The Doctor Who Experience Photos Released

The official Doctor Who website has released a gallery of photos from the Doctor Who Experience, which opens in London this weekend. The event has been described as “the ultimate Doctor Who Adventure”, and is part immersive experience, part interactive exhibition. Specially written scenes featuring Matt Smith as the Doctor, fiendishly inventive sets, and incredible effects conspire to make the Doctor Who Experience more than just an exhibition.

The premise of the immersive adventure is to take visitors through their very own journey across time and space, helping the Doctor, dealing with Daleks and whirling through a breath-taking world. There will be three TARDIS sets on views, as well as classic monsters and mementoes from the show itself.

The Doctor Who Experience gallery can be viewed here.

Sontarans Return in Doctor Who Series 6

A photo of the filming at Lafarge Cement Aberthaw has revealed that there will be an appearance from the Sontaran race in Matt Smith’s second series, which is due to begin in April. It is believed that the filming was for Matthew Graham’s two-part story ‘The Rebel Flesh’ and ‘Gangers’, which are positioned as the fifth and sixth episodes of the series.

It is currently unknown whether the Sontarans are the main enemies of the story, or if there is just a cameo appearance from this single Sontaran Warrior. However, the Sontarans do fit in with what we already know about the plot for this episode, as there have been mentions of clones.

A high-quality image of the previously announced Amy Pond kissogram action figure has been released online, showing it as part of the ‘Christmas Adventure Set’ along with the Eleventh Doctor and his new TARDIS.

The figure of the Doctor included in this set has a light brown shirt, with a slightly altered tweed jacket. Amy Pond is wearing her kissogram policewoman outfit as seen in ‘The Eleventh Hour’, which was made into a figure due to high demand.

The Doctor Who Experience Show Announced

It has been announced that Doctor Who fans will get the chance to step inside the TARDIS and defeat the Daleks in a brand new show dedicated to the programme. ‘The Doctor Who Experience’ will include special effects and newly-filmed scenes with the Eleventh Doctor Matt Smith recreating the Time Lord’s adventures.

The event will include an exhibition recognising the history of the programme from its first series in 1963 right up to the latest episodes, as well as displays with original costumes, a Tom Baker-era TARDIS, and Cybermen, Silurian and Zygon outfits. Tickets for ‘The Doctor Who Experience’ will go on sale on 18th November 2010, with the show opening on 20th February 2011 at London’s Olympia.

The current Executive Producer Steven Moffat said: “The Doctor Who Experience is a fan's dream come true - a fully interactive adventure that will allow viewers of the show to get as close as possible to some of the scariest monsters from the series.

It will also be the first time that Doctor Who artefacts from all the show's 47-year history - classic and new - will be on display together, many of them being seen for the first time. And never mind that, this is the day the Doctor teaches you how to fly the Tardis through time and space, and takes you into battle with all his deadliest enemies in a brand new adventure.”

Doctor Who Tardis Extension for Series 6

The Doctor Who fan blog ‘Doctor in the Tardis’ has reported that the next series of the show will feature an extension to the TARDIS interior, although it may only consist of a few more corridors. The only rooms to have been shown in the newly designed TARDIS for Matt Smith’s Doctor are the Console Room and the Drawing Room.

“A few days ago I told about how I had received word that a new set had been built for an extension to the TARDIS console room, for filming during series 6, but now it seems that although we will be getting more TARDIS interior, it had indeed been filmed in a steel works and will only appear as corridors.

If true, then it is likely that the scenes were/will be filmed in Port Talbot steel works, which is about 30 minutes outside of Cardiff and the only one in the area. It seems that whether its a new room, or some new corridors, the likelihood of seeing more of the TARDIS is looking ever more positive.”

Photos from the filming yesterday at Taffs Well in Cardiff have been released online, and show the TARDIS prop amongst various pieces of debris in a quarry. This picture also shows the remains of two pillars, which appear to have been badly damaged.

'The Adventure Games' Confirmed for Series 2

The BBC have confirmed that a second series of ‘The Adventure Games’ has been commissioned for 2011, due to the success of the first run of stories. The first three interactive games pulled in 1.6 million downloads from the official BBC Doctor Who website.

However, the three games released so far have had mixed reviews from fans of the show, in particular the latest story ‘TARDIS’, which had a weak plotline and very little for the player to do.

The final interactive game from the first series is currently unnamed, but is believed to feature a giant shark monster, if the ending from the third game links directly into the fourth.

The Adventure Games - 'TARDIS' Now Available

The third interactive Doctor Who story, ‘TARDIS’, is now available to download from the official BBC website.

“With the TARDIS caught in a time riptide, it's up to Amy to save the day. Meanwhile, a dangerous entity is roaming the TARDIS corridors and it hasn't been fed for a very long time...”
