Verity Lambert : A tribute


The first producer of Doctor Who was a woman called Verity Lambert who I have to say did some excellent work on Doctor Who for I have seen some of her episodes that she produced she was born on the 27th of Novenber in London and she died shortly beofre the Christmas special from last year (Voyage of the Damned), she died on the 22nd of November aged 71.

A Verity Lambert tribute will be shown on BBC4, the channel BBC4 will dedicate a whole night to Verity Lambert who was the first ever producer of Doctor Who back in 1963, the evening of programmes that will be shown in April sometime. it will be a 4-hour documentary about her life and work and about her work on Doctor Who, Russel .T. Davies will be appearing on the show with other members of the Doctor Who team. THhe Documentary will be followed by some of her best work including a few old Doctor Who episodes.

Pest Control-BBC Audio Book



This Audio Book adventure is read by David Tennant and it features the 10th Doctor and Donna



It is written by Peter Anghelides and is exclusively for audio release



Here is the sypnosis:


The Doctor and Donna find themselves in the thick of trouble on a distant planet where soldiers transform into monstrous beetle, and everyone falls under the threat of a huge, mechanical exterminator.

Silence in the Library



The Picture above was made by me and is copyright Doctor Who Insania

A while back at a Gallifrey one convention while being interviewed Steven Moffat let loose that one of his future episodes would be called Silence in the Library and Steven Moffats 2-parter in Series 4 is set in a Library with the Doctor on an expedition to find out the secrets of the Library. This title hasn't been officially confirmed however I suspect it to be true.

The Doctors fact file




The 10 incarnations of the Doctor from top left to bottom right.

The Doctor is an alien called a Time lord, the Time Lords come from the planet Gallifrey, Time lords can regenerate into new bodies 12 times if they are hurt badly or die.The Doctors age has been said to be around 900 however the Fourth Doctor stated to be 749 years old, the seventh Doctor said to be 953 years old, when the Tenth and Ninth Doctors speak of being 900 they refer to how long they have been travelling so seeing as he stated he started travelling when he was 236 years old then that would make the current incarnation around 1136 years old which would fit in with the sated age of the older incarnations. The Doctor usually travels with a companion/s to travel with him.
His arch enemies are the Daleks who fought a Time War with the Planet of Gallifrey(home of the Time Lords) and both sides were wiped out (it is implied that this was the Doctor's doing).
The different regenerations of the Doctor and their causes can be found below:
  1. First Doctor (Hartnell): Apparently succumbed to old age, steadily growing weaker throughout and collapsing at the serial's end. Although the writer's intent was that this was due to the energy drain from the planet Mondas, this was not made clear in the transmitted story (The Tenth Planet).
  2. Second Doctor (Troughton): A forced "change in appearance" and exile to Earth by the Time Lords in the closing moments of The War Games.
  3. Third Doctor (Pertwee): radiation poisoning from the Great One's cave of crystals at the end of Planet of the Spiders.
  4. Fourth Doctor (Baker, T): Fell from the Pharos Project radio telescope in Logopolis.
  5. Fifth Doctor (Davison): Spectrox toxaemia, contracted near the start of The Caves of Androzani.
  6. Sixth Doctor (Baker, C): Suffered unspecified injuries when the Rani attacked the TARDIS and caused it to crash land at the start of Time and the Rani.
  7. Seventh Doctor (McCoy): Died in San Fransisco during exploratory heart surgery by a doctor unfamiliar with Time Lord physiology, after being hospitalised for non-life threatening gunshot wounds in the 1996 television movie.
  8. Eighth Doctor (McGann): Not yet revealed but it was implied to be a result of theTime War.
  9. Ninth Doctor (Eccleston): cellular degeneration caused by absorbing the energies of the space time vortex from Rose, which she in turn had absorbed through the heart of the TARDIS in The Parting of the Ways.
  10. Tenth Doctor (Tennant):Current incarnation
The Doctor also is an enemy of the Master who is too a Time Lord but a evil one, the Doctor has battled him many time in many of his incarnations.

Paul O' Grady in Doctor Who



The Picture above was made by me and is copyright Doctor Who Insania if any more in formation is required thhen contact me at dalek94@hotmail.co.uk.

