Episode 482 – Mucho Master 1 – Doctor?

In this week’s podcast, we start to look back on a series of audios that Big Finish produced that tell Doctor Who stories a little differently. Doctor Who Unbound audios are ‘What if…?” stories that feature alternative universe versions of the Doctor and Companions,

First is Auld Mortality, written by Marc Platt and features Geoffrey Bayldon as the Doctor and Carole Ann Ford as Susan,

Then we review Sympathy for the Devil by Jonathan Clements and starring David Warner as a third incarnation of the Doctor, Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart played by Nicholas Courtney, and Sam Kisgart (shhh,,, it’s really Mark Gattis) as The Master. A pre-Doctor Who David Tennant is also in this story as Colonel Brimmicombe-Wood.

We also talk about the news of the week.

Episode 445 – Beyond the Doctor: Spooky Time 4 – The Three Doctor Solution

Again we diverge from the Doctor Who Universe to look at films starring actors who have played the Doctor.

As you know by now, in the spirit of the Halloween season, we’re reviewing movies that could be considered a horror, a thriller, or just spooky in story and tone. And this time we may have stretched that definition somewhat.

In this episode we look at Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Doctor actors Peter Davison, Colin Baker, and Sylvester McCoy along with Third Doctor actor, Jon Pertwee in 1993’s BBV production, The Airzone Solution. And then we follow that up with Tenth Doctor actor David Tennant in the 2013 remake of Fright Night.

And, of course, feedback.

Enjoy!

Episode 285 – The Crazy Misadventures of the McLeod Family

ttv_logo_newHere we are at our 11th “Beyond the Doctor” episode, this time reviewing 10th Doctor actor, David Tennant in the wonderful BBC Films comedy, What We Did on Our Holiday. We step away from Doctor Who to talk a little bit about Tennant’s performance as Doug McLeod, and his dysfunctional family.

Also, we’ll talk a bit about an announcement by Peter Capaldi that is making waves, talking about the return of a certain companion actress. If you haven’t heard what he’s saying, you’ll have to listen to find out.

And Spoiler warning for those who haven’t seen X-Men; Apocalypse, we discuss some of the finer points of the plot.

Plus, a prize announcement for our raffle drawing winner, Mich.

And, of course, your feedback.
