Doctor Who - Strax To Meet Jago and Litefoot


File this one under barf.  I'm not a fan a Strax from NuWho and really do not find him funny all that much anymore.  Plus I liked the Sontarans as the warlike race and not the pantomime character they have turned into.  With that said Big Finish now has the rights to audio adventures with the Strax character and the first outing is teaming him up with Jago and Litefoot.   You can get that two disc adventure from the Big Finish website.

Strax, the Sontaran butler to Victorian investigator Vastra and her wife Jenny, suffers a disorienting attack and mistakes the two Victorian investigators Jago & Litefoot for Jenny and Vastra and moves into Litefoot’s home. Together, they are on the trail of a creature that is stealing brains, which may or may not be linked to a haunted house in London...

Doctor Who Review - Deep Breath (Spoilers)

Source
It feels like series 8 had already started a month ago. Lots of interviews with Peter Capaldi in numerous magazines, the World Tour and of course, the customary excitement across the social networks.

We have grown to expect a lot of media interest just before a new series, but this year its been bigger, and thats possibly due to Peter himself.

I remember receiving an email from the BBC last autumn, inviting me to take part in a survey for Doctor Who. I recall a question, asking me if I thought Peter was too old for the role. What? Seriously? is that really relevant? Unfortunately, for some people this has obviously been an issue. To quote a few articles I have read recently, both David Tennant and Matt Smith have been described as "Boyfriend Doctors". This has been down to their age and good looks, and in my opinion, some of the unnecessary soap opera writing that has unfortunately turned a once asexual main character, into a science fiction stud to satisfy those in the audience who crave romance. Therefore, the BBC knew they would need to justify the massive change expected in series 8, and allow the younger generation of fans to experience the Doctor in a more 'Classic Who' style. Their need to justify this completely dominated the first episode.

Doctor Who - Strax, Jenny and Vastra In Special Cinema Only Scene


Attention puny humans! Strax, along with Jenny and Vastra, are back in a special intro scene to ‘Deep Breath’ - only available in cinemas.
Is the quote from the BBC Doctor Who Facebook page.  There will be a special intro for Deep Breath in the cinema event for Deep Breath on Saturday Night and Monday Night.  So if you have tickets for the Deep Breath cinema showing I guess you'll be treated to an extra scene.
