There’s been a round of rumours (summarised neatly by DoctorWhoTV: RUMOUR: SERIES 11 TO HAVE FEWER BUT LONGER EPS, NEW TARDIS & SONIC, and the title rather gives it away. Now, to a large extent this is pure clickbait, but not quite, and not as much as the tedious horde of what do we know about the thirteenth…
If you randomly search for the phrase Travel by TARDIS, you get a lot of interesting art-work. One that caught my eye (on twitter) was this one by Joshua Graham of The Art Eye. I like the retro feel, and the phrases such as still be home in time for tea! There’s also a great Victorian Girl poster…
One of the tropes of Doctor Who is the unreliability of the TARIDS, or the Doctor’s inability to steer accurately (take your pick). In fact the TARDIS is far more accurate than most people realise, as explained on Space.Com: How Doctor Who’s TARDIS Measures Up with Real Instruments of Space & Time. Next time the Doctor’s a few years…
In case you haven’t seen (and assuming social media is your thing), there is now a TARDIS emoji on Twitter. Details are on the photo or carry on reading…
Of many new titles coming out to grab the attention (and wallets) of Doctor Who fans in the next few months, I’m most attracted to T is for TARDIS by Adam Howling. It’s a Puffin book aimed at teaching young children their alphabet. I assume Gallifreyans have something more complicated written in their own script when they are…

I shared some thoughts about Big Finish producing a spin-off based around Trap Street; now we’ve had Hell Bent we even see the next series emerging from the end - yes it’s Snacks and Gas a tale of two time-travelling adventurers in their diner shaped TARDIS!
If you follow my musings, you’ll know I am a big fan of any Narnia Doctor Who connections. Well done, then, the Northants Herald & Post for their TARDIS / Narnia piece on a fascinating antique shop. The shop is The Old Bakehouse Antiques and the article (compete with TARDIS) is: Welcome to Northampton’s own Narnia - a hidden Tardis-like…
Lego TARDISes are everywhere (well it seems that way some times) and the latest is being built in Birmingham. Reported in the Birmingham Mail under Life-size LEGO Doctor Who Tardis to be built at BRICK 2015 at NEC this is a record attempt at building a TARDIS from real Lego - 100,000 bricks to be precise. [+] Message…
The Radio Times has kindly shown us how each Doctor’s TARDIS looks in Lego. The piece is: Every Doctor’s Tardis… in Lego. Hands up who wants this now! >>> Message Ends <<<
The Doctor Who FaceBook page has this to say along with the accompanying photo - Landing Soon. Nothing more to add, I just hope Santa checks my Christmas list carefully! !!! Message Ends !!!
If you visit often, you will know I am a big fan of Stuart Manning’s posters for Doctor Who and other things he has done. I was wandering around his FaceBook page (Design by Stuart Manning) and found this great poster explaining how TARDIS translation works. The full size version is on his page and the…
