BBC want Virgin advert banned?
BBC Worldwide have reportedly asked Virgin to suspend their advert which features David Tennant and Richard Branson as it apparently breaks guidelines by using the BBC brand to endorse its product.
The advert shows David Tennant selecting Doctor Who on TV and Richard Branson in a TARDIS/Lazarus Experiment type contraption which makes him younger.
In response, Virgin said their “new campaign explores some of the benefits of Virgin Media TiVo, including the ability to search for your favourite actor and discover TV programmes, films and YouTube content available live, on demand and as catch-up TV.”

It's nearly coming to a close for Amelia Pond and Rory Williams, but will they go out with a bang (no naughty pun intended)?
Well, there seems to be a rumour going around...

BREAKING NEWS: Doctor Who to end in 2012
As if we couldn't have been told this any other time (Moffat does have some
perfect timing, doesn't he?) Doctor Who is set to finish completely in 2012!
Reason? The budget of course. Speaking at a press conference, Moffat stated that
it was the diminishing BBC budget which is causing a whole number of other
less-popular shows to go, such as Being Human.
"For a number of years, the BBC's budget has caused restraints on
our work, but this time it is most unfortunate to tell you that as
of this day, all work on Doctor Who will cease."
Lest we forget, the timing is bad because the new companion will probably
stay off-screen, unless the BBC gets their weight together!

A Quick Hello.
Massive apologies for the lack of updates in the last decade. My time to scrawl through Doctor Who news has been severely limited between A Levels, university preparation and work.
I found this video, which some of you may enjoy.
But I promise I will get back to the site soon. When the big trucks of news come rolling in, my fingers will be darting all over the keyboard!

Trailer: The Decoy Bride
Here is the trailer for David Tennant's next on-screen outing as James Arber in The Decoy Bride. The film will hit cinemas on March 9th with a DVD released on March 12th.The synopsis reads...
When the wedding of internationally famous film star Lara Tyler (ALICE EVE) to tweedy English author James Arber (DAVID TENNANT) is sabotaged by a paparazzo, they decide to relocate the event to the one place where the world’s press won’t find them: the sleepy Island of Hegg, as featured in James’ bestselling novel The Ornithologists Wife. But to the shock of Lara’s P.A Steve Korbitz (MICHAEL URIE), the reality of the island is different from the romanticised picture James has created (without ever visiting), and he has to transform this fantasy world before the superstar arrives.
However, dilapidated buildings and greedy islanders are the least of the problems that the wedding party and their Hollywood entourage have to deal with, as Marco (FEDERICO CASTELLUCCIO) the ingenious paparazzo tracks them down in his mission to photograph the celebrity wedding of the year.
Steve and his assistant Emma (SALLY PHILLIPS) must find a decoy bride and think that local girl Katie (KELLY MACDONALD) will be an ideal replacement. But when Katie meets James, sparks fly, dresses get ruined and love gets complicated.
Will Katie be able to fool the awaiting media and live up to being a stand-in for the world’s most famous movie star? Can an ordinary girl fill the most famous Manolos on the planet? And whatever will happen to her pledge never, under any circumstances, to fall in love again?
Watch: We'll Take Manhattan
Karen Gillan stars in a drama set in the 60s, which recounts the Vogue photoshoot which changed fashion forever... Karen plays Jean Shrimpton, an unknown model who shot to fame as a result.
Enjoy!

Russell T Davies is back!
The legend behind the revival of Doctor Who is back with a brand new TV show!
Russell T Davies (the T stands for nothing) is to return to TV with a new television series entitled Aliens vs. Wizards, to be shown on CBBC. Expected to air in Autumn this year, the show sees a 16-year old wizard and his friend battling to save Earth from an alien race: the Nekross.
Davies' last venture was The Sarah Jane Adventures, which ended last year. Another Davies production is also in the works to be shown in the US.

Writing for children in the biggest challenge of all and I think CBBC stands right at the heart of broadcasting. So I'm delighted to launch this show, a true nationwide collaboration – a Salford commission from a BBC Wales team. We're joining genres too – the show's a wild, funny, thrilling and sometimes scary collision of magic and science fiction.
