Ed Brady: It's very sad to have learned the news of Nicholas Courtney's passing. His character of the Brigadier was a good friend of the Doctor and, as an actor, he was a good friend of Doctor Who the programme and its many loyal followers.

Alan Stevens: I first met Nick Courtney at a DWAS convention in 1983 called Interface 3, an event themed around the Jon Pertwee era of Doctor Who.

We're delighted to say that our brand new, and totally unique, feature "The Celestial Archive" is ready to go.

It will be live on Saturday, so do check back then to see the first category "Voices From The Past".

We're pleased to say that The Celestial Archive is scheduled to go live in a fortnight's time on Saturday 12th February. Don't miss it!

We're delighted to announce a major new feature for the DWAS Website.

More of your thoughts on the 2010 Christmas Special.

Andrew Ryan: I have cast my vote on the DWAS website. I voted for AWFUL.

I looked at the clock at 6:10 wondering how much more of this I had to suffer before it was over. The clock hands moved around very slowly.

The first couple of reviews are in, and they're not very positive..........

Mike Basil: Doctor Who is known to be extravagant. But A Christmas Carol is wrongfully over the top.
