The Day of the Doctor - Doctor Who 50th Anniversary!
Calling all Doctor Who fans, today is the 50th anniversary of the BBC's longest running sci-fi extravaganza and there's going to be a mammoth feature length episode of the show to celebrate!
The 50th anniversary episode will air at 7.50pm on BBC One and is going to be broadcast as part of a worldwide simulcast in over 75 countries, which is testament to just how popular Doctor Who has become! An official statement has been revealed outlining what you can expect from the Doctors greatest adventure yet...
"In 2013, something terrible is awakening in London's National Gallery; in 1562, a murderous plot is afoot in Elizabethan England; and somewhere in space an ancient battle reaches its devastating conclusion. All of reality is at stake as the Doctor's own dangerous past comes back to haunt him."
The episode will pay homage to the show's history with appearances from Tenth Doctor David Tennant and his companion Billie Piper as well as a few other special guests that are being kept under wraps, who else could be returning? It's all very exciting as the show's boss Steven Moffat has promised that this episode will change the narrative of the show in a big way, we can't wait!
If all of these celebrations have got you in the mood for some goodies, we have got a great selection of Doctor Who T-Shirts and Doctor Who gifts that any self confessed fan will fall in love with. With Christmas fast approaching this is also the perfect opportunity to browse our selection of Gifts for Geeks, we're bound to have a present that your friends and family will fall in love with!

Guest Post: 80s Movies Filming Locations in L.A.
You could say I'm a bit of an eighties nerd. I run the world's largest retro websites doyouremember.co.uk, I've written a book all about the 80s and I spend way too much time listening to 80s music and watching 80s movies. So you can probably imagine my excitement when I got the opportunity to jet off to L.A. on a mission to track down the filming locations of some of the very best movies of the eighties.
A business meeting in California gave me the opportunity to stay with some friends in San Diego for the weekend and these good and very patient friends of mine kindly agreed to spend a long day driving me hundreds of miles around L.A. hunting down cool photo opportunities.
When the good people at retro t-shirt store TruffleShuffle.co.uk heard about my forthcoming mission, they kindly agreed to give me the matching movie t-shirts to wear in each location. They have the coolest t-shirts in the world - seriously!
So at the weekend, after all the business meetings were concluded, I threw on my first 80s t-shirt and headed off in search of the first stop on our circular tour - Doc Emmet Brown's house from Back to the Future.
Next up was Elliott's house from E.T. (the Extra-Terrestrial)
The Jumpers of Christmas Past...
The world has literally gone crazy for kitsch, Cheesy Christmas Jumpers (or ugly jumpers as some people like to call them).
We have been hooked ever since Colin Firth fashioned a rather fetching Reindeer Jumper in Bridget Jones Diary, but it doesn't end or even begin there. The cult of the Christmas Jumper has reigned for quite some time now. Ever since grannies decided to take up knitting needles, keeping themselves busy with increasingly intricate, vivid, sparkly and even 3D, festive woolen fantasies, people have been either proudly flaunting this festive fashion or begrudgingly obliged to wear it at family functions.
If it seems all too familiar, you will probably recognise the deliberate fashion faux-pas from some of your favourite movies and TV shows. Remember these?
