Wanderers in the 4th Dimension: Blink

This week, the Wanderers join Sally Sparrow in modern-day England, where they find their lives may depend on following the Doctor's urgent advice: Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't blink!

QotW: If the Doctor were to leave a secret message for you as an Easter egg on your favorite DVDs, what are the top three titles he should put it on to maximize your chances of finding it?

Wanderers in the 4th Dimension: Human Nature/The Family of Blood

This week, the Wanderers join the Doctor and Martha in England in 1913!  The Doctor is hiding from alien pursuers, working as a schoolteacher in a boys' school with Martha posing as his maid.  Even his biology and memories have been rewritten in service of the ruse, but somehow it's not enough -- what will the now-human John Smith do when killer aliens come a-calling?

QotW: If you were the Doctor and needed to unleash your fury to punish a villain without killing them, what would the punishment be?

Wanderers in the 4th Dimension: 42

This week, the Wanderers join the Doctor and Martha in on a ship in deep space where something has gone horribly awry -- the ship is plummeting toward a nearby star, with only 42 minutes left to repair it and escape!  But someone -- or something -- has other ideas!

QotW: If you could choose a trivia question that people had to answer correctly in order to open a door and gain access to the restricted area behind it, what question would you choose?
