Are you confused about the backwards relationship between River Song and the Doctor? They met first in a Doctor Who episode called “Silence in the Library” and were chased around by monsters in spacesuits. It was the first time the Doctor had met River Song. It was the last time River Song ever saw the […]
More news on How to Train Your Dragon 2 but not on David Tennant
Doctor Who fans know that David Tennant played Spitelout in “How to Train Your Dragon”. The challenge is that Spitelout wasn’t a significant character. We think Spitelout is Snotlout’s dad (or perhaps Stoick’s brother) as he looks so similar to Snotlout. Towards the end of the film he appears with a Terrible Trerror and this […]
Rumour control: David Tennant to play Legolas’ father
Will Doctor Who’s David Tennant play Sindarin Elf King Thranduil? Thranduil is, of course, arch-archer Legolas‘s father. The Hobbit casting rumour mill is in full force as the echo chamber mulls this over. MovieWeb think so but admit it’s not been confirmed. It’s been widely known-or-speculated that Tennant tried out for the role of Bilbo […]
Doctor Who: 10th Doctor engaged to the daughter of the 5th Doctor
You may well recall Georgia Moffett from the Doctor Who episode called The Doctors Daughter. She was an artificially recreated solider based on the Doctor’s DNA. She was made famous for the line “I like the running” possibly because much of her audience also liked it when she ran down the corridors of the spaceship. […]
Will David Tennant and Spitelout be in the How To Train Your Dragon sequel?
There will be a sequel to the hit How to Train Your Dragon but we don’t know what it’ll be called and we don’t know if David Tennant will return for his small role. In the original, the Scottish actor and Doctor Who star played the character Spitelout. The role was so small that this […]
LEGO Tardis is awesome (via @JustJon)
I left a comment on Jon’s blog to say that not only was the LEGO Tardis awesome but he had earned his place in geek mythos. I think a follow up post here on Geek Native is only necessary. The Tardis is based on the David Tennant Doctor and uses the SNOT technique. By the […]
Matt Smith versus David Tennant – 5 million versus 8 million
Deep in some story on the BBC about men in shorts kicking balls are some handy Doctor Who viewing stats. Amid the excitement in South Africa, the final episode in the current series of Doctor Who had only moderate success. Saturday’s series finale was seen by an average of 5.1 million people – down on […]
Doctor Who: Aliens and Creatures review
This is a review of the RPG supplement Doctor Who: Aliens and Creatures. It’s the first supplement that I’m aware of from Cubicle 7 for their prestigious Doctor Who license. In other words; you need to have a copy of Adventures in Time and Space before you can play this supplement. That said; I think […]
Dr Who: the Musical
Some Whovians go down in the records of fame. It doesn’t happen very often. Di0br is one such Whovian. Di0br is responsible for the rather amazing “Tenth Doctor: The Musical”. This is a 7 minute collection of fantastically compiled clippings from the David Tennant era combined skillfully with music (sometimes NSFW tunes). Check. It. Out.
David Tennant in How To Train Your Dragon
David Tennant voices the character Spitelout in the forthcoming How To Train Your Dragon movie. The movie’s not out yet – and rumour suggests its quite different from Cressida Cowell‘s book – so we can only speculate on what Spitelout’s roll may be. Some point out that Snoutlout is the main Viking and so Spitelout […]
