So, Hell Bent. If you haven’t seen it, click away now. This review of the Steven Moffat Twelfth Doctor story is littered with spoilers. What the Hell! If you’re just passing, I liked this (in the main) though wish it had tried a bit less and achieved a lot more. Not to say it didn’t achieve a…

Now Hell Bent has been shown, Stuart Manning has updated his poster. The change involves a spoiler…
Face the Raven reviewed
Sarah Dollard’s Doctor Who story, Face the Raven, can be summarised simply. Ashildr returns, tricks the Doctor into wearing a teleport bracelet and in so-doing Clara takes one risk too many. Clara ends up dead and the Doctor is teleported away as Ashildr wonders just what she has done. Of course a little bit more happened than that (and…
Could Clara be the new companion?
We all know Jenna Coleman is leaving Doctor Who, but what if Clara is staying? No I haven’t gone mad (well no more than normal); bear with me…
Could o’Donnell be the next companion?
Since the departure of Jenna Coleman from the role of Clara has been confirmed, I’ve been wondering who might replace her. My current theory is o’Donnell from Under the Lake as played by Morven Christie. I have my reasons…
The Witch’s Familiar reviewed
My overall view of this episode is it was quite brilliant in many places, though I do worry it was too focussed on hard-core fans and will have alienated more casual viewers. With the unfortunate timing of the England-Wales Rugby World Cup game, Saturday’s viewing figures were as bad as they have been since the…
Is Sue Chesterton replacing Clara?
Some time ago I mentioned the possibility of Sue Chesterton joining the TARDIS and with the news Jenna Coleman is giving up the part of Clara (to become Queen Victoria and found Torchwood) is now the time for Sue to join? Jenna Coleman broke the news (much-anticipated) on BBC Radio 1’s Nick Grimshaw programme —…
The ‘Clara is leaving’ rumour
Like clockwork, with three days to go until series 9, we have the Clara is leaving rumour. This time is has more – Jenna Coleman has the role of Queen Victoria in a major new series (eg see this Telegraph article).
Gratuitous Blue Waitress Outfit pictures of Clara
In a follow-up to last years Gratuitous Red Dress pictures of Clara we have Wales News Service to thank for flooding the Whovian interweb with pictures of Jenna Coleman dressed as a waitress in a (TARDIS) blue outfit. Various news outlets have selected several pictures of Jenna in costume outside a diner. Other pictures give us a sight…
Gratuitous Red Dress pictures of Clara
And the BBC’s Doctor Who publicity machine continues its work of making sure we don’t forget about the filming of the new series. Yesterday saw a set of photos produced that show various cast members on the set of the Robin Hood story. Sadly everyone focussed on Jenna Coleman in a tight red dress and that is…
The Time Machine reviewed
After slight delays due to the problems with AudioGO (and our best wishes to those caught up in the collapse of the company) The Time Machine by Matt Fitton adds the Eleventh Doctor to the Destiny of the Doctor range. This story is narrated by Jenna Coleman though here she plays Alice Watson rather than Clara. Michael Cochrane plays…
The one with (almost) a new companion – The Snowmen reviewed
Another Christmas and this time (2012) the BBC brought us Steven Moffat’s The Snowmen. Billed as the story that would give the Doctor a new companion in the form of Jenna-Louise Coleman’s Clara and a new TARDIS interior, there was a certain weight of expectation on this episode, especially as we had already met Oswin in…
