The Day of the Doctor to be Shown in Cinemas in 3D

The 50th Anniversary episode Doctor Who comes to your television/laptop screen on November 23rd, and by all accounts it's gonna be a right doozy. 

(Take a deep breath) Somehow not content with being the anniversary show of one of Britain's longest running and most dearly held TV shows, and dissatisfied with being the first episode in the modern Doctor Who franchise to feature a team-up between the current Doctor and a past incarnation, AND finding the idea of starring screen legend John Hurt a bit on the underwhelming side, "Day of the Doctor" has gone and powered itself up one more level.

RIP Sir David Frost

Legendary broadcaster Sir David Frost died today aged 74. He was aboard the Queen Elizabeth to deliver a speech this weekend and is believed to have suffered a heart attack.

You might remember Sir David from the film Frost/Nixon, when he was played by Michael Sheen, but he also played himself in a number of TV shows over 5 decades, ranging from the serious stuff like his interviews with Richard Nixon (the Nixon in Frost/Nixon obviously, who's also dead) through his topical morning show Breakfast with Frost which ran for 12 years, right the way back to his work as a comedy writer in the 70's and 80's.
