Dreamland is an animated Doctor Who story that will appear on CBBC, BBC Two, the red button on BBC One and the BBC Doctor Who website. Phew. That’s a lot of places.
It features David Tennant alone with new companion Cassie Rice (Georgia Moffett), and sees the TARDIS crew landing in Roswell. It’ll be six parts in all, running for a total of 45 minutes.
Pity it looks awful in just about every way.

Way back in the 80s, aliens came among us, some time during the Los Angeles Olympics, in fact. They looked like us, they pretended to be our friends.
But they turned out to be very dangerous lizard Nazis.
Let that be a warning to you.
Anyway, the mini-series that demonstrated just how you shouldn’t trust any group that wears identical uniforms and has a youth league turned out to be the most popular US mini-series in history. It naturally spawned a full series, which wasn’t very good. To be fair, neither was the mini-series. Bloody “star child”.
Never fear though, because ABC has remade the show and is going to be blasting it at you in small chunks. It stars Elizabeth Mitchell of Lost as an FBI agent, and follows what happens as alien spaceships descend over cities around the world, only to reveal ‘the visitors’, a bunch of nice looking aliens who offer universal healthcare in exchange for water.
But it turns out that maybe those nice visitors aren’t as nice as they first seem.
Here’s the first nine minutes for your enjoyment, or if you prefer, a three-minute trailer.
This week, Ali Larter bought a house in the Hollywood Hills for nearly $3 million. Slightly random that – random enough that I don’t have pictures of Ali buying any house, let alone “a 2007 Brian Murphy-designed three-story with an open floor plan with 5,500 square feet of interior space and walls of glass”.
So instead, you can have a picture of her filming the latest Resident Evil movie with Mila Jovovich and Wentworth Miller (of Prison Break) (don’t be fooled by the blonde: Ali’s gone red and is the one on the far right). Mila tweets:
Wow, just finished a scene with Ali Larter and Wentworth Miller on a skiff approaching the huge ship. To say its cold is a joke. A bitter joke.
Of course, Ali and I aren’t wearing much and to make matters worse Wenty is driving the boat himself and crashing it repeatedly! lol!
Okay, not very exciting, even if they are fighting zombies. How about this pic of Ali at the opening of a Burberry store in Toronto?
Still no? Okay, you can always watch Ali’s new documentary, The Cause with Ali Larter, which explores Feeding America (apparently 36 million Americans don’t get enough food every day, 12 million of those being children). She also takes a look at Project Peanut Butter, which tries to solve the problems of malnutrition in Africa. She has a Facebook page for it and everything.
Have you seen Ali Larter acting randomly? If so, let us know and we’ll tell everyone about it in “Random Acts of Ali Larter“
Just in case you never watched The Wire, first can I ask what’s wrong with you and tell you that you really need to get to Amazon to order the DVD box sets of all five seasons right now.
But second, have this little taster. It’s a famous scene from The Wire in which the po-lice do proper po-lice work using only one word. It’ll only give you a hint as to why The Wire is so good, but it’s fun, it’s clever, and it’ll give you at least some idea of why the show is so loved.
BTW, not safe for work.
