There will be no Doctor Who on Chinese TV. There won’t be any Star Trek either. Why not? The Chinese govenment has banned any and all time travel in TV or in movies. There. Of course. That’s your answer. If you’re wondering why the Chinese have done this then you need to consider the importance […]

The BBC have released more Doctor Who pictures and in them, we finally get to see the Silence. All year we’ve been wondering about what “Silence Will Fall” might mean and now The Daily Fail, of all people has these pictures along with speculation Amy Pond will die. The red top does not cite any […]
Fans vote on Cheryl Cole to be the first female Doctor
Let’s be clear about this – when SFX magazine ran a poll to ask fans which actress should be the next Doctor in Doctor Who they had to brush the 1999 Comic Relief short with Joanna Lumley playing the Doctor aside. Let’s also be clear about Cheryl Cole and the vote. Doctor Who fans did […]
Thundercats trailer from Wondercon
The good thing about conventions you miss is that there may still be YouTube videos from them that are worth watching. Case in point – this Thundercats trailer. At 2 minutes long this is a hefty trailer that shows you the illustration quality and likely plot quality. Just a concern though. There’s still no sign […]
Torchwood series 4 trailer
The first episode of the Starz “rescued” Torchwood is called Miracle Day. If you’re super sensitive to spoilers then I don’t imagine you’ll be on this trailer post in the first place but just in case you subscribe to the RSS feed scroll a way now. Also, geeks who subscribe to the RSS feeds are […]
BBC America teases us with new Doctor Who trailer

It looks less like a halloween costume. The boots no longer have fashion heels. Now they look like something an action hero might actually wear. […]
Doctor Who series 6 trailer looks nice and scary
The BBC is teasing us with more and more Doctor Who content. I don’t blame them. It’s exactly what I’d do. I think series 6 looks to be the most Moffatised of them yet. He’s perhaps proven that both he and Matt Smith can continue the series and is now stamping more of his vision […]
Legal anime streaming in the UK

Did you miss the season 6 prequel?

It’s unlikely but it’s entirely possible that you missed it. If that’s the case then this will help. Bloggers who have a […]