The Sun newspaper recently reported that Paul O' Grady would appear in Doctor Who series 4 he is set to appear on his chat show discussing "strange goings-on".Many celebrities like Barbara Windsor, Mcfly, Shanon Osbourne, Trisha Goddard, Anne Widdecombe, Derek Acorah and many others have appeared on the show and most probably this will carry on.
A BBC spokesman said this:

"Paul has been desperate to be on the show for ages and asked if he could be a guest star. Fortunately Who creator Russell T Davies is a big fan of his show too, and jumped at the chance. We’ve had to wait until his chatshow is filming again so we can shoot him on the set. It will be the usual camp Paul – just maybe a bit more sinister."

So what do you all think about this

Beast fact file




The Beast appeared in the episodes Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit(2006)
The Beast said that he had many names, including Satan. He claimed that he remained imprisoned since before the universe.When the Doctor encountered him, the Beast resembled a gargantuan crimson horned figure with a corpse-like face, bound by chains.

The Beast could manifest himself through electronic media, including computer voices and, crudely, through hologram viewers. Its mind could leave its body and possess a single hive mind of the Ood collectively or a single Human individually, though not more than one at one time. He had the power of telepathy and, through a host, telekinesis, manifest fire from his mouth and affect the hosts skin, causing strange markings to appear all over their face and body, and vocal chords, allowing them to speak with different pitches simultaneously.. His hosts could also physically survive in a vacuum indefinitely.

Though the exact circumstances are unknown, it is known that the Disciples of the light confined the Beast to the planet later known as Krop Tor and placed the planet in orbit around the black hole K37 Gem 5 . If he ever tried to escape, the field holding the planet in orbit would stop and the planet would be sucked into the black hole.The Beast claimed to have existed before time, a claim the Doctor found difficult to accept.

The Beast spread his influence throughout the cosmos. He claimed that the devils and demons that appear in various religions were based on him.

The Beast had a son known as Abaddon.

The Beast possessed Toby Zed, a crew member of the Walker Expedition Sanctuary Base.
Through Toby Zed, the Beast's first action was to kill Scooty Manista by breaking one of the windows (the Beast and those he possesses can survive in a total vacuum of air ). The Base's Ood were taken over. Upon the Ood's defeat, the Beast planned to escape by keeping his spirit in Toby's body, leaving his physical body behind. The Doctor deactivated the force holding Krop Tor in orbit (the beasts' body) thus making the planet fall in to the black hole.

The Beast's original body was destroyed when Krop Tor fell into K37 Gem 5 and his spirit is believed to have been destroyed when Toby's body was pulled into K37 Gem 5 after Rose shot the front window in the escape spacecraft so he would be sucked out because Rose took of his seat-belt, although he claimed that he would never be truly destroyed.

Timeline

Impossible planet/The Satan Pit(2006):The Doctor and Rose land on a planet which is standing up to the pull of black hole, but what is the source of this power? Have Rose and the Doctor gone to far? Will what they witness be too much for them?.....

Abaddon fact file

Abaddon was a Demon and the son of the Beast.

imprisoned beneath the Rift possibly by the disciples of the light as they imprisoned his father on the planet Krop Tor.

A 1827 archaelogical expedition excavating the ruins of Babylon and found a stone tablet depicting a great demon standing above a city.

Bilis Manger, considering himself Abbadon's servant, set in motion of series of events designed to manipulate the entire Torchwood 3 team into using a technological device to open the Rift and so release the demon. This done, the Rift released Abaddon and he appeared. Abaddon seems to share none of the intelligence of his father and was not shown to speak or plan. There is still the possibility that he was the one who created the plot, rather than Bilis Manger himself.

The fall of Abbadon. (TW: End of Days)

The fall of Abbadon.
The shadow of Abaddon killed any person who it fell upon and fed upon their life energy. Only the immortal Jack Harkness stood in his way. He was eventually killed by Abaddon, the Demon dying in the process due to feeding upon to much life enrgy.However Jack came back to life after a few days.

