quick test
This is just a quick test-they are forcing me to move over to the new blogger-I just want to make sure everything is a-ok before I continue.
*special note*: if you want to contribute to the Idiot's Lantern, you'll either have to upgrade to the new blogger, or create a new account with a google account (if you have a gmail account, then you're all set) If you don't already have one, you can create one when you create a blogger account.
Anyone who belongs to DWC and would like to contribute to this blog, you can contact me through the yahoo group-my email should be listed there. :) Thanks!

60 minute special-Monday, January 1st 2007 on CBBC:
Invasion of the Bane
The new 8th Doctor audios consist of two two-part stories, and four stand-alone stories, each running about 50 minutes (not unlike the format of the current television series!) Not that that's a bad thing-I'm just fond of the 25 minute multi-part series. ;)
Speaking of the audios-if Blood of the Daleks was any indication of the quality of the rest stories, then I can't wait for the others! I really enjoyed it-I'll be posting a review soon. :)
I know I've been home from vacation for a couple of weeks now, but I'm still trying to catch up on my blog reading. Did anyone catch Julie Gardner's interview on RadioWales last month? According to Michael over at the Torchwood Institute, she is hoping that Torchwood will cross over to America sometime in the new year. Cool! :) [link]
Doctor Who has been nominated for a Nebula Award!! Girl in the Fireplace is on the ballot which will go out in May. :) [SyFyPortal link]

Invasion of the Bane
Intial viewing figures are in for SJA-2.9 million viewers. Interestingly enough, out of that, only 0.4 million were children (the target audience). In any case, a series has been commisioned (yay!) and is due to start filming this spring.
I didn't mention it last week, but the BBC had a press release regarding the 2-part episode set in 1930s New York. Follow the link from Unitnews for more info. I think this episode will be the episode I look forward to the most for series 3! (Well, besides the return of Captain Jack , of course!) ;)

Unitnews also has a picture that the BBC released of the Doctor and Martha in the TARDIS. Enjoy! [unitnews link]
