Dalek Halloween costume

Amplify’d from blog.makezine.com

Uwe and Chris Oehler of Guelph, ON, built this 5' Dalek costume, basing their initial design on the "official" blueprints found on Make: Online.

My son and I make a Halloween costume each year. In the past he's been such things as an astronaut, a steam punk robot, a kid with a fish eating his head, and in 2009 Boba Fett. This year we tried for our most ambitious costume yet; a DALEK from the popular TV series "Dr Who". Halloween costumes only have to last a few days so I've always been one to build using the cheapest materials I can find. Usually this means using discarded cardboard boxes, some acrylic or spray paint, and a roll of tape. This year we splurged and added styrofoam balls and some caster wheels. The DALEK stands about 5' tall and fits my 11 year old son well. Standing inside he can easily peer through the vision slots we cut into the bottom of the domed head. Read more at blog.makezine.com

BBC Doctor Who - The Night After Hallowe'en: Prologue

Amplify’d from www.bbc.co.uk

By Mark B. Oliver

Justin shivered, as the wind whipped around him. Instinctively he pulled his parka hood further across his face, he was very cold, and very lost. 'Thank heavens the moon's bright,' he muttered to himself as he glanced upwards. The moonlight cast eerie shadows around the forest he had been trudging through for hours. 'Mum is never gonna let me forget this,' he sighed. After all, she had warned him not to go hiking alone. 'Poor Mum, she's probably worried sick.' He should have been home hours ago but somehow had wandered off the path and had been struggling to find his way out of the trees ever since. Pulling his compass from his pocket, Justin held it up to the moonlight but it just wasn't bright enough to make the needle out clearly. Exasperated, he put it away and continued to weave through the forest. The wind suddenly picked up, great gusts that newly blew him over. And then it dawned on him. 'That's not wind.' Glancing up he could see a dark object flying just above the tree line; the branches smoldering from the heat. Realizing that it was going to crash, Justin started to run. The pilot and passengers were going to need help. The noise was deafening as the craft passed overhead and sprinting now, Justin struggled to keep up. Ahead of him, he could hear a deafening roar as it plummeted towards the forest; there was an almighty splash and then silence. Justin raced into a clearing, a large lake lay before him, but there was no sign of any airplane, no wreckage, no noise even. It was as though the entire world had fallen silent. 'Surely it can't be that deep?' Frantically he glanced around, slipping his rucksack off his back as he did so, dropping it to the ground. Sweating profusely, he unzipped his parka and made his way to the water's edge. The water was perfectly still, the moonlight reflecting off the mirror-like surface. The young man, sank to the ground, his feet stretched out before him. Had he imagined it? Was he that tired? Dehydrated maybe? Slowly his breathing returned to normal as he calmed down. The lake looked beautiful in the moonlight; so peaceful. Justin pulled his mobile from his rucksack - maybe he would finally have a signal. 'Yes!' he exclaimed with relief. Just half a bar, but if he kept very still... As he dialed his mum, he could see a fish swimming by the water's edge, just underneath the surface of the water. He turned his attention back to his mobile. 'Come on, come on.' Without warning a gnarled, bony hand reached up from the water and grabbed his ankle, holding it tight. Terrified, Justin dropped his phone and tried to break free, but whatever had him was immensely strong. Using his other leg and his hands he tried desperately to clamber away, but the grip was too tight. To his horror, it was pulling him into the lake. He tried to scream out, but no sound would come. He tried in vain to find something to grab onto, anything, but his fingers just clawed at the soft dirt. He was on his back, up to his waist in water, being dragged in. On the bank, his discarded mobile lay in the soil. 'Justin, Justin, is that you?' But Justin was gone, the lake quiet and calm once more. 'If this is one of your Hallowe'en pranks I'm really not impressed, young man. You might find it funny...' The words were beginning to sound desperate over the still, silent water. 'But nobody's laughing.' Don't forget to come back on Monday for The Night After Hallowe'en: Part One. Read more at www.bbc.co.uk

Dislocated Life has “This song is ending, but the story never ends …”, The last time Sarah Jane Smith laid eyes on her time-traveling friend the Doctor he was standing grimly outside his TARDIS, in the midst of making his “victory lap” to visit his friends and help them all out one last time as the man they knew from four years of journeys through time and space.

Den Of Geek has The Sarah Jane Adventures series 3 DVD review, with the newest series of The Sarah Jane Adventures currently airing on both CBBC and BBC One, it's time to look back at the previous year's run with the now obligatory pre-Christmas complete DVD release.

Infinite Hollywood has Doctor Who Morbius Creature Review, today we're looking at the Frankenstein-like monster from the very Hammer Horror influenced 4th Doctor episode, The brain of Morbuis. I actually reviewed the DVD of this serial back in August, so I was excited to come full circle and review the toy of the monster from this episode.

Tea with Morbius has The Claws of Axos, the Third Doctor and Jo help UNIT deal with alien invaders, but the Master gets involved (again..).

Classical Gallifrey has Serial 93: The Invisible Enemy, ...is firmly rooted in mediocre Doctor Who, perhaps elevated again by the script editing of Robert Holmes (as we'll see as well in the next few weeks) but also lowered by the newly arrived takeover by Graham Williams as producer.

The Edwardian Adventurer has 008 -The Ambush, Temmosus is slaughtered by The Daleks, his corpse falling into the food that was used to lure The Thals into the city. These Daleks seem to be a bit of an untrustworthy group.

BBC Doctor Who: Interview with Russell T Davies

Amplify’d from www.bbc.co.uk

To celebrate the Doctor's reunion with Sarah Jane and Jo Grant, the SJA website reveals an exclusive interview with Death of the Doctor writer, Russell T Davies at 4pm today. The former Doctor Who Executive Producer is on great form as he discusses writing for the Eleventh Doctor, bringing back Jo Grant, creating the Shansheeth and stepping back into the Time Lord's world. The interview goes live at 4pm today, but in case you can't wait until then, here's a sneaky preview... Q: Out of all the Doctor's companions who could have appeared in the episodes, why did you choose Jo Grant to come back and help Sarah Jane and the Doctor save the day? Russell: Well, I would have had them all, if we'd had the money! But Jo and Sarah Jane just seem to fit together, in my mind - probably because I was that viewer, watching at 10 years old, when Lis replaced Katy. And once Sarah Jane had arrived - trivia time here, fact fans - they did a story with Sarah Jane and the Third Doctor, called Planet of the Spiders, in which Jo wrote the Doctor a letter from the Amazon. Now that sounds tiny. But in those days, old companions never did things like that, never. Never ever! Once gone, they'd never be mentioned again. So to me, as a kid, that was huge, and meant that Jo really was part of Sarah Jane's world. It's funny, that little scene, I loved it so much when I was young that it informed my entire thinking on Doctor Who, since I brought it back in 2005. That people who are gone, aren't really gone. Just like life. Don't forget, you can read more about the Doctor Who references in part one of Death of the Doctor and find out more about Jo Grant. If you missed Death of the Doctor, watch it from the SJA website now! Read more at www.bbc.co.uk
