The Third Doctor in all his audio glory

Doctor Who: Third Doctor Adventures vol 6 review on CultBox

I reviewed Doctor Who: The Third Doctor Adventures volume 06 for CultBox and be warned — I didn’t think it was up to standard for many reasons, the bulk of which are in the review. Volume 5 worked much better in my view. It’s not possible to like everything, and as a reviewer once I…

Third Doctor Adventures vol 5 review on CultBox

The Tyrants of Logic review

I continue to catch up with belated Third Doctor reviews with the second story in The Third Doctor Adventures Volume 04. It’s the turn of Marc Platt and finally the Third Doctor gets to battle the Cybermen. It’s a strong piece of story-telling and reminds me of an article I read decades ago. Let’s chat…

Third Doctor Adventures Volume 03 review

I put together some thoughts on the highly enjoyable Third Doctor Adventures Volume 03 for CultBox. It’s two great stories from Nick Briggs and Andrew Smith with Katy Manning back as Jo Grant. Tim Treloar is in good form as the Third Doctor and it’s well worth a listen. The review is: Doctor Who: The Third Doctor Adventures…

Third Doctor Adventures Volume 2 review

Tim Treloar returns to the role of the Third Doctor in THE THIRD DOCTOR ADVENTURES VOLUME 02, a pair of stories over four discs with a fifth disc of behind the scenes material. I enjoyed the first volume, but this is better with a more confident portrayal by Tim Treloar and the part-narrative style has been dropped….
