| RTD's Next Project for the BBC Posted: 22 Oct 2007 05:00 PM CDT The Media Guardian reports that Doctor Who show-runner Russell T. Davies' is currently developing a new project for BBC, which will occupy the executive producer's time during Doctor Who's 2009 break. "It's going to be about fortysomething gay men and how jealous they are of gay teenagers," Davies said in an interview with the Guardian on Saturday. "I've been longing to write something for adults." In the interview, Davies said that the inspiration... | ||

| Posted: 22 Oct 2007 03:54 AM CDT One year ago today Torchwood debuted on BBC Three over here in the UK; with the double bill of "Everything Changes" and "Day One". We saw confussed Gwen Cooper investigate the mysterious Captain Jack Harkness, before slowly being drawn into his rather unique (and alien) world. Torchwood had launched. I remember the night well; sat down with all the family in anticipation of what was to come. I felt - a little - like a member of the production team myself; after all I'd spent the best part of a year already blogging about the show, and knew practically everything there was to know about the forthcoming episodes. I felt like I had an ownership on Torchwood, and it felt very strange to be an ambassador for the show on launch night. The show wasn't just 'my little secret' anymore - there were thousands of Woodies out there! The show was popular with my family (thank God!) Even the girlfriend appreciated the efforts of Jack, Ianto, et al. That's saying a lot considering that before then she'd hated everything about the Doctor Who universe. But she loved the 'Wood (perhaps I better rephrase that statement?!) Though she fell behind in her Sunday night viewings, we were there together to watch the two part series finale - and she kinda freaked out when I had a (huge) fanboy squee following the cliffhanger ending to "End of Days"! Yeah, she broke up with me soon after...! Thanks to everybody who entered my Torchwood (+1) competition - I'm going to read over all the entries tomorrow and decide the winners. For anybody who didn't enter, you can still post your Torchwood memories on this Facebook dot/TV discussion board, or by simply leaving a comment in the comments section below. Happy birthday Torchwood! | ||

| Spinoffs: Warriors Of Kudlak Preview Posted: 22 Oct 2007 01:34 AM CDT 5pm Monday means just one thing - The Sarah Jane Adventures! This week sees Sarah and friends investigating the disappearance of a local boy, and encountering the mysterious Mr Kudlak. As ever the episode premieres on BBC One, and is episode 5 of the series; next week's episode 6 is the concluding installment of the story. Sarah Jane and Maria investigate the mysterious disappearance of a local boy, Lance Metcalf, while Luke and Clyde take a visit to Combat 3000 – a laser tag game... | ||
| Posted: 22 Oct 2007 01:22 AM CDT When "Warriors of Kudlax - Part One" finishes this evening, we're halfway through the first series of "The Sarah Jane Adventure". Notice how I said 'first series' there, because this show isn't going anywhere. Lis Sladen herself has revealled that the writers are busy with script's for next year, and the studio sets are still standing waiting to be used in Upper Boat. Surely a confirmation for a 2008 series can only be days or weeks away?
TEN MEETS FIVE - IT'S TENNANT AND DAVISON! In other news you can see the cover for next month's Doctor Who Magazine above. Not only does it feature another extensive behind the scenes article on the SJA but it also explores this year's Children in Need Doctor Who special - starring both David Tennant and Peter Davison! The episode is written by Steven Moffat, and is titled "Time Crash". 24 years on from "The Five Doctors" I wonder how the Fifth Doctor will react to see a future self...? Also, the CBBC Channel today aired the first compilations of "The Sarah Jane Adventures". Both Revenge of the Slitheen and Eye of the Gorgon were repeated as one whole hour long episodes earlier today, at around 12 noon. I'm told that these extended repeats will continue during the remainder of the series run, and throughout 2008. | ||
