Tennant also played the Doctor in the animated shows / mini-series:

  - "The Infinite Quest", along with Freema Agyeman's Martha Jones.
  - "Dreamland", with his now-wife Georgia Moffett playing the
    companion Cassie Rice.


A proper animated Doctor Who TV series has been proposed a few times, 
but never reached the point of actually being made:

   - "The 'New' Doctor Who" (Nelvana Limited in 1971)
   - "Doctor Who: The Animated Series" (Karen McCoy in 1997)
   - "Doctor Who - The Animated Series" (I.N.J. Culbard in 2002)
   - "Dcotor Who the Animated Series" (Dan Norton in 2010 - 2013)

Probably others as well. Plus of course the animated versions of "lost" 
episodes and various computer games.
