Jason Who?
I noticed a post on Outpost Gallifrey regarding this snippet of Yahoo news. I have no doubt that this is absolute nonsense, but think about it for a second. Jason Statham as Doctor Who… A swearier, cockerney Who, who could get all kung-fu on “Zee Daleks”. Presumably he’d have to shag his way through several [...]
Review: Torchwood – Episode 2: Day One
After the dark, rain drenched start of episode one, Torchwood‘s second episode seems a strong contrast. There’s an atmosphere of happiness as Gwen and her boyfriend are out bowling and having a good time. Presumably, they’re celebrating Gwen’s transfer to “Special Ops”. Things are cut short when a meteor of some description strikes Cardiff, and [...]
Review: Torchwood – Episode 1: Everything Changes
It begins with a CSI style sweep over Cardiff, and a crime scene. There’s blood, a corpse, rain, forensics and the police. Before anyone can do pretty much anything, they’re all cleared out. Torchwood, apparently, have told them to clear the area. Who are Torchwood? The attending officers are as in the dark as we, [...]

Doctor Who: 2 – 4: The Girl in the Fireplace

That said, Russel Davies' previous writing credits don't exactly scream "TIMELORD!" Despite my concerns, Moffat's two [...]
Doctor Who: 2 – 3: School Reunion
It's important to remember that Doctor Who isn't just for adults. There's a great deal for adults to enjoy, that's always been the case, but this is television that's not exclusively aimed at us so-called grown ups. Quite the opposite in fact. School Reunion, by grown up standards, isn't that great. But that's missing the [...]
