Can't create a Death Knight!

I hit level 55 for the first time last night with a lot of excitement, as I'd really been looking forward to making a Death Knight. I've seen them played and they look like a lot of fun. However, upon entering the creation screen, the option's still grayed out! I have WotLK, but not Burning Crusade. Do I need both expansions in order to create a DK? If this is so, why isn't it listed in the reqs on the creation screen? Help or advice would be much appreciated.

I can see where the confusion is, Bonetacular. Let me see if I can help out a bit.

Everyone will have the splash screen and the launcher that will look and say Wrath of the Lich King because that is the latest expansion to the game. I have reviewed the account you are posting from and it does not have either the Burning Crusade or the Wrath of the Lich King expansions.

In order to create the Death Knight you would first need to upgrade to the Burning Crusade and then to Wrath of the Lich King.
