Doctor Who: Wicked Sisters review on Cultbox
I mostly enjoyed Doctor Who: Wicked Sisters by Simon Guerrier, and found it a welcome change of pace compared to some other titles. It’s not perfect and while the idea of the Fifth Doctor and Leela wishing to put the tracer twins aka Graceless sisters Abby and Zara out of commission has its merits, I’d…
Wicked Sisters sale!
To mark the release of Wicked Sisters, Big Finish has a great sale on everything Graceless. It’s one of the stronger ideas Big Finish ever came up with and spun out of the Key2Time main range trilogy many years ago (ten!) I can recommend all of the titles, and they’ve been covered here extensively. +++…

David Tennant in Doctor Who: Dalek Universe
Coming in 2021 (and not part of Time Lord Victorious) David Tennant is back in Doctor Who: Dalek Universe. It’s very much Terry Nation’s view of the Daleks, and seems set in the same continuity David Tennant played Galanar in 2004’s Dalek Empire series 3. Let’s add in Tom Baker, Louise Jameson and John Leeson;…

Doctor Who: Shadow of the Sun review on CultBox
I gave my thoughts on Robert Valentine’s Fourth Doctor story Shadow of the Sun on CultBox. It’s a decent story I’d like to have heard over four parts — not the biggest gripe in the world! Brought forward from 2024 (what’s a little time travel amongst Doctor Who fans?!), it’s entertaining with a serious message….
Lockdown recorded Shadow of the Sun released
Big Finish has released Doctor Who: Shadow of the Sun the first (and surprise extra release) story recorded in lockdown. It’s a Fourth Doctor story with Leela and K9 set on a luxury star-liner that may just be going too close to a nearby star…

Fifth Doctor and Leela to meet the Wicked Sisters!
Great news of a new Fifth Doctor boxset with Peter Davison and Louise Jameson back as Leela. And there’s more – it’s the return of the tracer twins Abby and Zara!
Gallifrey: Time War 3 review on CultBox
Away from the TV but still Gallifrey (if only the title) I enjoyed Gallifrey: Time War 3 from Big Finish. I found some faults, but in the end it’s a good set. My review is: Gallifrey: Time War 3 audio review. +++ Message Ends +++
The DWC looks at the Fourth Doctor’s Leela years
The Doctor Who Companion is racing through the twentieth century series of Doctor Who and Leela (Louise Jameson) has been and gone. Of all the Doctors, Tom Baker’s Fourth Doctor is the most open to analysis in chunks. He had so many years, each companion (ignoring the last who were waiting to join the Fifth…
