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 […]
Torchwood Miracle Day Trailer – for UK
As it happens the trailer for Starz’ Torchwood series starter “Miracle Day” as been out for a while. It’s just that all the video clips from the once-BBC owned Doctor Who spin-off were geo-tarded so that no one outside the US (or at least, no one inside the UK) could view it. I have a […]
Dr Who: Day of the Moon done in Lego
Did you enjoy Doctor Who’s Day of the Moon? Was it too confusing? Was it anti-American? Who is River Song? Would you be able to re-construct the prison scene using Lego and minifigs? Master Lego builder Legoagogo is able to answer that last question with a yes. Here’s a very clever couple of Lego scenes […]
Free to Download: Benedict Cumberbatch’s The Nightjar
Native geeks will remember Benedict Cumberbatch not just form his impressive performance as Steven Moffat’s Sherlock Holmes but for speculation that he may have a forthcoming Doctor Who role. The possibility of either a Cumberbatch Master or Omega has been put forward. In the Nightjar he stars – at least his voice stars – in […]
Day of the Moon clips pile on the creep
The BBC have unwrapped two more trailer clips for Day of the Moon. The second one, in particular, is heavy with creep. The Silence are so very Moffat. The whole last series was, in part, about forgetting people completely – that’s why we have “Rory the Roman”. The Weeping Angels are scary because their power […]
Ridiculous Adipose strangulation warning
I was given a stretchy anti-stress Adipose toy for Easter. Well – Easter eggs are so passé! What’s an anti-stress Adipose? It’s an Adipose (introduced in “Partners in Crime, Tenth Doctor, series 4) that can be squished and streched. I’ve named mine Wellington. Wellington comes with some 100% stupid safety instructions. Before we get to […]
Dr Who: Day of the Moon trailer
Did you enjoy the Impossible Astronaut? Day of the Moon is the episode that follows – if you’re worried about spoilers then you’re unlikely to want to watch this. If you’re not worried spoilers then this is post for you! What did you make of The Silence? Scary or over rated? Personally, I like the […]
Doctor Who micro trailers are creepy
Not sure what the BBC are trying to do with these two micro trailers for Doctor Who. I can suggest that they’re somewhat creepy. Is this just part of the Moff’s campaign to scare us all? What I can say is that I’m really impressed with BBC America‘s social media promotion of Doctor Who; whether […]
Tribute to Elisabeth Sladen, 1948-2011
I did not want to post anything about the death of Elisabeth Sladen this morning. The news was sad and I was very quickly annoyed by blogs leaping on the celebrity death bandwagon. It’s lunch now. I’ve had half a day to think about it. How can Geek Native not mark the passing of Elisabeth […]
A Game of Thrones on Sky Atlantic review
If you’ve been holding off subscribing to Sky then A Game of Thrones might be that one show that changes your mind. Alternatively, you could move to America for the next few months and watch it on HBO. This review comes from the UK where Sky Atlantic currently has the exclusive run of a Game […]
