Says Showrunner Steven Moffat rapwsRiiis blend into its surroundings but was stuck as a 1950s-era British police call box. Five episodes in, the Doctor faced the Daleks, who would become his most long-standing foes, extraterres­ trials resembling big metal pepper pots with one plunger-like hand and a goal that doubled as their favorite word: "Exterminate!" When Hartnell's declining health forced him off the series, Who's writers introduced their concept of "regener­ ation," which allowed the Doctor, a member of a human-looking alien race called the Time Lords, to trans­ form into a different being. So in 1966, Hartnell's Doctor collapsed and woke up a newer, younger man, portrayed by mop-topped Patrick Troughton. "I remember realizing that somebody else was playing the Doctor and complaining to my dad that that wasn't the Doctor," recalls current executive producer Steven Moffat, who'd been watching the series since it began—when he was just 2 years old. "It was seeing that show that made me want to know what went on behind the scenes."

Once it was a mining facility. Then later its corridors rang with screams generated by grotesque military experiments. However when the Doctor and Mel arrive on a hostile alien world after detecting a Terror of the Sontarans signal, the base they find themselves in is almost deserted. But not for long. Soon the Doctor's old enemies, the Sontarans, have landed, and are searching for the remnants of their previous research team. Before long they uncover evidence of strange occurrences on the planet. Of madness and death. They are warriors bred for war, strong of spirit and unafraid of death. To fear the Terror of the Sontarans is an act of betrayal. Nothing holds terror for the Sontarans.

  • Blue Surge by Rebecca Gilman Directed by Ché Walker
    Press Information The Finborough Theatre is now FULLY AIR CONDITIONED Summer Season June to August 2011 Mark Cartwright in association with Neil McPherson for the Finborough Theatre presents The UK Premiere Blue Surge by Rebecca Gilman Directed by Ché Walker. Cast includes: James Hillier. The UK premiere of Rebecca Gilman's acclaimed play Blue Surge opens at the multi-award-winning Finborough Theatre on Tuesday, 2 August 2011 (Press Night: Thursday, 4 August 2011 at 7.30pm) for a limited four-week season. He's a 38 year old cop. She's an 18 year old prostitute. They're in love. What could possibly go wrong? Curt is a small-town cop in Midwest America under pressure to close down the local massage parlor. But after an encounter with one of its occupants, Sandy, his job suddenly becomes anything but clear-cut. As Curt and Sandy embark upon an unlikely relationship, they realize they might just achieve the American Dream. Yet when events begin to get out of control, they find escaping the past is much more difficult than it seems... Set against challenging questions about the class struggle in America today, this moving love story between cops and hookers is a tale of expectations missed and overcome, a play about the narratives we all write for ourselves and how fortune and single moments can change our lives. Playwright Rebecca Gilman plays include The Glory of Living, Spinning into Butter, Boy Gets Girl and The Sweetest Swing in Baseball. She was the first American playwright to win an Evening Standard Award for The Glory of Living (seen in the UK at the Royal Court Theatre), which also won the George Devine Award, was named one of Time magazine's Best Plays of the Decade, and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize.

    Nouse Web Archives TV Review: Doctor Who: ‘Last Christmas’ Page 1 of 3 News Comment MUSE. Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Muse › Film & TV › Features Film Reviews TV Reviews Festivals TV Review: Doctor Who: ‘Last Christmas’ The Doctor meets Santa in what James Humpish thinks is one of the show’s best Christmas specials ever Sunday 28 December 2014 Rating: ★★★★★ This review contains spoilers It’s hard to do a review of Doctor Who’s ‘Last Christmas’ justice in any short space of time. It ended with all of my family asleep in the living room besides myself. I’m not sure if that said more about them or the episode, but I think this time I’m willing to claim the former. Seasonal offerings of Doctor Who always have a fine line to balance – are we to take it as an episode of Doctor Who or are we to take it as television to keep us entertained at Christmas? It doesn’t always gel well and until now, David Tennant’s first episode, ‘The Christmas Invasion’ was the only definitive ‘Doctor Who at Christmas’ I could subscribe to. It now has a partner in ‘Last Christmas’. After the Doctor got the better of the Master/Mistress and devastatingly parted ways with Clara after the best friends lied to each other about how their lives were going, the moment was ruined for me by Santa Claus turning up. Despite the show being about a 2,000-year-old alien who travels in time and space, I felt like the modern-day, Americanised version of Santa Claus appearing as though he was real meant that the show was jumping the shark, which, for what it is, would be quite an effort.
