There used to be a thing widely circulated on the web about an (alleged) website for a company called "Pen Island" and its web address of www_penisland_com*. Other sites that might be misread were usually included. I don't recall any of them mentioning this one though.

www.doctorwhoreviews.co.uk

(*the underscores are in the web address because when I posted this on Facebook I was told that the link is unsafe, and so it may be - I'm not suggesting you click it, just recalling the existence of it.)

The Company exists. The URL is http://penisland.net (note the ".net" at the end).

And the doctor who site is certainly genuine. The owner is trying to create a unified timeline for all the audio adventures, novels and, of course, TV stories.

That's nothing. This site includes all the comics, annuals, short stories, games, etc.

That is a trolly amazing endeavour proving, as if proof were needed, that some people have way too much time on their hands. Useful reference work though for DW fans.
