Kopic's Doctor Who & Torchwood News |
| Posted: 16 Aug 2008 06:32 PM CDT Just a couple of weeks following the release of complete seasons of new series Doctor Who on iTunes, a selection of classic Doctor Who adventures are now available on the download service as well. While most of the titles released so far have already been made available on DVD, such as "Carnival of Monsters", "Mark of the Rani" and "The Ark in Space", a number of stories have been released that are avaiable nowhere else (with the VHS releases now long out-of-print), like "The Krotons", "The Sun | ||
| Posted: 16 Aug 2008 11:25 AM CDT Fun. Fun. Fun. That is how I would describe The Doomwood Curse. That is the original review that I submitted to our fearless editor Christian Cawley. He then promptly returned it to me and told me that it was just a few words to short. So I had a look my self and found he was right. Huh, I guess there is a reason he has the cool title. Where to begin… Charlotte Pollard, played by actress India Fisher. The Doomwood Curse – like The Condemned before it - follows... | ||
| Posted: 16 Aug 2008 11:17 AM CDT There's more news on the Colin Baker front - he's coming to a house near you! Well, not quite but if the news keeps rolling in like this, don't be too surprised to see him doorstepping! Along with Terry Molloy, (Davros on screen between 1984-1988 and since in a series of Big Fnish productions) and Nicholas Courtney (who played Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart in the 1970s and returns to the role on TV in the next run of The Sarah Jane Adventures), Colin Baker will be appearing at the Doctor Who... | ||
| Posted: 16 Aug 2008 08:24 AM CDT Doctor Who co-star Catherine Tate's recent appearance on ITV1's This Morning to promote the play Under the Blue Sky has been made available as streaming video on the ITV website. Says Catherine of her roll as a randy maths teacher: "This kind of character is someone I haven't played before. Michelle is very out there and very sexually liberated. I think she is a heroine of our time, but the one thing she isn't is self-pitying. She'll never ask for pity and she'll never be a victim,... | ||
| News: A Brief Encounter with Colin Baker Posted: 16 Aug 2008 08:03 AM CDT A Brief Encounter with Doctor Who is the name of the forthcoming Doctor Who event at Carnforth near Morecambe in Lancashire - and the main guest is the Sixth Doctor himself, Colin Baker. The affable and always value for money Baker will meet and greet fans at Carnforth railway station's Doctor Who-themed shop 'The Tardis' on Monday, August 25th at the event which is being held to coincide with the release of the DVD Trial of a Time Lord. A Brief Encounter with Doctor Who includes the... | ||

| Posted: 16 Aug 2008 07:38 AM CDT Sat watching The X Factor this evening (wiping away the tears of laughter inspired by some of the hopefuls), I realised that here we are, in the middle of the year and there's no Doctor Who until Christmas. Saturday nights are of the light variety type until then, and there isn't even a series in 2009 to look forward to! This got me thinking to exactly how we organise our lives around Doctor Who. For instance one Friday every month I venture into town to buy Doctor Who Magazine. I also spend a lot of time collating news for Kasterborous as well as planning articles and reviews. Many of us of course spend 13 weeks a year looking forward to Saturdays. Suddenly however there is nothing to look forward to for at least 18 months - short of some specials - and the whole dynamic of Saturday night and in fact the calendar year is going to be unrecognisable until season 31. So what is the solution? As angry as I was at the news of a "gap year", it's a good time to take stock, and sit back. There's a universe of Doctor Who out there that doesn't exist solely on television - books, audios, toys, fan productions and of course Doctor Who Adventures and Doctor Who Magazine. It doesn't have to be a gap year - make it a Who On Demand year. | ||
| News: HG Well's Sonic Screwdriver Posted: 16 Aug 2008 07:29 AM CDT A Welsh theatre group has successfully acquired a sonic screwdriver toy - for a play about HG Wells. The Pontlliw Players recently launched an appeal for a sonic screwdriver prop or toy for use in their play A Musical Journey, which opens this weekend. Bob Edwards takes the lead role of HG Wells, who incredulously travels through time to take in some musicals. I had no idea Wells was that way incliined. Edwards said: "We had built the sets and designed costumes, but we couldn't... | ||

There have been loads throughout the series, and the DWA team have chosen five of their favourites. We’ve also got a fact file, or should that be fat file about one of the scariest ladies from the last series – Matron Cofelia. Was she really bad or did she just love the Adipose babies too much? The issue comes with a fantastic free... |
