| Posted: 01 Jan 2010 12:09 PM PST The passing of the Tenth Doctor is covered extensively in Saturdays papers. Beware reviews do contain spoilers of the episodes. The Times has a minute by minute description of the story which it says is a great entrance and a great exit and has a look forward to the Moffat years while The Mail has a big photo feature on the episode. The Guardian describes the outgoing production team as masters. The Sun claims there was a huge electricity surge in the UK as the population switched on their kettles as the episode finished although The National Grid's website appears to contradict this. The paper's reviewer hated the episode calling it an embarrassing spectacle of overacting. The Herald thought the story was funny and sad, scary and uplifting, threatening and comforting while The Telegraph felt that David Tennant said farewell to the series in thrilling yet emotional style. Online, Den of Geek says the episode was an 80 minute exercise in just how much David Tennant is going to be missed and Airlock Alpha says the real heart of the episode was the interaction between Bernard Cribbins and Tennant, with both actors able to turn even the smallest piece of dialogue into something spectacular. SFX gives the episode five stars calling it a great finale with very clever writing, and incredibly sad yet resonant final words. Matt Smith's local paper The Northampton Chronicle says the new Doctor will make the town proud. The episode commentary, the last with Russell T Davies and Julie Gardner is now in the BBC Website.

| The End of Time (and Captain Jack?) Posted: 01 Jan 2010 07:32 AM PST While news on the "Torchwood" front has been conspicuously absent recently, the same cannot be said for its parent program. Just over two hours ago, BBC One transmitted the final moments of David Tennant's run as the Tenth Doctor in the two-part "Doctor Who" special finale, "The End of Time". The finale saw the return of several of the Tenth Doctor's friends and foes, and -- since we can always link things back 'round to Torchwood SOMEHOW -- it's no surprise that Captain Jack came back! (We posted back in April that John Barrowman had been spotted in costume as the Captain around the Who set. He later denied those claims, but his explanations sounded fishier than, well, a Blowfish driving a sports car.) For non-Brits, you can catch "The End of Time" on BBCAmerica and/or Space Channel Canada tomorrow, January 2, 2010. (Thus ensuring your New Year's festivities will end with you watching television and grabbing furiously for a box of tissues by your side.) As a result of this delay, I won't divulge any further spoilers regarding Captain Jack's role in the special, but feel free to discuss the events of the show in the comments below. And if you're a Torchwood fan who has never seen "Doctor Who", why not take advantage of this TW-free period to start watching the series that brought us Captain Jack and Torchwood in the first place? The two shows are inextricably linked! If you begin with Series 1, starring Christopher Eccleston as the Ninth Doctor, you can even catch a couple Torchwood cast members (BESIDES Captain Jack!) in before-they-were-famous roles! Episode 1x03, "The Unquiet Dead", guest-stars Eve Myles/'Gwen' as a 19th century English maid with unusual powers, and the following episode 1x04, "Aliens of London", features Naoko Mori/'Toshiko' in a bit part as "Dr. Sato" (and it also explains the origins of the "space pig" comments Tosh and Owen made in their last minutes of 2x12 "Exit Wounds"). And yes, episodes 1x09 and 1x10, "The Empty Child" and "The Doctor Dances", introduced the world to Captain Jack Harkness (perhaps you've heard of him?). When Tennant took over as the Tenth Doctor the following year, the second series' theme was "Torchwood", as Russell T. Davies was in the process of developing our favourite spin-off at the time. That finale even included the Doctor visiting the doomed Torchwood One in London, aka the previous workplace of Ianto Jones (although he is not seen or mentioned on-screen). Series 3 of "Doctor Who" featured Martha as the Companion, and its three-part finale saw Captain Jack return to help out the time-travelling duo. The episodes 3x11/3x12/3x13, aka "Utopia"/"The Sound of Drums"/"Last of the Time Lords", took place between the end of Torchwood's first series and the beginning of its second, and also gives context to Jack and Martha's cryptic inside jokes when she visits Torchwood halfway through TW Series 2. Most obviously, Tennant's fourth season finale involved the first official Torchwood/Doctor Who crossover, as Ianto and Gwen both spoke with the Doctor, and Captain Jack again re-joined him in the TARDIS, in the epic battle to realign the planets and destroy the Daleks. Now that David Tennant and Russell T. Davies have both left the TARDIS, and a new showrunner and production team has taken over "Doctor Who", it remains to be seen whether future episodes of "Who" will involve Torchwood and/or Captain Jack. Today's final Tenth Doctor episode may very well be the last time Captain Jack Harkness and his team of Cardiff-based alien-fighters are included in the world of the Doctor. Today's "Doctor Who" episode truly marked the end of an era. And now I will try to stop tearing up every time I think of the Tenth Doctor, and shall instead try to keep a positive attitude towards the future of our favourite sci-fi characters and shows. In the words of the Tenth Doctor: "Allons-y!"   | ||

