9 June 2015 | EOH | Sorry for the lack of updates recently

 

Yes, we're still here.

eyeofhorus.org.uk is sorry for the lack of news updates and new content since the beginning of March 2015 but this due to important career changes that has reduced the amount of personal time that its Site Editor has been able to allocate to this 11-year old website.

Thanks for visiting and, we promise, that both news & information and new content will be drafted & uploaded this summer before the launch of DOCTOR WHO SERIES 9.

4 February 2015 | MERECHANDISE | DOCTOR WHO MAGAZINE 483

 

Cover price £4.99 or read it standing up in your local newsagents for free. Published on 5 February.

Paul Wilmshurst, director of the recent Doctor Who episodes Kill the Moon , Mummy on the Orient Express and Last Christmas , explains the challenges of working on the series, in his first major interview.

"We were all very proud of the fact that the Mummy was so scary they wouldn't put it in the series trailer," Paul tells DWM . "It's always about how far can you go? I think the old joke is true: how complicated can you make it to hold a child's attention, and how simple can you make it for adults? Can you make it scary enough for the children to be satisfied, but not too scary for the adults to be worried?"
