Jean Marsh Remembered by Sylvester McCoy, Sophie Aldred and Simon Guerrier
Doctor Who : The Sirens of AudioJean Marsh passed away on the 13th April 2025 at the age of 90. She was a reknowned actress both in the UK and abroad, having worked in TV, film and theatre.
For Doctor Who fans, she is best remembered for her roles as Johanna in The Crusade, Sara Kingdom in The Daleks' Masterplan, and Morgaine in Battlefield.
She reprised the role of Sara on audio for Big Finish in The Companion Chronicles and Early Adventures ranges.

We'll also discuss his Sara Kingdom trilogy, which features the stories, "Home Truths", The Drowned World", and "Guardian of the Solar System". There'll be spoilers, so if you haven't heard them, we recommend you grab them from the Big Finish website and have a listen to them first. They are fantastic!
We also have some special tributes to Jean from her Battlefield co-stars, Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred. Thanks to them both for joining us.

#263 - Every Ninth Word
Doctor Who: The Metebelis 2The new Doctor Who season has launched with Ncuti Gatwa's Doctor joined by new companion Belinda Chandra, played by Varada Sethu. Both of us agree that Sethu's debut as Belinda was great! We look forward to spending the next seven episodes with her and the Doctor. Ben reflects upon what movies "The Robot Revolution" reminded him of, and David wonders if there wasn't a little bit of a Douglas Adams inspiration to the story. Plus, who was more cringy, AL or the Doctor? Opening music is from "Belinda" by the Eurythmics in 1981. Closing music is "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, Pt. 1" by the Flaming Lips in 2002. We recorded this podcast on 15 April 2025.

The robots are controlled by the Great Generator, who plans to merge with Belinda. On their spaceship, Belinda blames Alan for registering the star, as it flies through a time fracture. , who had been in pursuit, is sent backward six months, and by the time Belinda arrives, he has become the historian. Exploiting a fault that prevents the robots from hearing every ninth word, the Doctor and the rebels rescue Belinda. The Doctor realises that the robots possess a certificate identical to Belinda's, and have had it for over 5000 years. He concludes that this is related to the time fracture. Belinda allows herself to be captured, asking the robots to spare the rebels. Belinda and the Doctor are taken to the Great AI Generator. They discover that it is not "AI" but "AL", short for Alan. After Belinda had blamed Alan, the robots used the time fracture to capture him ten years earlier in 2015.

Belinda touches her copy of the certificate to Alan's, causing them to experience all of time simultaneously.

The AI Generator was similarly designed to appear large and imposing, with the set and art design teams collaborating to determine where the presence of Alan would be inside of the machine. The set for the throne room, where Belinda is initially brought in the episode, is re-used for the AI Generator's room. The design team placed the "head" of the Generator's design just below the room's centerpiece in order to create the illusion that the room acted like a crown for the Generator and that the room is an extension of him.

The Doctor Who PodcastWelcome to our midweek episode! There’s no guarantee we will be releasing a midweek episode every week, but Brent Drew and Ian very much wanted their say this time! Join the other half of the DWP Team for their take on The Robot Revolution. Note we did not say “for a more considered look” as we usually do with our “A” episodes, as this was recorded shortly after the ep dropped on BBC iPlayer and Disney Plus on Saturday.

Podcastica Episode 336: The Robot Revolution OR The Two Ranis
Podcastica"I'll stop the world and weld with you! I've seen some changes and..." ...they don't exactly make for a smooth start to the new season! That's right friends, Doctor Who is back for a new season and kind of like last season we start with a little bit of an uneven episode! We liked it, but we didn't love it. Belinda is fantastic, the effects are amazing, the hints of the mysteries to come are intriguing, but there are some bits in this episode that just don't go over well. And "The Two Ranis?!" you ask. Well, you'll have to hear our discussion on things. It's funny.

Episode 912 – Hell Bent
Who NewThe Doctor has found his way back home to Gallifrey, and he’s really really…angry.
At the barn near the Citadel, The Doctor draws a literal line on all of Gallifrey. The Time Lords try to arrest him but the soldiers won’t fire on a war hero. They turn on Rassilon who is quickly exiled. As the new president, he promises to reveal who or what the Hybrid is.
To get information on the Hybrid, he convinces everyone that he needs to talk to Clara. They pull her from the timestream at the moment of her death on the trap street. But with Clara by his side again, he reveals that he has no interest in the Hybrid. His sole purpose was to save Clara, no matter the cost to all of time and space. Running to the end of the universe to hide, The Doctor actually finds the answers to many mysteries.

TDP 1382: #DoctorWho: The Fugitive Doctor: Dead or Alive REVIEW
Tin Dog PodcastThis title was released in July 2025. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 30 September 2025, and on general sale after this date. 2.1 Flying Solo by Tajinder Singh Hayer Pilot Officer Mohinder Singh Johal is an RAF pilot on a sortie during World War Two. Following a close encounter with a flying blue telephone box, his Spitfire vanishes! The Doctor, whose TARDIS is out of control following a blast from a time disruptor, should be keeping a low profile, but with Mohinder lost in time and space, she has to help bring him home. 2.2 The Junkyard Loop by Aaron Douglas The Doctor, pursued as ever by Cosmogon, crash-lands the TARDIS on an off-grid junk planet littered with the remains of time machines from a thousand civilisations. After being saved from the indigenous Time-Frost Parasites by Sodalis, an old companion long-marooned, the Doctor must come up with a plan to save them both. But a sinister Division commander has tracked our heroes, and not even Cosmogon can stand between him and his desire to unlock the Doctor's memory and obtain the secrets within. 2.3 Hereafter by Tim Foley Cosmo has finally captured the Doctor! But they're stranded together on a planet thanks to an unusual psychic forcefield grounding her ship. Tracing its source, they find a settlement that’s preparing for a festival in honour of their 'queen' in the mountain. When Cosmo is captured, the Doctor must decide whether to help her captor... especially now she's discovered, thanks to local woman Herma, that the queen and her minions are vampires! **Please note: the collector's edition CD box set is strictly limited to 1,000 copies**

Who's He? Podcast 491 | You tear men down like Roger Moore
Who's He?In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast....
Review - The Savages
In the week before we see new Doctor Who on our televisions, Phil and Scott look at the recent blu-ray release of The Savages, starring William Hartnell as the Doctor. With this story missing completely from the archives, this animated release sees the Doctor, Steven Taylor and Dodo Chaplet overthrow an evil race who drain the minds of the oppressed masses to enhance their own intelligence and live forever. As they chat about the merits of the story and the animation, Phil has to explain to Scott who Patrick Allen was and why he scared a generation.
And of course, they chat about the upcoming series of Doctor Who with Ncuti Gatwa!

TDP 1350: Doctor Who: The Fifth Doctor Adventures: The Great Beyond REVIEW
Tin Dog PodcastThe Doctor has been sent to Beyond - for the rest of his natural lives. In the years after a devastating intergalactic war, a prison facility was set up on a distant planet. To preserve the fragile peace, the most dangerous former combatants are sentenced to life in Beyond. Like the notorious Starclair sisters, whose involvement on both sides of the war is the stuff of legend - as well as a certain Time Lord with a reputation for interfering in things that don’t concern them. But there’s something else on the planet too. Something that adds an infinite variety of agony to a life sentence on Beyond, and makes the inmates wish for the relative comfort of death. Because what's coming to those who stay too long in Beyond is almost too hideous to contemplate. Alive and conscious, deprived of your senses and all movement. Just locked in, alone in a darkness that lasts forever.
