Doctor Who: 15 Unanswered Questions


Will Salmon of SFX looks at some of the questions still left hanging after two seasons of Moffat-vision

So, why go to the trouble of putting River in the lake?

Speaking of the incident at Lake Silencio, did it really take the Doctor 200 years to come up with that escape plan?

What was going on with those photos of a happy Amy and baby Melody?

How does drawing tally marks on your face help? Surely that’s an awkward place to mark yourself? You’d need to carry a mirror around with you at all times.

What’s going on with Madame Kovarian?

What was that Season 6B teaser all about?

How are Dorium and those skulls still alive?

Are the Doctor and River married now?

Whatever happened to the Evil League of Evil?

Speaking of monsters, what’s up with the Cybermen?

What’s going on with the other timeship from “The Lodger”?

So who blew up the TARDIS in “The Big Bang”?

Now we come to mention it, what exactly is The Silence?

What is the question?

And finally, and most crucially… why was there a duck pond with no ducks in “The Eleventh Hour”?

Doctor Who star Matt Smith wants a new uniform


Matt Smith, the eleventh actor to play Doctor Who, says he would like to make some changes to his on-screen uniform.

With a girlfriend like Daisy Lowe, the model, Matt Smith has to pay heed to his personal wardrobe.He has now been thinking about a new look for Doctor Who. “I had some input initially with the bow tie and tweed,” he says of his on-screen uniform at a private view of the fashion label Acne’s collaboration with artist Daniel Silver in Mayfair.Although he feels he is “stuck” with the look he helped to create, he thinks it may be time for a spot of leather, too. “That would be good,” he says, thoughtfully.

Is time up for Doctor Who?


Its stories might be getting darker, and its plots ever more outlandish, but the Time Lord still has millions of fellow travellers. Helen Lewis-Hasteley and Andrew Harrison debate the tea-time institution

God love the BBC, but they do make some baffling decisions. In Doctor Who, they have more than a TV show, they have a national institution. So what do they do? Monkey around with its scheduling – a split series this year, and the next 13 episodes to be spread across 2012 and 2013 in some unspecified way, like it's some failed American import that no one knows what to do with. Even worse, BBC1's controller, Danny Cohen, put the blame on the showrunner, Steven Moffat, who also executive produces Sherlock. Moffat took to Twitter to respond: "The scheduling of Dr Who has got NOTHING to do with Sherlock", so I'm guessing there was a frosty atmosphere the next time the pair met.

standing in the blazing sunshine, with a barebecue fork in my hand, knowing that Doctor Who is coming on any minute”. Er wait a minute, what bloody country does he live in then?

Yeah, she'd be great. Also I'd love Eric Cantona, or Colin Firth. Colin Firth would be great but he would not do it. God, when I think about it there are so many people I would love to get in it."
