To continue my Doctor Who theme, I’ve taken a look at the Time Lord’s companions. As the Doctor’s most trusted friends and allies, companions have shared his battles, restrained his fury, and more often than not gotten captured a few times too. 10. Peri Brown (Fifth and Sixth Doctors) Like many of the Doctor’s companions […]
The Doctor travels in the TARDIS (Time And Relative Dimensions In Space) , a vehicle unique to Doctor Who as it can travel not only in Space but in Time as well. The Doctor’s TARDIS is often described as a Type 40, first by the Time Lords in the Baker era, and echoed by Matt […]
In the wake of Matt Smith’s debut yesterday as the Eleventh Doctor, I’m going to indulge my inner (and outer) geek with a couple of Who-themed posts. First up: my 10 favourite episodes from the whole series both old and new. Have I got it all wrong? Leave a comment! 10: Parting of the Ways […]
