The £3million Paul McGann Dr Who TV movie shown in May wasn't a big enough hit in the US.<br /> <br /> The BBC had a co-production deal with US giant Universal Television and it was agreed if it was a hit, they would make a follow-up TV series.<br /> <br /> But it was watched by only 8.3million viewers in the US after clashing with hit comedy Roseanne.<br /> <br /> A BBC executive said: &quot;If Dr Who has a future, it is as another one-off movie.&quot; <br /> <br /> }}</div>
