SFX has just posted the first 3 episode details from the new Doctor Who series for 2010.

Episode 1: "The Eleventh Hour" (by Steven Moffat) to be shown 3rd April 2010

Episode 2: "The Beast Below" (by Steven Moffat)

Episode 3: "Victory of the Daleks" (by Mark Gatiss)


Personally, I think Gatiss + Daleks = great episode.

Who says it's only children who want to be The Doctor :(

Doctor Who - The Interactive Adventure . Apparently forming part of the series and free on PC/Mac.

Decided I wasn't going to get time to watch this at home so I bunged it onto the walkman and watched it at work instead.

Really enjoyed it but surprisingly I struggled to tune into the young Amelia's accent... being Scottish and all I shouldn't need to tune in, must have been the headphones.

Pretty much looked like a sea devil gun on that trailer after the Confidential show, didn't it?

I personally loved it, aside from the music and the first 5-10 minutes as has already been said. Smith was a much better Doctor than I was imagining he would be.

Despite being ginger, Scottish and having a weird 'thousand-yard stare' going on, the companion is a little cutie. It's nice to see they picked someone with a great set of pins, and emphasised this with the mini-shirt :)

Agree with Machie though, there is no need for so many 'celebrities' for cameos. Already dreading watching the James Corden one, as I can't stand that fat pillock... oh well... Daleks in a fortnight!

Alvin is a better actor than Matt Smith. He did slightly less running around than in an average Doctor Who episode too.

But it got 27%! It's Jason Lees worst movie ever. :¬(

Hangon you're just playing with me again aren't you? Just like you said you were interested in the JooJoo when it's nothing more than a browser and only sold 70 units on it's first day.

I watched Alvin and the Chipmunks 2 last night. It was better than Dr. Who.

Maybe if you watch it a second time Garin, you might enjoy it more. Although I hope you'll at least watch the next couple of episodes.

There's gonna be a dalek episode, you love daleks. I'm hoping the seadevils will return. I enjoyed the Pewtree serial.

What a ridiculous idea.
