Next week there’s no far-off planets or cosmic vistas, but where the Who Crew land is nearly as alien. Finding oneself in 17th century Lancashire in the middle of witch trials isn’t high on anyone’s bucket list. But don’t be fooled that a simple time brings simpler challenges – there may be more afoot than […]
Well, this is a rare treat, at least for this series/season of Doctor Who. This week we get a rare and generously long sneak peek of Kerblam! All the thanks for this goes to Children in Need, the UK charity that helps disadvantaged children. Each year, the charity puts on a show and Doctor Who […]
We’re spoiled; terribly spoiled. After the announcement that there would be no Doctor Who Christmas Special this year, some fans went into a meltdown. I can neither confirm nor deny I was one of them. Let’s just say I ate 3 packs of Jammie Dodgers and ugly cried myself to sleep. But all is not […]
I told you Director Vance was going to start coming to light. His curiosity has been piqued by Ben Stone and the more he spies on Ben and his movements, the more he’s lured into the belief that there’s “off the books” at work in his midst. And he’s not down with that. I’m delighted. […]
Jamie’s Aunt Jocasta, Irish actress/singer Maria Doyle Kennedy, answered fan questions on Twitter this afternoon. Okay Beauts , I’m here for 30-40 mins for as many questions as we can get in ( Im supposed to be in a recording studio so if I suddenly blank for a minute it’s because I’ve ducked under the […]
Outlander doesn’t shy away from tackling the hard subjects. And that’s definitely a good thing, because the books are full of difficult moments, contradictions between what was done “then” and what is done “now.” That juxtaposition, with Claire in the middle, frequently creates tension and trouble, and we know we wouldn’t have it any other […]

If you are allergic to that last one, please read no further. If you think Amazon is a large-scale retailer, you’d be right, but only by Earth standards. Next to Kablam!, […]
The second season premiere of National Geographic’s phenomenal hybrid series MARS is this Monday, November 12. Part dramatization, part documentary, all science, it’s a fascinating look at how we might get to, and survive on, Mars. The story sticks solidly to scientific facts while exploring the effects of such a mission on the human psyche. […]
We’re getting close to the next episode of Doctor Who and I’m sure you’re excited to see more. Honestly, I’m more than excited to bring you more Whovian goodness any time. Today’s goodness is a photo gallery for episode 1106 Demons of the Punjab. This, once again, takes us into the life/lives of Yasmine’s family […]
Last year, National Geographic launched an ambitious hybrid series about the red planet. Half documentary, half drama, MARS presented a highly realistic interpretation of what it will be like to colonize Mars. The dramatized story told the tale of how the first colonists might make a permanent home for themselves. Interspersed with the story were […]
