Blink is the Doctor Who episode with the weeping angel statues.

Scared the tits off everyone.

Must have missed that one. I got bored of that, errrr, I've forgotten her name again... "The lovely black girl", erm, wasserface. Yeah. Anyway, yeah, I got bored of her. She was annoying.

Maybe Billie can kill Catherine Tate.

It's MARTHA Aaron, MARTHA. :)
And she's not really a main character in Blink.

Yeah, isn't it meant to be just the one (or two) episode(s) though?

See, I can't even remember her name, that's how poo the character was.

My theory, the BBC quickly realised their mistake in casting her (or indeed having that particular character at all), so stuck in all these others as well. And, as you suggest, put her firmly in the background in that episode.

KYLIE Minogue is set to solve a years-old Doctor Who mystery – she IS the Tardis!

Who buffs reckon the pop princess’s appearance as waitress Astrid Perth in a Christmas special cracks an ancient code.

Astrid is an anagram of Tardis, while Perth means “part” in Welsh, where the show is filmed – so her name translates as “part Tardis”.

And Kylie, 39, exits the BBC sci-fi hit by spinning into space – as the Tardis is frequently seen doing.

A BBC source said: “Viewers have often been told the Tardis is a living organism.

“But mystery has always surrounded what it is and what gives it its powers. The elements we know about Kylie’s appearance all point towards her being the Tardis.

“The fact Kylie had a hit called Spinning Around is an added irony.” But as usual with the show, fans will be left guessing the whole story.

Meanwhile, a scene at the end of the last series – in which a female hand picked a ring out of the Master’s ashes – has sparked rumours the character returns next series as a WOMAN.

But to add to the mystery, there are suggestions that John Simm – who played the Master – returns in the New Year.

...please tell me its a joke?

More Martha!

Relax - she's coming back, and branching out too...

While the final episode of Series Three, screened last Saturday , saw The Doctor's companion Martha leave to care for her devastated family, and to break the cycle of unrequited love she feels for The Doctor, the production team has now confirmed that the character is set to make a triumphant return in the fourth series.

Freema Agyeman is also set to join the cast of Torchwood, where she will continue to play the character in three new episodes before returning to Doctor Who in the middle of the fourth series.

As Doctor Who's Executive Producer and head writer, Russell T Davies notes: "Series three has gained outstanding reviews and Freema has been a huge part of that success, gaining rave notices for her portrayal of Martha. Now we are taking the character of Martha into brand new territory with a starring role in Torchwood".

"I can't wait to start filming on Torchwood and the new series of Doctor Who," said Freema. "It's a huge new challenge for me and I'm delighted Russell has decided to expand the character of Martha Jones.'"

The new announcement leaves a vacant space in the TARDIS. A new companion for The Doctor, who will join the new series for the entire 13 week run, will be announced shortly.

Laughing out loud The sun tv biz get's information right 8 times out of ten.

Here is what Catherine Tate said:

Catherine Tate is axing her sketch show, saying she doesn’t want to be dogged by her catchphrases forever.

She also said she’s finding it tough to come up with new ideas after three series.

Tate, who is joins Doctor Who in its next run, says her Christmas special will be the last ever Catherine Tate Show.

‘It's hard to keep coming up with ideas,’ she told the Mirror. ‘And I'd like to stay in people's good graces, rather than, “Oh no, she's not doing another series of that, is she?”

‘Nothing would make me want to disassociate myself with my show, but I am not going to box myself in.

‘I don’t want to be doing a play, and have people thinking I'm going to wink and go, “How very dare you!”

‘I started as an actor - and that’s what I am.’

Kylie being a part of the Tardis is 'The' most ridiculous nonesense I've heard. Sorry thats me judging before seen it but come on how can it possibly work? its just bollocks
