It’s a return to Skaro for the First Doctor, in March 2020. Big Finish has released details of The First Doctor Adventures Volume 4, with the return to Skaro and a new historical story. Details below.
Should Big Finish remake Unearthly Child (and even Daleks)?
Listening to the January 2019 First Doctor Adventures release, a thought struck me: what if Big Finish remade Unearthly Child? Is it a mad idea? Why would you want to make it? Could you even get the permissions? Stay with me and I’ll walk you through my thinking…
First Doctor Adventures Volume 1 review
I did rather enjoy The First Doctor Adventures Volume 1 and said as much in the review I wrote for CultBox: Doctor Who: The First Doctor Adventures Volume 1 review. It’s a great pair of Matt Fitton / Guy Adams stories and bodes well for the future. *_* Message Ends *_*
Twice Upon a Time review
So, the end of several eras and lots of nostalgia in a Christmas special combining multiple Doctors, plenty of reflection and the thinnest of stories supporting some great performances.

The Doctor Falls review
For the sake of completeness, here’s my thoughts on The Doctor Falls. Short review: few gripes aside, like all the reviews I can find I agree it was rather excellent. Long review? Well, here’s some thoughts…
There is only one thing worse than being talked about…
As Oscar Wilde said in the first chapter of The Picture of Dorian Gray, there is only one thing worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about. For fans of Doctor Who, the talking about often takes precedence over the actual show itself. We are perpetually bombarded with two rumours, but this year…

Unless you have been offline all day you will have noticed the BBC announcement that David Bradley will play Bill Hartnell in the Mark Gatiss penned drama on the creation of Doctor Who entitled An Adventure in Space and Time.
