I'm sorry to bother you with this but is there by any chance a blog like this for facts that only include New Who?

There is! A vast collection of definitely true facts about New Who can be found here. (And you should submit some facts to them.)

Fact #74

There has long been an argument globally that a message of materialism and commercialism is usurping the spiritual tradition and meaning of Christmas.

This is wrong.

The spiritual tradition and meaning of Christmas is in fact being usurped by the annual Doctor Who special.

Fact #54

The casting for the Series 2 episode 'Love and Monsters' took almost as long as the filming for the entire series.

It was that difficult to find someone who was just a face coming out of a block of pavement.

Fact #52

There was a plan for a Doctor Who / Harry Potter crossover, however this idea was shelved after it was discovered that the TARDIS could not materialise within the grounds of Hogwarts.

Fact #29

The lone Dalek in the 2005 episode Dalek was voiced by Nicholas Briggs, as are all the Daleks (and Cybermen for that matter).

But the person inside the Dalek, controlling the movements, was none other than future Dalek and companion, Jenna-Louise Coleman.

Fact #13

Matt Smith wasn't acting when he opened Door Eleven in The God Complex. The BBC thought it would be more effective to have something he truly feared standing behind the door, so as to produce a more convincing display from him.

They chose Steven Moffat, wearing black hooded robes, holding a scythe in one hand and pictures of each and every character he had killed off in the other, and grinning.
