Rev's Up! - Starburst Magazine's Bluebox Podcast's discretionary e-mail contributor Hullo Porro brings us his review of Doctor Who - The Time of the Doctor -

 

"This was a long haul for the Doctor – the oft used Terrence Dicks style description that Matt is an Old man in a Young body was lived out here with the Doctor aging, allowing Matt smith to really show off the skills that have made him one of the most enigmatic Doctors to grace the TARDIS.  Jon Pertwee may have had a young old face, but Matt Smith had young old grace!."

Fans can't have failed to notice the release of an official photo from the Beeb that shows a wooden Cyberman!.  Now given The Moffs love of 80's Doctor Who with references to Tegan and The Valyard in the most recent series, could it be that this "Timberman" is a tribute to both the race that lead to the  destruction of pixie toed maths genius Adric and the acting skills of 4th and 5th doctor TARDIS apprentice Matthew waterhouse?
