Dr Who 50th Anniversary Poll Results

For the past month, we have asked our fans for their opinions about the past 50 years.

First up. "Greatest Episode" and the winner was Blink. Blink scared the pants off us and everyone else.I was a little surprised an episode with such little on-screen Doctor and companion made #1.

Next was "Greatest Companion". No surprise it was Sarah Jane Smith. She is the iconic Dr Who companion and is the person that all companions are compared to.


Lastly, was the "Greatest Moment". The winner was David Tennant regenerating into Matt Smith. Lots of our fans were sad when Tennant left the show.

Here's hoping for 50 more years of Dr Who.

Happy Birthday Paul McGann

Night of The Doctor

BBC Release "Night of the Doctor" which is a prequel to "Day of the Doctor".  Great performance by Paul McGann as the 8th Doctor and is the first time we have seen him playing the Doctor on TV since the Doctor Who Movie. What's really big is that McGann mentions his former companions from the Big Finish Audio Stories, which now makes them part of Dr Who cannon. After watching this many times, one has to wonder what a McGann Doctor Series would have been like. His performance is flawless and makes me hunger to see him again on TV playing the Doctor.

Review Dr Who: Besieged

So you never heard of Dr Who Besieged? Well, that because it's a fan film. I was searching the net for a good Dr Who Fan Film and came across Ryan Hendrick's Besieged. I have to admit I was impressed. This is basically Dr Who meets Aliens.  Interesting concept. Not my first choice for a cross-over for Dr Who, but not a bad one.

I wasn't expecting much, since this was a fan film but I was pleasantly surprised. The acting was good. No great, but it didn't feel like a novice saying the lines. The Doctor is played by Ryan Hendrick and his Doctor is kinda like David Tennant, but not as whimsical. The special effects were not too bad. Yes they are some cheesy special effects, but we are Dr Who fans. We love cheesy special effects. Now this is kinda on the long side. Part 1 is like 43 mins and part 2 is 54 mins.

Overall, I give it a 2 out of 5 Tardis's if being compared to other Dr Who episodes. Rated as a Fan Film, I give it a 5 out 5 Tardis's. This is better then some real Dr Who episodes, which is pretty amazing for a fan film to do. I can't wait to see what else Ryan will be doing.