Judoon fact file




The Judoon appeared in Smith and Jones(2007)The Judoon are a race of rhinocerous-headed humanoids employed, as the Doctor put it, as "police-for-hire" (or, he added, "interplanetary thugs"). Judoon are two-metre high humanoids with a stocky build and rhinocerous-like heads. They have large lungs to help with breathing even in environments with low levels of oxygen.

Judoon are brutish and meted out punishments that might seem cruel to some races (for example, physical assault incurred one of the Judoon's favourite punishments, execution). However, they still operated under Galactic law. They have the right to execute without proper trial. The Doctor suggested they operated in terms of guilt by association, claiming they might kill everyone in the Royal Hope Hospital for assisting their suspect.Their language was composed of many one-syllable words ending in a long "o" sound. Each sentence was composed of several of these words hyphenated together.The Doctor described them them as logical but stupid and they seemed to favour methodical patterns of behavior, to a fault.


The 'execution' punishment the Judoon are so fond of was delivered using a directed energy weapon with a red beam. The Judoon had scanners which would tell the Judoon the species of the scanned being. However, the scanners could be fooled by previous close contact with another species. Metamorphic beings capable of altering their internal biology using assimilated biomatter could also deceive the scan. They also had translation devices which worked by analysing the recorded voice of a being. The translation was reciprocal.

In general, their technology was a dark red or black colour, and most instruments, such as their weapons, scanners and translators, were thick and pen-shaped, simiar to a large sonic screwdriver. They did have a pen, a thick marker pen, used to mark "catalogued" people - those who had been scanned and deemed to not be a suspect - on their right hand.

The Judoon also have a contact device that reaches every Judoon helmet, allowing the Judoon Captain to give orders with a press of a button, albeit not pen-shaped. It is the same device as the language assimilator.

Their spacecrafts are large cylindrical craft, with four boosters at the bottom and four claws at the bottom which seved as landing gear. Each craft could hold several thousand Judoon in troops of several hundred each. Three of these craft landed on the Moon.

The Judoon could also use H20 scoop to transport buildings across space and shield them with force fields as required by Galactic law.

Timeline

Smith and Jones(2008):On meeting the mysterious John Smith(the Doctor), medical student Martha Jones finds her life turned upside-down. A lightning storm and some upside-down rain send the Royal Hope Hospital to the Moon, and Martha must cope with the brutal Judoon, an intergalactic police force, and a blood-sucking Plasmavore. John Smith(the Doctor), her ally in the crisis, soon proves he is no ordinary patient...

Judoon to return in Series 4?



The picture above was made by me and is copyright Doctor Who Insania
When the Judoon hit our screens last year, I like many fans of the show took to them very well and I have been hoping that we might see them again in the near future well I my hopes have been answered so for me the big question is will the Judoon return to Doctor Who in Series 4, well I might just have the answer.
In Cardiff at the Doctor Who exhibition the Judoon costume and stand have been replaced with a sign stating that they were taken awaay for filming in Series 4 of Doctor Who, so will the intergalactic police be back for more action or is this a simple mistake?

Bannakaffalatta was aboard the starship Titanic. And after having an accident which was life threatining he had to become part cyborg, but he was ashamed of it. He sacrificed himself to save the ship and Earth below in Voyage of the Damned (2007)

They show the humans their gift, "Axonite", and it seems innocent, until it turns out Axons, Axonite, and Axos are the same entity and the Doctor is suspicious, but with the Master being involved, can the Doctor, UNIT and Jo Grant stop the Axons from draining all the energy from Earth, and keep time and space safe?

Argolin fact file

The Argolin, who appeared in the Fourth Doctor story The leisure hive (1980) by David Fisher, are the inhabitants of Argolis. In 2250, the Argolin, led by Theron, fought and lost a 20-minute nuclear war with the Foamasi. As a result of this war, the Argolin became sterile. They were also quite long-lived, but when they neared the end of their life they aged and declined very rapidly. The Argolin who survived the war put aside their race's traditional warlike ways and remade Argolis as "the first of the leisure planets", catering to tourists from many worlds. They built a "Leisure Hive" dedicated to relaxation and cross-cultural understanding; due to radioactive fallout from the war, the Argolin planned to live in the Hive for at least three centuries. Argolis continued to struggle financially, and by 2290 faced possible bankruptcy. A rogue faction of Foamasi known as the West Lodge attempted to purchase the entire planet to use as a criminal base, sabotaging recreation facilities in order to encourage the Argolin to sell. The criminal nature of the offer was exposed by a Foamasi agent, aided by the Fourth Doctor and Romana.

