The Doctor Who Podcast Special #13 – The Faceless Ones with Who & Company

The voices are the same but the podcast is different….. or something! Join Drew, Brent, Michele and James in the now-annual tradition of beginning the New Year reviewing a recently animated classic Doctor Who story. This time, it’s the turn of The Faceless Ones.

Who & Company is a wonderful podcast hosted by Brent and Drew that has it’s roots firmly in Doctor Who fandom, however the subject matter of regular episodes goes far beyond the confines of the Whoniverse. Once a year however, the parallel worlds of the two shows converge and the focus is on squarely on classic Who.

W&C has a distinctly different tone to that of the DWP. It’s an easy listen, more laid back and less rushed. So pull up a lounger, grab a mug of coffee and get comfy and listen to four friends chew the fat about a classic Patrick Troughton story in Episode 49 of Who & Company, also known as Special 13 of the DWP.

Enjoy the show!

Happy New Year!

In a last minute change of plans, Ian and James talk about the annoucement that Series 24 is coming to Blu-ray! So lots of McCoy geekery – and James gets to talk about Delta and the Bannerman *again*!

Then, in the first of a new feature, conversation turns to a classic story that Ian saw for the first time just last week. Yes, it turns out dear listeners, that some of the Campervan Crew have not seen every classic story. Can you believe it?! Upon learning this frankly scandalous news, James embarked on a mission to fill in the gaping chasms in his co-presenter’s fandom as quickly as possible. The first story under the microscope is……well, that would be telling! But the coverart might give you hint. Expect to travel back in time nearly 60 years – or 960 years, depending on your perspective. Time is relative you know!

We’ll be back with Episode 319 in February for the delayed return of our predictions show – when we try to guess what will happen in the Whoniverse over the coming year. What do YOU think will happen?! Get in touch to let us know by emailing us at feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com, tweeting us on Twitter or joining us on our Facebook page.

It’s another episode of The Doctor Who Podcast! Join Drew and James as they take the DWP Campervan out for its latest spin around the Whoniverse.

This month sees the return of our Nine Lives mini series – a detailed look at the all-too-brief Ninth Doctor era. Ian and James have reached Father’s Day – and leave no emotional stone unturned. Do they hold it together? Tune in to find out!

Also on the agenda is the recent announcement from Big Finish that the War Doctor has been recast in a new audio series called The War Doctor Begins. No More? YES More! Exciting stuff.

Rounding off the episode, Michele joins Drew to discuss the all-time classic Big Finish story, Spare Parts.

Join James and Phil for a brand spanking new edition of The Doctor Who Podcast!

Episode 312 sees the beginning of a spring clean of the Campervan (in October) – the first and most obvious change is our new coverart. Isn’t it brilliant?! It’s designed by the one and only DWP artist-in-residence, Dave – check out his feed for all the other non-DWP stuff on which he sprinkles his magic.

Also – we introduce to you, Desert Island Who! A new feature that is nothing more than a regular slot that allows us to discuss Classic Who, New Who, Big Finish Adventures and Who books. All tied up and introduced by a witty little ditty composed by none other than former DWP host, Leeson Fischer! It’s another earworm to rival the theme from Nine Lives – which returns in next month’s DWP.

What with nerdy observational ramblings about Fury from the Deep and Out of Time – the latest multi-Doctor audio from Big Finish, what is there not to love about this episode of your favourite Doctor Who podcast?!

The campervan is back! After nearly six months, the DWP returns with James and Phil at the helm. What do they cover? Well, it’s probably easier to ask what don’t they cover?! After being held back by a life-changing global pandemic, nothing stops James waxing lyrical for over an hour, almost without drawing a single breath – although to his credit, Phil does try!

Series 12 six-months on, Christopher Eccleston’s return to role with Big Finish, Jon Culshaw as the Brigadier, Tweetalongs, Doctor Who lockdown quizzes, Missing Episodes and those that hunt for them, the Special Edition of the Power of the Daleks animation and Fury from the Deep are just some of the topics discussed!

So find an armchair – or a corner in your favourite COVID-safe public house – and tune in!
