The saga of Doctor Who's missing episodes has seen unexpected developments this week, with the Film is Fabulous charity confirming it is pursuing multiple leads. They believe the recovery of one episode in the near future is possible, and "several more" are known to exist in private collections (previous rumours have suggested that may only be two).| The Wertzone

Like many Doctor Who fans, my first thought when Big Finish announced they were adapting the lost serial “Genesis of the Cybermen” for the Lost Adventures range was, “Wait, didn’t they do that already with ‘Spare Parts’?” Still, I couldn’t … Continue reading →| Nashville Book Worm
In my previous foray into the Eighth Doctor’s audio adventures, we explored the end of his travels with Charley and C’rizz and his departure (mostly) from Big Finish’s main range, all of which happened as a result of the Eighth Doctor Adventures radio series becoming a big enough hit that Big Finish decided to make … Continue reading Doctor Who: Sounds of the Eighth Legacy, Part 3| Jumbled Thoughts of a Fake Geek Boy

Bluewater Comics publishes multiple lines of biographies of famous figures from politics, history and entertainment. I was excited when I saw they were publishing a graphic novel featuring actors from Doctor Who - you may not have noticed, but I'm something of a fan. Bluewater's biographical comics don't have the best reputation among comic fans, but I had yet to read one for myself and decided to keep an open mind. My verdict? Fame: The Cast of Doctor Who (unauthorized) is...strange. It ...| Die, Hideous Creature... Die!
I've made you a video! Mel, played by Bonnie Langford, was a companion to the Sixth and Seventh Doctors, and was without a doubt the screamiest in a long line of screamers. Here are all her screams, run together in one convenient video, for no reason at all. Crank that volume!| Die, Hideous Creature... Die!
Hey, it's a new series! Not Doctor Who, that's been around for almost fifty years. No, I'm talking about this series, in my blog - I'm going to take a close look at every single episode of Doctor Who, one by one, from the very beginning. I'm calling it "Episodes", because in a fit of dullness I called my series on the companions "Companions" and now I feel obliged to continue the theme. Given how often I update my blog and how many episodes there have been, I expect none of us will live to se...| Die, Hideous Creature... Die!

Valentine's Day is bearing down on us once again! Last year I looked at the worst companion romances in Doctor Who history because I'm a cynical single bastard. I'm still a cynical single bastard, but I'm going to take a slightly happier tack this year. Enough with the companions, let's take a look at the many, many loves of the Doctor himself! Let's start with the obvious, and work backwards, shall we?| Die, Hideous Creature... Die!
In 1965, less than two years after Doctor Who aired its first episode, the good Doctor made his big screen debut in Dr. Who and the Daleks. The film starred Peter Cushing as eccentric scientist Doctor Who, who lived in a cozy little nondescript house in London with his granddaughters Susan and Barbara. Doctor Who built "Tardis", a time and space machine, and kept it in his back garden. While showing his new invention off to Barbara's boyfriend Ian, the quartet were accidentally whisked off t...| Die, Hideous Creature... Die!

Doctor Who may be a science-fiction show at its core, but it's had its dalliances with the supernatural on more than one occasion. In honor of Halloween, let's put aside the Daleks and the Sontarans and take a look at some of the more more traditionally spooky monsters to vex the Doctor and his friends...| Die, Hideous Creature...

So "the beginning" isn't necessarily the best choice for everyone. In fact, it's probably a very poor choice for most people. Depending on where you start, you'll get very different experiences, and maybe one chunk of it is more for you than another.| Mental Propinquity
I said the eras would start dropping quickly, and I was right. I started McCoy’s era on 20 Apr, and on 31 of May, McCoy’s era ended. That we got three series at all out of the show in the late 80’s is something of a miracle itself. Only this time it took all of Doctor Who with it. The show ended on 6 Dec 1989 after starting on 23 Nov 1963. That’s 26 series and 700ish episodes (depending on how you count – I wrote about that elsewhere) before it ended here.| A Cup of Joe
Well, that was fast. It’s 19 Apr, and on 20 Mar I had just started the sixth Doctor’s run, and here we are at the end.

Sun 19 Mar 2023 brings yet another milestone in my Doctor Who Marathon. I reached the end of Peter Davison’s era with Episode 4 of “The Caves of Androzani”. What a way to bow out. Androzani is epic, and a spectacular end to Davison’s era. But I’m not here to talk about Androzani, I have a separate post for that.| A Cup of Joe
Well, on 9 Jan 2023, I reached another milestone in my Doctor Who Marathon. I completed the Fourth Doctor’s run with episode 4 of “Logopolis”. In some ways getting through all the Tom Baker episodes themselves felt like a marathon. There were just so many of them. Most of Tom’s era talks about what he had “most of”.
