Doctor Who Online – Why Eccleston REALLY Quit Doctor Who

Marc A. Price — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 22:38:28 +0000

Dear Chris,

I was going to write a bunch of stuff about the rest of us eating shit to get by on a daily basis and that you are in such a privileged position but…
oh never mind…
you disappoint me…

“I thought to remain, which would have made me a lot of money and given me huge visibility, the price I would have had to pay was to eat a lot of shit. I’m not being funny about that. I didn’t want to do that and it comes to the art of it, in a way. I feel that if you run your career and– we are vulnerable as actors and we are constantly humiliating ourselves auditioning. But if you allow that to go on, on a grand scale you will lose whatever it is about you and it will be present in your work.

R.I.P. Elisabeth Sladen, Doctor Who’s Apprentice

Elisabeth Sladen, who played Sarah Jane Smith in Doctor Who and two spin-off shows, has died, according to BBC News.

Her death is a huge loss to Doctor Who fans, and to fans of strong female adventure heroes everywhere. It’s hard to overstate how important Elisabeth Sladen was to Doctor Who, and how much she transformed the role of the companion on the show. In many ways, she paved the way for all of the show’s more intelligent, resourceful companions in the 21st Century.

Not much else I can say. It is a sad day.

Doctor Who – BBC America trailer

Marc A. Price — Fri, 01 Apr 2011 17:37:17 +0000

So this week we get not one but two different trailers for the new series of Doctor Who. One from Aunty BEEB in the UK and the other from their cousins over the pond. Difficult to tell which one I like best. The US one seems to have more in it. Still… not long to wait now…

Warren Ellis asked what the 13th Doctor might look like. There were lots of awesome entries. I think that this is my favorite.
