The Fourth Doctor is particularly famous for his ridiculously long scarf, which resulted from a miscommunication between costume designer James Acheson and the knitter hired to produce it; Acheson never specified a length, and bought far too much yarn, so the knitter just kept going until it was all used up.

Kat Martin takes discarded landscapes and alters them just a bit. A monster here or a zombie there. In this case, the TARDIS and Doc Brown’s DeLorean have rematerialized in the same place at the same time.

But this was not Matt Smith the actor – it is a 22-year-old from Rochford in Essex who worked with BBC Worldwide to set up his proposal, which was accepted, at the Doctor Who Experience in London.

Mr Smith surprised his new fiancee, avid Who fan Stacie-Anne Dilkes, who thought she was heading to London for a shopping trip.

He thought it would be the perfect location and slipped away from his partner to pop on the uniform of the 11th Doctor then pretending to be an exhibit before popping the question on one knee.

Did you know that the Daleks originated from Doctor Who’s take on the Cuban Missile Crisis?

The second serial presented on Doctor Who, a six-part story called “The Daleks,” was set on a distant world where the nightmare of 1962 actually came to pass; two nations, the Thals and the Dals, had been locked in an arms race for some indeterminate period of time, finally developing nuclear weapons, resulting in a full nuclear exchange between the two and irradiating the planet Skaro. The radiation was so severe that by the time our heroes arrive, the forests are petrified and full of mummified animals. Those who survived the exchange are now drastically mutated. The Thals have mutated full-circle, becoming a handsome race devoted to peaceful coexistence. They believe the Dals are either extinct or so horribly mutated that they cannot emerge from their frozen city. Neither is completely true; the Dals have mutated horribly, to the point where they have no skeletons and are no longer capable of independent life, but they have developed tank-like travel machines, equipped with life support and a formidable weapons system. They have become the Daleks.

The awesomest viral video of the day is this gem hosted by YouTube user sillysparrowness. She built a (nonfunctional model of a) TARDIS. Why? “A woman isn’t complete without her own TARDIS.”

The construction is good, but her hilarious presentation and video editing make this the best home TARDIS construction project ever. She’d be a great companion for the Doctor.

Do you like Doctor Who, but you just don’t have time to catch up on the episodes you’ve missed over the years? Do you hate Doctor Who and want to know what all the fuss is about? Are you saying to yourself  “I couldn’t care less, but I sure do enjoy Best Of… videos, especially when they’re set to a snazzy soundtrack”?

If any of these apply to you, or you’re just bored and need to kill ten minutes, then you should check out A Babelcolour Tribute to Doctor Who, which shows a snippet from every single episode of the series since 1963 and is the perfect length for break time.

This is the first trailer for the upcoming Doctor Who video game The Eternity Clock that shows gameplay, and it seems the game will be combining old school platformer elements with third person action and super cinematic cutscenes.

Starring the Eleventh Doctor, River Song, Amy Pond and just about every major enemy from the last few seasons of the show, this game is definitely going for an epic level look, but I feel like the fun in gameplay variety might get sucked out by frustrating platforming puzzles and too many cutscenes. After watching the video, what do you guys think about this game?

I don’t know about any of you, but to me, David Tennant was the best doctor ever and the cast and crew that worked on the show during his reign were also some of the best the show has ever seen. That’s why I simply adore this great video showing everyone who helped work on the show singing The Proclaimers at the close of his last filming session.

It works through TVs or set-top boxes that are internet enabled, sending out Wi-Fi signals to any device in the home that can also connect to the internet.

The successful trial, involving two foot high Daleks, was revealed by BBC research and development bosses in the industry journal Broadcast.

Project director Adrian Woolard said: “It’s a playful illustration that shows the possibilities that exist to producers when we start to think about future connectivity in a home environment in which all devices will be IP (internet) connected.

“Effectively this puts another actor in the living room, enabling a production team to write a script and include it as part of the viewer’s experience.”

We must sadly continue to wait before the production and release of a Dalek spoken word poetry album. Until that day comes, this visual presentation will have to suffice.

I guess that I should be glad that I got married before the revival of Doctor Who. I could do what’s crossed out, but I’m not sure that I could come up with a TARDIS. Certainly not a functional one.

We respect people of other traditions, including Whovians. But we are Trekkies. Gotta start teaching the family ways and traditions while they’re young and impressionable.

The Doctor of Doctor Who is effectively immortal. On those rare occasions when he dies, he regenerates into a new form, often with a new personality. It’s a fine time to switch actors, which is probably good because William Hartnell (who portrayed the First Doctor) would be 103 if he still lived.

Brian Rimmer, who once assembled a fine video showing the introductory theme to every Doctor Who series, has compiled the regeneration scenes of all eleven Doctors. The last one at 8:45 is just plain funny.