Since the Argolin were sterile, they attempted to renew their race using cloning and tachyonics, but only one of the clones, Pangol, survived to adulthood. Pangol was mentally unstable and obsessed with the Argolin's former warrior culture. He attempted to create an army of tachyonic duplicates of himself, but was unsuccessful and was eventually restored to infancy through the same tachyonic technology that had created him.

In appearance, Argolin are humanoids with yellowish skin. Their heads are covered with what appears to be elaborately coiffed hair, but may not be (since when Pangol is reduced to infancy he retains the distinctive Argolin hairstyle). Their heads are capped with small domes covered in beads, which fall off when the Argolin become sick or die.

Rutan Host Fact file




The Rutans, have long been at war with the Sontaran Empire, and this war dominates both cultures to the exclusion of all else. The Rutans only appeared on television in the serial Horror of Fang Rock , in which a single Rutan is encountered, though they are mentioned in some serials featuring the Sontarans.
In their natural forms, Rutans resemble large green Jellyfish, glowing blobs of biomatter with long ropey tentacles. They are amphibious and can cling to sheer vertical surfaces, with considerable mobility out of the water despite their shape. Rutans can also generate lethal electrical shocks which they use to kill, and seem to be able to absorb electricity directly from any source for there own energy instead of eating, sleeping, drinking etc. They reproduce by splitting them selves into two seperate organisms without having any loss in size, mass, volume etc. Rutans can speak, although the exact mechanism by which this works is unknown as they seem to lack mouths. The Rutan observed in Horror of Fang Rock spoke with a harsh, tinny male voice.

The title "Rutan Host" implies a group intelligence of some kind, and indeed Rutans never refer to themselves as individuals, therefore use first person plurals like "we", "us" and "our(s)". Rutans are able to operate independently (and like the Sontarans, often dispatch scout units consisting of a single soldier), but they do not see individuals as important and all individual desires are counted less important by the general desire to win the war with the "Sontaran rabble".

Rutans have also developed advanced shape-shifting technology, allowing them to appear in any form they wish. They often use this technology to adapt to alien environments and infiltrate alien cultures; Rutans are consummate spies. A Rutan usually kills specific individuals and then impersonate them, this tactic is to prevent discovery and to examine the individual more closely for a more accurate clone.

Timeline

Horror of Fang Rock(1977): The cursed island of Fang Rock off the south coast of England is a place of rumour and tales of beasts from the sea. Three lighthouse men at the turn of the century face their fears when something comes in from the sea which brings death to all it touches.

The newly designed Sontarans with the Tenth Doctor, Marth and Donna.

The Sontarans made their first appearance in 1973 in the serial The Time Warrior by Robert Holmes. There, it was explained that they are a race that reproduces by means of cloning . They live in a militaristic society obsessed by war. Sontarans are humanoid, with a squat build and distinctive dome-shaped head. They come from a high-gravity world named Sontar in the "southern spiral arm of the galaxy", and are far stronger than humans. They recharge their energy through a "probic vent" at the back of the neck rather than by eating food; they also use this vent in their reproduction process. The Sontarans have been at war with the Rutan Host for thousands of years. In the episode The Invasion of Time, the Sontarans successfully invaded Gallifrey , but were driven out again after less than a day.

Although physically formidable, the Sontarans' weak spot is the probic vent at the back of their neck; they have been killed by targeting that location with a knife and an arrow. They are also vulnerable to "coronic acid".

At some point, the Sontarans encountered the Rutan Host. The war between the Sontarans and the Rutans continued for several millennia, with both sides remaining fairly evenly matched and neither side interested in negotiating for peace. It was still ongoing at the time of The Sonataran Experiment, which takes place at least 10,000 years beyond the 30th century. The episode Horror of fang rock, set during the early 20th century, hinted the Sontarans had gained the upper hand, but this proved merely a temporary setback for the Rutan Host.

