  • DOCTOR WHO LOGOPOLIS Christopher H. Bidmead Based On
    DOCTOR WHO LOGOPOLIS Christopher H. Bidmead Based on the BBC television serial by Christopher H. Bidmead by arrangement with the British Broadcasting Corporation 1. Events cast shadows before them, but the huger shadows creep over us unseen. When some great circumstance, hovering somewhere in the future, is a catastrophe of incalculable consequence, you may not see the signs in the small happenings that go before. The Doctor did, however - vaguely. While the Doctor paced back and forth in the TARDIS cloister room trying to make some sense of the tangle of troublesome thoughts that had followed him from Traken, in a completely different sector of the Universe, in a place called Earth, one such small foreshadowing was already beginning to unfold. It was a simple thing. A policeman leaned his bicycle against a police box, took a key from the breast pocket of his uniform jacket and unlocked the little telephone door to make a phone call. Police Constable Donald Seagrave was in a jovial mood. The sun was shining, the bicycle was performing perfectly since its overhaul last Saturday afternoon, and now that the water-main flooding in Burney Street was repaired he was on his way home for tea, if that was all right with the Super. It seemed to be a bad line. Seagrave could hear his Superintendent at the far end saying, 'Speak up . Who's that . .?', but there was this whirring noise, and then a sort of chuffing and groaning . The baffled constable looked into the telephone, and then banged it on his helmet to try to improve the connection.

  • Doctor Who: Castrovalva
    Still weak and confused after his fourth regeneration, the Doctor retreats to Castrovalva to recuperate. But Castrovalva is not the haven of peace and tranquility the Doctor and his companions are seeking. Far from being able to rest quietly, the unsuspecting time-travellers are caught up once again in the evil machinations of the Master. Only an act of supreme self-sacrifice will enable them to escape the maniacal lunacy of the renegade Time Lord. Among the many Doctor Who books available are the following recently published titles: Doctor Who and the Leisure Hive Doctor Who and the Visitation Doctor Who – Full Circle Doctor Who – Logopolis Doctor Who and the Sunmakers Doctor Who Crossword Book UK: £1 · 35 *Australia: $3 · 95 Malta: £M1 · 35c *Recommended Price TV tie-in ISBN 0 426 19326 1 This book is dedicated to M.

    DOCTOR WHO SERIES 10 EPISODE 1 "A Star In Her Eye" By Steven Moffat SHOOTING SCRIPT 16/06/2016 (SHOOTING BLOCK 1) DW10: EP 1 "A Star In Her Eye" by Steven Moffat - SHOOTING SCRIPT - 16/06/16 1 INT. THE DOCTOR’S OFFICE - DAY 1 - 16.00 1 The quietest opening we’ve ever had. We’re in a reasonably untidy office. Dust and books. Obviously academic. A university lecturer’s office. We hold this stationary shot - there’s a pleasing symmetry. There’s a door on the left of the screen, and a slightly open one on the right - like the two doors on a weather clock. Through the slightly open door we can see another, smaller room. In between the doors, there’s a desk, facing across the screen. Two empty chairs. The one in front of the closed door, is a simple, wooden chair. Facing it across the desk is an elegant swivel chair. Distantly, a bell chiming. We hear the chatter of distant voices - young people, chatting and laughing. Under that, the drone of traffic. Ordinary and still, for as long as we dare. Then: Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! It’s like the squeaking wheel on a supermarket trolley - and it’s getting closer. Now the closed door opens, revealing: Nardole. Much as we last saw him in The Husbands Of River Song. He steps into the room (always a squeak on his left leg) revealing: In the doorway, Bill. Young, female, cheeky as hell. Nardole stands clear of the door, gestures towards the wooden chair.

  • {PDF EPUB} Doctor Who and the Green Death by Malcolm Hulke Target Practice #3: Doctor Who and the Green Death by Malcolm Hulke
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Doctor Who and the Green Death by Malcolm Hulke Target Practice #3: Doctor Who and the Green Death by Malcolm Hulke. Of the three books that helped make me into a fan, this one is probably my favorite. And why not? It’s a story that dares to talk about pollution and the effects of the coal industry long before climate change became the hot-button political issue it is today. Even with the inherent conservatism of the Pertwee era in mind, (as writers like Paul Cornell and Elizabeth Sandifer have suggested) to see Doctor Who take a firm step for environmentalism this early on is wonderful. And while I wish I could say the situation has improved since the story originally aired on TV in 1973, (and then published in 1975) the truth is, I can’t. Things have only gotten worse in the last 40-odd years, thanks to rising levels of pollution everywhere, and the general warming of the planet leading to significantly stronger hurricanes, melting polar ice caps, and other such disasters. In 2016, the nations of the world signed the Paris Climate Accords, with the goal of keeping the global average temperature from breaching 2 degrees Celsius, but then former president Donald Trump withdrew the United States from the accords, and spent his entire term in office destroying the environment, rather than preserving it. True, Joe Biden returned the US to the agreement after he took office in January, but whatever else he may have planned from a legislative standpoint will run up against a reduced Democratic majority in the House of Representatives, a nominally Democratic Senate, a far right judiciary, and various recalcitrant Republican-controlled states who don’t believe his presidency to be legitimate in the first place, all ready and willing to block even modest reforms, whether through legislation or executive actions.

  • Doctor Who: Frontios
    The TARDIS has drifted far into the future and comes to rest hovering over Frontios, refuge of one group of survivors from Earth who have escaped the disintegration of their home planet. The Doctor is reluctant to land on Frontios, as he does not wish to intervene in a moment of historical crisis – the colonists are still struggling to establish themselves and their continued existence hangs in the balance. But the TARDIS is forced down by what appears to be a meteorite storm, and crash-lands, leaving the Doctor and his companions marooned on the hope-forsaken planet .

    DOCTOR WHO - it's a question and a statement... Compiled by James Deacon [2013] http://aetw.org/omega.html DOCTOR WHO - it's a Question, and a Statement ... Every now and then, I read comments from Whovians about how the programme is called: "Doctor Who" - and how you shouldn't write the title as: "Dr. Who". Also, how the central character is called: "The Doctor", and should not be referred to as: "Doctor Who" (or "Dr. Who" for that matter) But of course, the Truth never quite that simple As the Evidence below will show... * * * * * * * http://aetw.org/omega.html THE PROGRAMME Yes, the programme is titled: "Doctor Who", but from the very beginning – in fact from before the beginning, the title has also been written as: “DR WHO”. From the BBC Archive Original 'treatment' (Proposal notes) for the 1963 series: Source: http://www.bbc.co.uk/archive/doctorwho/6403.shtml?page=1 http://aetw.org/omega.html And as to the central character ... Just as with the programme itself - from before the beginning, the central character has also been referred to as: "DR. WHO". [From the same original proposal document:] http://aetw.org/omega.html In the BBC's own 'Radio Times' TV guide (issue dated 14 November 1963), both the programme and the central character are called: "Dr. Who" On page 7 of the BBC 'Radio Times' TV guide (issue dated 21 November 1963) there is a short feature on the new programme: Again, the programme is titled: "DR.
