Posters released for Doctor Who: An Adventure in Time and Space
Here are a couple of posters for the upcoming BBC TV movie about the early days of the Doctor Who series.
An Adventure in Space and Time tells the story of the genesis of Doctor Who since its first broadcast on 23 November 1963. Exploring all aspects of the longest running science fiction series to date, the special one-off 90-minute drama also looks at the many personalities involved in bringing the series to life.
Written by Mark Gatiss, it is Executive Produced by current Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat and Caroline Skinner. The single drama was commissioned by Ben Stephenson Controller, Drama and Janice Hadlow, Controller of BBC TWO.
Beatle fans recreate photo shot by Ringo back in 1964
This story has legs. Now that carload of fans photographed by Ringo Starr back when he was touring the U.S. with the Beatles in 1964 (and published in his new book, "Photograph") have recreated the shot. Ringo put out a call last week in hopes of identifying the "kids."

New Yorker streams Nick Lowe's upcoming holiday album
Check it out here.
The English singer-songwriter Nick Lowe, who is best known in the U.S. for his late-seventies hit “Cruel to Be Kind,” has kept a low profile for the past forty years, but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t kept busy. From his days producing albums for Elvis Costello—he wrote “(What’s So Funny ‘Bout) Peace, Love, and Understanding”—to his more recent work in other genres, including roots music, he’s been unafraid to try new things. His latest effort is a “Quality Street,” a Christmas album. In classic Lowe style, he gives seasonal fare a singular spin, with a few originals as well as rockabilly, New Orleans, and country versions of classics. No surprise, really, from someone who titled his first solo album, “Jesus of Cool.”
Heck yeah, I will read an ongoing Batman and Scooby-Doo comic book
...particularly if it continues to be scripted by Sholly Fisch. This sounds like fun:
As early as the second issue, you'll see not only the first-ever team-up of Scooby and Ace the Bat-Hound, but also the first-ever meeting between Mystery Inc. and the Mystery Analysts of Gotham City. As an added treat for longtime fans, I've also expanded the roster of the Mystery Analysts to include a bunch of DC's classic detective characters. One of them, in particular, is a natural fit for the Mystery Inc. gang, but I doubt anyone will see him coming.
There are lots more surprise guest stars and cameos waiting in the wings for subsequent issues too. Some of them are members of the Bat-family. Some aren't. And there are some you wouldn't believe even if I told you, which I won't.
