Doctor boo hoo

David Tennant has announced he will leave Doctor Who.

Is this is a sad day for Doctor who fans?

DT says,"When I was a kid, I loved Doctor Who, I grew up with it. For me, it was the most exciting time when the Doctor changed."

Ry Ter says, "Doctor boo hoo."

Mice one

Scientists have developed purple tomatoes which they hope may be able to keep cancer at bay.

The fruit are rich in an antioxidant pigment called anthocyanin which is thought to have anti-cancer properties.

The tomatoes were created by incorporating genes from the snapdragon flower, which is high in anthocyanin.

The study, published in Nature Biotechnology, found mice who ate the tomatoes lived longer.

The speed of Hound

The British team that holds the land speed record is planning to go even faster.

RAF pilot Andy Green intends to get behind the wheel of a car that is capable of reaching 1,000mph (1,610km/h). Known as Bloodhound, the new car will be powered by a rocket bolted to a Eurofighter-Typhoon jet engine.

"He'll be travelling at the speed of Hound," says Ry Ter.

The Astoria Theatre, in Charing Cross Road, will soon be knocked down for the city's £16bn Crossrail project – making way for work on a huge extension of Tottenham Court Road station, which is a central part of the scheme to link Maidenhead in Berkshire and Shenfield in Essex, via Heathrow airport and central London.

"Final curtains for the PASTORIA," says Ry Ter.
