Walking in a Winter Webland - Blog Entry #1

Hey there all, and welcome to my first blog entry by me, Ellis. So 9 days to go till the airing of A Christmas Carol and of course Christmas day. and being online at Christmas time can be a big thing for me. aepecially on Forums, Blogs and other websites. With rushing last minute problems and new banners and all the news happening, Doctor Who is one of the biggest news stories to report!
Anything is always better when it is christmas themed so thats why I love everything everyone does at this Festive time. From Life, Doctor Who and Combom to WhovianNet, many sites are celebrating This christmas Period with a type of Advent Calendar which in my case sums up Christmas. New Gifts and Special Treats get published everyday in December in all kinds away so that why Christmas in the whoniverse is so important.
Doctor Who MagazineAnd today another treat was out in shops, Doctor Who Magazine issue 429. This issue is a Christmas special and is packed full with new Features, a wonderful Comic, A fantastic Preview of 'A Christmas Carol' and Some Great, Shiny Art Cards free with it. you can buy it from all newsagents priced £4.99 and you can follow there official Twitter Account here
Another Great thing at Christmas is the gifts and presents. Christmas is the best time for great Merchandise to get released from Figures, Books, DVD's and Stationary. These are great if your a Doctor Who Fan to open on Christmas Day. if you like me than you will love the figure Collection and with new Figure sets being released at least 5 days before Christmas, there a great Buy for Kids and Collectors of any ages for the big day.
But probably the most important in the Whoniverse is the Episodes themselves. 'A Christmas Carol' stars Matt Smith in his first ever Christmas Special, which is written by Steven Moffat, as he makes his own version of the ghost of Christmas Past from the Famous book written by Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol.
So if you Celebrating a Christmas where Doctor Who is important, make it perfect with things like Merchandise, Tv and Of Course Doctor Who on the Internet.
Merry Christmas.

A Christmas Carol Reviews and Round-Up

As the BFI Screening was yesterday a bunch of Teasers and Reviews have made it on the net.

SFX Twenty Teasers from 'A Christmas Carol':

01. The episode is a tour de force for Matt Smith. Amy and Rory are pretty much sidelined as Smith explodes like a force of nature from the screen. He is magnificent

02. It’s fantasy, through and through. It’s a Christmas whimsy that pays mere lip service to science fiction. This is Moffat’s vision of the show as a dark fairy tale taken further than ever before. We’re predicting some people will have a problem with this. Your enjoyment may be in relation to your ability to suspend disbelief

03. Two articles of clothing from the Doctor’s past make cameo appearances

04. There’s an unexpected continuity reference to the Tom Baker story “Pyramids Of Mars”

05. The Doctor is asked for some advice that he cannot give

06. The Doctor gets married

07. Katherine can act. You might be worried about a singer who’s never acted before taking on such a major role, but she’s really very good.

08. There are more witty, quotable lines per minute than ever before

09. Some of the FX are outstanding, but a couple are, well, shall we just say… over-ambitious

10. The production design is stunning

11. It’s not the most action-packed of Christmas special. There are some great, exciting set pieces, but mostly it’s a character piece

12. Michael Gambon is, of course, amazing.

13. The names in the opening titles are all Christmas-ed up

14. It’s fish and ships for Christmas!

15. It’s very, very, very Christmassy, and quite emotional

16. There’s a trailer for next season at the end (roll over for spoilery info: the Utah shoot looks incredible, we think we spotted an Ood, and there is a mention of Jammy Dodgers!)

17. Two of the Doctor’s trusted aides aren’t quite so reliable

18. Parents may hope that children won’t ask them to explain one gag

19 The final shot would make a good Christmas card

20. The Doctor has one major costume change (other than ones involving putting Father
Christmas hats on)

Digital Spy Ten Teasers from 'A Christmas Carol' :

01.The Doctor finally tells a lie too big for the psychic paper.
02. "The other half is ****** the *****."
03. We learn exactly why bow-ties are cool.
04. Abigail breaks into song twice, but there's an interesting reason why.
05. The Doctor once spent a revealing evening with Frank Sinatra, Einstein and Father Christmas.
06. "Why are they singing?" "For ***** *****."
07. Turns out The Doctor is rubbish at card tricks.
08. "Marilyn, get your coat!"
09. Kazran gets a glimpse at his past, present and future - but not in the way you might expect.
10. "No chance. Completely impossible. Except at Christmas."

