Are female Doctor Who fans more in favour of a female Doctor?

February 13, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood 12 Comments

There are changes coming to Doctor Who. Steven Moffat has stepped down and Chris Chibnall will be the new showrunner when, in 2017, the series returns. Moffat’s made it possible for the Doctor to regenerate as a woman. First we were told it genders could change during a regeneration and then we met Missy. The […]

Doctor Who: Are the Whispermen related to the Trickster?

April 30, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 5 Comments

It is expected that the villains in The Name of the Doctor, the season finale, are a group known as the Whisperman (or perhaps Whisper Men, I’ve seen it written both ways). They have a distinct look and feel quite Steven Moffat in style. My first thought was that they reminded me of the Gentlemen […]

Is Oswin Oswald really the Doctor’s next Companion?

September 4, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood 10 Comments

This article discusses the Christmas Special for Doctor Who. It is speculation and invites debate in the comments section below. There may also be SPOILERS depending on how up to date you are with the show. If you’ve not seen Asylum of the Daleks (episode 1, series 7) then you may wish to skip this […]

BBC to cut gay Torchwood sex scene

July 22, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s a raunchy sex scene in a yet-to-air episode of Torchwood: Miracle Day. Captain Jack gets it on with a barman. The scene will air as intended in America where Torchwood runs on Starz (who picked up the franchise after the BBC decided they couldn’t support it). The scene will be cut from the episode […]

Torchwood Miracle Day Trailer – for UK

May 2, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

As it happens the trailer for Starz’ Torchwood series starter “Miracle Day” as been out for a while. It’s just that all the video clips from the once-BBC owned Doctor Who spin-off were geo-tarded so that no one outside the US (or at least, no one inside the UK) could view it. I have a […]

Torchwood series 4 trailer

April 4, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

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 surrenders Doctor Who spin-off franchise to Starz

March 23, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’m pleased that Starz picked up Torchwood. I watched the show simply because it was the Doctor Who spin-off franchise. I watched Children of Earth because it was horrible, good and horribly good. Torchwood, as the BBC had it, was doomed by the time Children of Earth had finished though. It’s certainly true that the […]

Photographs from the set of Torchwood

February 2, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

We’ve got quite a lot of information on the new Torchwood. The first episode is Miracle Day and we’ve even got a list of actors and characters (spoilers). Thanks to Who-watcher Alun Vega we also get photographs from the Cardiff set now and then. Check out Barrowman as Captain Jack and our favourite friendly PC […]

New Torchwood: Characters, Actors and the Miracle Day

January 10, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This post has details of the new cast at Torchwood. It contains minor spoilers and if you’re allergic to those then you should read something else on Geek Native. Photos are of the actors rather than the characters but the text is based on the official press release from the BBC. Sadly, the BBC PR […]

Torchwood: The New World

August 9, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The BBC and Starz will be working together on the next series of Torchwood. For many it might be the first series of Torchwood they’ve ever seen. This is the series of Torchwood that has to follow Children of Earth. It won’t be easy. In order to get traction in America we can expect – […]
