Doctor Who: July 2005 Archives
15 or under?
Get over to the Blue Peter site and design a Doctor Who monster!
The winning monster design will be used in the second series of 'Doctor Who'. It has to be a prosthetic monster, that means that an actor has to be able to wear a mask or costume, no computer special effects required....
The overall winner will not only have their design brought to life by the 'Doctor Who' team and see their monster appear in one of the episodes of the new series, but they will also be taken to visit the 'Doctor Who' film set in Wales!
How cool is that?!
The BBC site has some cool wallpaper pics of the new Doctor and Rose here. David Tennant is looking cool and mysterious, whilst Billie Piper is looking quite sexy.
Some photos taen during the shooting of the new DOctor Who episode are online, the details are on
Outpost Gallifrey.
Nothing too much to see (apart from the zombie-alien Father Christmas's!). And they all have annoying watermarks too. Booo.
When used to open a beer or soda sound is activated "Alert! Alert! It has been exterminated!"
Every home needs one.

This made me laugh...
As Doctor Who Sees Itself. Journalist Nick Griffiths interviews Russell T Davies (Radio Times, 4-10 June). NG: `Why do you think the show has been a success?' RTD: `... Our greatest decision was not to "science fiction" it too much.' [HS] Thus, with austere understatement, Earth is attacked by mere millions of Daleks rather than billions of talking squid from outer space.
BBC NEWS | Entertainment | TV and Radio | Doctor Who stars up for TV awards
"Doctor Who stars Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper are in the running for best actor and actress honours at this year's National Television Awards."
They're very much a populist award (the soaps have entire categories), which must be a good thing for Doctor Who. It appears that anyone can vote....hmmm....