Timeline


The Time Warrior(1973-1974): A Sontaran named Linx, trapped in the Middle Ages, uses crude time travel technology to kidnap scientists from the 20th Century to help repair his spacecraft.


The Sontaran experiment(1975): On a future Earth recovering from devastating Solar Flares, the Fourth Doctor,Harry Sullivan and Sarah Jane Smith discover Styre, a Sontaran warrior, conducting experiments on astronauts he has captured during their investigation of the rejuvenated Earth.

The Invasion of Time(1978):The Doctor returns to Gallifrey, having claimed the Presidency. His behaviour is unusual and has Leela thrown in jail. However, the Doctor is doing this to prevent a Sontaran instigated disaster.

The Two Doctors(1985):The Second Doctor and Jamie are on a mission for the Time Lords that goes horribly wrong, and Jamie sees the Doctor being tortured to death. However, if the Doctor died in his second incarnation, what does that mean for the Sixth Doctor and Peri?

SO MUCH NEWS!!!!!!





The picture above was made by me

Some spoilers for series 4 of Doctor Who have been released about Donna, Rose, Martha, Captain Jack,Sarah Jane and the Doctor. Also some of the spoielrs contain info on some monsters and on gerogia Moffetts role as the Doctors' daughter These Spoilers were in an article in the Sun, so living up to the Suns reputation these might not be true.

Spolier 1 Highlight to read all the spoilers

Doctor Who series four leaves helpless assistant Donna racing round the stratosphere (atmosphere) alone when the Timelord goes missing.Donna played by Catherine Tate fears for the Doctor’s life when he mysteriously disappears and draws support from an unlikely source.
Former assistants Rose Tyler, Martha Jones, Sarah Jane Smith and Captain Jack all rush to her aid. The fearless foursome then scour the universe in search of the Doctor battling a whole host of alien life-force.

Spoiler 2

"a mysterious hooded being and dangerous flying beasts".

Spoiler 3

And there’s a shock in store when actress Georgia Moffett whose real-life dad is former Doctor Who Peter Davison claims to be the Timelord’s daughter.

Spoiler 3 is known about by most people and spolier 2 seems to be from episodes 8 and 9 (Moffat 2-parter) and spoiler 1 from the Doctor-lite episode


Anyway, now for some facts/specualtions

Facts

* There will be a character called "Lux" who helps the Doctor on an expedition to uncover the secrets of an abadoned library.

*
Some new cast for the Sontaran 2 parter - Eleanor Matsuura (Jo), Ryan Sampson (Luke Rattigan), Rupert Holiday Evans (Colonel Mace), Bridget Hodson (Captain Price), Clive Standen (Harris), Wesley Theobald (Private Steve Gray)

Specualtions/Rumours

*The actor playing Colonel Mace (Sontaran 2-parter) is telling people that he is the "new Brigadier"

*The Mastetr will be back and played by John Simm but this is probably in a flashback.

*Noel Clarke was asked if he will return a Mickey , the answer he gave suggested he might come back.

*DNA is a key role in Series 4

*The fob watch will return
*The Doctor will have to choose which companion to have and which companion will die, this might be Donna seeing that she will only be in series 4 of Doctor Who.

*Rose will be in a relationship with someone (NOT MICKEY!!!!)

*David Tennant might do season 5

Wow that was a big post!!!!

Martha Jones UNIT I.D.


As far as we know Martha Jones will be working with UNIT in series 4 of Doctor Who and in Torhcwood for 3 episodes, this was confirmed on her myspace page where she said:
"I just receive an email, guess who it is from"

First of all everyone thought that she was talking about Torchwood but after she tried to hide her UNIT i.d. at a photoshoot the latter is the likely sender of the email.

I have made her UNIT i.d. card which i think would look like the above picture.
Please comment.

Torchwood episode 2-Adam-New clip



A new clip containing the Boeshane Peninsula which is Captain Jacks home town in the 51st century can be watched here

Doctor Who start date?

