Ah, 2005. If you were alive in ’05, you might remember that YouTube debuted on the interwebs, Prince Charles married Camilla, Hurricane Katrina battered the southern US, and London won the right to host the 2012 Olympics. Oh, yeah… and some guy named Russell T. Davies brought a certain time-travelling adventure series back to our screens!

A decade-and-a-half on, the revitalized Doctor Whois…

A new boxset from Big Finish is set to explore exactly that – and stars Carole Ann Ford as Susan, and William Russell as Ian Chesterton. As if that weren’t enough, the four-part drama will also feature the Doctor… but probablty not the one you were expecting. That’s right: Paul McGann will play the Eighth Doctor in Susan’s…

There’s something almost unpleasantly ironic about this collection. The cynic in me would decry it for hiding behind a household name (well, a Whovian household name) while, in many ways, completely sullying it. My forgiving side – the one that grants the benefit of the doubt – would say that it tried to do something different and largely succeeded. But there is a phase shift in evidence here: a…

It is no secret that behind the scenes, there were problems with the production at the BBC, resulting in the…

Anthony Dry’s incredible artwork for the cover of Doctor Who: The Target Storybook has been revealed… and, quite refreshingly, the upcoming tome is the only product since the most recent Thirteenth Doctor logo was unveiled that doesn’t use the current design!

The cover art is naturally in the style of classic Target novelisation fronts, notably by Chris Achilleos. Dry provided the pieces for…

Geronimo! Get ready to dive into four new audio adventures with the Eleventh Doctor from Big Finish.

Narrated by Jacob Dudman, these stories reunite the Eleventh Doctor with some familiar faces in The Eleventh Doctor Chronicles.
