Doctor Who Online (abbreviated to DWO by its users) is a UK-based news, information, and forum site dedicated to the British science fiction television programme ''Doctor Who''. The website was created by actor and Science Fiction fan Sebastian J. Brook. ==Main site== The site was founded as ''Doctor Who: The REGENERATIVE website'' in 1996 as a site for fans to find out news and guides for the show whilst it was off the air. A review of the website by BBC Radio 2's Miles Mendoza described it as 'one of the most popular and longest established (Who sites )'.〔(Miles Mendoza's Website Of The Day ), Retrieved 2007-03-30.〕 The leading UK Science Fiction magazine, SciFiNow cited the site as 'the web's premiere Doctor Who site'.〔SciFi Now Magazine: Issue #34 - http://www.comparethedalek.com/scifinow-28-10-2009.jpg〕 When it launched in 1996, there was no current series of ''Doctor Who'' and the show was not shown in a regular cycle; because of this the website detailed when previous episodes were to be repeated on television, on channels such as UK Gold. The original website had regular features including news, episode guides, magazine releases (often featuring ''Doctor Who Magazine'') and convention information. In 2000, the website changed its name to Doctor Who Online in response to former Doctor Tom Baker, who suggested the name would suit the website better. Many of the features the website used to have, such as the News section, still remain. The news section of the Doctor Who Online website has regular news contributors who help to document ''Doctor Who'' broadcast and merchandise announcements. The section also includes news from spin-off shows ''Torchwood'' and ''The Sarah Jane Adventures''. A regular feature on the website is the Doctor Who: DWO Whocast Podcast,〔(Doctor Who: DWO WhoCast )〕 which was started in April 2006. The podcast's hosts have included Trevor Gensch, Tony Gallichan, M M Gilroy-Sinclair, Marty Perrett, James Rockliffe, Tom Attah and, more recently, Sebastian J. Brook and Paul Wilson who are back in the role after two years away from it. In November 2010, Doctor Who Online teamed up with Blendtec for a Doctor Who Will it Blend Doctor Who special, in which DWO Editor, Sebastian J. Brook and Blendtec C.E.O, Tom Dickson, attempt to blend an Ironside Dalek action figure. The video has proved popular on YouTube with over 200,000 views so far.〔Will it Blend?
