| Posted: 20 Mar 2010 05:57 AM PDT Captain Jack Harkness actor John Barrowman has reacted passionately to rumours in the US that a Stateside production or co-production of Torchwood would make his character straight.
Would Russell T Davies sacrifice this element of Jack's personality? That is the question. As for the return of Torchwood - in whatever capacity - it seems that the intention is that wherever the show is made, Captain Jack Harkness will remain an integral part of it.
However, as we previously reported, beyond a Russell T Davies US Torchwood pilot script commissioned by Fox, there is very little movement on any form of fourth series. (Via Digital Spy)  | ||
| Posted: 20 Mar 2010 05:31 AM PDT Doctor Who Executive Producer and lead writer Steven Moffat has revealed his thoughts on how the Doctor's status as a Time Lord affects his relationship with time itself.
This is an interesting observation - the matter of tense is important, and while in the past the Doctor might refer to famous people from history in the past tense, you always got the feeling he could nip off and see them when he felt like it. Steven Moffat is also very aware that he is a different sort of writer to predecessor Russell T Davies - something that is likely to shape the overall series under his stewardship.
Remember kids - bigger doesn't mean better…  | ||
| Posted: 20 Mar 2010 04:40 AM PDT Doctor Who executive producer Steven Moffat has revealed how his love of Doctor Who lead to him working in TV - and how the series was axed as he got his first job! Like many young fans, Moffat, was entranced by the visual effects on 1970s Doctor Who, the like of which had never been seen anywhere before.
In the late 1980s, as the writer of Children's ITV series Press Gang (one of the most brilliant TV shows ever which was regularly genuine, funny and starred a young Julia Sawalha and Dexter Fletcher) the man we would later designate "The Grand Moff" might have thought he could be in with a chance of writing for his favourite show…
How different the history of Doctor Who might have been…  | ||
| Season 31 Writers & Directors Posted: 20 Mar 2010 04:08 AM PDT The BBC have released confirmed details of the writers and directors for the new series of Doctor Who - albeit without any further episode titles.
The Time of Angels and The Flesh of Stone sees the return of The Weeping Angels with Adam Smith again directing a Steven Moffat script, while Vampires in Venice is directed by Johnny Campbell and written by Toby Whithouse. Episode 7 and onwards remain untitled, with Simon Nye's script directed by Catherine Morshead, Chris Chibnall providing a two part adventure to be interpreted by Ashley Way and Johnny Campell directing Richard Curtis' episode 10. Catherine Morshead directs Gareth Roberts' third Doctor Who episode (following The Shakespeare Code, The Unicorn and the Wasp and Planet of the Dead) while the series concludes with Steven Moffat's two parter directed by Toby Haynes. So that list in full: Writers Directors In addition, Patrick Schweitzer is credited as co-producer on Vampires in Venice and the as yet untitled episode 6, something that is likely due to the two episodes featuring location work in Croatia  | ||

| Posted: 20 Mar 2010 03:30 AM PDT Finding new material in the multitude of interviews with Matt Smith and Steven Moffat is tricky - but rest assured new facts are seeping out about the new series of Doctor Who following the press launch for The Eleventh Hour. In an interview with the Mirror, Matt Smith revealed that the previous success of Doctor Who isn't something that scares him - he is in fact inspired by it.
Who knew that Steven Moffat was allowed to let his kids see Doctor Who before the rest of us?  | ||

According to Den of Geek, Richards made a small speech before the screening of The Eleventh Hour in order to talk about the new centre of drama production to be built in Cardiff, and reeled off a list of programming that it would be home to: Doctor Who, Pobol y Cwm and The Sarah Jane Adventures. No mention, then, of Torchwood. While recent rumours have suggested a new series of Torchwood might be a co-production with a US channel, there has been little solid news on Torchwood series 4. Fans of Captain Jack Harkness and Gwen Cooper have been left with little more than the excellent Torchwood Magazine and a series of novels to retain their interest. While scouring the TV listings for appearances by John Barrowman (who may one day warrant his own listings mag) and Eve Myles and other Torchwood cast members might just keep fans interested, the increasing lack of news from anyone involved with the series is deafening. Now based in the USA, Torchwood creator Russell T Davies must be aware of this. Let's hope we get some solid news soon.  | ||

| This Week In Doctor Who - March 20, 2010 Posted: 19 Mar 2010 11:50 PM PDT Alert to readers - I wrote a Torchwood section. I have sent the section to various places, and it is refusing to appear. I have not been able to debug the problem yet. So, for the second week in a row, the combined section goes out without Torchwood, in spite of my writing it. If I can get the Torchwood section to publish, it will be re-edited into this version. - 3/20/10.  | ||

| Posted: 19 Mar 2010 08:23 AM PDT Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat said at the press launch od his first series that Matt Smith's Doctor was very different from that of his predecessor. There are always differences between Doctors, of course, but rarely to the series bosses make such stark distinctions…
That's a great way to describe the new Time Lord - he certainly tells it like it is, that Steven Moffat… …and we'll see for ourselves on Saturday, 3rd April!  | ||

Let's face it, she's up against some competition - and yet… we've seen the pictures of Amy Pond in a short-skirted policewoman's uniform with a short skirt. She looks great in that and in all of the recent glamour shots - but she's more than sexy, as far as Karen Gillan is concerned.
As you can see here, though, she's certainly sexy as well…  |
Barrowman's character is famously unchoosy about the person he's going to sleep with - providing they're attractive. Let's face it, there are plenty of straight action heroes.
While The Grand Moff recognises that he has used time travel in clever ways in previous scripts (such as Blink and The Girl in the Fireplace), he is aware that it shouldn't be a dominating aspect of an episodes plot.
The Eleventh Hour kicks off season 31 of Doctor Who, and sees the first of the brand new directors Adam Smith bringing to life Steven Moffat's script. Episode two, The Beast Below meanwhile sees Andrew Gunn tackling a script by the Moff, before continuing into Victory of the Daleks, by Mark Gatiss.
However it is The Grand Moff who grabs your attention here, referring not only to a complex relationship between the Doctor and Amy or how Matt Smith is "everything I hoped for and more", he also refers to the 
If not Wales, then where? That's the question on the lips of fans of Torchwood following the press launch of the new series of Doctor Who, after BBC Wales director Menna Richards omitted to mention the alien hunting spinoff in a list of shows produced in the principality.
