Latest Podcast Episodes

We’re sharing a preview of a new audiobook, Douglas Adams: The Ends of the Earth, which celebrates the wit and wisdom of the legendary science fiction author of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency. Twenty-five years after his death, Adams’s books continue to be read by new generations and his creations along with his ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything being “42”, have seeped deep into public consciousness. Written and narrated by Arvind Ethan David, Adams’s former protégé, this one-of-a-kind audiobook includes rare archival material from the Adams Estate, interviews with Adams’s personal friends like Stephen Fry and David Baddiel, and reenactments of his work to form an immersive journey through the mind of one of the most beloved and visionary writers of our time.

Get Douglas Adams: The Ends of the Earth now at Audible, Spotify, pushkin.fm/audiobooks, or wherever audiobooks are sold.

The second half of what was supposed to be a quick and easy pair of episodes to research, record and edit, with less than 2 hours of screen time across the two stories. But somehow Richard has managed to invite everybody, so Giles, Rick and Paul are joined by returning guest Gav Rymill and this part is even longer than the first half.

We're discussing two stories which introduce an unexpected Doctor: last time it was the two part 6th Doctor story which concludes the whole Season 23 story The Trial of a Time lord, also known as The Ultimate Foe, which we've paired in this episode with 13th Doctor outing Fugitive of the Judoon from Series 12. We'll decide whether these stories give you a nice surprise or a nasty shock.

This week, David & Matt sit down to discuss the 3rd story from season 15 of Doctor Who 'The Well' Doctor Who theme by Ron Grainer, arranged by Alexander Erben. Talk to us! Email: timenorspacepod@gmail.com Twitter: @timenorspacepod

Greetings, fellow Wanderers, this is David from Wanderers in the 4th Dimension  You were probably expecting an episode of Crossing the Void today.  However, for personal reasons, the Wanderers in the 4th Dimension are putting our podcast on hiatus for the time being.  Keep an ear out for us when The War Between the Land and the Sea airs, as we plan to cover that.  And, you never know, our paths may or may not cross sooner.    

This time we examine the two Big Finish Rani releases... The Rani Elite featuring the Sixth Doctor and Peri, and Planet of the Rani featuring the Sixth Doctor once again, but with audio companion Constance Clarke.

Due to the untimely death of Kate O'Mara, the role of the Rani went to Siobahn Redmond.

So for those who love the classic era Rani or the recent bi-generated iteration, here is a Rani that you may never even knew existed.

Will these Doctor Who stories stack up and finally give the Rani some worthy adventures?

Tune in to find out.

Theme music by Joe Kraemer.

There’s new stirrings in the world of Doctor Who production, one being an official BBC search for new producers of an new animated Doctor Who series for Time Tots on CBeebies, and a much more tenuous rumour about discontent between Russell T Davies, a potential streaming suitor, and a push for a grittier, aged-up series.

This week, David & Matt sit down to discuss the 4th story from season 15 of Doctor Who 'Lucky Day'

Doctor Who theme by Ron Grainer, arranged by Alexander Erben.

Talk to us! Email: timenorspacepod@gmail.com

Twitter: @timenorspacepod  

The last episode of season two has aired and been reviewed, which means it's time for the wrap-up episode! Kat, Liz, and Tansy have gathered to give their opinion on Ncuti's time as the Doctor, the wonderful companion Belinda Chandra, and create their wishlists for the future of Doctor Who.

As for the future of Verity! the podcast is taking a break for now, but we'll let you know what's next as soon as we know.

Lynne and Erika couldn't make the episode, but they've given their Doctor Who future wishlists:

Erika's Wishlist: 1. I want MORE WRITERS! My favourite eps have been the non-RTD eps, and I would like more of those (preferably from a very diverse set of writers).

2. I want new blood at the helm -- someone who grew up on the modern series not the classic series. And for the love of Susan, not a white dude, please.

3. Speaking of Susan, I'd like Carole Ann Ford to get an actual, proper appearance that genuinely works and isn't weird nonsense. (Yes, I'm referring to both her onscreen appearances and the rumours of what was supposed to happen before the rewrites. I think it's all nonsense.)

Lynne's Wishlist: 1. I wish that the BBC would openly recognize Doctor Who as a unique and wonderful thing that only the BBC could have created and be proud of it instead of treating it more often than not as something they grudgingly tolerate.

2. I wish for a sufficient number of well-crafted episodes to directly match up with the time and money that are available to create them.

3. I wish for more bold and inclusive storytelling. This season felt like Doctor Who was starting to find its groove again, and I would hate to lose that momentum.

4. BRING BACK RIVER SONG!

Dearest listener, what does your wishlist for Doctor Who look like? What have we missed in our reviews? Leave us a comment or join the discussion on Instagram and Bluesky.

SHOW NOTES

(00:03:00) The new photos on Tom Baker’s website can be seen here.

