Win a TARDIS with Pearl Mackie!

So, we survived our football announcement and now we know, Pearl Mackie is new companion Bill. The internet has had the expected wave of opinion in polar extreme, and we have little in the way of facts to go on, though the BBC has plenty of Twelfth Doctor and Bill teasers, and even a Meet Pearl Mackie…

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.

News on Big Finish Day 7

No sooner than we get excited about Big Finish Day 6 than we learn something about Big Finish Day 7! Colin Baker and Lisa Greenwood are now down as appearing so that means this year we get (at least) three Doctors and I also wonder if we get news of more Flip?! Not only that but India…

Lisa will once again bring us the character of Flip, last heard fighting Daleks, Wirr’n all sorts back here in 2012.

About Flippin’ Time!

Yesterday (Saturday 2nd March 2013 to be precise) Lisa Greenwood confirmed via Twitter (@Lisagreenwood20) that she will be returning as Flip to Big Finish. It seems that this is a wholly future thing so I imagine that might mean she is in the 2014 Sixth Doctor trilogy but that is just speculation. (BTW – the…

Flip to return – definitely (maybe)

Further to earlier speculation on Lisa Greenwood returning to the part of Flip (and presumably alongside Colin Baker as the Sixth Doctor) we have some more information. The seventh Big Finish January podcast (skip my letter at the beginning) reveals that Flip is very much in contention for a return though nothing has been firmed up yet….
