| The Adventure Games - BBC1 Trailer Posted: 16 Apr 2010 05:58 AM PDT  The BBC will be broadcasting a special trailer for the forthcoming downloadable Adventure Games immediately after broadcast of tomorrow evening's episode Victory of the Daleks on BBC1, at around 7:15pm.Why would the first footage of Doctor Who: The Adventure Games be screened after this particular episode?

| Posted: 16 Apr 2010 05:46 AM PDT Doctor Who has set a new record for BBC's iPlayer downloads. The Eleventh Hour has achieved the highest number of requests in a week, with 1.27 million requests to view seven days after it was screened by the BBC. An episode of Top Gear was the most watched programme of 2009 with 1.6 million views, and it is possible The Eleventh Hour could exceed this figure when final figures are calculated. As reported earlier this week, over 10 million watched the initial broadcast on BBC One and BBC HD. Meanwhile Matt Smith and Karen Gillan have continued their wooing of the American media with a appearance on Fox News's Strategy Room talking about the series and explaining how the sonic screwdriver works. http://gallifreynewsbase.blogspot.com   | ||

| Posted: 16 Apr 2010 04:00 AM PDT Doctor Who lead writer and Executive Producer Steven Moffat has revealed that we'll learn something new about the Time Lord's regeneration limit this year…
According to Steven Moffat at a recent event to promote Doctor Who on BBC America, the matter of regeneration limits has been:

| Posted: 16 Apr 2010 03:57 AM PDT  The title of the second Who episode in the series has an intersting ring to it. 'The Beast Below' ... as others have stated, perhaps something of an euphamism there.I liked the episode overall, though it did leave me a little cold on first viewing. There's also a few loose ends which I didn't appreciate, having hoped that we had seen the end of this sort of thing in the scripts. The Smilers are a case in point. What exactly were they? Some sort of robots? But who was controlling them, who made them, and why do they sit in little fairground booths? And how could their faces spin *three* times to show, smiling, sad, and then angry. I know it looked great and spooky, but then it was unexplained, and I didn't like that. And Queen Elizabeth X ... I wondered when she got black and cockney? And was she supposed to be 100s of years old? I heard something about slowing time down but it didn't make much sense really. And when did Amy record that frantic warning to the Doctor on her voting booth screen? There weren't even any controls allowing you to do that were there? And then there's the elevator shaft of doom ... leading to the Beast's mouth. The Doctor makes it sick ... and they're back on the spaceship? Why weren't they vomited out of the creature's mouth into space then? It was suggested to me that maybe they wee ejected out of a blow hole back into the ship ... but that was never mentioned or seen. And come to that, how did that kid who was 'taken' at the start end up back in the ship - the space whale could tell the difference between a kid and an adult when they're in its mouth? I dunno, it all seemed to be hanging together by threads really, but as with the last 5 years of Who, it rattled along at such a pace that you don't have time to notice these things while you're watching it. I quite liked the ending with Churchill and the Dalek ... but I always cringe when I see impressions of real characters in Who, it just seems wrong somehow - the action should be alongside the events of history, not slap bang in the middle of them ... but we shall see ... In other news, watched a couple of films recently:  Up was great fun. It's another Pixar piece and that company can really do no wrong. It had us crying in the first ten minutes, and then presented a very funny and fun journey to a wilderness waterfall for the main characters. All animated superbly, and on the blu-ray it looked awesome. Think we'll have to buy that one.Squirrel!  The other film was a horror called Trick 'r Treat, a wonderful Halloween piece of the type which we all thought would never be made again. Someone commented to be that it was a film about Halloween, which celebrated it, and this is spot on. It's not a slasher or a gore film, but an intelligent portmanteau movie of four stories which all cross and intersect as the film progresses. There's the tale of four twenty-something girls out on a night out, looking for male friends to spend the evening partying with ... We have the local Principle, and how he spends his Halloween - preparing 'special' candy for the local kids, and then going out in fancy dress ... There's the couple who don't really like the holiday and who decide to dismantle it all before the night is over ... There's the story of a group of kids who decide to visit the site of a coach crash many years previously, and in doing so disturb something which should have been left alone ... And finally the tale of a Scrooge-like old man, and how he is visited by the spirit of Samhain before the evening is over. All the cast and performances are superb, the film is wonderfully directed and rich in imagery and idea, and the little Samhain demon creature is a brilliant creation, appearing in all the stories somewhere ... watching ... waiting ... and perhaps claiming more than just candy ... I loved the film, and can see it becoming an October 31 staple to rewatch.   | ||

| Posted: 15 Apr 2010 08:15 PM PDT Winston Churchill features prominently in Victory of the Daleks and the BBC has just released a treasure trove of material relating to him.  |
First heard about on screen in 1976's The Deadly Assassin, the limit supposedly places a maximum of 12 regenerations – 13 lives – on a Time Lord. Since the series return in 2005 and the ever-impending closeness to number 13, speculation has mounted on this; this very site was the first to openly speculate that the limit might have been quashed as a result of the Time War. Not a massive leap of faith when we consider the Master.
While we've made a big noise about the return of Doctor Who to BBC America on Saturday, we shouldn't forget that
