The TARDIS House

TARDIS House

So how did you like “The Doctor, The Widow & The Wardrobe”? Confession: I have not seen it, but by the looks of it, people had different reactions to the Doctor Who Christmas special. It’s not that viewers hated it, but if what I have read is any indication, the special was not astoundingly memorable (as I am sure many had hoped it would be). In any case, I am pretty sure that this woman from Glasgow did not care all that much if this year’s Doctor Who Christmas special did not blow her away. She is already a hardcore Whovian, who has gone all the way to prove just Read more »

What the TARDIS Really Looks Like

What the TARDIS Really Looks Like

We all know Doctor Who‘s TARDIS is “bigger on the inside.” A lot bigger. Even though all we’ve ever seen is the control room, the show has told us forever that there’s a vast world inside the TARDIS with endless rooms, halls, and equipment. (A recent episode, “The Doctor’s Wife,” finally showed us some interior hallways, but no other rooms.) Yet all we’ve ever seen of the TARDIS’ exterior is its construct, the blue Police box. Here’s a look at what’s really in there. Read more »

Scifi Ikea Manuals

Scifi Ikea Manuals

I’m just nuts over these Ikea manuals. They’re not real of course, but anyone who’s ever put together a piece of Ikea furniture will recognize the smiling, line-drawn character, the list of materials needed to build, and the wordless, step-by-step instructions. With tongue firmly in cheek, CollegeHumor put together these Ikea manual parodies of famous objects from science fiction movies and TV. I love them all, but my favorite has to be the TARDIS, because of the Fez. Fezzes are cool, you know. Like bow ties. Read more »

Hand-Knit Tardis Blanket

Hand-Knit Tardis Blanket

Doctor Who is all over the place again, and fans are definitely happy about it. While this is not about the new Doctor Who trailer or anything like that, you just might fancy getting your hands on the creation of hedoknitstic, who posted some really nifty photos of a hand-knit afghan blanket on Flickr. For those of you who are still “enjoying” the cold in certain parts of the world, then there is no better blanket to have than this one. You don’t even have to turn your computer on to see Tardis – just wrap yourself up in this warm (or so it looks) blankie and you’re all set. Read more »

It’s Bigger On the Inside

It’s Bigger On the Inside

Can anyone really explain why Doctor Who‘s TARDIS time machine is a humble police box on the outside, but a sprawling scifi loft on the inside? I’m an avid fan of the BBC revival, and I do remember mention of some mumbo jumbo about the TARDIS‘ interior being in a different dimension. But on the whole, it seems to be one of those “just go with it” concepts that we viewers are better off not pondering too hard. Here in the real world, it’s impossible to make something bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. Which is why crafty LEGO builder “Mr. Xenomurphy” fashioned the interior of Read more »

Available at Geeky Clean for just $7 here’s a description of the TARDIS soap: Read more »

Buy Your Own Tardis. You Won't Be Able to Timetravel but It's Still a Tardis!

Buy Your Own Tardis. You Won't Be Able to Timetravel but It's Still a Tardis!

I really must be desperate right at the moment because chances that within the next 90 seconds you bunch are going to exterminate me are highly likely. Fact is that I am going to agree with Stephen Fry. I know this doesn’t happen often but last week the man bag carrying ‘geek’ was bang on when criticised the national religion institute The Beeb for their religion Sci-fi series Doctor Who. The only drama the BBC will boast about are Merlin and Doctor Who which are fine, but they’re children’s programmes. Here at FG HQ we love to ignore the Doctor (hey stop digging my iPlayer logs!) just because although the Read more »
