Doctor Who Adventures Issue 214

Matt Smith's Mini US Diary

Wednesday 16 November 2010, Valley of the Gods, Utah
I arrive later than Karen and Arthur [Darvill], because I had to go on Craig Ferguson's Late Late Show in LA. He's such a huge fan. He was so welcoming. I think it's the most fun I've ever had on a chat show.

Everyone in LA tells me there's nothing here in Utah. It's pitch black, so I can't see. I just feel the long road lull as we wind through endless American desert. Utah has to wait till morning.

And boom - from my motel, I look out and see the red-coloured desert, and I'm in awe. It's majestic. I go get pancakes. Karen is on the make-up wagon. "Oh my God, oh my God, it's amaaazzzing," she buzzes. I agree.

As the day winds on and we bemoan our jetlag, I'm excited about this afternoon. Karen is being chased by a helicopter, and we have big black stately cars kicking up the dusty desert in a chase. This is where Forrest Gump stopped running, where Indiana Jones found the Temple of Doom, and now where the Doctor faces his darkest hour.

But for now - I'm sprawled on the bonnet of the coolest car [a bright red 1959 Edsel Villager Station Wagon], wearing a Stetson. Yeah, the Doctor wears a Stetson now. Stetsons are totally cool.

It was my idea to lie on the car, by the way. The script said the Doctor was leaning against it, but the Doctor is always leaning, it's such a Doctor thing to do, so I thought, "A car this cool? I have to lie on it!" To my surprise, they didn't say no.

4 DAYS TO GO

Only 4 days to go till the premier of Doctor Who so I've posted something which I just noticed right now

In Sarah Jane Adventures series 1 The Lost Boy Part One the Pharos Institute was filmed the same place as Doctor Who series 1 episode 4 and 5 with the Slitheen and thats also a connection to the episodes because the episodes both feature the slitheen.

Because inside the Pharos Institute is the same place as where the Slitheen dressed up as the mayor of London was talking to a man who got turned into a Slitheen and he kept on farting.

Doctor Who: The Impossible Astronaut Trailer 2!

Doctor Who Team Talk About the Silence

Steven Moffat talks about the Silence and what he thinks about them and where they got their idea from to create them.

"If I’d seen them when I watched TV as a boy, I’d have had to peep through my fingers. They are going to become as iconic as the Doctor’s most enduring foes, the Daleks, and even more dangerous and harder to exterminate. . . .

"They are pretty repulsive, but it’s their history that will really chill people. They could turn up anywhere and everywhere, and they’ve been undermining and controlling us for thousands of years but we don’t realise it."

But how has this effect been so effectively executed?

Their look has been carefully created for maximum scare-factor, with dark suits, white shirts and black ties made by Doctor Who costume designer Barbara Kidd. The suits, in particular, are a nod to the Men In Black movies, which starred Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones as smartly attired U.S. Government agents fighting alien invaders.

The Silence’s hands and heads — created by Neill Gorton, principal designer at Millennium Effects, the company which make all the Doctor Who monsters — are the only features that
betray the fact they are aliens. Made from Latex foam, the hands are bony-white and crumpled, while the triangular faces have no mouths, but human eyes sunk deep into the skull with traces of ears and a nose.

Steven Moffat said that he thinks the history of the silence will make people more involved.

"Humans will have been subconsciously aware of The Silence for many centuries, and that awareness will have manifested itself in paintings such as The Scream."

There was also asked how to you make such simple creatures be feared by everyone so much?

"Doctor Who has the ability to play upon people’s fears, often carried from childhood. What made that sound under the bed, that shadow at the back of a cupboard, that sound on the floorboards at night?"
