Surprise Crossover Of The Week
In Haven , we’re not entirely sure how Audrey and Nathan identified that skin suit in a vat of goo as former colleague Tommy Bowen. It looked more like one of those crap latex masks the Hood from Thunderbirds used to us.

Luckiest Restaurant Of The Week
A restaurant in Cardiff got an unexpected (and maybe, ultimately unwanted) advertising boost this week from clearly-still-new-to-the-world-of- Doctor-Who -fandom Jenna-Louise Coleman. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly , the actress playing new companion Clara revealed, “[Karen Gillan] sent me a message. She texted me. I was pacing around, trying to figure out a scene and I checked my phone and I just had a message from her saying kind of ‘Good luck,’ and ‘You're going to knock it out the park.’ Then she told me to eat at Woods restaurant in Cardiff. That was her Cardiff tip.” Except that now Jenna will never be able to book a table there, because it’ll be constantly rammed with Who fans all desperate for a glimpse of her in the flesh…

Those Honest Trailer guys strike again.
Portrait Of The Week
This is a portrait of William Shatner. No really. We kid you not. He’s in there. You just can’t see him. He’s hiding behind a bale. No, honestly… If you don’t believe us, maybe you’ll believe this man…

Deleted Scene Of The Week
Conan O’Brien really doesn’t know the meaning of brevity, does he? The actual Walking Dead skit is pretty good, but the build up to it is like some kind of psychological warfare…
Petition Of The Week
Although we assume there’s a legal loophole somewhere (possibly one involving an insanity clause) there’s a campaign going on to try to “Force” the US government to embark on a true Star Wars defence system. According to Sky News , “Thousands of Americans have signed a petition calling on the White House to build a Death Star. The founder of the campaign says construction of the moon-sized space station and inter-stellar weapon from the Star Wars film series will strengthen national security and create jobs. US officials will be forced to consider replicating the Death Star –complete with a laser capable of destroying a planet – if the petition gains more than 25,000 digital signatures by 14 December.”
The petition was started by a “John D”, from Longmont, Colorado, demanding that work should begin on the project within the next four years. It reads: "Those who sign here petition the United States government to secure funding and resources, and begin construction on a Death Star by 2016.”
At time of writing, they still need another 18,779 votes . We think they could be a little short to ever end up being stormtroopers…

Stupidly Big Thing Of The Week
