The day’s Who news

Hugh Quarshie

  • There’s an interview with Louise Page, the Doctor Who costumer who created David Tennant’s ‘look’, over at Ain’t It Cool News.
  • The Doctor has been named an official English icon by the great British/English public in a project to celebrate England’s heritage. I’m not sure what Messrs McCoy and Tennant make of that. Or BBC Wales for that matter.
  • Hugh Quarshie is to appear as ‘Solomon’ in a two-part Doctor Who story. You may know him from Holby City, Star Wars: The Phantom Menace or possibly even the early 90s version of The Tomorrow People.

    I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
