Forbidden Planet has A Christmas Carol Original Soundtrack CD, the 2010 edition was the third most watched programme on December 25th with 12.1m viewers and the fourth most viewed episode since the programme's revival in 2005. The thrilling seasonal adventure starring Matt Smith as the eleventh doctor featured stellar guest stars Michael Gambon and Katherine Jenkins. The musical maestro himself, Murray Gold, provides his usual eloquent, immaculately crafted soundtrack. Opera diva Jenkins captivated audiences with Abigail's Song (Silence Is All You Know) featured on this release.
Also available to pre-order is Gemini Contagion, the ice-planet Vinsk, in the year 2112. The all-new anti-viral handwash, Gemini, has been laced with Meme-Spawn: a sentient micro-organism which makes the user fluent in every language in the universe. However, manufacturer Zalnex made one crucial mistake. They didn't test Gemini on humans, who are seized by the violent urge to communicate but speak every language all at once - with a manic, garbled shriek - and pass on the virus by touch.....
The Doctor Who Experience Roundup
BBC Doctor Who has Doctor Who Experience, Part Four - Gallery number three..., today's gallery covers Angels, outfits and Daleks. We'll be bringing you more Doctor Who Experience next week, including videos and coverage of Sunday's launch.
Daily Mail has Now fans can enjoy the Time Lord in his intergalatic battle with evil, We are about to embark on The Doctor Who Experience, an exhibition which combines interactive action with fascinating walk-through displays. Committed Who-fans are at last able to come face to face with the Doctor — played by the latest incumbent, Matt Smith, in specially filmed scenes — and get up close and uncomfortably personal with his scariest enemies.
HeroPress has I Flew In The TARDIS!, organised into regimented 30-minute time slots (we were 2pm), the 'experience' begins with an introductory film voiced by Matt Smith (The Eleventh Doctor - see right for his mannequin and costume), then the screen divides in two - like a 'crack in time' - and you walk through onto Starship UK, where one of the information nodes from Silence In The Library starts to point objects out to you before the real adventure begins...
SFX has Doctor Who Experience – Review, "there’s something I don’t understand. I had a Dalek plunger thrust in my face twice yesterday – once for real, and once as part of 3D voyage through the time vortex – and the “virtual” plunger was by the far the freakier experience of the two. I would say scarier, but at my age, in my job, admitting to being scared by Daleks isn’t something to go public with. But staring into that 3D plunder was certainly, well, intimidating. Let’s just say that for the first time since I was a kid I could recall exactly why the ranting pepperpots seemed so scary....."
The Doctor Who Site has Doctor Who Experience – Review/Pictures, the first thing to say is that we are not going to spoil anything of the experience itself here that isn’t already known – needless to say the less you know about it the more you will enjoy it!....
The Sun also covers the Experience with Sneak peek at Doc Who show, after a short pep talk, visitors are ushered through a Tardis door into a life-size replica of the famous blue box's control console, complete with flashing lights and a moving floor....
This is London has The Doctor will see you now… show is a Who's Who for fans, the TARDIS materialises in the corner, and everyone is ushered in. The floor around the central control console shakes and I have to grab a handrail to stay upright. The Time Lord barks orders at us to help us regain control of the ship. But our efforts are in vain as we are captured by the Daleks, taken aboard their ship and told we are about to be exterminated....
gibbspaulus YouTubed The 80's console room, The Doctor Who Experience, Feb 17th 2011, "seeing this makes me go all gooey. I had to go over and go 'oooh' and admire all the bits that you missed on telly."Scanner selected posts...
Spalding Guardian has ‘Thugs won’t stop me dressing as Doctor Who’, a Doctor Who dress-a-like has vowed not to be put off from donning his outfit after a savage beating in Spalding, which left him with a broken jaw, Jonathan Kelly (28), of Weston Hills, was attacked following an incident on the night of the Spalding Pumpkin Parade after a gang of youths had tried to take his prized hat, which is in the style of Peter Davison’s fifth incarnation of the popular television timelord......
Fandomania has Geek Music: 15 Songs about Doctor Who, while compiling my list of Time Travel songs, I ran across tons of Doctor Who-related music. I decided that rather than try to make one huge list I’d make a second list of trock (Time Lord Rock) songs. Not all on this list are really rock songs, but they are all about Doctor Who. I also have to give some credit to Sarah from the Trocklafane podcast for introducing me to several of the songs on this list....
Tachyon TV has Andrew O’Neill, What is your current mood? Tired but happy. What is your most prized item of Doctor Who merchandise? 1st issue of Doctor Who magazine complete with transfers? My Dapol TARDIS is pretty cool. Er... and Colin Baker lives in my kitchen!...
Big Finish has Lucie Miller CD Extras - Free Download, it has come to our attention that there is an audio fault on the download version of the CD Extras for Doctor Who: Lucie Miller, the error occurs in the closing minutes of the behind-the-scenes documentary, and consists of an annoying, repeating, clicking sound which increases and decreases in volume. This error was not present on the CD master sent to our production office for checking, but was unfortunately present on the version sent to our web editor for uploading. At the moment, we do not know whether this error exists on the CD versions, as copies of the finished product have not yet arrived at our production office, we hope you will accept our sincerest apologies for this drop in our usually high professional standards. To make amends, we're offering this free podcast version of the CD Extras (without annoying clicking)....WhoTube....
The Doctor calls WOTAN, the Doctor's call to the Post Office Tower is re-routed to WOTAN with devasting consequences. Is he too about to become the next to fall underWOTAN's mind-controlling spell. Classic clip from the 1966 four-part story 'The War Machines' starring William Hartnell as the Doctor.
War Machine vs WOTAN, WOTAN uses Professors Brett and Krimpton like pawns on a chess board as it tries to defend itself from the War Machine as it fires its smoke weapon indiscriminately in the control room. Classic clip from the 1966 four-part story 'The War Machines' starring William Hartnell as the Doctor.

