Is the mind probe line from the Five Doctors? The more I think about it, I think it is. I've been watching a lot of Who recently and you know how I can go off into tangents.

Seems like the mind probe is up there with reversing the polarity of the neutron flow with regards to how often it has been used!

"No. Not the mind probe" If you live in Bolton you'll liably get a probing of a different nature...yes I have been at Suzi's Vodka, it's her fault for leaving it behind when she moved.

It is a classic scene out of how unintentionaly funny it is, just the blanck look of 'You want me to say what?' is hilarious.:pound:

So about 300 people in the country will be able to enjoy that then...

This is interesting

It says that the 3D anniversary special is going to be screened at cinemas as well as the BBC HD channel

Mind you, there is an absolutely hilarious quote in the article:

"The BBC's controller of drama commissioning Ben Stephenson said on Monday the anniversary of the time-travelling show would be a national event and compared it to the Queen's diamond jubilee and the Olympics"

Yes, I am a fan of the show, but methinks there is a certain amount of hyperbole here!

New hardbacks coming in April.

Shroud of Sorrow
Written by Tommy Donbavand


It is the day after John F Kennedy's assassination and the faces of the dead are everywhere. PC Reg Cranfield sees his deceased father in the mists along Totter's Lane. Reporter Mae Callon sees her late grandmother in a coffee stain on her desk. FBI Special Agent Warren Skeet finds his long-dead partner staring back at him from raindrops on a window pane.

Then the faces begin to talk, and scream - and push through into our world. As the alien Shroud begins to feast on the grief of a world in mourning, can the Doctor dig deep enough into his own sorrow to save mankind?


Plague of the Cybermen
Written by Justin Richards


When the Doctor arrives in the 19th-century village of Klimtenburg, he
discovers the residents suffering from some kind of plague – a "wasting
disease". The victims face a horrible death – but what's worse, the dead
seem to be leaving their graves. The Plague Warriors have returned . . .

The Doctor is confident he knows what's really happening; he understands
where the dead go, and he's sure the Plague Warriors are just a myth. But
as some of the Doctor's oldest and most terrible enemies start to awaken, he realises that maybe – just maybe – he's misjudged the situation.


The Dalek Generation
Written by Nicholas Briggs


Sunlight 349 is one of countless Dalek Foundation worlds, planets created to house billions of humanoids suffering from economic hardship. The Doctor arrives there, suspicious of any world where the Daleks are apparently a force for good – and determined to find out the truth.

He soon finds himself in court, facing the "Dalek Litigator". But do his arch-enemies really have nothing more to threaten than legal action? The Doctor knows they have a far more sinister plan – but how can he convince those who have lived under the benevolence of the Daleks for a generation? However, convince them he must, and soon. For on another Foundation planet, archaeologists have unearthed the most dangerous technology in the universe . . .


They all sound pretty good to me. :nod:
