| Posted: 31 Dec 2010 12:18 AM PST In late November we ran a poll to gauge opinion on previous Doctor Who Christmas specials The Christmas Invasion, The Runaway Bride, Voyage of the Damned, The Next Doctor and The End of Time. This poll – which has just closed – revealed something quite interesting, which we are looking forward to sharing with you in a week's time. However before then, we want to know what you thought of the Christmas specials in the context of having a new kid on the block in the shape of A Christmas Carol. Next weekend we'll be collating the outcomes of both polls to get an idea of just what makes a perfect Doctor Who Christmas special. In the meantime, however, a very Happy New Year from all of us at Kasterborous – and we'll be back with the full usual news service from Monday! | ||

| Posted: 30 Dec 2010 08:15 PM PST Matt Smith tells Now Magazine that he isn't worried about being type-cast: "playing the Doctor hasn't prevented Christopher Eccleston or David Tennant from taking on other parts." He also commented on the length of Karen's Gillan skirts in the series: "I know those short skirts caused a furore but I say bring them on. I see nothing wrong with celebrating women and their sexiness. There's absolutely nothing exploitative or demeaning about it." Karen Gillan made a special appearance on Monday at her old haunt the Eden Court Theatre in Inverness, where she was called onto the stage to help clean it and then get gunked in goo as part of the show's "grotty totty". Says theatre marketing manager Laurie Piper: "all the way through the show the writer, Iain Laughlan, incorporated 23 Dr Who jokes, so some audience members might have had an idea what was going on. When Karen was called on to the stage, the kids loved it and everyone was delighted. She did it in great spirit." The actress recently became Arts Education Ambassador at the theatre. [Aberdeen Press and Journal] John Barrowman has had to pull out of his pantomime Aladdin (SECC, Glasgow); the theatre reports: "In terms of future performances, as time goes on it is a case of evaluating his health prior to a performance to see if he is match-fit. John is genuinely disappointed at not being able to make the performances he has missed due to the flu virus – he is a professional who will always perform should he be able to. He is doing everything he can to make a full recovery." Meanwhile, his role is being played by his cousin Greg Barrowman. [Glasgow Evening Times, Herald Scotland] Former Doctor David Tennant came fourth in a poll of the "most sexy celebrity in glasses", carried out by the College of Optometrists. He was beaten by fashion designer Gok Wan, actor Johnny Depp and comedian Alan Carr. Finally, the New Years Honours list sees a couple of Doctor Who guest stars honoured: Burt Kwouk (Lin Futu, Four to Doomsday) is to be awarded an OBE and actress Sheila Hancock (Helen A, The Happiness Patrol) will receive a CBE for services to drama.

| The Top 10 New Series One-Liners Posted: 30 Dec 2010 03:16 AM PST Carrying on with our fun series of list articles this week, we've compiled a top 10 of the best quotes and one-liners in Doctor Who since 2005. Featuring examples from the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors, Captain Jack Harkness and the Ood, this was a very difficult list to narrow down to just 10 entries – thanks in no small part to the number of comedy writers that have worked on Doctor Who since the series returned. And keeping things seasonal, we kick off with this lovely little quote from a previous Christmas special… 10. Hold on… Sorry, that's The Lion King!Tenth Doctor, The Christmas Invasion 9. The Beast and his armies will rise from the pit to make war against God.Ood, The Impossible Planet 8. Right, this isn't going to be big on dignity!Eleventh Doctor, The Beast Below 7.

| Matt Smith makes Christmas Visit Posted: 30 Dec 2010 01:40 AM PST  A young Doctor Who fan had his dream come true when he got the chance to meet Matt Smith thanks to Smith's local paper the Northampton Chronicle and Echo.Alfe Game was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma when he was just five and spent last Christmas in Hospital. He went into remission in the summer and has since dedicated hours of his time to helping children in a similar position to himself, collecting toys for presents for children and designing Christmas cards to be sold to fund presents for friends who have relapsed with leukaemia. As a thank-you for his hard work, the paper set up a surprise Christmas Eve visit from the Eleventh Doctor, who was born and grew up in Northampton. After the visit Alfe Game said Meeting Doctor Who was fantastic. When I heard I was going to meet him I was so excited I was crying inside and when I saw him on my doorstep I was so happy. I've got what I wanted for Christmas. This has been the best Christmas yet. Smith told the Chronicle & Echo We talked a lot about Doctor Who and what he wanted for Christmas, and then he showed me his presents, but we were just hanging out really. It's nice to see how inspired children are by Doctor Who and how much of a difference it can make sometimes, when you hear about them meeting in hospital, talking about it and bonding over it. This has been a wonderful experience. More details and a video clip of the meeting can be seen on the paper's website. | ||
