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!
Legacy of Time: Relative Time review
If the third story in the Legacy of Time boxset was a little light on plot, the fourth story, Relative Time is from some angles wafer thin. This story brings the Fifth Doctor into play and the relative angle is (guess!) his daughter in many sense of the word Jenny. It’s another crossover but also…
Considering the Fifth Doctor with the Radio Times
After the prolific and prolonged Fourth Doctor era, Peter Davison’s stint as the Fifth Doctor perhaps failed to hit the heights of previous incarnations. If you’re a modern Doctor Who fan you may not have much idea of the Fifth Doctor so why not pop over to DoctorWhoTV for a quick introduction.

Short Trips Volume III reviewed
In 2010 / 2011, the Doctor Who Short Trips range was a regular (every few months) set of two CDs brimming with short stories read by a range of actors, for all the licensed Doctors and written by a kaleidoscope of writers. For no clear reason, I’ve decided to commence reviews with May 2011 and Short Trips Volume…
Peter Davison talks to Digital Spy
A really good interview with Peter Davison over on Digital Spy: Peter Davison talks Doctor Who’s music and a Five-ish Doctors sequel. Not only does he talk these two topics but has a fair bit to say about Big Finish as well. Definitely worth a read! [|] Message Ends [|]
