Random Timey Wimey Thoughts…
One Whovian Relives ‘Doctor Who: The Day Of The Doctor’

After so long a wait, the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who is here – The Day of the Doctor has come and gone, but will never be forgotten by Whovians in a long time. The big episode, written by Steven Moffat, has sent ripples through the fan community – with hugely positive reviews floating around the place.

Positive reviews for an anniversary episode of Doctor Who – now THAT must be a first. The previous anniversary specials – The Three Doctors, The Five Doctors, Silver Nemesis – are great in retrospect, from a nostalgic point of view; though all seemed to suffer from some unenthusiastic initial reactions from fans and critics alike – as well as cast and crew, too.

Not so for The Day of the Doctor, which aired globally on November 23, 2013. Mind you, this is not really a review, more a collection of random timey wimey thoughts in reaction to the new episode and its significance in the history of Doctor Who.

And bear in mind, in the words of River Song: Spoilers! They ARE below, so consider yourself alerted.

While Whovians are gearing up for the big 50th Anniversary of Doctor Who, one remarkable fan is celebrating by doing his best to do so by getting fans to donate to charity.

Craig Hurle, Whovian Extraordinaire and admin of one of the most popular (and by far the best) Facebook fan pages called The Doctor Who Hub, is reaching out to Whovians to donate to the Unite Against Cancer charity – an organization set up in 2012 to fund research into new cancer treatments.

Using the JustGiving.com site, which is like Kickstarter but for charitable causes, Hurle has set up Doctor Who Fans Unite Against Cancer, with a deadline of November 23, 2013, otherwise now forever known as the Day of the Doctor.

It’s been a while, but the countdown is on for the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special, now titled The Day of the Doctor. The TARDISblend podcast is back to give you a round up on the rumors and news surrounding the upcoming special, highlighting what to expect.
