NewsBytes and Spokesmodels
Yes. That’s right. I’m the spokesmodel in this scenario. I thought that you all might be amused by this image. It’s hard to see, but right under the monitor is the Dalek that went to Gallifrey One with me. I’m directing your attention to the TARDIS hub on top of the computer…which is named TARDIS, for the record. On the desk, in front of the computer tower, are two sonic screwdrivers. One is never enough, you know. And is this my desk? Nope. It’s my husband’s. As you can see, he is also a fan.
And now, news:
According to The Sun, a Dalek was recently dredged from a pond. Or, at least, its head was. Either it was a discarded prop from the 1970s, it’s a clever invasion ploy from those wily pepper pots, or someone over at ITV was heard to utter the phrase “bring me the head of a Dalek.” You choose. I’ll bet it gave the fellow clearing the pond a start.
Apparently, the TARDIS interior is due for a makeover. The Telegraph is reporting that we can expect to see the most intricate and high-tech TARDIS interior yet when the Eleventh Doctor takes over. I wonder what Mr. Moffat has in store for us. Time to change the desktop theme?
If you are in a position to go to the Celtic Media Festival this year, you may want to clear your schedule. On Wednesday, 25 March 2009, starting at about 8pm, there will be a special panel presentation that offers a look behind the scenes of Doctor Who. Called “The Story of Doctor Who,” this special event will feature Russell T Davies, Julie Gardner, Edward Thomas, Euros Lyn, and Ian Grutchfield talking about the process of taking a story from a script to the screen. Sigh. Too bad I have to be at work that day. Anyone out there planning on going?

I must say, this is about the best picture I have ever seen of you.
