On the latest SPACE Podcast, the Three Who Rule talk of pros and cons about a Doctor Who movie, a rumour that never seems to go away for very long. Would it be good or bad overall? Have a listen!

 With mere days to go before Gallifrey 2010 in Los Angeles, the Three Who Rule took it upon themselves to conduct their now-annual rundown of the panels, guests, goings-on and shenanigans sure to occur, all in the name of informing our dear listeners how often we’ll be hung over (answer: often.) Stay tuned all this week for daily podcasts, special guests and the most fun you can legally have involving Doctor Who and cast of thousands (well, a thousand and change.) Not all was silent from The Beeb this week, however, as the start date for Series Fnarg has been announced for April 3 on BBC One, hot on the heels of the new trailer for Matt Smith’s debut run. |

 It had to happen sooner or later, so the Three Who Rule ripped the bandage off by recording a commentary for The End of Time Part One, that neo-classic from Christmas 2009 containing such classic Who elements as magic potions, laser hands, randy senior citizens and Smell-O-Vision. Did the episode fare better this time round after the scolding it received in Radio Free Skaro 174? You decide. Also discussed was news of Gaiman, gay men, and gained men, er, companions. Onwards! |

 The news of a Doctor Who movie sent The Three Who Rule so far past the point of bile they circled back around to apathy, but not without taking a few hostages along the way. In a slow news week to end all slow news weeks, digression and hatred were employed like plow horses in an effort to simply fill time. Steven points the gun of spite squarely in a new direction, Warren wastes no time in slagging off other Sci Fi TV shows and Chris even sings a few bars… it’s just that kind of episode. |

Along with the previously-announced releases on May 4, it has now been announced that Dreamland, the recent animated episode written by Phil Ford, will see a release on the same day in a 2-disc set. As has previously been noted on Radio Free Skaro, the bulk of the bonus features are the Greatest Moments montage specials transmitted last year in the UK, however a commentary will be included.

 In a move that could be precipitated only by Slownewsweekor, the Three Who Rule relied upon Torchwood discussion to fuel the latest Radio Free Skaro episode. The news of Torchwood maybe coming to America hit like a ton of bricks and startled much of the Doctor Who world, causing panic and looting; there may or may not have been talk of small children getting crushed underfoot as a result. |

 The retrospectives continue on Radio Free Skaro with The Three Who Rule again joined by TachyonTV’s Neil Perryman… though this week the world got flipped, turned upside down as the unthinkable happened: An episode dedicated to praising the work of Russell T Davies! Curmudgeor was not best pleased at the prospect and had to be subdued, but in the end the lads had a bit of a love-in for our favourite (read: only) NuWho show runner. Come share the warm fuzzies! |

That may seem like a bold statement until you take a step back and look at Doctor Who’s storied history in a larger context. When Tom Baker took the role in 1974, he was something of an unknown quantity, a tall and gangly question mark poised to fill the shoes of Jon Pertwee, the “man of action” Doctor who ably rang the show into the Seventies. Likewise, Tennant took over for the broody and intense Christopher Eccleston, who ably shepherded the show back into existence in 2005.
And once Tennant had the role he ran with it. It didn’t hurt that Tennant grew up as a massive fan of the classic series, able to drop the most obscure references to Mandrels and Sensorites at the drop of a hat.

| Artwork for the Region 1 releases of the gap year specials has been released.
On February 2, we will see a standalone release of The Waters of Mars, a standalone release of The End of Time and a box set containing all the gap year specials, including the previously-released The Next Doctor and Planet of the Dead. All releases will be available on both DVD and Blu-Ray (except The Next Doctor which was not shot in HD and will be unavailable on Blu-Ray). The US packaging carries an “As Seen on BBC America” notation; we can but assume the Canadian packaging will carry an “As Seen on SPACE” notation. Edit: Per Steve Manfred, The Next Doctor will be upconverted to 1080i and be on Blu-Ray as part of The Specials Box Set. |

 It’s the End of Time and the end of an era, and the Three Who Rule were all over the map in their praise and derision of David Tennant and RTD’s swan song. One thing they all did agree on was their palpable excitement over Matt Smith’s new Doctor and Steven Moffat’s upcoming stewardship of Doctor Who, and that it’ll be a long few months indeed before Spring 2010. Geronimo! |
