The Doctor Who News Page has...

The Red Lines Page (Peter Anghelides) has Dalek design, "today’s Daily Telegraph runs a story “DIY Dalek blueprints from 1970s published online”. They refer to correspondence republished by Shaun Usher that the BBC sent out to people asking for construction details, what the article doesn’t reveal is that the “blueprints” were reproduced from their original source using a revolutionary technique known as “photocopying”. The construction instructions came from a Radio Times Special published in 1973 to commemorate that year’s tenth anniversary of Doctor Who. The production office simply made a copy of those and posted them out to people who asked..."

Tim's Take On has Episode 37 (John Leeson at Whoverville 2), in another episode recorded at Whoverville 2 we here from John Leeson, best known as voice of K9 here he is talking about his long association with Doctor Who.

Doc Oho's Big Finish audios reviews has Title Censored, they sit in silence. Doc Oho (the real name of the reviewer has been hidden behind this pseudonym to protect his identity now he has been mind wiped and integrated back into society) twitches nervously. ‘I have read your comments’ says the creator..... (Editor: when you hear the story this post relates to...you'll realise how clever this is).

Tin Dog Podcast has TDP 141: Revisitations Box set overview, Revisitations 1 is a 7 disc boxset containing updated and remastered versions of three previous Doctor Who DVD releases with 3 extra discs of special features, which equates to over 300 mins of brand new content.

Infinite Hollywood has Mutant Reveal Dalek Review, when the Doctor Who show returned earlier in the decade, it was a natural assumption that Daleks would return as well. This led to an incredible first season episode, entitled "Dalek" where we see what has happened to the last remaining Dalek after the Time War. It's also the first time we see inside a Dalek in the new series and one of the most graphic depictions of a Dalek in the series entirely.
