BBC Needles Knitting Dr. Who Fangurl

If the boneheads at the BBC were just a tad smarter they’d offer a Mazzmatazz a licensing deal:

“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 patterns of Ood and Adipose were removed from her website after the BBC’s commercial arm complained that they breached its trademark. But the woman said the corporation was “making an example of her”. BBC Worldwide said it acted because finished figures were being sold by others on auction website eBay. It also denied threatening legal action and said it had offered to consider marketing the designs itself.”
