Here’s a scary thought — next year it will be 50 years since Doctor Who and the Daemons was broadcast. I don’t remember being the boy who watched it very well, but I remember The Daemons. To be fair I have seen it a few times, and even after a critical rewatch of Liz Shaw’s…
Tongue in cheek, perhaps, but I’ve given my thoughts on a lockdown viewing choice for Doctor Who fans – BBC’s Death in Paradise. I wrote this for The Doctor Who Companion. The piece is: LOCKDOWN RECOMMENDATIONS: DEATH IN PARADISE. *** Message Ends ***
Over on FaceBook, Terraqueous Distributors has given September 2020 for the Unofficial Dr Who Annual 1989. Impressive turnaround as the Unofficial Master Album 2074 only just came out! What’s next? Eighth Doctor Album 1996? War Doctor? Division Doctors? I can’t wait! === Message Ends ===

This year’s Star Wars Day will be (accidentally I assume) marked with Obverse Books releasing The Robots of Death. This is the 43rd releases in the range — something to be impressed by. Fiona Moore is the writer of this particular title and it’s not the first such guide she’s written (see press release below).…
The collective talents had so much to say about The Timeless Children it had to be published in several parts. What’s more the site was taken off line for its own regeneration ahead of publication. Suffice it to say opinion is ‘mixed’ and ‘critical’. Even my own snippet in the group review is sarcastic and…
The Doctor Who Appreciation Society (DWAS) has just published the latest issue of its free to everyone on download Cosmic Masque X.

At the bottom of their press information for today’s release of The Unofficial Master Annual 2074 Terraqueous has revealed something else – work has started on planning the Unofficial Dr Who Annual 1989.
