Last year we faced the prospect of a Disneyfied, Johnny Depp-starring Doctor Who movie. That bullet was dodged, but now there’s a new reason to be afraid.

I’m not sure why these videos have turned up now, because everyone involved is still alive and blackmailable, but here they are.

Miracle Day happens in March 2011. The Doctor is supposed to die in April 2011. How is this possible?

No spoilers here, if you’re in the U.K. and you’ve been good and won’t see this episode till tonight, when it finally airs on BBC One. There are no spoilers because there’s pretty much no way to spoil this episode: it’s all setup… all the setup we’ve already heard about.

It’s really lovely to see all the affection they and host Caitlin Moran have for the show and the characters, and to hear them talk about it in a funny, intelligent way…
