A post shared by Doctor Who (@bbcdoctorwho)

Story Details:

The Doctor and River Song. Their lives are tangled, complex, intertwined. But this Doctor doesn't do domestics, and for once, River might have her work cut out. With time and space against them, these lovers are star-crossed in more ways than most.

For the final release in the current series of The Ninth Doctor Adventures, the Time Lord with a war-torn past meets a very important woman from his future.

Doctor Who – The Ninth Doctor Adventures: Star-Crossed is now available to pre-order for here.

Christopher Eccleston said: "Returning to the world of the Doctor has been a great experience precisely because it has allowed me to re-explore my interpretation of the character and how he interacts with the many extraordinary beings he encounters along the way. Alex’s River was one such character and this was an interesting, challenging and enjoyable encounter for the Doctor too.”

Alex Kingston said: “This is the first time that I’ve had an opportunity to work with Chris's Doctor. It’s a challenge for River to step into his interpretation and navigate it. He’s got a different energy to any of the other Doctors – she has to work harder to engage him, to get through to him, which is great fun.”

Random Doctor Who Facts You Might Not Know, Part 48

The Eleventh Doctor and the Fifteenth Doctor once worked together in an attempt to free a woman named Nora Wicker from a time bubble, but before they could do so, Nora confided in the Eleventh and told him she wished to stay. (Audio: The World Tree)

These figures, however, gained sentience and are actually the most intelligent beings on the entire planet. (Novel: The Infinity Doctors)

Lake Abydos on Gallifrey is home to singing fish. Romana's family spent a lot of time here, and she used to swim in the water when she was young. (Audio: Neverland)

After being resurrected, the Celestial Intervention Agency allowed the Master to read up on the Doctor’s past, making him aware of what happened to Lucie, Tamsin, and Alex. (Audio: Masterplan) This also means the Master is probably aware of any major events in the Doctor’s life from before that time as well.

The Doctor once saved Peter Capaldi from a Mandrel and Peter Davison from a Krynoid. (Comic: The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who)

The Eleventh Doctor said that the TARDIS has a GPS with the voice of Davros. (Audio: Trouble in Paradise)

Some Time Tots keep rovies as pets. (Audio: No Place Like Home)

Susan was 97 when she applied to Coal Hill School. (Novel: The Time Lord Letters)

Jane Templeton was a trainee Time Lord attending the Academy. She got stranded in Ancient Egypt and lost her TARDIS, which had taken on the appearance of a shabti figure. By the time she found her TARDIS, she was in her thirteenth incarnation, and her TARDIS was so degraded that the Seventh Doctor said it should be euthanized, which would involve flying it into the heart of a star. Since she had impersonated the god Thoth, she was guilty of class 2 intervention, the punishment for which is vaporization. Instead of letting the Doctor save her, she slipped into her own TARDIS and died with it. (Audio: False Gods)

How I differentiate the different incarnations of the Doctor

First Doctor: old man goes around kidnapping teachers and getting into fisticuffs

Second Doctor: funny guy has the hots for a Scotsman

Third Doctor: gay fashion icon likes science and martial arts

Fourth Doctor: yep that's an eldritch horror

Fifth Doctor: single father struggles to make queer children get along, falls on the ground several times while trying

Sixth Doctor: gay pride flag is a bastard to people as a self defense mechanism but actually cares a lot

Seventh Doctor: man commits atrocities while teaching young women life lessons

Eighth Doctor: constantly having the worst day of his life, but at least he probably won't remember it!

War Doctor: older man becomes more and more tired of being alive

Ninth Doctor: sir please save some PTSD for the rest of us

Tenth Doctor: gradual moral degeneration combined with constantly remembering past trauma

Eleventh Doctor: baby eldritch abomination really shouldn't travel without his parents

Twelfth Doctor: badass communist rockstar says fuck the police

Thirteenth Doctor: covers up trauma with dinosaur bandaids they give out to children

PSA to all Doctor Who fans!!!

humble bundle is currently selling a collection of doctor who comics, audiobooks & tabletop RPG sourcebooks from the extended universe for incredibly cheap.

the full bundle is 36 items and features a collection of stuff from all different eras, with lots of different Doctors/characters like there's obviously a bunch of cool Big Finish stuff, some classic who-themed tabletop sourcebooks, multidoctor crossover comicbooks, etc.

it's only $18 for the whole bundle, which is insanely cheap like would be very lucky to get even one Big Finish audio for that little, PLUS it's on a pay-what-you-want sliding scale, so if you don't want to spend $18 there are lower tiers too. AND it goes to support both this blog and a charity of your choice!!! just this once everybody wins.

there's something for every doctor who fan (or even potential new fans!) especially if you're into D&D or other tabletop RPGs or looking to get into them. it's only available until November 24th so grab it whilst you can and reblog it so all your doctor who fan friends/followers can see!!!
