Posted: 13 Jul 2010 08:31 AM PDT Former Doctor Who companion Sophie Aldred is among the guests at this weekend's Vworp 3 event, in which she'll be talking about her 6 favourite things about the show. Sophie was first seen as Ace in 1987's Dragonfire, and replaced Bonnie Langford's Mel as the Seventh Doctor's companion. Ace quickly became a popular character, with Sophie and Sylvester McCoy forming a memorable Doctor-companion combination, possibly the strongest of the 1980s. In more recent years Sophie has reprised her role as Ace for Big Finish, and on Sunday at the PubCon Vworp 3 event she'll be chatting with Charlie Ross about the six things she loves about Doctor Who. For more information, visit www.thelass.co.uk and to purchase tickets to the event, click www.wegottickets.com. We're profiling each of the guests throughout the week, and I'll be at the event myself as scientific technical adviser, streaming and live-tweeting this Sunday, July 18th! | ||

Posted: 13 Jul 2010 05:48 AM PDT John Barrowman, also known as everyone's favourite "Doctor With Weapons," Captain Jack Harkness, in Torchwood and Doctor Who, has revealed that he was offered a child by Drea de Matteo, who played Barrowman's ex-girlfriend during his short stint on Desperate Housewives. Said Barrowman,
Of course, the response to this quote ought to be: "Should a brother and sister really be having kids together?" But Barrowman and his partner Scott Gil are not against the idea of starting a family. In a 2008 discussion, Barrowman commented,
By now the house will have been built, so the fact that they still have yet to start raising children likely boils down to the busy schedules of Barrowman and Gil (an architect). (Via Digital Spy) | ||

Posted: 12 Jul 2010 10:38 PM PDT It might only be July, but the thrill of Christmas is already bristling hairs on the back of our necks at Kasterborous Towers as we look forward to the next episode of Doctor Who. Like a small child using the first week of their summer holidays to write a Christmas list, we're thrilled by Steven Moffat's enthusiasm.
However we do fee sorry for the people in Steven's neighbourhood. I wonder if he's sent property prices down with this behaviour?
Meanwhile, Ben Stephenson is Controller of BBC Drama Commissioning, and he's looking forward to seeing the Doctor and Amy return – although while he doesn't mention Rory (Arthur Darvill) we understand that he too will be aboard.
All we need to know now is whether its on Christmas Day… | ||

Posted: 12 Jul 2010 08:49 PM PDT What do Doctor Who fans want to be when they grow up? Its an interesting question; do genre TV programmes breed fans who all migrate to certain jobs? Do Star Trek fans become scientist and cognitive neuroscientists like Dr. Daniel J. Levitin because of the shows progressive and egalitarian message? Peter Anghelides - the Doctor Who novelist behind audiobooks Pest Control and The Chaos Pool and novels Frontier Worlds and The Ancestor Cell (which was placed ninth in SFX Magazines Best SF/Fantasy novelisation or TV tie-in novel for 2000) – believes that Doctor Who fans are more interested in the mechanics of television, and tend to badger careers advisers with bold plans for becoming writers, directors and producers more than any other genre fans. Anghelides, posting off-cuts from his recent interview with Sci Fi Now Magazine, said:
It's these professional routes that allow fans to get a foot in the door and contribute to the multi-platform world of Who. Writers like Mark Gatiss, Gareth Roberts, Robert Shearman have all previously contributed to other Who mediums; Anghelides concurs:
And as these mediums mix, their importance grows even if the metaphorical axe falls again on the TV series – Anghelides comments;

Posted: 12 Jul 2010 07:31 PM PDT The Herald-Mail.com has run a short question and answer article with Science Fiction author Cindy Garland, who recently won a competition to have her Doctor Who short story To Cut a Blade of Grass appear on an anthology CD by Big Finish productions. Cindy revealed a little of what her story was about:
As a fan of Big Finish and their colossal output of work, Mary was quite shocked to be one of the 22 authors picked from 500:
Cindy isn't the first female novelist to write for Doctor Who; Australian Kate Orman has also written several Doctor Who novels for the Virgin New Adventures and the BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures. | ||

Posted: 12 Jul 2010 05:30 PM PDT The Guardian has reported that while the English public have been enjoying the first proper Summer weather for quite some years, Steven Moffat and his team have been busy with the first read-through of this year's as-yet-unnamed Doctor Who Christmas special. Moffat promises "the most Christmassy Christmas special" of the hit science fiction drama series since its return to our screens five years ago and it is revealed that it will feature Welsh singer Katherine Jenkins in her first acting role and also heavyweight actor Sir Michael Gambon. Moffat apparently hopes to emulate the success of the 2009 Christmas special The End of Time, Part One, which peaked with 10 million viewers. 2007's Voyage of the Damned attracted ratings of 12.2 million (although we're sure the appearance of Kylie Minogue as Astrid Peth helped a little). The article also continues claims that this year's viewing figures were lower than those of series one to four and also hints that there may have been teething troubles for the new production team in terms of budget cuts. It does however go on to reassure readers that:
Steven added:
It looks like Doctor Who is here to stay for the foreseeable future, no matter what some may say! | ||

Posted: 12 Jul 2010 09:52 AM PDT I'm very pleased to say that my second book for DC Comics is a very British one. Knight and Squire appeared most recently in Grant Morrison's Batman run, and they come from a deliberately over the top, tremendously fun DC Britain that had previously been only slightly explored. If Captain Britain was a more realistic take on British superheroics, Knight and Squire delights in Mary Poppins absurdity, in what I think is a quite 2000AD way. The artist on this six issue miniseries is the great Jimmy Broxton, who I've found shares my joy in all things Round the Horne and Carry On. Check out the story at DC's blog here. And here's Yanick Paquette's lovely cover to our first issue: In other DC news, following the selling out of my first issue of Action Comics, here's the lovely David Finch variant cover for our second edition, featuring Lex in his regular power suit: I'm loving these gigs. I'm sure you can tell. Until next time, Cheerio! |