| Posted: 01 Jan 2010 02:50 AM PST Happy New Years, guys! =D And a very happy third birthday to everyone's favourite show! ;) Oh yus, it was three years ago to the day [and to the minute] that SJA first aired on telly's across the nation. If you weren't around to catch all the promotional work being done back then, this is what you'd have seen being advertised in the lead up to Invasion of the Bane premiering! Ah, nostalgia. *sigh* Feels like only yesterday that I was kipping on the sofa during my Christmas break from uni, getting ready to watch a show that would become such a large part of my everyday life in the years to come. I wonder how my younger self would have taken to knowing that just two years after that fateful day, I'd have the opportunity to chat to Elisabeth Sladen, have a hotdog with Tommy Knight, visit Bannerman Road, head off to episode screenings, go to an SJA concert, review advance copies of the shows boxset/audiobooks, raise money for charity and meet Mr Smith! 2009's been a corker of a year, and with the fourth series having finally been commissioned [so sayeth Russell T] 2010's looking to be just as fabbity! And could you think of a more perfect way to kick off the decade and celebrate three years of SJA than by seeing two of SJA's leading cast in Doctor Who tonight?! Tune in to BBC One @ 6.40pm for your chance to see a cameo by Sarah Jane and Luke in David Tennant's final adventure! *sob*   | ||
| Posted: 01 Jan 2010 02:10 AM PST Today sees the Tenth Doctor regenerate into the Eleventh, only the tenth time in the series forty-seven year history that the Doctor has regenerated.  It marks the last story for the Tenth Doctor as played by David Tennant who leaves the series after four years in the role and 47 episodes under his belt. Tennant leaves the role at the top of his popularity and was recently voted the best Doctor ever by the readers of Doctor Who Magazine. His dedication to the role has been tremendous and he has led the cast of a series that scores incredibly high in the audience appreciation figures. His popularity is such that the BBC made him the centrepiece of its Christmas schedule. He is the first Doctor ever to have featured in a BBC One ident. It also marks the end of the Russell T Davies and Julie Gardner era of the series. Gardner and Davies have been involved with the series since the return was first mooted in 2003. Together they have been responsible for the realisation of the revived series and have turned Doctor Who into one of the biggest BBC properties in the first decade of the 21st Century. They have been responsible for 60 episodes and have made Doctor Who must-see television which regularly charts in the top ten programmes of the week. They have cast two Doctors, Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant and created two spin-offs, Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures, both of which have had tremendous success and are due to be commissioned for their fourth series.All three leave a strong legacy for the new production team to build on in 2010 as the series returns with a new Doctor and a new Executive Producer in the Spring of 2010. http://gallifreynewsbase.blogspot.com   | ||

| Posted: 31 Dec 2009 11:53 PM PST We would like to apologise for the fact that delivery of orders for our Short Trips books could take slightly longer than usual. Sales of Short Trips closed on December 31, but a large influx of orders, combined with staff Christmas holidays and the Christmas post, mean that all deliveries are running approximately a week behind. Extra staff have been hired from January 4 to help with order processing, and we hope to dispatch orders as soon as possible. Big Finish appreciates your patience during this unusually high peak in demand. Many thanks.  | ||
