Barry Letts, the producer of Doctor Who from 1970 to 1974, died at the age of 84. He was responsible for introducing Buddhist themes and ideas to the series during the Jon Pertwee era, and also cast Tom Baker as the fourth Doctor. I will always think of his strange, wonderful moment in the Doctor Who And The Daemons novelization, where the Doctor is driving along in Bessie (his yellow roadster) and bursts into song. Jo asks the Doctor why he's singing, when the world is about to end and everything is doomed. The Doctor replies that the world might end tomorrow, but for now, the sun is shining and he's singing.
Letts' involvement with the series continued for the rest of his life, including stepping back in as executive producer during the end of Baker's era, and producing audio plays starring Jon Pertwee in the 1990s. He will be missed.Barry Letts, the producer of Doctor Who from 1970 to 1974, died at the age of 84. He... more

Popular British kids show Blue Peter is hosting a contest calling for children in the UK to submit their original TARDIS designs for production. We're hoping this means that Matt Smith's Doctor is tinkering with the ship's Chameleon Circuit.
The contest is only open for children in the UK, and only those agde 6-12. The lucky child with the winning design gets to meet the Doctor Who cast and crew, and perhaps best of all gets to help oversee production of the design.
The re-design is specifically for the TARDIS console - not, sadly, for the outer appearance of the ship as well. The winning design will be used in a new upcoming episode of the show. We're curious to see how they work this in and even more curious to see the TARDIS console as designed by a ten-year-old.Popular British kids show Blue Peter is hosting a contest calling for children in the... more
