While the rest of Whoville catches their collective breaths after the 50th, here at Traveling The Vortex, we still have miles to go before we sleep.
First up is a surprise addition to the schedule, our impromptu “Who With Friends” will be doing “The Three Doctors” sometime this week, keep an eye on @VortexKeith twitter feed for details.
Officially, if you’re not all tuckered out from Thanksgiving turkey and Black Friday shopping, Friday Night Who on 11/29 will be “The Five Doctors (Special Edition)”.
Our show this week (TTV #153) covers the audio goodness of Big Finish with a detailed look at “The Light At The End”.
Join us in sending all our love to long ago. William Hartnell’s swan song “The Tenth Planet” is Friday Night Who 12/6.
That sets up TTV #154 to be Cybermen Archive IV, as we review “The Tenth Planet”, and Big Finish #34 “Spare Parts”.
FNW 12/13 brings us Christopher Eccelston in “The Long Game”.
Which sets up TTV #155 where we’ll cover the ending of IDW Prisoners Of Time comic with a look at issues 11 and 12. And since December is our month to celebrate the 11th Doctor… (or is it twelfth now? HA! Traveling The Vortex had it right all along!) we’ll discuss Doctor Who Revisited: the 11th Doctor.
Just prior to Christmas, on 12/20 Friday Night Who celebrates with “The Doctor, The Widow & The Wardrobe”.
We continue our 11th Doctor celebrations in TTV #156 with a look at Big Finish “Destiny Of The Doctor: The Time Machine”, and our retrospective 50th Anniversary Discussion over the 11th Doctor Era.
Friday Night Who heralds the arrival of Peter Capaldi on 12/27 with “The Fires Of Pompeii”.
And we round out the year with TTV #157 and our discussion of the 2013 Xmas Special, which if I know Moffat (and I do kids, oh yes, I do) will be called “Silent Night”.
And that brings us up to 2014, and our (gulp) third year of the podcast. As always we thank you, our listeners and fans for keeping us around, keeping us honest, keeping us humble… and sharing the love.
Goodnight everybody!

What? You want a hint of next year? Really? Do I have to keep doing that sneak peak thing? I mean it was cute and clever a few times, but you really want more? (sigh) Okay, okay. January is still in a state of temporal flux while DVD release dates are hammered out, but you might want to make sure a certain trilogy is in your catalogue, least you be left in E-Space…
A new year brings with it a new Christmas Special from the Vortex Boys. We review the anthology book collection, Doctor Who: Twelve Doctors of Christmas from Penguin Books.
