Matt Smith to stay until 2013?

The Daily Express have today published an article claiming that Matt Smith will be staying in Doctor Who until the show's fiftieth anniversary in 2013. This follows the ridiculous reports by lazy journalist over at The Sun  that the actor will be quitting the show at the end of the next series in 2011.

The report includes a quote from an unnamed BBC 'mole': “The current team believe that Matt is the person to continue taking the show forward over the next few years and want to avoid the prospect of fans having to get used to yet another actor in the role in the near future,” says our show mole.

“Matt has made it clear he’s keen to commit himself to the series for the long-term.”

A BBC spokesperson added: “From Matt’s point of view he’s loving playing the part and has no plans to quit. We aren’t in a position to provide a comment as to whether he’ll be playing the part in 2013.”
