What a weekend, courtesy of Mr Russell T. Davies and The Guardian! Join Ashley and Brent as the now former showrunner junks our recording schedule with (incredibly interesting) interview promoting his memoires! Memoires, at 63?! Madness. Anyway Doctor Who features heavily in the extract published by the Guardian – great Who news for the Campervan to chew over. Along with coverage of the celebratory anniversary screening of The Satan Pit at cinemas across the globe, and the latest Thirteenth Doctor and Yaz story from Big Finish and Rochana Patel – that’s The Hallamshire Incident – what more could you possibly ask for?!

Enjoy.

Thursday 17th September 2026 – the most anticipated Invitation to Tender of all time was published by the BBC!

Yes, the future of Doctor Who is up for grabs – the BBC intend to award a contract to produce our favourite show for at least one series.

Join James, Phil and Brent as they get together to talk Time Lord Tenders in the greatest Doctor Who drama since The Reality War. Yes, they have pored over the 21 page document, and this is what they think…..

Welcome to Episode 426 of the Doctor Who Podcast! Join Drew as we (finally) formally welcome Ashley to the DWP Campervan. And of course, they get stuck into irreverent Doctor Who geekery from the outset. For those of you that don’t know, Ashley has been providing the DWP with witty-ditties for the show, and songs for Big Finish stories The Echo Chamber – goodness knows how many he has composed to date, but it’s a lot!

Enjoy the show.

Join Michele and James as they bring you the eagerly anticipated and much delayed Episode 424 of the The Doctor Who Podcast!

Given the (relatively) recent news that the 2026 Christmas Special is no more, DWP424 has been a kinda-casualty in our scheduling. So we will now bring you our “tell all” interview with Ashley in a later episode – although his presence is very much felt throughout this one!

James and Michele therefore catch you up on developments relating to Doctor Who’s now-infamous Tender process, before turning to the sort of drama Big Finish aren’t usually used to – after last week’s snap refresh of their website and App! What could possibly go wrong?!

It’s also Brent‘s turn to sit in the famous Campervan Mastermind chair as he answers questions on his specialist subject which is…… tune in to find out!

And Drew returns with his take on The Final Cut – the first story in Big Finish‘s new Eleventh Doctor range from the new box set, The First Question.

All this – and more! Enjoy the show.

Join James and Michele for an unplanned, unscripted episode of the DWP! Mainly because we didn’t find the time to record the content for the *scheduled* Episode 421!

Inevitably with this presenter pairing, conversation heads towards Big Finish, but then takes an unexpected turn into the use of comedy in Doctor Who! Jump on the board and enjoy a cosy fireside chat about when comedy has worked but at other times, fallen flat.

Most importantly, don’t forget to check out Ian‘s Just Giving page and donate – as this episode goes live, Ian has just seven sleeps until he undertakes the London Marathon! That’s a whole lot of running…..

Enjoy!

Doctor Who is still at the heart of our conversation, and Drew, Ian and Phil make a point of (or couldn’t avoid) drawing parallels between their selected films and Doctor Who stories.

But first, they just can’t resist talking about the recent news that is the end for Ianto’s Shrine in Cardiff Bay is sadly, nigh.

Jump on board the DWP Campervan for it’s final spin of 2025. Michele returns and instantly takes over the driving, giving James plenty of time to navigate the (very loose) review of Doctor Who in 2025. In reality, it’s more of a Who-related geekout as Michele and James catch up!

Many thanks to everyone who everyone who has listened to us this year – or indeed at any time in our long history. We wish you a very Happy New Year and a wonderful 2026!

We’ll be back in early 2026 with our annual Who & Company crossover, this time focussing on the latest animated story, The Savages. See you next year!

It’s only a week to Christmas!! Here in the DWP Campervan, we are getting into the Christmas spirit – by watching films that remind us of this wonderful time of year. However, given its impossible for us to sustain conversation about films (or indeed ANY subject) without refencing Doctor Who, James, Brent and Phil draw parallels between the films they’ve selected with Doctor Who stories! Can you guess the Who connection before they do?! It won’t be hard….!

We’ll be back on Sunday with our review of the Finale to The War Between The Land and the Sea, and then again in just a few days time ON CHRISTMAS DAY – with our own very Christmas Special! If the BBC can’t provide a Doctor Who Christmas celebration, then we will! Hooray!

Enjoy the madness! 🙂

The TARDIS is “going nowhere” apparently! That’s what the BBC said said week – and the irony is that’s how it all began, in a junkyard, in 1963…….!

Join Phil and James as they talk about where Doctor Who is now and speculate about when we can expect it to be back on our screens. Has Disney Plus disappeared in to the sunset with their big bag of cash? Has RTD cried (Bad) Wolf once too often? Will we ever know why Billie Piper and Carole Ann Ford were actually in the last series at all?! All this and more gossip, news and feedback besides!

As always, we’d love to hear from you! Get in touch by emailing the Campervan at feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com, Tweeting or Xing us, or jump on our Facebook Page or Group.

Enjoy the show.
