'Doctor Who' star: 'Amy Pond is changing', Gillan: "In this series, cracks are starting to form in that feisty exterior, and we're starting to get glimpses into other aspects of her. And having her parents back in her life definitely does have an effect on her. But it's kind of a mixed effect."

The Destroyers of Worlds - Part One, The Doctor and Ace arrive at an Egyptian exhibit during the second world war in search for an ancient Egyptian artifact, an Ankh Key. However, upon arriving they coincide with the Nazi's own plan to collect this item. After escaping from the museum, the Doctor explains that they must get the key as far from the Nazi's as possible as it is a dangerous piece of alien technology, a key that will release one of the greatest forces of evil the planet has ever known.

Eat or die! Dalek cake, okay; it’s a Dalek cake. I’m pretty sure the current batch of Daleks have a force shield that would stop chocolate from being able to cover it (and would prevent some grumpy git blinding their eyestalk with mud and pushing them on to their coat).

Doctor Who episode three: The Curse of the Black Spot, preview, after the confusingly complex two-parter to open the series, we return to rather more traditional Timelord territory tonight: TARDIS lands in unfamiliar world, hostile alien puts said world in peril, Doctor helps natives fend off threat. He, Amy and Rory are marooned aboard a 17th century pirate ship in distress, skippered by grizzly-bearded Captain Avery (played with relish by Downton Abbey’s Hugh Bonneville)....

Review: Past Doctor Adventures - The Hollow Men, by Keith Topping & Martin Day, the Doctor and Axe find themselves in a small England town called Hexen Bridge, where the children are brilliant but people die pretty much spontaneously and mysteriously. If you took a look at the cover, you would also see that there are evil scarecrows about.....

"The Impossible Astronaut"/"Day of the Moon", the opening story of a new series of Doctor Who has certain expectations. A light-hearted adventure that gently eases us into an exciting new season of time-travelling fun. This is what we get to some extent- we have the Doctor being silly at various points in history before having a picnic with his friends before the credits roll.....

Doctor Who 2.2: Day of the Moon review, the scene of last week, in which River and Rory share their problems of being in the orbit of the dazzling Doctor, was just the beginning – these two characters and their dilemmas provide the heart of this story, a story with a lot of plot crammed into it, but which still manages to let these characters shine....

The Dalek Handbook, ....is really two books for the price of one. The first is the detailed story of how the Daleks were produced and the constant challenges of trying to make a massive army of cybernetic death machines when you don’t actually have any more than three working models of them. This is fascinating and, often, very funny to read, and the special effects team on the show emerge as some of the great unsung heroes of 20th century science fiction.....

019 – Dropping the Ball, "have I ever mentioned that making podcasts in a timely fashion isn’t easy? This week we manage to talk about “The Impossible Astronaut,” the first half of a two-parter that we’ve already seen both parts of. How’s that for timely? Oh, not so good, eh? It’s not our fault!
