I found these over at Play.com. They range from about £5 to £15 so I doubt they’re rare – and yet; I hadn’t even thought to look for them. Could they be little presents for those Doctor Who fans who have the tendency to buy everything Who-related for themselves?
I have to wonder just how much [...]
My friends are split.
Some Who fans are really looking forward to Season 5 of Doctor Who. They’re looking forward to Steven Moffat at the helm. They credit him with some of the best Dr Who episodes from new Who.
Other friends have nothing but a sense of dread. They don’t recognise Moffat as the Messiah. [...]
I think this could be a sad day for Doctor Who fans around the world. New on-set pictures have emerged of the Matt Smith series. They’re not good. They show the good Doctor, in shorts and as a ball-kicker.
The Timelord is not a ball-kicker. Don’t you agree?
It’s a rainy afternoon in Edinburgh and the daleks are out and about. Fear not, brave traveller, these daleks are not bent on destroying the world – they’re trying to save it.
Let’s hope this imaginative, if somewhat shapeless, dalek costume is original enough to help this charity worker collect a few more pennies.

First off – if you’re worried about spoilers, stop reading, go [...]
Neil Gaiman has confirmed to SFX that he’ll be penning an episode for the second Matt Smith season of Doctor Who.
He sent them this message, which is crystal clear;
Over the years SFX, and its readers and their votes in the polls, have always been very kind to me. I thought I’d return the favour with [...]

The Doctor Who magazine subscription has revealed the first couple of 11th Doctor Eposides (do we like the phrase “New Who”?).
The first two are helmed by Steven Moffat himself; “The Eleventh Hour” and “The Beast Below”.
I think The Eleventh Hour is an interesting twist. We may be beyond some of the early suggestions of [...]
The BBC’s turning the corner on two fronts; it’s getting back into games production and its going to allow Doctor Who to be included in the new generation.
The Beeb canned their game making multimedia division in 2005 and haven’t done anything since. They’ve also been extremely protective of the Doctor Who license and we’ve seen [...]
A recent British internet meme is a dalek appearing on a political party poster. The happy chappy announces; “Exterminate, exterminate. We will soon exterminate all hope you have.”
The quirky poster is the result of a political fallout over a campaign poster featuring Conservative Party leader David Cameron. The original poster announced; “We can’t go on [...]
If you hit Google for [Christopher Eccleston] today you’ll get a wash of Doctor Who results. He is most well known for his role as the 9th Doctor. This is despite his highly praised role in geek hit Heroes.
Let’s not mention neither Cobra Commander nor The Dark is Rising.
In a new biopic for BBC 4 [...]
