Tenth doctor the musical

This has to be the unltimate fan vid. The tenth doctors adventures put to popular music. Have to give you a NSFW warning though because the "f word" Is used in one of the songs for a few seconds..still enough to where a boss would be annoyed and a child could learn a new word you don't want them to...



Tenth Doctor: The Musical

BBC ticks of who fans..but are they just overreacting?

BBC News - Doctor Who fans angered by trailer for Over the Rainbow

Before you start the flame comments over the title allow me to explain. I am a who fan myself and have seen the episode and the clip in question and I have to say it didn't anger me. It makes me wonder if it is a matter of culture is the problem here. In America we are used to seeing ads over points in our shows. This makes itself perfectly clear if you watch the discovery channel or another place where animated graphics show up quite often during shows. Is it possible that since this doesn't happen as often in the UK that its a matter of context? I'm not defending the BBC here either..its clear they made a slightly goofy and badly timed mistake with the placement of the ad but to hear fans talk you would think it took up the entire screen instead of a small chunk of it. I'll provide the clipl below however if you dont want a spoiler for episode 4 then turn your sound off and see the vid only and the message will still be clear as to what everyone was upset about, but to get as angry enough about it that instead of the usual reviews of the episode you see on places like twitter all you see is anger? I think it went a bit to far...




BBC Ruin Doctor Who

Hawking says if aliens say hi..stay quiet..

This is a lesson that all doctor who fans already know..when they show up all they will want to do is steal our resources and then leave..makes since really when you think about it.

As a person that suffers from seizures myself the discovery of this website meant more to me than most would ever think it would. It not only gives you all the info you need but much more. As the site says this is important..talk about it.

Kevin Rose to Replace Jay Adelson as Digg CEO

This makes perfect sense to me as Kevin Rose is the first person i think of when i think of Digg he will have the interests of the company in mind..I just wonder how he will still do podcasts or if it will be affected at all..
