Two-minute Time Lord has 2MTL 65: Two-minute Miscellany, Gosh, what a lot of news we've recently had in the Doctor Who world! I'm breathless.

Rich's ComixBlog has Forever Janette – 49, Nick pulls Pierre off of the Doctor, but the mutations and desperation for energy have made him inhumanly agile and strong. Pierre flips over Nick and begins to feed off of him instead. But Janette slams a broken lamp post through him, pinning him to the floor and triggering yet another regeneration.

Blogtor Who
has Review - The Day of the Troll, narrated by David Tennant himself, this tale is set in Earth's future where ecological issues have become the issue of the day, but is all at the hand of man?

Doctor Who Methadone 2008-2010 has "Rose", we open in space and bear down upon Earth at frightening speed- to end up looking at the face of an alarm clock and "The End of the World", if "Rose" was a low-key story that gently introduced the viewer back into Doctor Who, "The End of the World" pitches them headlong into the crazy worlds that Doctor Who can take us to.
