The movie adaption of ‘Quatermass and the Pit’ has this month been released on Blu Ray and DVD by Studio Canal on the ‘Double Play’ range.

Here at Toybox Towers we love a challenge so for the month of October we want to hear from you. If there is something you would like to see in the Toybox you can request by emailing:

The challenge starts today and runs for 2 weeks. Send your requests by 31st October. Everyone who contributes will get a Toybox mention!

As the Toybox rolls through Autumn and into Christmas there are more collections to share with you! We are back with more plastic, cardboard, stickers and madness you can imagine.

A collection of 11th Doctor products brings us right up to date, before we go back in time to revisit Weetabix boxes, Typhoo Tea promotions and toys from long ago.

This time with a CT tie in....

We're pleased to announce that the Society now has its own Facebook page.

We have added another guest - David Bailie will be attending. David was Taren Capel in 'Robots of Death' but is an established stage and screen actor with a wide range of credits to his name. More details are available by clicking the link through to Time 5.

So that's it all done with and I have to say I really enjoyed it, I guessed the ending but in all a fun episode that answered most (!) questions and included a lovely mention of the Brig too.

Here are your comments so far...

As you may already know, part one of this 1974 story, for a number of years missing from the archive, and then available only as a black and white tele-recording has been restored to colour for a forthcoming DVD release. We are pleased to announce that the episode will be previewed on the big screen at Riverside Studios, during Time 5 on 29th October 2011.

A good tale with the Cybermen tagged onto it... fun though!

Here it what you think...

Fears, faith and a mention of the Nimon!... I really enjoyed that.

Here is what you have said so far...

New Who likes to do emotion and this time I thought it did well.

Here are some of your thoughts...

I honestly thought it was a load of sentimental claptrap. I really didn't find myself enjoying it at all. I don't really know why it just didn't gel at all. The aged Amy was good but that's the best thing I have to say about it.
