The last in the mini web series, Pond Life, is out. It’s the longest yet – breaking the dreaded 90 second mark and coming in at an amazing 1:34. This is also the Pond Life that sets the scene for Asylum of the Daleks by bringing us up to date with how well Amy and […]
Matt Smith and Karen Gillan “sing” Doctor Who
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFxYDDnf6v8 Imagine what would happen if Matt Smith and Karen Gillan tried to sing the opening credits to Doctor Who? Wonder no longer and watch the video. As you can see/hear. The word “sing” is used in the generic sense. I suspect this video, from Buzzfeed, might have been carefully saved from last year when […]
Doctor Who: Pond Life, part 4
Part Four of Pond Life is out. This is the longest of the mini episodes from the web series yet. That’s to say it’s nearly 90 seconds, including intro and outro, and clocks in at 1m27. We were told that Pond Life would show us Amy and Rory trying to live their life after getting […]
Doctor Who posters appear online early

Doctor Who: Pond Life, part 3
After Rory and Amy got married it was pretty clear that Amy would not become Amy Williams. She kept her surname. In this episode of Pond Life Rory gets called Mr Pond. It’s a new, Whovian, way of doing things. That said; I suspect this episode will simply be known as Ood on the loo. […]
Doctor Who: Pond Life, part 2
This is the second in the five part mini-series called Pond Life that follows Amy and Rory trying to have a “life”. This eposide is just as small and as teasing as the first Pond Life and acts as a clever wrapper around some micro teasers for season 7 of Doctor Who. If you’ve not […]
Doctor Who: Pond Life, part 1
Pond Life is a series of 5 short, YouTube, Doctor Who episodes that run up to the start of season 7 and Asylum of the Daleks. The Doctor features heavily in this episode but we’re told it will actually focus on the “Ponds” and their struggle to have a normal life after their encounter with […]

I’m just back from the Filmhouse in Edinburgh and the second ever screening of the season 7 opener, Asylum of the Daleks, for Doctor Who. London had the first screening; New York and Canada are still to come. There have been no spoilers leaked from these screenings yet. There’s only a week until Doctor Who […]
Doctor Who prequel series announced: Pond Life
