A Doctor Who Podcast
Today’s adventure calendar content continues with yesterday’s theme of Steven Moffat looking back at classic Dalek stories.
Today, he take a look at The Evil of the Daleks, which all but 1 episode is lost to us.
Doctor Who Adventure Calendar Day 4
The Doctor Who Adventure Calendar will not be limiting it’s self to Christmas special teases. Today’s content is an interview with Steven Moffat on the Daleks.
From the website: “To celebrate the Doctor’s oldest alien adversaries we’re beginning a short series of videos which feature Doctor Who’s lead writer and Executive Producer, Steven Moffat, discussing their history. He selects a number of stories that are amongst his favourites and the most significant Dalek adventures, beginning, appropriately enough, with the Daleks’ debut from December, 1963.
He reviews stories stretching right back to the First Doctor era.”
You can watch the video here: Doctor Who Adventure Calendar Day 3
In this week’s episode we take a departure from Doctor Who (well, somewhat) to review the third season of The Sarah Jane Adventures. Our review of the whole series, story by story.
Also, our reaction and input in news out this week about Jenna-Louise Coleman and how her character in Asylum of the Daleks relates (or doesn’t relate rather) to the rest of Series 7.
And of course your feedback. Enjoy!

Doctor Who Adventure Calendar, 2012
BBC has launched and advent calendar like lead up to Christmas day, called the Doctor Who Adventure Calendar 2012.
Each day until Christmas a different video, galleries and clips will be released. For those trying to avoid any possible spoilers, it may be best to avoid these days. For the rest of us looking for any bit of new Who we can get our hands on, Enjoy!
Here is Day 1’s video:
Doctor Who Adventure Calendar, 2012
Tonight join us for Tom Baker as the fourth Doctor, K9 and @Lou_Jameson in The Invisible Enemy. Look for us on Twitter, and follow @vortexshaun, @vortexglenn, @VortexKeith and @travelvortex. We push play at midnight, CDT, and as always, look for the hashtags #FridayNightWho and #TheInvisibleEnemy.
We’ve reached the end (well, tomorrow) and once again wanted to thank everyone who participated and we hope you had fun with this. We liked it enough to do it again soon, (perhaps not over the busy holiday season). Again, only the pics posted to Instagram can been seen above, but we’ve seen them on Facebook and Twitter as well. And if you still want to play? Why not do it again in December? We’re pretty lax on the rules, if you have missed out and want to join, by all means jump in now, or start at the beginning and post a bunch of photos to get caught up!
The idea is to post a new photo everyday, but obviously, life gets in the way of fun sometimes, so if you get behind, just take two or three photos and post them for the days you missed. The categories are posted here: but we’ll also send out daily reminders so you can keep up. Be creative, have fun, and let’s see your pictures!
