Shindigville

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Shindigville was a location which existed on Saturn in the 21st century.

History[[edit] | [edit source]]

The ship Rendezvous II landed on Saturn near Shindigville, carrying an important prefabricated oil rig from Earth. Just four hours after this, Captain Sam Bendine began to drive Hovertransporter A and Hovertransporter B over the "undulating sand dunes" of the crater area. Bendine relayed a message to the Shindig I Probe Team, asking them to prepare to receive equipment, as he was approaching the "dust-bowl crater". Apparently after this, test drilling would soon be able to begin, following up a recent oil strike.

Information regarding this was beamed to Unity City by Gardner Anderson. (PROSE: Oil Drill Shipped to Crater! [+]Loading...["Oil Drill Shipped to Crater! (short story)"])

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]

The establishment of the Earth colony Shindigville on Saturn was the main subject of the short-lived original prose fiction series Saturn Probe, published in TV Century 21. The only instalment to contain elements of the Doctor Who universe was Oil Drill Shipped to Crater!.
