Torchwood Trailers (Doctor Who Spinoff)
Sunday, October 8, 2006
Update: Warren Ellis, on his Bad Signal mailing list, agrees that the trailers left something to be desired: “… although TORCHWOOD’s trailer was horrible, I put that down to BBC3 not knowing how to make a decent trailer.”
Nothing earth-shattering in these clips, but I’m still excited to see what Torchwood has to offer.
Torchwood - the new Doctor Who spinoff starts in October. Right?

Apparently, DigitalSpy thinks the air date is 10/22/06. Let’s hope so!
Dalek ID Tags in seasons 27 and 28 of Doctor Who (the ‘new’ series)
Sunday, July 9, 2006
EDIT: The Cult of Skaro Daleks are named Sec, Thay, Caan and Jast on screen. In print, they are named Sec, Thay, Caan and Rabe. Sorry for the confusion. Relevant Wikipedia reference here.
I went through and documented the id tags of the various Daleks in the Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant episodes. [...]
Doctor Who: Doomsday
Saturday, July 8, 2006
The finale of the second season of the new series was excellent.
At first I didn’t like the humor of the Cult of Skaro Daleks, but I’m with it now. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to the new-this-season Cybermen battle cry of “DELETE”, though.
Here are some thoughts that are nagging me (beware spoilers):
The Cybermen [...]
SketchUp is Free!
Thursday, April 27, 2006
YES!
Google just announced that they are releasing a limited version of SketchUp for free! Meanwhile, you can visit the 3D Warehouse to find everyone else’s (geographically-tagged) creations.
SketchUp is really easy to use. I suggest watching a few of the videos to get started and then dive right in. I made a Sonic Screwdriver 3D model [...]
SketchUp (now a Google company)
Thursday, March 16, 2006
I played with Google’s new property, SketchUp, tonight. After watching a couple of the videos, it’s easy to use. I hope they release a free version. [More on SketchUp over at Make.]
Anyway, I grabbed an image of the Doctor Who Sonic Screwdriver (the Eccleston version) from Henriks, imported it as a texture and [...]
Bruce Schneier is reading “How to Survive a Robot Uprising”
Tuesday, January 24, 2006
At least two of my coworkers own this book already. It’s a funny look at the techniques used in hundreds of scifi movies. Good stuff. That’s not why I’m posting about it, though. I skimmed Bruce’s comment section and found a reference to the Daleks in Doctor Who. No context, [...]

Just some screen captures from Doctor Who: Christmas Invasion. My blood is PUMPING.
Doctor Who: Christmas Invasion
Monday, December 26, 2005
As a bridge between Season 1 and Season 2 of the new Doctor Who series(seasons 28 and 29 in the big picture), the BBC made a Christmas Special. It’s outstanding. On top of a great episode, they threw in scenes from the Season 2(29). Cybermen, Sarah Jane Smith, K-frickin-9. Merry Christmas!!!

Too much information…
Saturday, June 4, 2005
MASSIVE SPOILER WARNING.
I guess I shouldn’t be mad. I was looking for answers and found a tell-all description of the season finale of Doctor Who.
What’s insane is that it all but confirms one of the craziest ideas on this page - about Davros!
Update: More spoilers/speculation. adric_ on IRC pointed me there.
And, now, someone [...]

OK, I don’t KNOW that it’s an ARG, but it sure seems like one.
Bad Wolf speculation.
More Bad Wolf speculation.
Groc chimes in.
TVTome info.
Doctor Who Appreciation Society mentions Bad Wolf.

Sonic Screwdriver Replicas
Friday, June 3, 2005
More links regarding the new Sonic Screwdriver prop and replicas.
I’ve added more images to the collection of 9th Doctor(Christopher Eccleston) Sonic Screwdriver photos page.
The Replica Prop Forum(RPF) has a thread about the prop.
Henriks is working on a replica(6, actually).
And Henriks has photos of a replica made by Paul Doe.