Well we can't be certain on a definete start date but

Series one started on 26th March 2005 which was Easter saturday

Series 2 started on 15th April 2006 which was Easter saturday

Series 3 started 31st March 2007 and not the 7th April 2007 (Easter Saturday)so as not to clash with any other programmes(even though they were still delayed a week with Eurovision).

So seeing as in series 4 they seem to be filming way ahead of themselves then series 4 will probably air on 22nd March 2008(Easter saturday).

Some people say that Doctor Who will start when Torchwood finishes but if Captain Jack is going to come back then i doubt it will be in the first three episodes of Doctor Who, but if series 4 starts on Easter saturday =and if Torchwood runs smoothly Torchwood will probably finish within the first few episodes of Doctor Who, so hopefully at some point in time we will have Torchwood and Doctor Who to look forward to in the same week!!

Freema talks in the new DWM





Freema Agyeman has revealed that facing classic Doctor Who villains the Sontarans was a a 'high' point in her career.

"Russell (T Davies) sent me a text saying, 'It'll be the first time you've towered over a baddie' Ha ha!," Freema revealed in an exclusive interview in the latest issue of Doctor Who Magazine. "And I did. I felt quite tall."

"When I first saw the guys in prosthetics I couldn't stop giggling - found them really cute and quite funny! Er, that's probably not the desired reaction, is it?" she added.

Also in this month's issue: writer Stephen Greenhorn talks about his forthcoming Series Four episode; director Graham Harper braves questions from Out of the TARDIS Tin; there's werewolves and weirdness in the full colour comic strip, Part 2 of Universal Monsters.

Russell T Davies pays tribute to a very special lady in Production Notes; Neil Harris stresses the importance of location, location, location in You Are Not Alone; it's the last ever edition of the Matrix Data Bank; plus all the latest Series Four news, previews and reviews.

DWM 392 is available from Thursday 7 February 2008 priced £3.99.

There is some more news about one of the major characters in the series:(highlight to read)
Reset, Episode 6, will see the death of Owen Harper, and the return of Martha Jones, but not all is what it seems as he will be transformed into a Weevil hybrid... He becomes the "Weevil King" and appears throughout episodes six, seven and eight. Is this the end for 'human' Owen?...


David Tennant has confirmed that he will be returning to Doctor Who to film the 2009 specials on 10th January 2009. Speaking at the Radio Times Cover Party, he revealed that they are still hard at work on Series Four, and are should finish at the end of April. After having a break, David will begin his rehearsals for Hamlet , and will star in the Shakespeare play from July right up until 9th January next year.He'll have to be back in Cardiff the very next day to start filming for the three special episodes of Doctor Who which have been confirmed for at some point throughout 2009."And after that I really don't know," David said. "Nothing has been decided... honestly!"So will he quit after 2009....who knows!

Time Lords Daughter

The Daily Star reported that Georgis Moffat will be playing the dotors daughter, they said this:

DOCTOR Who gets a massive shock when discovers he has a daughter. The Time Lord is stunned after he lands back on Earth and meets a girl who claims he is her dad.

But all is not what it seems and the Doc eventually finds out his "daughter" has been created by aliens. They hatched a sinister plot to nick his DNA without him knowing. And, using his genes, they made the young woman themselves.

In a clever bit of casting, Georgia Moffett, 23, will play the Time Lord's girl. She just happens to be the real life daughter of former Doctor Who Peter Davison, 56. A source said "It's an amazing signing."

Show bosses are lining up some sensational storylines for the BBC sci fi show - back this spring. They include a showdown with the Daleks and their evil creator Davros.

Companions in the finale!!!












The picture above was made by me
As far as we know Captain Jack, Sarah Jane, Rose Tyler, Donna Noble and Martha Jones will appear in the finale but what about Astrid and K-9, a few months a go, someone on set said"She is back and on very good authority ", this could be implied to either Rose or Astrid, anyway now to k-9 will the robotic dog appear? This question is asked often and the answer will probably be no(even though i hope he does appear), since the new show k-9 is starring in gives him a different look and seeing that he is shutting down a black hole it seems doubtful that he will appear in series 4 of Doctor Who.
