Doctor Who’s interactive services have been nominated for an International Emmy Award. The nomination is for the innovation on platforms beyond regular broadcast television, such as on the Web, Interactive TV (such as the BBC’s Red Button) services, mobile phones and more.
Interactive Producer Rob Francis said, “The Doctor Who television series has always been at the forefront of creative innovation, and we’ve been determined that our interactive and online offerings are equally ambitious.”
Since Doctor Who returned in 2005, the BBC have launched a number of projects including the interactive Christmas TV special, Attack of the Graske, the TARDISodes for Series Two and more recently the Comic Maker application.
We’re promised some more exciting new interactive features for Series Four.
Doctor Who is up against Spooks, Emmerdale and The Truth About Marika. The winner will be announced in Cannes on 8th April 2008.
