From the opening shots of the film you know you’re in for something special with Wyvern Hill, as director Jonathan Zaurin gives us snippets of… something. Something sinister, something torturous, something evil, that’s happening to a handful of terrified people. That footage is intercut with newsreel talking about mysterious deaths and possibly Hertfordshire’s first serial killer…
The film tells the story of Beth (a wonderful Pat Garrett), a mother in her sixties who is showing signs of early Alzheimer’s. Worried about her, her daughter Jess (Ellie Jeffreys) and son in law Connor (Pete Bird), try to find a way to help her. Together they purchase an old house on Wyvern Hill so...

From the Queen Vic to the Tardis. As Eastenders prepares to mark its 30th anniversary, we look back at its encounters with Doctor Who...
Back in the mid-eighties an actor who played "Third Assistant" in a Doctor Who story called The Savages (1966) and the director of another Doctor Who adventure, The Underwater Menace (1967), came together to create one of the BBC’s most successful television shows.
And when they got together, it was murder. Well, not quite. (Though the first episode did feature a victim who would later die, fact fans.) But what they did create was Eastenders.
Broadcast on February the 19th 1985 (in between episodes one and two of The Two Doctors), this creation of Who alumni would go on to share numerous links with the long-running science-fiction for years to come. Even its time-slot owes much to the adventures of everyone’s favourite Gallifreyan.

I guess it was only a matter of time before the Ood came back for another tussle with The Doctor. They had proven to be a big success in David Tennant's first season, thanks to their strikingly unusual appearance and the mystery of whether they were goodies or baddies. In the end, they got a rather sad exit in The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit, after they were killed in explosions, having been possessed by the Beast. Even The Doctor couldn't save them this time, the scoundrel.
So he figures that he owes them one after arriving on the Planet Of The Ood. We'd seen how they were no more than shuffling servants to human beings in the far future, serving up drinks and food like badly mutated butlers. The concept of Ood slavery was briefly mentioned, but it's dwelt upon more heavily in Planet Of The Ood – which incidentally,...

Last week I wrote that I was looking forward to the return of the Ood since I recalled them being quite creepy. I didn’t figure that they’d turn “Planet Of The Ood” into the most moving episode of this show I’ve yet seen. Who knew the orb-headed squid-reminiscent creatures had it in them? Tonight’s episode, written by Who first-timer Keith Temple, picks up the...
