From his beginnings as a crotchety, anti-heroic scientist in 1963 to his current place in British pop culture as the mad and dangerous monster-fighting saviour of the universe, the titular character of Doctor Who has metamorphosed in his 50 years on television. And yet the questions about him remain the same: Who is he? Why does he act the way he does? What motivates him to fight evil across space and time? The Doctors Are In is a guide to television’s most beloved time traveller by Graeme Burk and Robert Smith? Join them for a conversation about the book and about why the Doctor has been an enduring character for over five decades.

The modern series of Doctor Who has featured each companion doing remarkable and sometimes super human things… but in the meanwhile, there are massive cries for returning back to the old paradigm of a perfectly normal ‘regular person’ stepping into those shoes for the next round. We’ll discuss the evolution of the role of the companion, including addressing some of the reasons why people might be over the larger than life companion role (and why there are sometimes sexist notions behind that), and debating why developing the companion back into a supporting player might not be the best thing for the show in 2016.

Doctor Who’s rich tapestry of storytelling often falls to fan service; often times we find ourselves looking forward solely to that twist that brings back a familiar face, a villain we cannot live without, or a voyage to Gallifrey or otherwise. But how does this shrink the canvas Doctor Who plays out upon? We’ll take a look at where continuity supersedes good storytelling… and why, paradoxically, the conservatism of some parts of fandom begets the notion that fans of a show about change seem to dislike change entirely.
Having come to Doctor Who as an adult in 2008, as modern Series Four was being broadcast, Marcia dubbed herself a "Neowhovian"—both a new fan and a fan of the "new" show. She quickly became a fan of the entire run, both Classic and modern, and since January 2011 has blogged regularly... Read More →

Crossovers have been a big part of fandom for years, but there’s one that has really stuck, even bafflingly so: Superwholock, the mashup that brings the three shows Doctor Who, Sherlock and Supernatural together in one giant shared universe, and it’s huge online. Our panel will discuss the reasons why this holy trinity of TV shows is so big on Tumblr and elsewhere: is it the danger? The adventure? The hot, smart guys? What’s the secret?

Since his creation by Barry Letts and Terrance Dicks during Jon Pertwee's era as The 3rd Doctor, The Master has become a part of DOCTOR WHO mythology and continues to this day. Here's a look at the character during the 'classic' years… and possibly a bit beyond….
One of the biggest appeals of Doctor Who to families with children is the strong message it sends: to fight without words instead of weapons, to build bridges between strangers, and to look at the universe with an open mind. Our panel will discuss the impact of Doctor Who on children and teenagers, and the life lessons that are learned from the mad man in the box.

Gary Russell, Jason Haigh-Ellery and Mark Oliver bring us a special sneak-peek at PRISONER ZERO, the new Australian science fiction animated series coming in 2016. It's a brand-new animated sci-fi series aimed at 8-12 year olds - and beyond!!
'Prisoner Zero' is a science-fiction adventure series for kids. It tells the story of Gem Coll and Tag Anaton, two teenagers from different worlds, living aboard a spaceship called Rogue. They travel to alien worlds to fight monsters from ancient times, free the oppressed from the evil Imperium's tyranny and find out just who Prisoner Zero is and why the Imperium took away his memories. Leading the fight is Zero himself, aided by Gem's adoptive parents Del and Bowi Rev, the mysterious alien known only as Librarian and Tag's personal protection android, Guardian. The Imperium is masterminded by the sly, manipulative General Vykar along with his handpicked team: Prime Tactician Barqel and Prime Assassin Lady Kai.
Created by an army of young animators, Planet 55 Studios' new show pulls together a powerful struggle of good versus evil. Against an emotional backdrop of the teenagers trying to rescue their parents, Zero seeks to learn the secrets of his past that the Imperium erased while he was being held captive.
