Planet Gallifrey: Radio Times Goodness

Radio Times Goodness

From the Radio Times and with a huge, giant thanks to Cameron and The-writer88, prepare to feast your eyes!


Partners in Crime
"There's a sequence in a Cardiff street where you see a large number of creatures, which is breathtaking".

Modern day London, and a brand new diet pill is being tested by the mysterious Adipose industries. Slogan: The fat just walks away! But, soon there are unexplained deaths, strange creatures in the shadows, and the Doctor starts investigating, little knowing that an old friend is also on the trail...

And the Adipose even get themselves a nice set of wheels!

Fires of Pompeii
Pompeii, AD 79. It's volcano day! But there's far more then Vesuvius to worry about: psychic powers are running rampant; a secretive Sisterhood conceals a horrifying High Priestess; and beneath the ground, vast creatures are stirring.

This is where Donna truely comes into her own, challenging the Time Lord like no-one's ever done before, with one vital question: if he knows everyone is going to die, why can't he save them? There is no easy answer for the Doctor, as the Cult of Vulcan prepares to forge a new empire on Earth....

Planet of the Ood
The Ood are "not evil" and they remind Donna of her cat.

Donna's first visit to an alien world. It's freezing! But on the icescapes of a distant planet, the greatest danger might be from the human race itself...

When the Doctor meets the Ood again - he's determined to find out the truth behind their servility. But when an Ood's eyes turn red, you know you're in trouble, and the red-eye is spreading....But it's a savage world out there in space with soldiers and riots and betrayals - and for the Doctor, a terrifying encounter with a very big claw!

The Sontaran Stratagem/The Poison Sky
Return of Martha Jones. Back from Torchwood in her new job as medical officer for UNIT, a worldwide army dedicated to fighting alien menaces. But the menace is bigger than ever, as the threat of ATMOS spreads across the planet!

"They're back, they're brutal and they're out for revenge"

And they have a nifty pod as well!

The Doctor's Daughter
Yep, its really called that!

"It does exactly what it says on the tin" and its has Tennant's most "spellbinding performance yet".

Jenny has her daddy's looks!


The Unicorn and the Wasp
Its a "bold" story and "might divide opinions"

In 1926, Agatha Christie mysteriously disappeared, only to be found ten days later with no memory of what had happened. Was it a nervous breakdown? A cry for help? Or perhaps a giant alien wasp? A classic murder mystery.


Silence in the Library/River's Run
Its "Very frightening", "Very scary... he's (Moffat) found another area of childhood alarm"

"we've got two episodes of terror with an abandoned library, moving shadows, the gruesome Nodes, and the horrifying Data ghost - possibly the most spine-chilling scene I've ever seen!"

Midnight
The planet Midnight is a leisure world! Golden spas, diamond landscapes, anti-gravity restaurants...what could possibly go wrong? But for once the Doctor's left powerless and terrified as the knocking on the wall begins....

Eeep!

Turn Left
"The strands of Donna's story begin to draw towards a terrible climax as she finds her life, her family, her entire world being devastated. Only one person can help. but this time, it's not the Doctor - it's someone from a parallel universe, a woman thought to be lost forever."

TBA/Journeys End
Still don't know the title for episode 12 as apparently it gives to much away... but RTD said that it does have three words in it.

Threat is on the epic scale as an ancient enemy is resurrected and the whole universe if thrown into danger! Who are the children of Time? What is the secret of the Vault? And surely, this time, not everyone can make it out alive...?

Hooray!

Gah when I saw this this morning in the RT I could not breathe and spent the whole time reading it, ignoring any question which my family happened to ask me. I'm so excited.

Cameron McEwan said...

Nice, I have updated some of the pictures including the Tim McInnerny (from the Ood episode), the SONTARAN and the Doctor's 'daughter'.

Jess said...

Aye, I saw... I'm trying hard to make sure I'm not just completely copying your site though! But I suppose if you say its alright I might upload the new pics...

Vault = Davros in his escape pod
Children of Time = Either new Daleks or new Time Lords. Probably new Daleks.

So when does all this awesomeness come to the U.S? From what I've heard it is around the 18th or 17th of April. Not sure though, but still I cannot wait.

Jess said...

I think you're right... the 18th sounds about the right time. BUT I think you start with Voyage of the Damned, so you wont get Partners in Crime until the 2th

Anyone else notice the potato face driver in the Adipose Taxi Picture?

Or is it just me?

Cameron McEwan said...

I've posted another pic of JENNY from THE DOCTOR'S DAUGHTER on my blog.

When the first BBC promo pics of the Sontaran were released, i thought he looked a little goofy & kind of 'un-menacing'. These new pics have addressed any concerns i was having. This series looks to be the best yet!

Acolyte Lithium of the Order of St Judes said...
