Latest Podcast Episodes

Kurz vor unserem Live-Event losen wir an dieser Stelle noch einen Meilenstein von Patreon ein: Pia und Raphael besprechen "Warriors of the Deep". Da es zur Folge aber bis auf die wenigen (wirklich grossartigen) Low-Lights nicht viel zu sagen gibt, schaffen wir es noch ein Kurzreview zum Buch "Lethbridge-Stewart: The forgotten Son" unterzubringen, von welchem wir auch gleich ein Exemplar verlosen.

Things are getting a pit prickly as the Doctor and Romana II have an encounter with Meglos, a super intelligent cactus with aims for world domination. Of course he's going to need to borrow a body, which he can also make look like the Doctor (while keeping the real thing tucked away in a time bubble). Not that a little Chronic Hysteresis Loop will stop the Doctor.

The News

As always we hate kicking the news off with sad times but we do also like to celebrate the lives of people who have appeared in Doctor Who. Nigel Terry, who played the firm and naive General Cobb in the 10th Doctor story The Doctor's Daughter has sadly passed away aged 69. After a long career in both movies and television it's his performance in 2008 along side David Tennant that will stick with Who fans.

Big Finish have now secured the rights to Torchwood and we'll be getting six brand new audio plays starting this September. After years of fans asking for a new Torchwood TV show this is the best we're going to get until then but in some ways this is potentially better as Big Finish have a very high success rate within the Who universe and its many spectacular stories. John Barrowman will return along with new characters to continue Captain Jack's adventures.

It seems we may not have seen the last of River Song. Alex Kingston has been speaking at Mega-Con in the US she says "All I can say is... spoilers!". She then goes onto say that she hasn't been told her character is done so, take from that what you will.

Competition - winner announced

"Black Orchid" Review

We love Classic Who week and we pick out a fairly quiet story that hardly ever gets talked about or reviewed. It's a short two-parter featuring 5th Doctor Peter Davison with the trio of Tegan, Nyssa and Adric who get pulled into a lively social gathering but there's a sinister figure responsible for murder. Is this short and sweet or does it shrivel and die like un-watered flowers?

It's been a great week inside the Tardis. Thank you for your thoughts on Black Orchid and thank you for pushing us over 500 Likes on Facebook, that's awesome! Next week we're reviewing Eccleston's Father's Day. Until next week - Allons-y!

We here at The Oncoming Storm are big fans of the Sportsball! Indeed, there's nothing more that we like to do than sit back with out favorite cocktail, watch the players take to the pitch, throw around the basesball, and score lots of touchdowns! That's why we couldn't be more excited to talk about The Game, by Darin Henry. It's all about the Doctor getting involved in the sport of Naxy, the national sport of the world of Cray. I'm sure it will be a bracing time! There's also some sort of war and William Russell is involved somehow. So throw on your cleats, and let's get down to it! The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got the original story River Song was pilfered from. Again.
