Countdown to Day of the Doctor - Day the ....eh? Ninth entry anywhos
I was hunting for something else entirely when I found this (which I hope I can locate for a later entry). In all honesty I'm not a huge Matt SmithDr/Amy/Rory/Clara fan so I haven't been as into Dr Who as this ridiculousness of blogs may indicate so the hype about the new Doctor passed me by but I love that there was speculation (loud and rabid ( Read more... ) -
Countdown to Day of the Doctor - Day the ....eh? Eighth entry anywhos
When I was in late primary school there was a book about Dr Who on the shelf in our classroom. It was a reference book with at least a page devoted to each of the doctors and various other pages about the companions and monsters.

Countdown to Day of the Doctor - Day the 1st
I was meant to post this yesterday but I was wiped by the time I managed to make it home!
