Everyone's opinions vary as to what they find sexually desirable but I think it's safe to say a lot of people find David Tennant and Benedict Cumberbatch attractive. That's why it's surprising to hear the BBC doesn't agree.

If there's one thing that's certain about an episode of Doctor Who with both Captain Jack and River Song in it, it's that it would be 90% made up of absolutely shameless flirting, and 10% made of the Doctor being exasperated. But don't get crazy yet, Whovians, John Barrowman and Alex Kingston aren't working together for the first time on Who. They'll both be appearing on Arrow later this season, Barrowman in his recurring role, and Kingston as (probably) the original Black Canary. Barrowman himself tweeted this picture this weekend.

Arrow isn't a great show by any stretch of the imagination, but I respect it for what it's trying to do and have some hopes that eventually it will succeed. And let's be real: I also enjoy the near constant references to obscure facets of the DC universe and it's liberal borrowing from the Batman canon for villains and supporting characters. It's those bits that keep the nerd in me casually watching it in the background of my other activities. With the addition of Alex Kingston to the cast, however, the show's going to pique the interest of an entirely different fandom.

As we promised a few days ago in our Doctor Who Season 7 premiere photo gallery, we've got three very special interviews from our time spent with stars Matt Smith and Karen Gillan, as well as new Executive Producer Caroline Skinner at the event. Since Gillan is a fellow redhead, I've decided to let her go first! See what she had to tell us about her own time travel preferences, how she feels about leaving the long-running sci-fi series, and who she thinks could make a great female Doctor.

It was officially (finally) announced today that Doctor Who returns to our lives in less than two weeks. As if that wasn't enough to freak out about, we also have this new trailer for season seven. As one can expect with Who, the trailer is an interesting blend of hilarity, action, and impending doom. Oh, and puns. It's also the first time this season I've heard anyone within the story mention something about the Ponds leaving voluntarily, which bodes well with my prayers that they won't be killed off in some horrible fashion.

Shooting continues on Doctor Who season seven, and after a wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey romp through New York City, the cast and crew are back in Cardiff, and joined by River Song herself, Alex Kingston. We hear there is something to do with River posing as a mobster, so proceed with caution because there might be spoilers ahead, sweetie!

There's been extra spoiler arguments lately due to recent happenings on The Walking Dead. Hell, even AMC accidentally spoiled something on their website. We do our best here at The Mary Sue to make sure we don't spoil anything for you but we all make mistakes sometimes. (When debating a spoiler just yesterday, Jamie asked me if a baby could have been conceived and born since the time the event took place. That's her rule.) But for those who blatantly spoil entertainment for the rest of us, a few Hollywood actors are here to lay down the law. Nelsan Ellis (Lafayette from True Blood), Andre Royo (Bubbles from The Wire), Julie Benz (Rita from Dexter), Michael Trucco (Anders from Battlestar Galactica), Sarah Wayne Callies (Lori from The Walking Dead), and Masi Oka (Hiro from Heroes) present the spoiler rules. The only missing thing from this video? Alex Kingston's River Song. (via College Humor)

Everybody knows that Craig Ferguson is the biggest nerd on Late Night television (sorry, Jimmy, but you know it's true), so it should come as no surprise that when he had Alex Kingston on last night to talk about the recently released Like Crazy, the do absolutely no such thing and just start talking about steampunk, Neil Gaiman, and how Matt Smith smells. Enjoy. Previously in Craig Ferguson

You've probably inserted yourself into a Jane Austen novel once or twice (or a hundred) times in your life but what would you actually do if you literally wound up in one? This trailer for Lost in Austen shows us we'd probably muck everything up. For those not in the know (like me), Lost in Austen was a 2008 British mini-series. The synopsis is as follows: "Amanda, an ardent Jane Austen fan, lives in present day London with her boyfriend Michael, until she finds she's swapped places with Austen's fictional creation Elizabeth Bennet." Hilarity ensues of course. Written by Guy Andrews it stars Jemima Rooper in the starring role and Doctor Who's Alex Kingston as Mrs. Bennet! Oh and, in case you were wondering, it's on Netflix instant watch. (via io9)

While speaking to the media in Glasgow, Scotland, John Barrowman said that after Matt Smith decides to call it a day and regenerate into the 12th Doctor, perhaps a woman should take the TARDIS controls on Doctor Who. He's even offered to put on a dress and do it himself. And once John Barrowman stops saying awesome things, we will stop posting them. (Dear John Barrowman: Never stop saying awesome things. Never.)
