The End of Tardis Travels
13 March 2011
It is with deep regret that I must inform you that it is the end of Tardis Travels for the foreseeable future (this probably comes as no suprise to many). I have decided to close Tardis Travels because I no longer have the time to update the site and have lost my dedication to doing so. Tardis Travels opened just under two years ago and I have enjoyed every minute of running it. In that time we have posted over 400 news updates, interviewed Doctor Who Stars, gained over 100 followers (Google and Twitter) and received over 23,000 hits! I am very proud of Tardis Travels and hope that one day it might continue. I will leave the site open as an archive so you can view everything on Tardis Travels. I hope you continue to enjoy Doctor Who!

The Press Release Also Included a New Synopsis:
One day, nobody dies. All across the world, nobody dies. And then the next day, and the next, and the next, people keep aging – they get hurt and sick – but they never die.
The result: a population boom, overnight. With all the extra people, resources are finite. It’s said that in four months’ time, the human race will cease to be viable. But this can’t be a natural event – someone’s got to be behind it. It’s a race against time as C.I.A. agent Rex Matheson investigates a global conspiracy. The answers lie within an old, secret British institute. As Rex keeps asking “What is Torchwood?”, he’s drawn into a world of adventure, and a threat to change what it means to be human, forever.
Torchwood: Miracle Day is set to transmit in July, but no actually date has been set.
