New Doctor Who Adventure Game: TARDIS

Yes - beat Combom at long last...

The BBC Website has confirmed Adventure Game #3 as TARDIS (featuring the Doctor's TARDIS drawing room) and availiable to play 27 August! Are you excited? Please PLEASE comment below. ;)

It will feature monsters, terrifying new dangers for the Doctor and Amy and offers an amazing insight into the world's most famous blue box. It's also been announced that the game will give players the opportunity to pilot the Doctor's iconic time machine.

Lead Writer and Executive Producer, Steven Moffat, confirmed, 'Since 1963, kids have wondered what it would be like to control the TARDIS. Now we're handing complete control of the most powerful ship in all of space and time to a generation of children. Everybody duck!' He also told us, 'TARDIS is a brilliant, brilliant adventure. It's funny, touching, terrifying, amazing - everything a Doctor Who episode should be.'

The official press release promised, 'the game allows players to explore the Doctor's wondrous drawing room, featuring treasures and artefacts from his many adventures - a location specially created for the game, which will go on to form part of the Doctor Who canon'.

Matt Smith and Karen Gillan return as the Doctor and Amy and once again the game is executive produced by Steven Moffat, Piers Wenger, Beth Willis and Anwen Aspden (BBC Wales Interactive), alongside Charles Cecil. Music is by Murray Gold and TARDIS is written by James Moran whose previous credits include Torchwood, Spooks and the Tenth Doctor story, The Fires of Pompeii.

It's the third Adventure Game and will be available at no extra cost to UK households, simultaneously on PC and Mac from this site. Users outside the UK will be able to purchase and download it on its UK release date, 27 August.

We'll be bringing you updates and interviews as we get closer to TARDIS materialising!

 And so will Doctor Whoniverse! Finally, we get to pilot the TARDIS -  something that I've been looking forward to since the start of these Games...stay tuned!

The Wibbly-Wobbly Timey-Wimey Banana

This is the Wibbly-Wobbly Timey-Wimey Banana - it's being posted in quite a few cBoxes at the moment, and please correct me if I'm wrong (it would make for a fair few comments, I've been looking for those) but I think that I am the first blog to cover it! (Which just shows how desperate for news I am at the moment...just how do you do it, Combom?)
It's somebody drawing a TARDIS on a banana. I don't really think that you need any more of an explanation. No, I don't know what wierdo with too much time on his hands drew this, neither do I care - here it is.

Building A 2010 TARDIS Playset from the Pieces of the 2005 Version

Fed up of having to buy another £40 playset every time the producers feel like a change? Don’t have enough room in your house for two? Or maybe you simply don’t like Character’s new design? Fear not - simply use the old playset to create this masterpiece. It’s not accurate, but neither is the official version.



These instructions assume you already know roughly how to construct the Tennant era model. Look at the pictures for assistance.

1. Build the frame - this will act as the lower level.
2. Add one second-level piece. This is the floor. Turn the (green) label upside-down to show the white side.
3. Build up the three top-level pieces - these should have no labels on apart from the lift-up maintenance panels white - these could have the labels off, it is a matter of which you prefer. Make sure that the indent into the second-level piece has a green maintenance panel inside it.
4. Install the console, making sure that there are at least two holes (at the top) facing the second-level piece.
5. Install the grey ‘arms’ underneath the two ‘sticks’ sticking out of the lower level in front of the second-level. Add the door on the ramp in between these, with the ramp fitting neatly underneath the white piece.
6. Build the two ‘semi-transparent non-linear living buttresses’ (spindly orange things to you and me) with pegs either side of the door and attach the vortex/wall pieces appropriately.
7. Have a search for anything you can find to enhance this! Look in the loft. Add the hammers hanging down from the top level as a swing. Use the barriers and car seats included in the set. A hatstand will be good.Invent!

I may soon try the mid-seventies model. Stay tuned!

Doctor Whoniverse Comics

The eleven Doctors are in the TARDISes. All the readings are the same, and the cloister bell is tolling.
Materialising on a strange planet, they find some old freinds - and old enemies...

Part One of The Eleven Doctors is now availiable! We really hope that you'll enjoy it - despite it being quite short - and appreciate the process in Photoshop. Each frame was compiled then converted into comic seperately.

Doctor Who Series Five Unanswered Questions

1. What exactly is so special about 26062010?
2.Who did that mysterious voice in the TARDIS belong to? [By the way, I automatically hate anybody who even mutters the word Omega in relation to this!]
3. Rory is an Auton, now presumably the Nestenes have scarpered, so why does Rory not collapse, an ordinary dummy?
4. Silence hasn't fallen yet!

Also, not really an unanswered question, but the TARDIS now comprises of a 907-year-old Time Lord, a 2000ish-year-old Auton and a 2000ish-year-old human!
And I assume that Rory did change his name to Pond? (There, I knew they couldn't change a companion's name mid-travels!)
Lastly, now the Cracks have closed, as Amy has got her parents back I'm assuming that the ducks and CyberKing are back. What? This new plot-sticking plaster has been undone?!

Some of these may hopefully be explained some point (probably the finale) next year, or some other point. Please feel free to leave comments in the Comment Form!

It's Doctor Who 5.13 The Big Bang Tonight

Ooh, you lucky peoples with BBC One and Internet Access. I don't think I'll have either of these right now (I'm pre-psoting this, wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey) but anyway:

The Doctor is gone, the TARDIS has been destroyed. The only hope for humanity is a small girl who still beleives in stars...

DWM has confirmed that the young Amelia reappears, and it looks like she finds herself in a museum...what's going on? And what does this have in common with the Cracks throughout time and space..?

The last scenes of The Eleventh Hour, with adult Amelia Pond beginning her travels in the TARDIS occur 'roundabout now. This is also the hour at which the Doctor picks up Rory and discusses the wedding with Amy. Although techinically that never happened!

Doctor Who "The Pandorica Opens"

I photoshopped a few screengrabs of Vincent's last painting, rotated them and cloned small areas to make a close copy:

And decided to post it here.

Please comment!
