The Prequel to The Wedding of River Song
The “prequel” to this weekend’s season finale of Doctor Who.
Of course “prequel” is the wrong word as really a prequel is something that is released after the event that tells the pre-story. This is more of an introduction, but say prequel and people have an understanding of what you mean.
Will be interesting to see how and where the story goes. Of course we know in one way as a Christmas special has been announced!
Spoilers….
Doctor Who: Let’s Kill Hitler – Series 6 Episode 8, Prequel
The adventure continues in this prequel written by Steven Moffat… The battle of Demon’s Run has been fought. Now return to the TARDIS to discover a little of what happened next.
Area 52
There is a new trailer for the second half of Doctor Who.
Some interesting clips, but what is the pyramid with Area 52 on the side all about?
End of August is when we should see it back. Can’t wait!
Doctor Who Series 6 Pt2
Looking good.
Madame Vastra
Did you enjoy the reptilian Madame Vastra character in the recent episode of Doctor Who, A Good Man Goes to War?
She was the Silurian in the Victorian era, who in the Doctor’s hour of need helps him solve the mystery of River Pond, as she owed him a debt. She was living in disguise in London with her friend and maid, Jenny.
Well it appears that there may be a spin-off series with Madame Vastra and her adventures in Victorian London.
When?
Who knows, as Steven Moffat probably doesn’t have the time to write it.
Trailer for Episode 7 – Doctor Who
The mid-season finale is on the 4th June, what is happening?
The mid-series finale promises to be an epic adventure with returning monsters, new enemies and long-standing secrets explained. You can see the Prequel below and we can confirm that episode 7 will involve Sontaran, Cyberman and Silurian action!
Lost Scene – Doctor Who
Enjoyed this bit from Neil Gaiman on the “lost scene” from his recent episode of Doctor Who.
Who’s back? He’s back…
Well I enjoyed the first episode of Doctor Who. Very epic and ambitious and setting it in American appeared to work. The result was really what they should have done when they tried to re-make Doctor Who in 1996 and Paul McGann took on the role. I am sure that if the American version was like last night’s opening episode then it may have been a success.
However back to the new episode, as I said, the American setting worked well and though I was expecting it to be a little cheesy, I didn’t think it was in the end. Reminded me slightly of an episode of the X-Files, but with a little more humour.
Nixon and the Oval Office was done well and seeing Confidential showed how much work was done in creating that infamous room in the White House. I did like the fact that it wasn’t modern America, but was 1960s America. This is why I think it worked over the modern setting of the 1996 American remake.
I was touched and enjoyed the tribute to Elizabeth Sladen that followed the opening episode. Wonderful tributes and clips about her life in Doctor Who.
I am looking forward to the next episode of Doctor Who and the series as a whole, slightly disappointed we have a split season, as I hate gaps, but I can see how it spreads the Doctor more over the year.
Sad news, Elizabeth Sladen dies
Sad news today, Doctor Who actress Elizabeth Sladen who played Sarah Jane Smith has died aged just 63. Sarah Jane Smith was the Doctor’s companion in the 1970s playing opposite both Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker; however she came back more recently to play opposite David Tennant and in new spin off series, the Sarah Jane Adventures she also got to meet Matt Smith’s Doctor.
My own memories of Sarah Jane Smith are from the Genesis of the Daleks where she meets Davros and encounters the Daleks.
Sad news indeed today and my sympathies go out to her family.
