Big Finish has released details for the end of the Gallifrey: Time War season, and we’ve returning characters, along with Richard Armitage in the role of Rassilon. It’s not available until February 2021, so until then here’s the full press release…

Gallifrey Time War Volume 2 review
Things ended badly for Romana at the end of Gallifrey Time War Volume 1 and she struggles to turn things around throughout this new Volume 2. Spoiler alert: Rasillon is back and now in charge. This can only mean the Time War is about to get very serious indeed…
What Gallifrey did in the Time War
Big Finish has just announced three new boxsets in the Gallifrey range, and alongside Romana and Narvin, Terrence Hardiman joins as Rassilon himself!
Hell Bent reviewed
So, Hell Bent. If you haven’t seen it, click away now. This review of the Steven Moffat Twelfth Doctor story is littered with spoilers. What the Hell! If you’re just passing, I liked this (in the main) though wish it had tried a bit less and achieved a lot more. Not to say it didn’t achieve a…
Maisie Who?
So, the main question we have from the series 9 teaser trailer is this one: just who is Maisie Williams? I’ve already had theories she might be Clara or even Susan, but I think the evidence now points to a different possibility… In this article I’ll consider every possible idea I can think of; my…
Engines of War by George Mann reviewed
The idea of Doctor Who novels being produced regardless of how fleeting the appearance of the Time Lord’s incarnation is not a new one. Paul McGann’s Doctor was the hero of dozens of novels and comic strips after his initial TV appearance as well as many Big Finish audios. In this light, George Mann’s Engines of War should be…
The Divergent Universe arc reviewed

This comprises the stories from the Divergent Universe (which I review in this piece) and the subsequent stories (which I may review elsewhere). Scherzo also came in this set but that is reviewed here: Scherzo by Robert Shearman…
The History of the Time War
One of the many images available in the gallery for Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS is the picture shown on the left – that of an ancient book entitled The History of the Time War. Now i don’t remotely think we will learn anything of the Time War from this episode and I am…
Doctor Who?
One of the many things we are promised in the next season of Dr Who (and probably as part of the 2013 50th anniversary) is an answer to the question of ‘Doctor who?’ This to me (and no doubt most people) sounds like an origins question, in which case there is a lot of back-story /…
Remember, Remember
It being November 5th I thought I would have a read of Remembrance of the Daleks. Many reasons: I enjoyed the recent Ben Aaronovitch novels (Rivers of London and Moon over Soho); vaguely remembered the story from the late 80s back when I was giving the show another chance (see here) and more importantly this is the story…
