Bad Wolf / Blaidd Drwg

Now the episode title for Ep 11 of the new Doctor Who has been reveled to be “Bad Wolf” - it looks like it’s time for some of the story threads to start tying together - As this article on Scotts Place reveals, each episode of Doctor Who has contained a reference to the phrase “Bad Wolf” - some much more subtle than others (and in the case of the one in Boom Town the reference is pointed out by the Doctor - no doubt for viewers like myself who hadn’t spotted it in all the previous episodes, but possibly also because it appeared in Welsh as “Blaidd Drwg” on the posters. So we know now that The Doctor speaks Welsh.)

We already know that the episode titled “Bad Wolf” (this title wasn’t revealed in the initial episode lists) this Saturday is set in the world of Reality TV (think Big Brother…) but how this all relates to the events in the previous episodes, and how it pans out into the final couple of episodes is still anyone’s guess at the moment, plus one of the best of the Doctor Who spin-off websites from the BBC - http://www.badwolf.org.uk/

Does anyone out there know if there’s a definitive list of the Doctor Who websites - I only know of:

http://www.whoisdoctorwho.co.uk
http://www.unit.org.uk
http://www.badwolf.org.uk

I’m not looking for the fan sites, but the ones produced officially by the BBC to support the new Doctor Who series.

    There’s a website for Henry Van Stratten’s Geocomtex at http://www.geocomtex.net/

    Do read the support section, it’s hillarious.

    BBCi seem to have been having lots of fun.

    Incidentally it shows that while the TARDIS enables Rose to understand all sorts of wierd alien tongues, it doesn’t help her with Welsh!
