INCOMING TRANSMISSION: His Majesty The Doctor


Intercepted images from two DOCTOR WHO television specials.

On the left, The Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) tells Ood Sigma in the 2009 Christmas special "The End of Time, Part 1" about accidentally marrying Queen Elizabeth.

On the right, The Tenth Doctor proposes to Queen Elizabeth during a botched attempt to lure out a Zygon in the 2012 50th anniversary special "The Day of the Doctor." He ends up marrying her with The War Doctor (John Hurt) and The Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith) present.

That would mean, in The Tenth Doctor's timeline, the events of The Day of the Doctor" occurred between "The Waters of Mars" (November 2009) and "The End of Time" (December 2009). Of course, The Tenth Doctor has no memory of this after going back to his timeline at the end of the 50th anniversary special.

INCOMING TRANSMISSION: Graham Norton Star Trek special


THE GRAHAM NORTON SHOW - 1305

Chris Pine, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Kim Cattrall, and Bonnie Tyler join Norton on the May 4th, 2013 episode.

Apparently, Pine fans are called "Pine Nuts" and Cumberbatch's fans are called "Cumberbitches." Both stars were present to promote STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS.

"He kissed one of my bitches!" the Sherlock star shouted as Pine swooped in on one of his fans. That must be why Cumberbatch is seeking revenge on Captain Kirk in the upcoming Star Trek sequel.
