    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

    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.

    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

  • Sociopathetic Abscess Or Yawning Chasm? the Absent Postcolonial Transition In

    Sociopathetic Abscess Or Yawning Chasm? the Absent Postcolonial Transition In

    Sociopathetic abscess or yawning chasm? The absent postcolonial transition in Doctor Who Lindy A Orthia The Australian National University, Canberra, Australia Abstract This paper explores discourses of colonialism, cosmopolitanism and postcolonialism in the long-running television series, Doctor Who. Doctor Who has frequently explored past colonial scenarios and has depicted cosmopolitan futures as multiracial and queer- positive, constructing a teleological model of human history. Yet postcolonial transition stages between the overthrow of colonialism and the instatement of cosmopolitan polities have received little attention within the program. This apparent ‘yawning chasm’ — this inability to acknowledge the material realities of an inequitable postcolonial world shaped by exploitative trade practices, diasporic trauma and racist discrimination — is whitewashed by the representation of past, present and future humanity as unchangingly diverse; literally fixed in happy demographic variety. Harmonious cosmopolitanism is thus presented as a non-negotiable fact of human inevitability, casting instances of racist oppression as unnatural blips. Under this construction, the postcolonial transition needs no explication, because to throw off colonialism’s chains is merely to revert to a more natural state of humanness, that is, cosmopolitanism. Only a few Doctor Who stories break with this model to deal with the ‘sociopathetic abscess’ that is real life postcolonial modernity. Key Words Doctor Who, cosmopolitanism, colonialism, postcolonialism, race, teleology, science fiction This is the submitted version of a paper that has been published with minor changes in The Journal of Commonwealth Literature, 45(2): 207-225. 1 1. Introduction Zargo: In any society there is bound to be a division. The rulers and the ruled.
  • SFGH September 2005 – Doctor Who: Was Gibt Es Neues

    SFGH September 2005 – Doctor Who: Was Gibt Es Neues

    ...und zum dritten – Doctor Who 2007 – ohne Rose nix los? Doctor Nr. 10 findet neue weibliche Begleitung Am Rande sei bemerkt, daß die Folge, die wir letztes Mal angesehen haben, den Hugo Award in der Kategorie Drama - Short Form gewonnen hat. Am Ende der Staffel 2006 verließ Rose Tyler in einem tränenreichen Finale den 10. Doctor, um in einer Parallelwelt mit Original-Mutter, Parallel-Vater und verändertem Mickey glücklich bis an ihr seliges Ende zu leben. Damit ist bis auf David Tennant in der Titelrolle das gesamte Stammpersonal verschwunden. Doch die nächste Weihnachtsfolge kommt bestimmt. Nach einer Einmal-Begleiterin trifft der Doctor in der ersten Folge 2007 eine angehende Ärztin – Martha Jones – die ihn während der gesamten Staffel begleitet. In den letzten drei Folgen stößt auch noch Captain Jack Harkness (John Barrowman) dazu, bekannt aus Staffel 2005 und der Spin-off-Serie Torchwood. Die Folgen im einzelnen Weihnachts-Sonderfolge 2006 ‚The Runaway Bride’. Während die Braut Donna Noble in der Kirche auf den Altar zuschreitet, verschwindet sie plötzlich und taucht in der TARDIS auf. Obwohl der Doctor versucht, sie zurückzubringen, reagiert sie recht lange feindselig auf ihren vermeintlichen Entführer. Diesmal stecken sehr irdische Übeltäter aus der frühesten Erdvergangenheit hinter der Story, deren Höhepunkte eine Verfolgungsjagd zwischen Taxi und TARDIS auf der Autobahn und eine trockengelegte Themse sind. Nur mit Weihnachten hat die Story nichts zu tun. Am Schluß rät Donna dem Doctor, sich eine Begleitung zu suchen, da sie glaubt, er braucht sie. Donna Noble wird gespielt von Catherine Tate, wohl derzeit die berühmteste britische Komikerin. Sie wird nicht die letzte Top-Berühmtheit sein, die in dieser Staffel auftritt.