Radio Free Skaro has 238 - The Lobby Was The Time, Gallifrey One is in full swing and the first of the daily Radio Free Skaro was screaming out to be released. Of course, being the first episode for Gally it can mean only one thing – PODCEST! The topic of the day was the convention, naturally, and a Warrenless crew comprised of Chip from Two-minute Time Lord, Eric from Mostly Harmless Cutaway, Tim from Tim’s Take On, Erik from Bridging The Rift, Paul from Pharos Project and Katrina from Bridging The Rift joined Steven and Chris for a round table tête-a-tête-a-tête-a-tête-a-tête-a-tête-a-tête-a-tête and later on we sat down with Ken from Podshock for more Gally talk. Let the madness begin!
Tim's Take On has Episode 57 (Gallifrey Diary), getting here and surviving your first Lobbycon. My first podcast about Gallifrey One 2011 covers my journey to the event, my tour of LA and culminates in the organised chaos that is Lobby Con.

Review's Roundup...
The Edwardian Adventurer has 093 – Devil’s Planet (The Daleks’ Master Plan Part 3), we finally leave the planet Kembel and begin the planet-hopping that will mark the rest of the story. You could say The Chase is on. Yes, I deliberately invoke the previous Dalek story because structurally, it is similar. However, this isn’t Richard Martin’s version of The Chase, this is the Douglas Camfield version, and so far, so good. We’ll address the similarities as they become more apparent....
Doc Oho's Big Finish audios reviews has The Song of Megaptera written by Pat Mills and directed by John Ainsworth, deep space in the distant future, and Captain Greeg and his crew are hunting mile-long Space Whales on a vast harvesting ship. By pure accident, they also capture the TARDIS. The Doctor and Peri must use all their wits to survive. But what is the creature running loose in the ship's bowels? And can the Doctor save Megaptera before its song is extinguished forever?....
Blogtor Who has "A Christmas Carol" soundtrack by Murray Gold, you may remember from my reviews of Murray Gold's exceptional soundtracks to The Specials and Series 5 that I commented on how we Doctor Who fans were being spoiled with regards to the music releases. Well, blimey - there was more to come. 2006 saw just one disc cover 28 episodes; five years on and we're getting a CD (or download if you're under thirty - smiley emoticon) for just one hour of Who goodness. Complaining? Am I eff!...
Tea with Morbius has The Keeper of Traken, "I love the way the JNT era blends hard science with mysticism. While you get a certain amount of Star Trekky science stuff in this story, you also get a whole bag of spiritual ideas. Not only is there the idea of a fantasy world where evil is supernaturally eradicated, but there is the medieval idea of sacral monarchy where the king somehow maintains the harmony of the balance of nature, a kind of musical arrangement of the cosmos by an hierarchy of celestial powers, along with the Hellenistic idea of prime numbers being the source of power in the universe and everything that goes with the mythology of gardens....."Outer Space Book and a Pick of the Tweets...

Give the baba a kiss fer me." Hopefully more clarification soon! |
