Doctor Who Number Two

Depite viewer numbers being low this season, Doctor Who has nabbed second place in a public vote for The Most Beloved BBC Show conducted by the BBC's The One show.

That's quite an honour and there's obviously still a lot of love for the series.

Doctor Who Retcons

When we saw this article in the newsfeed by Comic Book Resources:
