Posted: 02 Sep 2008 10:14 AM CDT .: 29TH SEPTEMBER 2008 :. Mark the date in your calender, folks - 'cause that's when The Sarah Jane Adventures returns to our screens! Blogtor Who revealed the airdate today [which SARAH-JANE.tv has confirmed through insider sources] along with two never-before-seen promotional pictures for the second series: ![]() ![]() SARAH-JANE.tv got in touch with Blogtor Who, who had this to say: "The [pictures] on Blogtor at the moment shouldn't really be there, but I couldn't resist putting [them] up. The other pictures released are all promo shots in SJ's attic featuring Luke, Maria, Clyde and Rani. There are no episode screenshots as of yet." Very exciting, indeed! Many thanks to Blogtor Who for the information! In other news, Doctor Who website SFSA reports that Nickolodeon Australia has recently acquired the rights to broadcast The Sarah Jane Adventures down under! It's unclear when the show will start airing, but we'll keep you posted. That's another continent checked off the world domination list, woohoo! | ||
Posted: 02 Sep 2008 08:28 AM CDT Wahey! It's September - which means we're into the final stretch of the year, closer to a new Doctor Who episode and with lots of interesting stuff coming up. Most importantly to us right now, however, is the upcoming comic appreciation event at The Lass O'Gowrie pub in Manchester. Vworp Vworp! Comic Book Adventures in Time and Space is just 7 weeks away, taking place on Saturday October 18th - and your very own Christian Cawley (that's me, by the way) has been asked by organiser Gareth "Prof Peach" Kavanagh to look after one of the panels... So - having not run anything like a panel or discussion in a good few years (since college) and not having sent anytime before an audience since by abortive stand-up days, I'm in the market for hints, tips, cheatsheets, reminders, encouragement and advice on how not to get too drunk before an event like this! I can't wait to go, however - the event affords Ceri and me a weekend away for her to shop loads and me to meet up with lots of folk, new and old. And sample the wonders of draft bitter in a Manchester pub. With a superb guest list, it's going to be a grand day! | ||
Posted: 02 Sep 2008 02:58 AM CDT Big Finish have released the details for the first three Doctor Who adventures for 2009. Together they form a new three-part mini-series featuring an all new quest for the Key to Time. The Fifth Doctor is joined by a brand new companion called Amy, played by Ciara Janson, but she is a companion with a twist - this time the Doctor is the assistant. The first episode in this mini-series is The Judgement of Isskar which will be released in January. The Doctor finds himself on a planet where Time stands still. There he meets a woman who is just a few minutes old. She is a Tracer, sent into our Universe by her makers to locate the six segments of the Key to Time. This being without a name wants the Doctor to be her assistant, but she doesn't tell him the whole truth. Not at first. Their first port of call is Mars, where a society that one day will become Ice Warriors lives in peace and civility. In February, the second installment, The Destroyer of Delights is set for release and stars David Troughton, son of second Doctor, Patrick Troughton. David will be playing The Black Guardian, a part previously played in the Classic TV series by the late Valentine Dyall. In this adventure, the Doctor and Amy find themselves at an impasse as the search for the Key to Time has stalled: the next segment does not appear to exist anywhere in the Universe. Forced into a temporary alliance with one of his greatest enemies, the Doctor suggests a course of action that is a validation of chaos itself. The mini-series concludes in March with the release of The Chaos Pool which features the return of Lalla Ward to Doctor Who. The ageless leader of a dying race believes that salvation lies within The Chaos Pool, a place that even the Guardians of Time have been unable to locate. In their search for the final segment of the Key to Time, the Doctor and Amy become caught in the crossfire. As the end of everything approaches, old friends and enemies reveal themselves and the final battle between the forces of Chaos and Order ignites… Also available in the New Year will be The Prisoner's Dilemma - a special edition of Doctor Who: The Companion Chronicles that is a cross-over adventure with the Key 2 Time series. This Seventh Doctor story features Sophie Aldred as Ace with Laura Doddington as Zara, who also stars in the Fifth Doctor's Key 2 Time stories. All of the Key 2 Time adventures will be available on CD and for download, and are now available to pre-order from the site. | ||

Posted: 01 Sep 2008 11:36 PM CDT ![]() Italian televsion channel RaiSat Smash is about to start its broadcasting run of 'Le avventure di Sara Jane'. Starting at 7pm tomorrow, it is unclear whether the show will be dubbed in the country's native tongue or use the voices of the original cast. Looks like it'll be on at the same time daily until the series ends. So that makes South Africa, Italy, Canada and the United States. Here's hoping for SJA to achieve world domination by the end of next year! | ||
