking as good as the main show, in order to maintain the entire brand \u2013 that\u2019s part of the problem as well. So it\u2019s genuinely tricky. There is no plan at the moment for children\u2019s, and I\u2019m sad about that, but just affording it would be hard.\u201d<\/p> <div class=\"&quot;brightcove\" embed=\"\"> <div class=\"&quot;embed__intrinsic&quot;\"> <div class=\"&quot;brightcove__player\" vjs-playlist-player-container=\"\"> <video data-video-id=\"6324747811112\" data-account=\"69912529001\" data-player=\"ByeOf0VZEl\" data-embed=\"&quot;default&quot;\" data-application-id=\"\" controls=\"\" class=\"&quot;video-js&quot;\"> <\/video> <\/div> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<script src=\"&quot;\/\/players.brightcove.net\/69912529001\/ByeOf0VZEl_default\/index.min.js&quot;\"\/> <p dir=\"&quot;auto&quot;\"><strong>Episodes of Doctor Who and The Sarah Jane Adventures are available to stream on\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/iplayer\/episodes\/b006q2x0\/doctor-who&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">BBC iPlayer<\/a>\u00a0and BritBox \u2013 you can sign up for a\u00a0<a title=\"&quot;https:\/\/watch.britbox.co.uk\/&quot;\" href=\"\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?id=489797&amp;clickref=radiotimes-0&amp;awinmid=33021&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwatch.britbox.co.uk%2F&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;sponsored&quot; noopener noreferrer\">7-day free trial here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Check out more of our\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Sci-Fi<\/a>\u00a0coverage and visit our\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a title=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/streaming-guide\/&quot;\" href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/streaming-guide\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/streaming-guide\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1667900325374000&amp;usg=AOvVaw1G2c7_FAYz3431qFxW1wHd&quot;\">Streaming Guide<\/a>\u00a0to see what\u2019s on tonight.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Try Radio Times magazine today and get 12 issues for only \u00a31 with delivery to your home \u2013\u00a0<\/strong><a title=\"&quot;http:\/\/radiotimes.com\/magazine-subscription?utm_term=evergreen-article&quot;\" href=\"\/\/radiotimes.com\/magazine-subscription?utm_term=evergreen-article&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\"><strong>subscribe now<\/strong><\/a><strong>.
