Welcome!
Welcome to Tardis Point News. This blog is no longer running, as I started watching Parks and Recreation and am still mourning over the cancellation of Eureka. Don't stop watching Doctor Who though, which is and always will be the best TV show ever.

Digital Spy Spoilers for Children of Earth, Part 1
Digital Spy have released a list of 10 teasers about episode 1 of the series. You can see the page, through here, and you can also read them below;
1. Children Of Earth has a slightly terrifying premise: all of the children in the world stop dead at exactly the same moment and begin uttering the message "We are coming." All of them. And all in English, too.
2. The "we" is revealed to be an alien race dubbed The 456, not heard from in over 40 years.
3. In addition to the children, there is one other person reciting the message - a psychiatric patient named Timothy White. What connection does this have to an incident in Scotland in 1965?
4. Captain Jack and Ianto are referred to as "a couple" on more than one occasion.
5. As the episode begins, Rhys is looking at new houses for him and Gwen. But by the end of the episode, she has a very large secret she needs to share with him.
6. Both Owen and Tosh make appearances.
7. We meet Ianto's sister, nephew and niece. How will he respond to confirmed sightings of him on a dinner date with a man?
8. We also meet Captain Jack's.... daughter. Yes, daughter.
9. By the end of the episode, both Jack and Gwen have something inside them. Both items will change their worlds forever.
10. The ending to the first episode is probably one of the most compelling cliffhangers the Whoniverse has ever seen.
Don't they just sound amazing?

Triumph of a Time Lord - Regenerating Doctor Who in the Twenty-first Century
I.B.Tauris have released information about the upcoming book: Triumph of a Time Lord - Regenerating Doctor Who in the Twenty-first Century. It's written by Matt Hills, and has a RRP of £12.99. It contains 256 pages, binded in paperback and is due to be published on 30th November, this year. You can see the cover and synopsis below:
Before Saturday March 26th 2005, 'Doctor Who' had been off the air as a regular, new TV series for more than fifteen years; until a production team led by Russell T. Davies re-imagined the programme so successfully, so triumphantly, that it's become an instant Christmas tradition, a BAFTA winner, an international 'superbrand' and a number one rated show.
It's even been credited with reinventing family TV. This is the first full-length book to explore the 'new Who' phenomenon through to the casting of Matt Smith as the new Doctor. It explores 'Doctor Who' through contemporary debates in TV Studies about quality TV and how can we define TV series as both 'cult' and 'mainstream'. Further, the book challenges assumptions in focusing on the importance of breath-taking, dramatic moments along with narrative structures, and in analysing the significance of Murray Gold's music as well as the series' visual representations.
Matt Hills is a lifelong 'Who' fan and he also considers the role of fandom in the show's return. He investigates too the multi-generic identity, the monster-led format, and the time-travelling brand of BBC Wales' 'Doctor Who'. In the twenty-first century, TV is changing, but the last of the Time Lords has been more than ready: he's been fantastic.
