Brits win big at Oscars

The Brits stole the show at last night’s Oscars with the biggest wins of the night going to “The King’s Speech“.  Colin Firth won for Best Actor for his portrayal of the stammering King George, and the film also won Best Picture , Best Director (Tom Hooper) and Best Original Screenplay (David Seidler).

Another big winner representing the English was Christian Bale, who took home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role in “The Fighter”.  His acceptance speech was my favorite of the night.  Watch the video below to see him talking about his win.

Doctor Who on Sarah Jane Adventures?

The trailer for series 4 of the Sarah Jane Adventures gave fans a glimpse of a possible reunion between the Doctor and his old companion Sarah Jane Smith.  The Sarah Jane Adventures is a spin-off show from Doctor Who.

I would personally love to see how this story line would play out between the two shows, and how Sarah Jane will react to seeing the new Doctor, as opposed to the last time when he still was played by David Tennant.   Check out the short teaser trailer below.
