This week we got our first look at the trailer for the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary episode, and while we got to see some of the villains, we wonder if we got to see the best villains in the montage. It’s time to take the Doctor Who Villain fight to the next level, as we pit the Daleks against the Sontarans in a battle for the ages!

As the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who approaches, it is time to sit back and think about the best and worst villains of all time. While we can come up with lists (because everyone loves a list), it’s much more fun to have the baddies get in the ring in a no holds barred battle for galactic dominance. This week, it’s the Ice Warriors taking on the Yeti.
A couple of weeks ago, during a recording of Top Five, I made the prediction that in the next couple of years a stash of Doctor Who episodes once thought lost would be found. Since then, we’ve been inundated with people telling us of the newly discovered lost episodes from Nigeria. While some of you are once again claiming my prognostication record is better than Nostradamus, there is a better answer to this particular prediction than “Beware the Power of Stephen!” Nothing is ever truly destroyed.
There have been rumors swirling for over a year now about a number of long lost Doctor Who episodes being recovered from an archive in Nigeria – until now. The BBC has confirmed nine lost episodes have been recovered by Phillip Morris, director of TIEA.

The big finale for the seventh season of Doctor Who aired last night, and from the title we were promised the name of the Doctor. “Clara is summoned to an impossible conference call, alerting her that the deadly Whisper Men are closing in on Vastra, Jenny and Strax. Someone is kidnapping the Doctor’s friends, leading him toward the one place in all of time and space that he should never go. It’s a deadly trap that threatens to unravel his past, present and future…” Did you like it? Was it the best episode of Doctor Who ever, or was this…
For those of you who are dying to see the season finale of Doctor Who, I hope you pre-ordered your Blu-ray copy of the second part of season seven, as about 1,000 plus copies have been shipped early in the United States of America, which includes the yet unaired “The Name of The Doctor,” that reveals the actual name of the Doctor.
A new zombie series coming out of the UK, In The Flesh has an interesting take and new direction on the ever popular zombie genre. Setting the story post-war once a cure has been discovered, it will take the dark path following a former zombie that has been rehabilitated and is going back into normal society. The trailer, which you can see after the jump, gives a bit more and has me more than interested for a fresh zombie idea.
