The Tardis
The TARDIS (Time and Relative Dimension in Space) TT Type 40 Mark 1 (Sexy) (The Doctors Wife) is a time machine.Bigger on the inside - transcendentally dimensional, made possible by transcendental engineering. Controlled via the dimensional stabiliser.
The Tardis has a chameleon circut which enables it to blend in with it's surroundings, unfortunately this tardis has a malfunction which the Doctor can't fix, so the Tardis is stuck in the form of a 1950's Police Box. Apart from Time travel, the Tardis has a telepathically based universal translation system for the travellers. The human form of the Tardis is called Idris who (or due to the short range guidance (relative to the size of the universe)) sometimes gets the Doctor to where he is needed.
Idris is played by Suranne Jones

Peter Capaldi – The Fourteenth Doctor?
The Scottish accent ran out clear towards the end of The Day Of The Doctor. “No sir! All thirteen!” as eyebrows narrowed.
But, according to the Daily Mirror, that was Fourteen.
They quote Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat confirming what Bleeding Cool ran earlier, that Matt Smith is not the Eleventh, nor the Twelfth but the final Thirteenth incarnation of the Time Lord that mostly goes by the name of The Doctor, including the War Doctor and the One-Hearted Rose Doctor. And that Peter Capaldi somehow breaches the natural order of things and becomes the Fourteenth Doctor…

Asked about the Christmas episode and the regeneration of Doctor Who, Moffat confirmed Matt was the 13th Doctor and told the Mirror: “The 12 regenerations limit is a central part of Doctor Who mythology – science fiction is all about rules, you can’t just casually break them. “So if the Doctor can never change again, what’s Peter Capaldi doing in the Christmas special?”

I don't like Doctor Who
"There. I said it. Despite my proud status as a TV nerd who watches all manner of genre entertainment on a regular basis, I have never liked "Doctor Who." This has been my secret shame for many years, but I can no longer keep silent. I am no Whovian, and I doubt I ever will be"...Read on

Fifty years of Doctor Who - The Man in the Box - by Jill Lepore
...a stagehand wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and black cargo pants rummages through a Tupperware storage box, making an awful clatter. He pulls out something metal and rusted, cradling in his tattooed hands the part that would roll away if you were to guillotine a robot. “This, this,” he mutters in quiet triumph, “is the head we need.”

TARDIS to appear in Holyhead on the 16th November
The week long TARDIS tour, which starts in Holyhead on Saturday November 16th, will offer fans a chance to see the time travelling police box up close. Look out for #TARDIStourWales on Twitter for the exact location
Eighth Doctor Who Paul McGann returns in Night of the Doctor
After only appearing in a single made for TV pilot in 1996, McGann was not seen again on the screen as the Doctor… until now.
Previous to ‘Night of the Doctor,’ the story of how the Eighth Doctor’s life ended and his regeneration was never told. With this minisode, that gap can finally be closed. Now we know how the Eighth Doctor sacrificed his life during the Time War and became the man needed at the time, a character now called ‘The War Doctor’ played by John Hurt (CGi’d to look young in a reflection).
Night of the Doctor sets the stage for the 50th anniversary adventure Day of the Doctor but it is a special gift to fans who have been following the program since its early days before Russell T Davies arrived and it also adds to the mythology of the new program. Not only do we have a story set during the Time War between the Daleks and Time Lords (something Moffat stated he was never interested in exploring), but we also can finally put to rest the conundrum of how the Eighth Doctor ‘died’ and answer some of the questions as to who the Doctor played by John Hurt is.

Cybershades
Cybershades were rug-like creatures with bronze Cyber-heads. Like their Cyberman superiors, they had piping like handlebars connected to their heads, except they angled diagonally like the ears of an animal.
The Cybershades had the brains of cats or dogs and were unable to speak or obey complex commands. They seemed unable to run upright. They were only seen to run on all fours or bent over low. tardis.wikia
