Unless you count “Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death”, made for Red Nose Day and in which the 13th Doctor was female and played by Joanna Lumley, there has never been a female Doctor. Step forward Gladys with this excellent collection of Doctor Who ladies. You’ll notice that female William Hartnell and Patrick […]
Germinate! Germinate! Daleks for plants
Chris Balcombe is responsible for creating an awesome dalek. He’s a pciture editor who collects original Doctor Who props that date back to the Jon Pertwee era. We’re talking Doctor Who in the 70s, the third Doctor. He built the dalek below based on the golden daleks that have battled Christopher Eccleston’s ninth Doctor and […]
Why the BBC want to ban David Tennant’s ad
David Tennant stars in a new add for Virgin Media. It’s an add that highlights the power of the new Virgin Media TiVo boxes and it actually features Richard Branson himself. The BBC has a problem with it. The centre of attention is David Tennant’s role as the tenth Doctor in Doctor Who. The BBC […]
Doctor Who refresh: Time and Space goes Eleventh Doctor
British RPG publisher Cubicle 7 hold the license for the Doctor Who RPG. It’s Doctor Who: Adventures in Time and Space and dates back to David Tennant as the tenth Doctor. As a result it looks like the tenth Doctor. There’s a “refresh” of the game coming – one with a new Matt Smith as […]

It was the last time River Song ever saw the […]
Ridiculous Adipose strangulation warning
I was given a stretchy anti-stress Adipose toy for Easter. Well – Easter eggs are so passé! What’s an anti-stress Adipose? It’s an Adipose (introduced in “Partners in Crime, Tenth Doctor, series 4) that can be squished and streched. I’ve named mine Wellington. Wellington comes with some 100% stupid safety instructions. Before we get to […]
A video catchup of all 47 years of Doctor Who – in just a few minutes
The talented pair and YouTube success story known as The Fine Brothers have all four feet planted on the Doctor Who bandwagon. They’ve put together an oratory wonder by walking us through all 47 years of Doctor Who in just 6 minutes. I’m glad they’ve done this. I’m well aware there is a large percentage […]
Doctor Who: Aliens and Creatures review
This is a review of the RPG supplement Doctor Who: Aliens and Creatures. It’s the first supplement that I’m aware of from Cubicle 7 for their prestigious Doctor Who license. In other words; you need to have a copy of Adventures in Time and Space before you can play this supplement. That said; I think […]
Doctor Who: The Lodger – will football let the side down?
I think Matt Smith is making a success of Doctor Who. The eleventh Doctor manages just to have that touch of … difference? alternative sanity? eccentricity? … that I kinda want from my Doctor. I will admit that I was very worried before the series. In particular, from some of the scene photographs that became […]