(00:19:48) “3-2-1” was a British game show that made by Yorkshire Television for ITV. It ran for ten years, from 29 July 1978 to 24 December 1988, with Ted Rogers as the host. The show was a huge success, consistently pulling in large ratings. The first series, though intended as a summer filler, attracted up to 16.5 million viewers and subsequent years never peaked below 12 million. The show occupied a Saturday early evening slot for most of its run. The overall objective of the game was to survive elimination through to part three of the show, and try to unravel a series of cryptic clues in order to win the star prize. However, one of the clues referred to “Dusty Bin,” the show’s booby prize; any contestants who wound up with Dusty at the end of the show received only a new dustbin. Each show had a theme, such as “Seacruise” or the “Swinging Sixties”. All of the variety acts, quiz questions, stage sets and clues to prizes subsequently followed this theme. The clues became notorious for being almost impossibly difficult and obscure, having only a remote connection to the prizes, which contestants sometimes did not appear to grasp even after Ted had revealed it to them. It has often been suggested that the clues had more than one possible explanation, allowing the producers to control which prize the contestants received.

(00:26:37) “The Simpsons – The Computer Wore Menace Shoes” can be seen here.

The IGN Review of this story.

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast....

Doctor Who is over for the foreseeable future, so Scott and Phil decided to have short chat about what could happen to the show and what they would like to see stay the same or change.  Well, that was the plan.  What this actually turned into was an hour long, fractious and argumentative conversation in which Scott was struggling to undertand why his Dad was turning into a bitter old Doctor Who fan.  Which he isn't.  Honestly.

Hosts:

• Connor  The Deadly Emerald
• David http://www.davidsafar.com/    @gwythinn    MaroonedWhovian    DraconianProgeny
• Trevor  @whoviantrev.bsky.social    Trevsplace

Join us in two weeks for the June edition of Crossing the Void, the show where the Wanderers explore media outside of the Whoniverse.  It’ll probably be a longer episode than usual, since we’ll be catching up on the last three months.

You can send us feedback on Facebook at Wanderers in the 4th Dimension or on Bluesky @wanderin4d.bsky.social!

The tricky thing about reviewing two-parters is trying to give an opinion when you haven't seen both halves. Well, these Verities have now seen both parts, and they have opinions.

Join Erika, Liz, and Lynne as they talk regenerations, new-to-us history, and all those plot twists.

We'd love to hear your thoughts on this finale! Leave a comment here, send us an email, or join the growing discussion over on BlueSky or Instagram.

Oh, and join us on the next episode for our end-of-season wrap-up!

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast....

Review - Wish World and The Reality War

Phil and Paul return for the last time this season and pull a double shift with their in depth look at Wish World and The Reality War, the season finale of Doctor Who. With a surprise cameo and THAT regeneration, months of speculation came to and end as we said goodbye to Ncuti Gatwa. But did RTD stick the landing?

You can currently find us on X, Threads, Mastodon, Bluesky and Facebook.  Don't miss an episode by subscribing to our show on Apple Podcasts/iTunes, Spotify, Amazon Podcasts, plus many other podcatchers of your choice. 

WOW! We are still reeling here at DWP headquarters. What was real and what was fiction?! WE STILL HAVE NO IDEA! Join the entire DWP crew (in the Campervan together for the first time EVAH) as James, Michele, Phil, Brent, Drew and Ian try to unpick the concluding instalment of this latest series of good ol’ Doctor Who. Just what did they make of The Reality War?!

And more importantly, what did YOU think?! Let us know! We start wrapping up our Series 2 coverage in Episode 402 – you have a chance to be on it! Audio feedback always gets priority (but keep it under two mins) but you can always get in touch by emailing the Campervan at feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com, Tweeting or Xing us, or by jumping on our Facebook Page or Group.

Our guest this time is comic book writer & artist Matthew Dow Smith!  Matthew joins us this episode to talk about his career in the comic world working on such properties as The X-Files, The Uncanny X-Men, Supernatural, and of course, Doctor Who.  What inspired him to enter the world of writing and drawing for comic books?  How did that lead to working on Doctor Who?  And what does he have planned for the future?

Then Matthew presents his Guest Selection - the incredibly influential 1960s spy-fi classic TV show, The Avengers!  We talk about Steed and Mrs. Peel and their wide influence over the spy genre since first appearing on our screens worldwide.  What made it such a fun & exciting watch and would it hold up today if it was suddenly rebooted?

Enjoy the show!  See you in July!

It’s the end, but the moment is prepared for as Steven, Warren, and Chris give their varied takes on “The Reality War”, the final episode of Season 2 and the last bit of Doctor Who on our screens until we’re graced with The War Between the Land and the Sea, presumably later this year(?)  A marathon session covering a controversial-ish regeneration, RTD’s storytelling habits, speculation on the Disney+ deal, further speculation on the future of Doctor Who and television in general, and so much more as the discussion spans more than two hours! Listen if you dare!

Ross, Melvin, and Jeff were as shock as everyone else was with The Reality.  What started as a season finale, and we got the final bows of the 15ther Doctor.  That was just a start.

Thank you Ncuti Gatwa,
