September 30, 2016

google.com, pub-ca-pub-6067120031842370, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0 Conception As a fan of Doctor Who, the conception of the TARDIS is an interesting topic to discuss and even write about. What I will like to do is look at how the production team of the original serial chose to make the time machine/spaceship of the Doctor a TARDIS. Well, in the beginning of any television show there is brainstorming. As a result the production crew gets together and tries to decide how to give…

So, don’t feel bad about not knowing about spacesuits and Doctor Who because the first knowledge I have is of the one wore by the impossible astronaut. For the…

The Controls The TARDIS is a time machine/ spaceship from a highly developed alien race. Therefore, I believe that the controls are going to be different from anything I have seen before. Then from watching the show I find them rather earthly. LOL! Of course they are earthly, how do humans know what they should look like since they have seen alien space technology. Of course , even the Doctor needs some way to control his spaceship, whether it is…
