Fast Return – April 2007
THERE WILL BE BLOOD
A golden rule has been broken! There was blood! On screen! We saw it!
Poor Anne Reid – what with this, and Hot Fuzz, she’s kind of become
synonymous with the stuff this year.
OTHER THINGS WE THOUGHT BOE’S FOUR WORDS WOULD BE
“Where are my toes?”
“Gherkin in a Jar”
“It IS the Rani”
“Love the new costume!”
CAN’T WE KEEP HER ON, SIR? SHE’S MUCH PRETTIER THAN A COMPUTER!
These days you’d think we’d seen it all and read it all thanks to the twin colossi of Outpost Gallifrey and the BBC’s own Doctor Who site. But what’s this? Spoilers? Exclusives? Screencaps and free-to-anywhere rips of the new series trailer? No, it’s not a fan site. Well, it is actually, but not what you’d think. Step up http://freemaagyeman.com/- the new First Site To Visit in Who fandom!
UNHOLY CYBERCRUCIFIXION COVER BATMAN!
We have to ask…Was the TSV 74 cover especially chosen for an Easter unveiling, or what? A Mel Gibson editorial’s surely just an issue away.
MISTER DAVIES – YOU’RE SPOILING US!
It’s a commonly held fanboy belief that things just aren’t the same with the new series than the old. The Doctor’s younger, there are fewer cliffhangers and the stories aren’t made to please just us anymore (dammit!) But gor’bless that Rusty Davies for not only sabotaging his newest writer’s cliffhanger with a Radio Times cover, but allowing, for just a few days, some fan outrage at the supposed casting of Kylie Minogue. And he made Fairfax media look like a bunch of twonks. It’s like the 1980s all over again – the man’s a genius!
and finally…

In the words of Derek and Clive :
“Laugh………. I nearly shat meself.”
Extra clever stuff and terrifically funny lads.
And also the 2nd jibe about the Chch chapter from the Zeusers in as many weeks.
Who said us southerners weren’t funny ?

Aww come on, guys that’s just not on.
Did you have to blow the Mel Gibson exclusive?
Now we’ll have to think of another guest celeb to write that editorial…

Maybe you could get hold of Kylie?

Get hold of Kylie? Thank you for that mental image.

Looks like the cover for TSV 76 is sorted then.
