Moffat does not use the Daleks as a prejudice weapon against the disabled

September 14, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This post is a response and rebuttal to Alyson Macdonald’s heartfelt and well-intended Daleks and Disableism: Steven Moffat on Mental Illness. The episode being discussed is Asylum of the Daleks, which was the first episode in the new season 7. My summary; the Daleks are not a metaphor that suggests disabled people are evil or […]

Doctor Who sonic screwdriver toothbrush

September 8, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Ah-ah! I wonder if the invetor of this gadget had a little time lord or two who took some persuasion to brush their teeth before bed time. This electric toothbrush is an officially licensed product and approved by dentists. Perhaps the best bit on the Firebox page selling it is the comment; “Get rid of […]

What do we know about Neil Gaiman’s new Doctor Who episode?

September 8, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Did you hear what happened during the Hugo Awards Ceremony? It was being streamed live on UStream but mid-way through, just before Neil Gaiman’s speech, UStream’s own automatic copyright police bots cut the stream off. Oops. What happened? The award ceremony had shown some clips of the award winning Doctor Who episode “The Doctor’s Wife” […]

September 4, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The second episode in season seven of Doctor who has Amy and Rory back as usual companions as well as some other interesting characters. The episode is called Dinosaurs on a Spaceship and so I feel there might be a plot clue there as well. The BBC have released a number of wallpapers for the […]

Dinosaurs on a Spaceship Trailer

September 1, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Hopefully this video isn’t geo-tarded, there are some YouTube copies already available, as it shows episode 2 of season 7 of Doctor Who – Dinosaurs on a Spaceship. This episode seems to target the younger audience head on. Sure, there’s clearly stuff for the adult audience here too but Steven Moffat made it clear in […]
