At last! The Paternoster Gang comes to Big Finish!

It won’t be a surprise as such (we’ve seen all the players converging on this), but Big Finish has announced a four boxset run for the Paternoster Gang! Why it wasn’t announced at Big Finish Day, who knows! Catrin Stewart, Neve McIntosh and Dan Starkey are all back for Paternoster Gang – Heritage. Each boxset…

My thoughts are over on CultBox: Doctor Who Fourth Doctor Adventures: Series 7 Volume 2 review. +++ Message Ends +++

The Authentic Experience review

As it happens, I was in studio when Dan Starkey’s Short Trips: The Authentic Experience was recorded. My first impressions (and I mean first, this was the opening scene) of this great Sixth Doctor and Peri story were: Wow: I wish I’d thought of that Wow: isn’t Nicola Bryant an amazing voice artist? From memory director Lisa Bowerman and…

Charlotte Pollard Series Two review on Cultbox

I reviewed the long-awaited Charlotte Pollard Series Two over on CultBox. It’s an imaginative set of stories for India Fisher’s character written by Nick Briggs with James Joyce returning as Robert Buchan and Dan Starkey as the rogue Viyran. It is very different from previous Charley stories and Nick has painted a very different world as he…

Diary of River Song Series 2 review

The Diary of River Song Series 2 sneaked into the December 2016 release schedule to add to our Christmas fun, and what a pleasure it was. Better in many ways than Series 1, this time River meets two classic era Doctors, the sixth and the seventh. This means more confusion, memory manipulation and adventure! Next stop,…

The Sontarans reviewed

The third season of Doctor Who: Early Adventures ends with The Sontarans. Simon Guerrier wrote this First Doctor story with companions Steven Taylor and Sara Kingdom. It’s action packed and rather clever. You want more? Carry on reading…

DWM 500 day

May 28, 2016 and it’s a return to the Copthorne Hotel in Slough (not Windsor, despite the name). I’d been there for a few Big Finish Days, so found it hard to resist comparing the two events, despite their natural differences. I made a few notes, took a few pictures and chat to a few…

Tenth Doctor Adventures Volume 1 full review

Following my initial review of new Doctor Who release The Tenth Doctor Adventures Volume 1 for CultBox, I’d like to give more detail as to why I think these three stories are so strong, why I believe they work and go deeper for the sheer joy of it! There will be some revealing details (aka spoilers)…

Two Peri Short Trips announced

Over on FaceBook Big Finish has announced details of two more Short Trips releases: a Fifth Doctor and Peri story by Tony Jones called Rule Book and a Sixth Doctor and Peri story written by Dan Starkey called The Authentic Experience. And yes that is me on the left at Moat Studio watching as Lisa Bowerman and Nicola Bryant brought my…

Jago & Litefoot & Strax – The Haunting reviewed

We’ve had the first all-new modern-Who series from Big Finish (UNIT-Extinction), now we get the first crossover from modern to old with Justin Richards’s tale Jago & Litefoot & Strax – The Haunting. This means the regular Jago & Litefoot crew (including Ellie and Inspector Quick) get to meet the well-dressed if strange-looking Mr Strax. Strax…
