Karen Gillan, of Doctor Who, joins Guardians of the Galaxy

June 1, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

James Gunn will start to film the Guardians of the Galaxy TV series, part of Marvel’s phase 2, in the UK this month. Probably. The cast continues to grow in surprising, impressive and slightly insane ways. The latest addition is Karen Gillan who played Amy Pond in Doctor Who. Gillan has some indie credits to […]

Fantastic Doctor Who companions poster

May 26, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

This image from Morgane Parisi, a French freelancer living in Greece, charts all of the Doctor’s companions from 1963 to 2013. I think Parisi has done a great job but she humbly concedes she missed off character’s like Rose’s father, Stormageddon, Nefertiti and John Ridell as well as a few from 11. I’m sure they […]

Does Steven Moffat have a fall fetish?

October 3, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This post is speculation and discussion that includes the last episodes of Sherlock season 2 and Doctor Who season 7. If you’ve yet to see both then there may be the evil spoilers of doom. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zfhyj9LpMX8 I’m not sure there’s much evidence for this but folks on Tumblr are beginning to ask; “Does Steven Moffat […]

September 29, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

By I am Oswin and I am human. The Angels are yet to take Manhattan and yet Tumblr is awash with goodbye messages for Amy Pond and husband Rory. Many fans are calling the Ponds their favourite companions. It’s likely we’ll see many more of these visual farewells to the Ponds after the show but […]

Doctor Who: Eggs and Christmas

September 25, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This post is speculation. It follows on from the question Are the Lights Going Out? and the theories Is the Doctor becoming a Dalek? and Are the Weeping Angels Attacking Earth and Turning Lights Out Across Time?. We don’t know. It’s all just theory and guess work – but if you’re not up to date […]

September 4, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The second episode in season seven of Doctor who has Amy and Rory back as usual companions as well as some other interesting characters. The episode is called Dinosaurs on a Spaceship and so I feel there might be a plot clue there as well. The BBC have released a number of wallpapers for the […]
