Hello all you wonderful listeners!

With the imminent return (well, in six months time of Ace to Doctor Who, James and Drew follow the Yellow Brick Road where we first met Dorothy McShane in 1987 – and Dragonfire! Has it stood the test of time?

Before we find out, the guys take advantage of recording together for the first time in ages and basically, yabber about Doctor Who for 15 mins. Sanity is then restored in the form of Ian who presents the finale of our Nine Lives series. Looking back as Series 1 has been quite a journey and it’s not without a tear that James and Ian review The Parting of The Ways.

Join us shortly for Episode 343 – if the (totally baseless) rumours are to be believed, we may have some rather exciting casting news to discuss! If we don’t, then we’ll have a in-depth critical analysis of Delta of the Bannerman instead. You are of course, Most Welcome.

Enjoy the show.

Join James, Phil, Michele, Ian and Brent and for the latest day trip in the Campervan! There’s a Ninth Doctor theme this month with the return of Nine Lives

Before that, James and Phil meander through the recent 60th Anniversary rumours and make yet more baseless predictions that have not a single hope of coming true. Ian and Michele then return to discuss the penultimate story in Series 1, Bad Wolf – and then Brent then drops by and joins Michele in reviewing Her Own Bootstraps, a Ninth Doctor Short Trip Big Finish story by Amy Veeres.

You can get in touch with the campervan crew in the usual ways – send an email to feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com, find us on Twitter or on Facebook.

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.

Enjoy the show!

Join James and Drew as they try to remember they are supposed to be talking about how the news that Jodie Whittaker and Chis Chibnall are moving on has been received in the United States of America. However, they end up going off on all kind of geeky-tangents!

PLEASE NOTE this Episode was recorded the day BEFORE the news broke that Russell T Davies is returning to the show. If you’re after the Campervan’s take on that development, it’s already online here! Go grab! But make sure you come back for this one too – it’s still contains audio-gold!

Episode 326 will be online next week, a little later than planned given the quite frankly extraordinary events of the last ten days!

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.
