Ever come across a news story that makes you do a double take? Well I came across this article, and just for a moment I thought of The Doctor. As you can see, it is possible to have multiple hearts and not be a Timelord.

Over the past few weeks, there have been more news about the upcoming series of Doctor Who. So far the only thing we know for sure is that the new series will have at least 14 episodes. This is counting the next Christmas special. So really all we know is the new series will have about as many episodes as all the other normal series. However, recently former 7th Doctor and Ace actors were interviewed and they mentioned how they would like to come back to the show for the anniversary.

As you can see, there is the suggestion that past actors could come back, not as The Doctor, but as other characters, like a villain. I can see the appeal of doing this, as many of the actors do not exactly look like they use to. However, for the most part this is really on a problem for Tom and Colin Baker, the 4th and 6th Doctors. The current show has already presented the 5th Doctor, and with a little makeup, McCoy would look like he did in the TV movie. We do not know when The 8th Doctor regenerated so really there is no big problem for McGann.

Personally I think it would be great for the 7th Doctor to show up in something other than a video image.

Okay so it is only a trailer and for a movie that will not come out for another year, but I think you will all agree, this little teaser trailer was one of the best pieces of cinema in 2011.
So why are we talking about The Hobbit on this site? Simple, Sylvester McCoy, the 7th Doctor, plays Radagast the Brown in the upcoming Hobbit films.

Here is a special treat for everyone. The BBC released a prequel episode for the upcoming Christmas special.

So what do you think? Pretty exciting no?

Unlike some Doctor Who mini episodes created in the past for Children in Need, this year’s instalment breaks the fourth wall just a bit. Check it out.

So WHO is going to have the winning bid for The Doctor’s clothes?

Want to be part of a upcoming BBC America special? Well WHO would not? Check out the following video for details.

So go on over to the official You Tube page and post your video reply there.

Earlier this year there was a competition for British children to write a mini episode of Doctor Who. In the final Doctor Who Confidential this mini episode was revealed.
I guess this took place during The Doctor’s farewell tour?

Just something to tide everyone over till the series finale.

So how many of us are going to make this our answering machine message?
