Gallfrey – 11 days and counting

Don’t think I’ll be able to survive sitting 8 hours at work today without getting up every hour to stretch my poor, abused back. Fried my brain working hours and hours yesterday on Adobe Flash for our Who Crack video for Gallifrey, but MAN, did it come out AMAZING looking! The special “countdown” opening and surprise credits sequence premiered to a cheering crowd of the household denizens, Kristen and her BF Chris Mitchell (who has now been upgraded to a “husband” status in our end credits, lol!). Crossing my fingers it looks good on the beta run Kristen and I are doing tonight. If it does, I will be blitzing Facebook, LiveJournal and Twitter with teasers right up until the big day of our world premiere on Gallifrey Friday.

Karen Gillian, David Tennant and Steven Moffat at the Radio Times Covers Party

Posted on by Posted in Doctor Who

Karen Gillan and Steven Moffat attended the annual Radio Times Covers party last night, hosted by David Tennant. The party celebrates all it’s cover stars from the past 12 months. Matt was not in attendance, but Karen had 2 covers and Steven was there for the new Dalek cover.

Okay, this shot of Karen and David is SO CUTE!

Man, this woman really DOES have 200-foot tall legs!


Who the hell is that with Gillian and Tennant? Man, David, you aren’t looking so great these days…looking kinda gaunt, if you ask me.

Wow…all I have to say is "Wow!"

Ah, Facebook. strikes again. Attack of the 50-foot TARDIS!!!

Update – the comments to this pic have been coming thick and fast on LiveJournal all day. I’ve amused myself by watching them grow. This one I love not just because of the comment, but because the user icon that goes with it is so darn funny!

They have an insanely creative side over there that makes me feel right at home.
