What sort of hat would an evil Doctor wear? Matt Smith explains!, Matt Smith has brought out many different sides of Doctor Who's mysterious time traveler — but how would he bring an evil version to life? We were dying to know, and he told us, we were lucky enough to ask one question each of Smith, plus Karen Gillan and the Doctor Who producers, with the answers sent to us in these videos. Gillan's answer gives a new insight into Amy's state of mind, including a pretty interesting take on where Amy's head is at this season....

Miscellanious News- Daisy Lowe likes wearing her boyfriend`s clothes - Monsters and Critics
She and Matt Smith both have busy work schedules so when she is apart from the 28-year-old Doctor Who star for too long, Lowe admits she likes to wear his T-shirts so she feel closer to him.... - Big Finish - Sale Podlet 002 - 07 June 2011
Yes, it's the second day of our Big Finish Daily Sale. And just to prove it, here's a podlet (a teeny-tiny podcast) in which Nick Briggs, David Richardson and Paul Spragg attempt to explain it all for you. In all honesty, they probably don't make anything that clear at all. Or do they? You be the judge... at least Paul Spragg has a list in front of him.

Doc Oho's Big Finish audios reviews has
David Richardson Interview, he holds the title of producer for Big Finish’s enormously popular range of Doctor Who audio adventures. He also has creative responsibility over the spin series’ The Companion Chronicles, The Lost Stories and Jago & Litefoot.....
He also has Lisa Bowerman Interview, she is best known in Doctor Who circles for her unforgettable portrayal of Professor Bernice Summerfield, a role she has successfully played for eleven incredible seasons of drama. A hugely popular character, Lisa managed to capture the voice of the character beautifully and play both the humorous and the serious angles of her life with panache. Bernice has been through much since Big Finish took on her character, falling for her ex husband again, having a baby in prison, trapped on the Braxiatel Collection under occupation, reunited with her father, coping with motherhood and discovering her mentor has been working against her!....
Caption Who has posted "We finish up "The Doctor's Daughter" in this update (
starting on page 1086) and get started on "Terror Of The Zygons!" There's a lot of fun this time around, including: watching the Brigadier play RISK, Sarah Jane playing the lottery, and will the Doctor ever find the biggest toasted doughnut in the galaxy?"
Daryl the Diver has
Enthuiastic Amatuer Diver Shares his Discoveries, the Elysium, for those who don’t know, was a commercial steam freighter in the Mayfield Star Lines fleet, launched in the summer of 1887. She ran aground the next year and I’ve been lucky enough to secure some of the salvage rights to have a poke around the old wreck! The shipping logs from just before the wreck of the Elysium have her down as carrying a lot of gold in ingots, as well as some machine parts – but it’s the ingots I’m interested in! In today’s money they’d be worth well in excess of ten million pounds.....

Episode 60, an epic half series finale deserves to be served by an equally epic 20mb Podcast and we hope this extra long episode delivers on that count. If you have not watched A Good Man Goes To War and you do not want to know what happened in the episode then do not listen to this show.

Doctor Who complete reviews: Rise of the Cybermen, which came first? The chicken or the egg? The NuWho episode or the Classic Doctor Who DVD release? There's a poser for dopey Professor Kerensky – maybe he should have devoted his time to organising a Doctor Who DVD schedule instead of building his infernal cellular accelerator contraption. At least, he wouldn't have ended up ageing to a skeleton....

Doctor Who BBV- Auton, two scientists in a classified U.N.I.T. facility unwittingly awaken a portion of the Nestene Consciousness (seen in classic programs Spearhead from Space and Terror of the Autons). Doctor Sally Arnold had been attempting to use traditional and her own improvised methods (using what appear to be bits of an old radio and Mechano) to crack the mystery of the ‘sphere’ as her assistant Graham Winslet searched for any other clues in overstuffed warehouse....

“And if this Doctor should return, he should beware — because Torchwood will be waiting”, the first plot arc that the 10th Doctor encountered actually had it’s origin in the 9th Doctor story ‘Bad Wolf’. Among the many questions that Anne Droid asked on the futuristic version of ‘The Weakest Link’ was “The Great Cobalt Pyramid is built on the remains of which famous Old Earth Institute?”.....

However, I think that the conclusion of the incident at the mining facility (I can’t quite bring myself to say this episode was a conclusion of the story) is rather overshadowed by the revelation that Amy was a ganger...."

A Good Man Goes To War: a review, decent performances from the regulars. Highlights for me included Arthur Darvill getting dark with the Cybermen and Matt Smith at Lorna's death and when the Doctor avoided the subject of his children. I thought Alex Kingston wasn't firing on all cylinders though but she did have a cold at the time apparently....
