On iPad so struggling to embed but go to you tube for Doctor Who season trailer part 2!

That's it for now

DOCTORING THE COMICS

I have been a fan of the Cartoon Museum since it opened round the corner from the British Museum.

This summer they will be looking at Doctor Who and his time in comics:

WHAT'S MY JUDOON

OK probably far too late on this one but we stumbled across it tonight on Youtube from what looks like a sadly inactive blogger Dr Gaz



Ps: For those who've wondered over from the Telegraph, hi (I presume) Stink, Hi Morningstar, I don't just rail against political idiocy here!)

HOW THE BBC WORKS

You have a top programme such as Doctor Who

It makes you millions of pounds

It breaks records for iplayer, top rating on BBC America, top download on iTunes, is the mainstay of Saturday scheduling...

Then the rumours start about budget and actors...

Will it get a full series in 2012?

And then what does the beeb do?

Spends £22m on the rights to some US talent show

Sickening

And it complains about cuts?

THE DOCTOR: KINDERGARTEN

OK forgive me, but this is…

Some lad does Pandora's Box for his talent show

CONGRATULATIONS BERNARD

Bernard Cribbins was given an OBE in the Queen's birthday honours list.

Not only was he brilliant in Doctor Who but he is essentially part of my childhood, be it Jackanory or the Wombles.

Well done that man!

GAIMAN'S DOCTOR

Neil Gaiman on WhoSay

I didn't know this
One of the callouts from Doctor Who fans has been why the swimming pool in the Tardis wasn't shown in The Doctor's Wife?

It wasn't budgetary reasons, or stinginess by the producers

Karen Gillan can't swim.

Neil Gaiman:

Making television - and especially making Doctor Who, where you have to imagine a new world (in my case a new universe) with every episode - is always a negotiation between dream and reality. (That was the same email in which I learned that we weren't going to have the scene in the Tardis Swimming Pool because Karen Gillan couldn't swim

Also, about the erasing of Tennant's control room:

Of course it exists. The TARDIS keeps it archived. House deleted it, but I have no doubt that, once they were in a place where that could happen, the TARDIS undeleted it, tidied it up and put it somewhere out of the way, along with the other things she keeps close to her chest.
