There is no BBC official Gallifreyan language – although they do hold the copyright on the name. However, Whovian Loren Sherman created an alphabet for the Doctor’s native tongue which is based on what we’ve seen already and holds together very well. A great guide on Gallifreyan can be found on Time Turners that takes […]
Revenge of the Mad Cat Lady?: A Review of Cat’s Eye, for Doctor Who
With 50 years of stories, Doctor Who has a phenomenal bank of imagery. The Doctor and his companions have been across the universe and back. It occurred to me that it might be quite entertaining to take a few images from a bunch of stories and use them as the catalyst for new role playing […]
Only Leigh – A Very Fangirl Christmas
I’m impress at the speed at which Leigh Lahav is able to animate. Fangirls seems to be going from strength to strength. This Jingle Bells variant, for example, went live on the 16th and has already racked up some 160,000 views. What do you think? Is this a budding animation empire in the making?
The 12th Doctor: The Oncoming Storm… or hope?
But now it’s time for the old beast to snarl at you for a bit! That quote is from Steven Moffat discussing the changeover from Matt Smith to Peter Capaldi.

Vampires of Sorrow: A Review of The Ravens of Despair, for Doctor Who
Do you remember in The Mind Terrors when the TARDIS landed in ancient Rome and The Doctor narrowly avoided a death in the gladiatorial area with the offer of a Jelly Baby? You know the one where The Doctor and Sarah Jane found Rome besieged and battered by fierce barbarians, because the spirit of city […]
Yes, that’s a life size flying TARDIS
This might not be straight out of Doctor Who but it’s very clever. It just goes to show what these quadcopter units can do. Okay, I’ve not counted all the blades… and, oh wait, there’s this landing issue. How does it land? Hats off to the Flyonix team for a cracking design and video.
Good grief…. It’s a Stegosaurus!: A Review of Doctor Who – The Third Doctor Sourcebook
The interesting thing about Doctor Who, highlighted in more than one of the documentaries released around the 50th anniversary celebration of the show, is how different each Doctor has been. More so , it’s interesting to note just how much earlier Doctors have influenced the characteristics and actions of those that followed. The Third Doctor, […]
Doctor Who: Christmas 2013 trailer shows The Time of the Doctor
The BBC America trailer for the Christmas 2013 trailer for “The Time of the Doctor” puts the writing on the wall. Like the Pandorica the events at Trenzalore are there to trap the Doctor. Can the future be changed? The clip shows Silence doing something other than being spooky, shooting lightening out of their dodgy […]
