Doctor Who : Day of the Doctor

So this is it, the 50th anniversary episode. 50 years in the making with one of the biggest actors we have ever seen playing a "forgotten"/"disowned" Doctor.

Ladies and gentleman, please get ready for the Day of the Doctor.

***SPOILERS***

F1 : Canadian GP 2013

Grand Prix of Canada 2013

Winner : Sebastian Vettel

Second : Fernando Alonso

Third : Lewis Hamilton

So after a race that I didn't watch, with a result I only kind of know I'm back with my F1 blog! A little different from the others because I'm writing it from memory of watching the race LIVE ON THE BBC (only time I'll do that all year probably) instead of having it open and reviewing it whilst writing it.

So here goes my Canadian GP review!

Doctor Who : The Name of the Doctor

Series 7 Finale

So who is Clara? What is the Doctors secret?

The episode is a lead in for the 50th anniversary story (coming to us Novermber 23rd) but with so many questions, so much to get through, what is the name of the Doctor?

***SPOILERS***

F1 : Spanish GP 2013

Grand Prix of Spain 2013

Winner : Fernando Alonso

Second : Kimi Raikkonen

Third : Felipe Massa

After a surprisingly good race last time out in Bahrain can my Spanish favorite win his home GP? Especially seeing that he hasn't been getting the best luck this series even though he is fighting his heart out!

With a Mercedes 1-2 in qualifying the race was on!

Doctor Who : Nightmare in Silver

This week Clara has been blackmailed into taking the two kids she's looking after on an adventure with the Doctor.

I'm sure this Neil Gaiman penned adventure will go well for them...

***SPOILER****

Doctor Who : Crimson Horror

Last week Clara had a tiny tour of the inside of the TARDIS, she also found out the "mystery" surrounding her and then..... Everything was restarted and she can't remember it.

What'll happen this week when they go back to Victorian England?

***SPOILER***

Doctor Who 50th Anniversary (yet another blog...)

... And expect more in the coming months!

Anyway below the cut away is some speculation based on rumors heard about what could happen in the 50th, so if you don't want to know anything about what has been seen during filming and mild spoilers (what could end up being a big spoiler if it turns out to be true) and so on don't look!

Doctor Who : Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS

Last week the Doctor helped save a test time traveler from a pocket universe whilst at the same time bringing two lovers together.... Or is that four lovers?

Not only that but the Doctor found out that the TARDIS and Clara doesn't get on....

What will happen this week when Clara gets to know the TARDIS a bit too personally?

***SPOILERS***

F1 : Bahrain GP 2013

Grand Prix of Bahrain 2013

Winner : Sebastian Vettel

Second : Kimi Raikkonen

Third : Romain Grosjean

After Alonso's win in China can his rivals hit back in Bahrain? Will Alonso be able to keep the Ferrari on top?

And when will the McLarens turn up?

MotoGP : America 2013

Grand Prix of America 2013

Winner : Marc Marquez

Second : Dani Pedrosa

Third : Jorge Lorenzo

So after the lack luster opening race in the desert of Qatar we are in Texas for the first of three American GPs. 

Marc Marquez (as you've guessed I don't like him) got his first pole in the top class in his second race, he was the youngest pole sitter could he win? (I'm writing this live so I don't know what'll be up there later ^) 

Off the line Dani got the racing line and a good start but was helped by Marquez going wide and ending up in third place. 

It doesn't take Marc long to get past Bradl (who was in second but as I'm typing this is fighting with Lorenzo who has passed him) and it does look like this circuit is a Honda circuit. Bradl starts to hold people back and you have the main three (Pedrosa, Marquez and Lorenzo) then Crutchlow and the others behind. 

Valentino gives Crutchlow some trouble but not much. In fact Vale starts to go backwards a bit whilst Crutchlow sticks to the back of Bradls bike. 

Nicky is in 10th with 19 laps to go, heart breaking a bit. 

The riders started to spread out a little, Cal went wide and ended up behind Bautista for about half a lap before coming right back at him, he was the faster bike and had lost his place as I said by going wide so it wasn't really interesting. Rossi fighting Bautista was a little interesting especially as Dovi joined in. 

The BBC commentators wanted to tell us as all about Marquez so I kind of zoned out a bit especially as not much was happening.

I'll use this period of quietness to say this. There was one point when F1 was quite boring and MotoGP was always the highlight, now it seems to be going in the opposite direction. I'm not sure why either, there hasn't been anything major in my memory that changed things up so much but it happened. Maybe it is a safety thing you see far less crashes in both MotoGP and F1 now (thank god) but it also stops the shake ups at the beginning of the race really. Everything is much more calm but in MotoGP it has also taken some of the overtaking away. Maybe it is just me, I was disheartened after Sic died and didn't watch religiously last year, hopefully it perks up later in the season.

Back to the race and it was just the same as it always had been. Marquez is right on the back of Dani, Lorenzo is falling behind a little but far enough in front of Cal at the moment. Cal is past Bradl who is having a good weekend. 

With 9 laps to go Marquez took the lead and sailed off into the sunset. 

According to our commentators this race was all about whether Marquez has the strength to win it. 

Again the race was really not much to go on, some really good battles but they lasted only for a lap or two, if there was anything long term the camera's never showed it. 

I switched off before they crossed the line mainly because I couldn't stand the Marquez love in. 

I might only have one or two more reports for MotoGP left, I'll carry on watching but I have to say if there isn't much more interesting to the season. I love MotoGP but I haven't had my heart in it for a while.

I have to say that the hype for this episode was through the roof! Everyone who had seen it told us how wonderful it was and even though the big spoiler technically was given away I have to say it was pretty damn great!

*SPOILER WARNING* For those who are still yet to see it obviously don't look any further!
