Christmas Treats!

The BBC Press Release today announced their Who schedule for Christmas Day, or Cybermans Day, as eyeofhorus are calling it! First of all, is the Christmas special, The Next Doctor:

It's Christmas Eve in 1851 and Cybermen stalk the snow of Victorian London, in this special Christmas edition of Russell T Davies's Bafta Award-winning time-travelling drama. When the Doctor arrives and starts to investigate a spate of mysterious deaths, he's surprised to meet another Doctor, and soon the two must combine forces to defeat the ruthless Miss Hartigan. But are two Doctors enough to stop the rise of the CyberKing?

David Tennant stars as The Doctor, David Morrissey as The Doctor and Dervla Kirwan as Miss Hartigan. This episode also features Velile Tshabalala as Rosita.

Followed by that will be highlights from this year's first ever Doctor Who Prom, including the mini cutaway scene, Music Of The Spheres!

Missing Polo?!

A researcher, Damian Finucane, believes he has found all 7 parts of the first Doctor serial, Marco Polo. He believes they are located in Thailand, and were most likely shipped there when the BBC sold the episodes for transmission in Thailand. A cash reward is being offered to whoever finds the missing episodes. He said...
"We don't mind if you have them on VHS or on film, and we don't care if it has been dubbed into Thai. We just need to find them. Doctor Who has great historical and cultural value - the missing episodes are a lost heritage."
All TV studios in the area have been searched and Finucane has searched the National Film Archive of Thailand, but with no luck.
