					<description><![CDATA[GARETH David-Lloyd’s Ianto Jones was a flirt and a tease – in his own way. But nothing compares to the Torchwood actor himself. The first time I interviewed him was just before the screening of series three of Torchwood. I had been sent just the first two episodes so was blissfully unaware that Ianto would buy the farm in the third and he played on that – big time, not in a mean way (it was one of the best and most fun interviews I’ve done in a three-decade career). But he no-one could ever accuse him of breaking confidentiality … <a class="continue-reading-link" href="http://dwca.org.au/gareth-david-lloyd-gaming/"> Continue reading</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[BBC Books will publish novelisations of two classic Doctor Who stories never released in book form before. The Fifth Doctor’s Resurrection Of The Daleks and the Sixth Doctor’s Revelation of the Daleks are both set for release later in the year. Both adventures will be novelised by original scriptwriter Eric Saward, one of the show’s longest-serving script editors. These stories are the only two classic-era Doctor Who adventures not in book form already and their publication more than three decades after their first transmission will fill a long-held gap in fans’ collections. Saward, who has written for both radio and … <a class="continue-reading-link" href="http://dwca.org.au/the-daleks-are-coming/"> Continue reading</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[DUAL Doctor Who guest star Clive Swift has died at the age of 82 after a short illness. Swift was best known as the long-suffering Richard Bucket in the British comedy series Keeping Up Appearances. However, for fans of Doctor Who he will be remembered for his appearance in 1985 with Sixth Doctor Colin Baker in Revelation of the Daleks, where he played Jobel, the chief embalmer of Tranquil Repose of Necros. But Swift may be even better remembered for his second Who appearance, where he played Bayldon Copper – a clueless Earth historian and employee aboard the Titanic opposite … <a class="continue-reading-link" href="http://dwca.org.au/r-i-p-clive-swift-1936-2019/"> Continue reading</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Imagine being told you had the job of a lifetime while standing in the liquor section of your local supermarket. Doctor Who&#8217;s latest musical composer, British-Nigerian Segun Akinola, chuckles when he tells that story and you know he will be dining out on it for years to come. “I was in the wine aisle when I got this call from Chris – there was a lot of background noise,” he said. And though it was offered, there was no chance that Segun was going to take the call later &#8211; because let’s face it, when you get a life changing … <a class="continue-reading-link" href="http://dwca.org.au/knowing-the-score-we-chat-with-segun-akinola/"> Continue reading</a>]]></description>

Doctor Who Magazine confirmed this year’s Christmas Special won’t be at Christmas at all but will come to the world on New Year&#8217;s Day. The ABC is yet to announce if that will include us (though of course, that will be 2 January here anyway). “We don’t have confirmation yet on the broadcast details for the special,” the ABC publicity department spokeswoman said when contacted this morning. “But I’ll let you know once we do.” A Doctor Who Christmas Special has been a regular … <a class="continue-reading-link" href="http://dwca.org.au/new-years-day-is-special-in-2019/"> Continue reading</a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[He was a Doctor Who jack of all trades, but Derrick Sherwin, who died on 17 October at the age of 82, will be best remembered as the man responsible for creating UNIT. Producer Sherwin worked on Who writing scripts, producing the series for the transition between the second and Third Doctor, and even appeared in one scene, playing a Car Park Attendant in the 1970 story Spearhead from Space. But his real legacy came in 1968 when he created the United Nations Intelligence Taskforce or UNIT for the story The Invasion.

Hines, 73, is still a Doctor Who fan favourite, touring the world going to conventions and still working – and in fact he will be in Australia this month doing both.
