SciFi

Next weekend we have the Easter addition of Doctor Who "Planet of the dead" which looks a wowser.

Then a major Torchwood mini series over 5 nights called "Children of Earth".

Cant wait.

Tonight on BBC1 we will know who will be the new Dr Who, will he be a she? Will he be black?

Who would you love in the part? Me it has to be Richard E Grant.....

Who do we think it's gonna be?

If it's Paterson Joseph then I will have a problem getting Johnson from the Peep Show out of my head ('it doesn't sound normal, Mark... it doesn't smell...normal'). His acting chops would be up to it though.

Sean Pertwee following in his father's footsteps?

Jimmy Nesbitt?

Or none of the above?

How about some left fielders?

Rufus Sewell - Paul Bettany -

Will they go with an older Who? Who knows?

Dust off your dalek costume and pop along

Sci-fi fanatics have been invited to help break the world record for the largest ever gathering of Daleks. Skip related content

The National Space Centre in Leicester said it is staging the record attempt to celebrate the 45th anniversary of Dr Who's stair-hating baddies.

It has joined forces with Project Dalek and the Dalek Builders' Guild for the bid on Saturday, and more than 40 people in Dalek costumes are already confirmed to attend.

The current record is held by the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry with a frightening 70, said the centre.

National Space Centre spokeswoman Malika Andress reassured any potential record-breakers, saying: "The National Space Centre is completely Dalek-accessible."

She said Guinness World Records will count an individual as a Dalek if they are recognisable as one of the stars of the long-running BBC TV series.

My favourite children author Eoin Colfer has been given permission from the widow of Douglas Adams to write another sequel to Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy bringing back Arthur Dent et el.
