    A Doctor Who fan is embroiled in a row with the BBC after she published knitting patterns for the sci-fi drama's monsters on the internet.

    The BBC's response seems to be very fair.

    They didn't act until people started profiting from the patterns on eBay. "Mazzmatazz" should be more pissed off at that than anyone.

    Does anyone else not find the idea of an ood puppet disturbing?

    If I were Mazzmatazz I would take the opportunity to get in with the BBC, tbh.
