- Review: The Sarah Jane Adventures: "The Vault of Secrets", or the British UFO Research & Paranormal Studies Society as they like to be called, but more of them later. The Vault of Secrets, penned by Phil Ford (The Waters of Mars from Doctor Who and the wonderful Eye of the Gorgon from the first series of SJA, to name but two), opens in a most dynamic style with little to no dialogue for the first few minutes. And it's not long before we see some the return of some familiar foes, both from the mind of writer Ford.
- Sarah Jane Adventures - CBBC showreel preview, the BBC's children's channel, have issued a showreel for their Autumn/Winter line-up. It includes footage from Series Four of The Sarah Jane Adventures, featuring the appearance from Matt Smith.

Beyond the Inside of the Edge of the Brink of Whatever, the title of this week's Doctor Who Omnibus is a bone of contention for many fans. Do you call it Inside The Spaceship? Or is it The Edge Of Destruction? Or even Beyond The Sun? I bet there's one person who even calls it TARDIS Cutaway. Well, I'm hedging my bets on this one, so I'm opting for my own title: Beyond the Inside of the Edge of the Brink of Destruction. Simples.

Tea with Morbius has
State Of Decay, disconcertingly, after the attempt to break into 'hard science' territory with Full Circle, we are back in Hammer horror territory with a story about old fashioned fanged vampires. This story seems like it is in the wrong season and ought to be a Hinchcliffe-era story (Terrance Dicks originally wrote it to open Season 15, but it got shelved until it was picked up again by the economically-minded John Nathan Turner). What sets it apart from all those Hinchlife Hammer re-workings is its magnificent production values which put the Seventies stories to shame.

Classical Gallifrey has
Serial 70: The Time Warrior, Doctor Who, as television is, is very writer-centric. Different writers sculpt different types of stories and have different visions of what the show could be. They write slightly tweaked and different variations on particular Doctors and use unique conventions and world views to sculpt their stories.
