The Bells Of St. John — the new episode for Season 7 and you can see it with us! The Doctor searches for Clara in London, where something dangerous lurks in the Wi-Fi signals… Writer Steven Moffat described the premise, “It’s the traditional Doctor Who thing of taking something omnipresent in your life and making it sinister, if something did get in the Wi-Fi, we’d be kind of screwed. Nobody had really done it before, so I thought, ‘It’s time to get kids frightened of Wi-Fi!”
The Ark In Space – a classic episode, one of the more exciting adventures of the Fourth Doctor, played by Tom Baker. The TARDIS lands on a space station orbiting the earth in the distant future. It’s seemingly deserted, but the Doctor, Sarah Jane and Harry soon discover that they are not alone. Thousands of humans — the only survivors of the human race — are in cryogenic sleep, and while they’ve slept their ark has been invaded. A parasitic insect race — the Wirrn — have taken control and threaten the very future of mankind.
We’ll have a raffle for goodies — including some new unreleased Dr. Who tie-in novels!! We’ll have popcorn. And, of course – Sonic Screwdrivers will be served cold at the bar!!
