Not so long ago in a galaxy far, far away, there lived a Doctor Who fan.  A grumpy Doctor Who fan.  This is the story of what happened to him.   Merry Christmas to all our poor, poor listeners.

Ladies and Gentlemen, The Doctor Who Podcast is proud to present – this year’s Christmas Quiz!! Yes, it’s that time of year when we all torment each other and find out just how little we actually know about Doctor Who.

So sit back, have a cup of tea and enjoy hearing Stephen, Tom and Leeson squirm under the barrage of brain-teasers James thoroughly enjoys throwing at them!

Join James, Stephen and Ian as they get together to talk about….well, it’s a geek-out so anything’s on the cards.  It’s only natural however that the conversation heads in the direction of reviewing the 50th Anniversary year.  All three attended the Celebration at the Excel so that gets a review along with a chat about all the other celebratory events that have taken place .   In all the excitement, a lone voice dares to say; yes Doctor Who has taken over television – but has there been enough of the actual flagship show itself?  Would we have traded the Afterparty and The Science of Doctor Who for another episode of the show itself?  Hmmm.

Next week – it’s BACK!  Yes, it’s our Christmas Quiz!!

With Day of the Doctor having aired over a week ago, it’s time to find out what our listeners thought of the Anniversary episode.  Join James, Stephen, Michele and Tony as they read, listen and argue about the points of view you’ve send in!

 

Hot on the heels of last episode’s instant review of the Day of the Doctor, the DWP presenters retreat to the relative safety of the DWP Campervan to have a more measured, thoughtful, insightful discussion on the 50th Anniversary story.

Join the hosts of your favourite Doctor Who podcast as they discuss in more detail their reactions to The Day of the Doctor!

How about that then?! THE DAY HAS BEEN SAVED! James, Michele, Tony and Laura were at the British Film Institute this evening to see Day of the Doctor along with fellow fans as it aired around the globe. This is their instant reaction, recorded not more than ten minutes after the final credits had rolled.  Tune in to find out what they thought about it! NOW!!!

Join us later in the week for Part 2 of our review when Tom and Leeson share what they thought too. We’d also love to hear what you thought – send in your feedback to us as feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com. Audio feedback under two minutes stands a better chance of making onto a future DWP.

Enjoy the show!

Well, it’s now aired in the UK!!  Join James, Ian, Tony and Laura as they review the rather wonderful ninety minute drama about the origins of Doctor Who, An Adventure in Time and Space.  Be careful, this is a FULL review, spoilers an’ all, so if you live in a part of the world that hasn’t aired the programme yet, don’t listen to this episode until you’ve seen it!

Join us at the weekend for review of the 50th Anniversary Special, The Day of the Doctor.  It’s getting very close now!!

Wow.  Who saw THAT coming?! Paul McGann BACK as The Doctor on our telly boxes!  But what did the DWP team make of it?! Join James, Tom and Stephen as they attempt to regulate their breathing so they can articulate their reactions to seven minutes of television no-one thought would ever exist….

Inevitably, discussion turns to Day of the Doctor – but don’t worry, it’s all spoiler-free. Mainly because we don’t know anything about the story!

Also, Ian and his son Alex pop into the Campervan to talk about Professor Brian Cox‘s  latest project, The Science of Doctor Who that screened on BBC2 the same day that Night of the Doctor was released.  What a week!

Join us Thursday – yes, Thursday – at 10.30pm GMT when Episode 236 will be online – a review Mark Gatiss’ An Adventure in Space and Time.

 

In this week’s episode of The Doctor Who Podcast, Stephen and James review Big Finish’s hugely anticipated anniversary story, The Light at the End.  The play features the first eight Doctors!  There will be arguments…..

Ian and Michele drop by to review another multi-Doctor Big Finish story, The Four Doctors.

Join us next week for our geek-out about the events taking place in the run-up to the 50th Anniversary.  And if that isn’t enough for you, then we’ll chuck in a review of The Science of Doctor Who from Ian as well!

In the second of our Writers Specials, we speak to Tommy Donbavand and Simon Guerrier about writing for Doctor Who.  Tommy talks about his recent Eleventh Doctor and Clara novel, Shroud of Sorrow and Simon about giving words to the Second Doctor and Jamie in is his Destiny of the Doctors audio, Shadow of Death.

Join Stephen, Tony and Laura as they guide you through the interviews – oh, and there’s a cameo from a truly ghostly voice from the DWP’s murky past……

Join us for Episode 234 next week for our review of Big Finish’s Light at the End.