Matt Smith Interview and Clips:

There will probably be more Reviews later so we will have them covered as soon as we find them.

Loads More Doctor Who A Christmas Carol Pictures

Today loads of Pictures and stills have been released.
There was also a Press Pack for the Christmas Special:
Its the deepest part of winter, the exact midpoint, Christmas Eve - halfway out of the dark. Amy and Rory are trapped on a stricken space liner that's plummeting through banks of thick icy fog to the surface of the planet below.

Only one man has the power to save them; only one man is in possession of a machine that can clear the fog and let them land safely.

That man is Kazran Sardick, a rich but lonely old miser who rules Sardicktown with a sky-mast of iron.

The Doctor's only chance of rescuing the ship's four thousand passengers is to save Kazran's soul and show him that life is worth living. For this he needs to go back, way back, to when Kazran was a boy with a life full of promise.

But can the Doctor put a song in Kazran's heart and love in his life, in time for Christmas? Can he bring him out of the dark?
So on to the Pictures:








A Christmas Carol is on Christmas Day, 6pm, BBC One.

Product Of The Day - SFX Doctor Who Special Collection Issue

Out Today is the first in two years from SFX, Which is a Special Doctor Who Collection Issue on the Build up to Christmas:
It’s been two and a half years since we last produced a special devoted to Doctor Who – good grief, has it really been that long? – so we figured it was high time that we did another. Doctor Who: A Celebration is the end result. 100% unofficial and independent, it’s an 132-page magazine which comes with three free gifts: a genuine bow tie (not a naff plastic novelty – a proper fabric one!), and two slogan badges (and they’re big ‘uns too – each five centimetres in diameter), all tucked inside a card wallet.

This Special Issue Features:
EXCLUSIVE CAST INTERVIEWS
We speak to Matt Smith, Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill about series five, the Christmas special, and how their characters have developed.
100 THINGS WE LOVE ABOUT WHO
A bumper-sized feature which runs down just a few of the gazillion reasons why we adore this series with a passion bordering on insanity. And if you’re thinking this’ll be some dreary roll call of the bleedin’ obvious, think again…
MY LIFE AS A DALEK
Voice of the Daleks Nick Briggs and Dalek operator Barnaby Edwards spill the beans on what it’s like bringing the series’ greatest monsters to life.
RTD VS MOFFAT
Who’s the best producer – Russell T Davies or Steven Moffat? That’s the big question when it comes to the modern-day series. There’s only way to decide, of course… fiiiiiiiiight! Oh alright, a reasoned debate on the matter…
COSTUME DESIGNS
Series five costume designer Ray Holman talks us through some of his work, with drawings for the likes of the Eleventh Doctor and a Silurian warrior, and a smattering of behind-the-scenes photos.
AUTHORS ON WHO
A trio of opinion pieces penned by a triumvirate of SF & fantasy titans. Discworld overlord Sir Terry Pratchett, Elric creator Michael Moorcock and hard SF boffin Stephen Baxter share their memories of Who, and try to put their finger on the series’ ineffable magic.
KATY MANNING
As Jo Grant, who travelled alongside the Third Doctor, she was one of the series’ best-loved companions; now she’s earned a legion of new fans thanks to her appearance on The Sarah Jane Adventures. Katy Manning talks to us about Jon Pertwee, Matt Smith and those naughty photos of her and a Dalek…
THE FIENDISHLY DIFFICULT DOCTOR WHO PICTURE PUZZLE
A double-page brainteaser within which are hidden – in cryptic pictorial form – the titles of a whopping 65 Doctor Who stories – both from the old series and the noughties revival. So, that dragon breathing fire (see left) is “Dragonfire”, to give you just one example! Guaranteed to delight/infuriate you for hours!
SPECIAL EFFECTS
Visual effects experts Mat Irvine and Mike Tucker are in a unique position to discuss Who’s effects, having worked on both the classic series and the new show. Their candid discussion of the challenges they faced is accompanied by lashings of behind-the-scenes images (including some fascinating sketches for the original Davros).
THE LEADWORTH CHRONICLE
All the news that’s fit to print (and some that isn’t…) from Amy and Rory’s local rag!

