It’s lazy days as we mark time while we wait for Doctor Who to return to our screens. Thankfully there seems to be a steady stream of hints about what’s to come. Join Michele, Ian, and Brent as they talk about the speculation reported in the Mirror and elsewhere about potential spin-off series and writers.

Then we turn from the unknown to the known as we discuss the upcoming Ninth Doctor adventures from Big Finish and a new Third Doctor season on Blu-ray. Finally, we look back at a couple of stand-out stories from Big Finish’s erstwhile Monthly Range. Michele and Ian go ’round and ’round with the 2007 release Circular Time and guest reviewer Adam shares his thoughts on 2012’s Protect and Survive, from his very own fallout shelter.

Don’t forget to check out James on Episode 69 of the Who & Company podcast – a must listen for the millions of fans of Dad’s Army and Doctor Who!

In another timey-wimey epsiode of the DWP, Michele, James, Phil and Ian join you for an hour’s amble through the various eras of Doctor Who. Timey-wimey you say? Well yes – this was recorded before Russell T Davies played HAVOC with our scheduling, so it misses the recent Series 13 and the latest Blu Ray announcements This will be remedied shortly!

We do however cover the new Galaxy Four animation and the wonderful news that Christopher Eccleston is returning to Big Finish for another series of Ninth Doctor audio adventures.

The lions share of this episode however covers The Romans which Phil, Ian and James discuss – and then we dive into some Big Finish goodness as James and Michele review the recent Sixth Doctor release, The Eleven. If all that temporal confusion and strange numbering doesn’t confuse you, nothing will!

We will be back shortly with our preview of Season 13 which will be back on our telly boxes in just a couple of weeks.
