Featuring Daleks, Weeping Angels and more the trailer borrows heavily from the new Doctor Who artwork – or maybe it’s the other way round! – but the trailer does offer a little more insight as to how Matthew Smith will play the 11th incarnation of the Time Lord.

Meanwhile, The Sun newspaper report comic actor James Corden is to make an appearance in the show but insiders have refused to let slip whether Corden – star of Gavin & Stacey – will play a friend or foe of the Doctor

Amadeus Cho is to get his own miniseries says DigitalSpy.

If you don’t know who Amadeus Cho is, he is the sidekick of the Incredible Hercules and the ‘seventh smartest person in the world.’ In

In the miniseries, to be called ‘Heroic Age: Prince of Power’ and based on the Marvel Comics characters, Cho will be seen journeying across the Greek, Nordic, Hindu and Egyptian mythos as he wrestles to control the power he has inherited from Hercules and battles sone old-time Hulk foes.

To be written by Fred Van Lente and Greg Pak, the series will debut in May. Meanwhile, Newsarama have an interview with the pair, where they detail the series in finer point.

If it has already happened to you, you’ll no doubt have been embarrassed when it happened. So, spare a thought for Gillian Cooke of the UK’s female Bobsleigh team when, preparing for her team’s run, she split her spandex leggings.

See for yourself…

Both artists have performed the song.

Is everybody happy?
knock, knock, knock, knock
You can’t come in
knock, knock, knock
You can’t come in

You’re wondering now,
What to do, now you know this is the end
You’re wondering how,
You will pay, for the way you did behave

2. Twitter reviews of Edinburgh Fringe/Festival acts #edfest

This year the Edinburgh Festival and the Fringe Festival that carries on in karmic chaos around it are making great use of Twitter. Rather; they’re making use of Twitter and all the lovely festival goers are happily tweeting away.

We’ve done the same. A quick email around the office was all that it took to whisk up some micro-blog reviews.

The Dark Party – Sadistically fantastic ^JD

Ah JD. He always gets to the point quickly.

Colin Hoults Carnival of Monsters

If you’re missing the BBC’s Psychoville already, check out Colin’s Hoults new show, with its barely hinged oddball characters bouncing around in an everyday world of bus journeys and karate classes, it has more than a hint off the League of Gentlemen about it. It genuinely manages to unsettle when it breaks through the 3rd wall and involves the audience – but it’s also genuinely, almost effortlessly funny. I guarantee you will see this show on BBC3 a couple of years from now, or I’ll eat my hat (a sinister undertakers top hat, of course). Rubbish poster though. Seriously. ^JZ

Ah. JZ. Not one for always getting to the point so quickly! Okay; we know this is too long for a single tweet but we didn’t want to act as censor. We’ll abridge this later for the tweeting!

Best of Scottish Comedian of the Year

If your Scottish and love comedy, this event is for you. It interactivity with the crowd, snug venue makes it’s a real personal laugh. Watch out for up and coming comedian Wee Man; a Glaswegian NED. ^MT

Sage words from ^MT on this one. If you want to know about Glaswegian NED comedians then ask him.

Marcus Brigstock – Godcollar – brilliant! Will ensure you look at putting women in bags in a completely different light in the future. ^RG

Readers may also know RG as the one and only Cashzilla!

Die Roten Punkte – Pleasance – Over The Road Two

Comedy punk-rock siblings Astrid and Otto perform their Robot/Lion tour which is entertaining but not hilariously funny. The fake German accents irritate quickly. ^RF

Good ol’ ^RF tried to sneak this one in after the post was published. Fear not! We can haz edit button.

Lucy Porter – Fool’s Gold – Porter at her best. I can’t think of any other Fringe show that talks so wisely about polar bears. ^AG

The last one from yours truly. I’m afraid I can’t comment on the polar bears any further for risk of spoilers.

Got your own twitter reviews from the Edinburgh festivals? Tweet them to us at @blogsout and we’ll post another batch!