THE MISSING EPISODES
Sadly, 108 instalments of the classic series are missing, presumed lost forever, thanks to BBC’s junking policy of the ’60s and ’70s. Richard Molesworth, author of new book Wiped! Doctor Who’s Missing Episodes, tells the full story of how so many episodes came to be destroyed – and how many were later recovered.
THE MINUTES OF THE PANDORICA ALLIANCE
Even evil alien alliances have to have the occasional planning meeting. This transcript of one such session, found crumpled up in a bin in an office in Didcot, provides a fascinating insight into how their over-complicated scheme came about…
WHO’S 25 SILLIEST MOMENTS
From the “robot double” that looks nothing like William Hartnell to that burping Auton wheelie bin, via Ingrid Pitt kung-fu kicking a reptilian pantomime horse… a complete rundown of the series’ daftest bits.

WHO CRAFTING
Showcasing the creativity of some of the people who make their own Doctor Who dolls, toys and costumes.
ARTHUR “DIES DAILY” DARVILL VS MURDEROUS MOFFAT
In this old-school cartoon (which somehow dropped back in time to a ’70s comic), the showrunner thinks up ever-more diabolical ways in which to bump off the actor who plays Rory.
MARATHON FAN
Writer and comedian Toby Hadoke (creator of the brilliant Moths Ate My Doctor Who Scarf) recently rewatched (or listened to) every episode of the series, in a year-long marathon. He shares what he learnt from the experience.
THE ELEVENTH DOCTOR COMIC
American comic publishers IDW kick off a new Eleventh Doctor range in January. We talk to writer Tony Lee about his plans, and exclusively reveal character designs for the series.

WHO SNOGLINES
Who’s kissed who in the Whoniverse? Back in the day, you could answer that with one word. Nowadays, the answer is rather more complicated…
IN-DEPTH REVIEWS
Back by popular demand: our mindboggingly geeky 26-page episode guide sees us analyse every episode of series five in forensic detail – minute by minute, second by second. It’s the next best thing to having an SFX commentary track on the DVDs!
20 USEFUL THINGS WE LEARNED…
What life lessons can be gleaned from the Eleventh Doctor’s first run of adventures? Quite a few, it turns out…
SERIES SIX PICS
A selection of snazzy paparazzi shots from the filming of the latest series.
Phew! The SFX Doctor Who Special Collection Issue is out now in good Newsagents and other stores priced £7.99.

    Christmas Special 'Not set on Earth'

    Piers Wenger Talks Christmas,
    Matt Smth and Series 6
    Executive Producer Piers Wenger has revealed in a recent interview with Collider that the Upcoming Christmas special Will 'Not Be set on Earth'. Piers explains "It kind of riffs on the Dickens story. There’s no one called Scrooge in it and it’s not set on Earth, but there are familiar archetypes from that story within it that will please fans of Dickens’s original". This will be the first christmas Special to be set away from earth since the first 2005.
    Piers also goes onto to talk about series 6 and he Utah Filming: "The team left the UK on Saturday and is traveling out to Utah, to Mojave, where they’re filming some scenes. There are scenes set in New York and San Francisco. It is Doctor Who’s love letter to the States. Last year started with the TARDIS crash-landing on Big Ben in London and that was an opportunity for British audiences to be reminded of Doctor Who’s British heritage. But this year, it’s all about America, it’s all about taking the show out to the States and seeing what Doctor Who will feel like set in America and in some very iconographic parts of the American landscape".
