Another belated Torchwood review! This episode Phil and Paul take a look at episode 2 of Torchwood: Miracle Day and they are not best pleased. While Paul delivers his opinion with his usual level headed and measured approach, Phil let's his temper get the better of him as he vents his anger at what he believes to be an absolute stinker of an episode. They both agree that not much happened in Torchwoods latest installment and they also thumb their noses at a rather shoddy special effect.

Aww, it's time for a little downtime folks, as our heroes get used to the American air.

It's Jack On A Plane! Phil pulls up the flooring and Mark swears blind that he 'was never confused'...

The DWO TorchCast - It wants it's precious, it does...

What steamy summer read do we have set for July?  We're due for an BBC Eighth Doctor novel, and it's going to be Legacy of the Daleks by John Peel (ISBN: 0-563-40574-0), entry #10 in the Eighth Doctor series.  It features the return of Susan, the Daleks (duh!), and a certain other character from the television series who I shan't mention (spoilers!).  From the back cover:

England in the late 22nd century is slowly recovering from the devastation that followed the Daleks' invasion.  The Doctor's very first traveling companion -- his granddaughter, Susan -- is where he left her, helping to rebuild Earth for the survivors.  But danger still remains all around...

While searching for his lost companion, Sam, the Doctor finds himself in Domain London.  But it seems that Susan is now missing too, and his efforts to find her lead to confrontation with the ambitious Lord Haldoran, who is poised to take control of southern England through all-out war.  With the help of a sinister adviser, Haldoran's plans are already well advanced.  Power cables have been fed down a mineshaft, reactivating a mysterious old device of hideous power.  But has the Dalek presence on Earth really been wiped out?  Or are there still traps set for the unwary?

The Doctor learns to his cost once again that when dealing with the evil of the Daleks, nothing can be taken at face value...

Have you ever noticed that there are very few Dalek novels in the entire range of Doctor Who novels, from the Missing Adventures on?  As they are trademarks of the BBC, authors writing about them were legally obligated to pay a large portion of the book's proceeds to the BBC, so practically no one chose to write them.  John Peel, as a close friend to Terry Nation, elected to pick up the gauntlet and wrote both Legacy of the Daleks and War of the Daleks.  He also penned a number of Target novelizations of Dalek stories.  I also can't help but feel tickled that he wrote novels for the Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? series.  (Now good luck getting the theme song from the TV show out of your head.)

In which we step tentatively into the ethereal realm to mull over the function of religion in fictional worlds and how it can mirror our own. Along the way we poke a few holes in the fabric of reality, prod a few demons and deities with sticks to see what thet're made of, make wild and ill-conceived generalisations about how religions begin and, well, generally invite the wrath of the most powerful beings in the universe.

Actually, thinking about it we've already had their wrath reteroactively. Clover is missing for the first bit due to unholy technical difficulties, but there's plenty of waffle(s) to go around. Join us as we hit upon Holy social networking, the most popular reason for time-travel, artistic baby recycling, the function of flab in prehistoric man, alternative uses for disabled toilets and Much, Much more...
