Shadowlocked has 'The Minister Of Chance' a new Doctor Who spin-off ?, "the arrival on my doorstep today of a Fortean Times-style newspaper called 'Radio Static' (coincidentally also the name of a PR company!) shed the final bit of light on a what appears to be a new Doctor Who-related spin-off called The Minister Of Chance, which even features two of the former Doctors - though they do not appear to be playing the Time Lord himself on this occasion, if you believe the cast-listing...."
Tor.com has Why a Madman is Always Better if He Has a Box, Steven Moffat, our beloved Who showrunner, has been quoted saying this in regard to the Doctor's beloved TARDIS: “I don’t care where the Doctor came from or why he travels around the universe. I just want him out of those TARDIS doors and having adventures. Us kids want Narnia, not the wardrobe.”....WhoTube....

Doctor Who - Onwards! (A TARDIS Tribute), "I've always thought of the TARDIS as a character in itself - the one that makes the Doctor's wonderful adventures possible. So I decided to make a tribute."Pick of the Blogs...
So Much More Than This… has The Silver Dream, "as a liberal-verging-on-the-out-and-out-socialist, it only makes sense that I should be drawn to things that chime with my own attitudes, and the more deeply-embedded the connection, the stronger my own affection. So it’s hardly a surprise that I can detect a rich vein of distinctly British, distinctly left-of-centre material running through my favourite TV series like lettering through a stick of rock....Podcasts...
Radio Free Skaro has released Episode 234 – Grimwade’s Syndrome, Gally news, casting details, and not-LEGO Doctor Who figures….all of which prefigured the cogent analysis and detailed examination of the (Doctor Who) career of one Peter Grimwade, one of the few polymaths to both write and direct for Doctor Who. With highlights such as Earthshock and lowlights like Time-Flight, Grimwade’s output was grist for the mill of the Three Who Rule.....
Staggering Stories has Podcast 98: Rex the Dino Runt, Andy Simpkins, Adam J Purcell, Fake Keith, Jean Riddler and the ‘Real’ Keith Dunn play a Doctor Who Quiz, talk about the new Primeval episodes, have a retrospective on the year 2010, find some general news....Stay away from these two kids, it's just a bunch of men behaving badly...
Arrow of Time has End Of Time 3: Booze Control, "so the research has been done, the episodes have been watched, and only one thing remains…beer. As you are all well aware the main thing that fuels our Who-rants is an alcoholic beverage. We really want to do our RTD episode right by drinking Stone’s Lucky Basartd. That’s no typo kids, there is actually a delicious beer that not only plays off of the term “Lucky Bastard” but also features Russell T. Davies’ intials as well. And I mean come on who isn’t a luckier bastard than RTD? Unfortunately the popularity of this beverage is making it hard to obtain and thus do a podcast with it. But don’t worry we shall come together, join forces, and either find this beverage or….just settle. Either way we’ll get something out here soon. Till next time, sorry for all the offensive language!"....

Review's Roundup...
planetzogblog has The End of the World review, like the transition between the first two stories of 1963 – and the first two stories of 2010 – these two stories flow into one another, this one starting where Rose left off, with beginning her inaugural TARDIS journey. The sheer joy of sailing in the time machine is shown by the two leads.
Doc Oho's Big Finish audios reviews has The Game written by Darin Henry and directed by Gary Russell, on the planet Cray, it's game time. The Gora and the Lineen are set to face off in the grudge match to end all grudge matches. The players are limbering up, the commentators are preparing, the fans are daubing themselves in their team's colours. The arena is set, and the kick-off is approaching. When the Doctor and Nyssa arrive, however, they find that Naxy is a sport that anyone can play - whether they want to or not. Cray's entire future depends on the match's outcome, but the time travellers soon realise that it is anything but just a game....
Bigger On The Inside has “Time can be re-written. I know it can”, bubbling under the surface of ‘Vincent and the Doctor’ is the idea of changing time. It is not the Doctor and Amy’s intention to change time but, as they grow closer to Vincent, Amy can no longer bear the foreknowledge that he will shortly commit suicide....Outer Space Book and a Pick of the Tweets...

Spoiler and Speculation Alert...
alun.vega's posterous has "I've got a theory", might as well say it here, though I must emphasise this is pure speculation, I reckon at least part of the Gower filming for Torchwood: Miracle Day will be at Rhossili, here's my reasoning...
