Episode 205 – Everybody Play the Game

TTV-Logo-1400-150x150It’s time for Fun and Games Part 2! In this week’s show (yes, a day late we know) we discuss some of the fun we had reviewing two Doctor Who licensed table top games.  First, we look at the Doctor Who version of Yahtzee. Then we go over the Dalek themed board game, Risk. Find out what we thought of a new spin on these classics.

BUT, before all of that, we also get to our reviews of the Big Finish Seventh Doctor and Mel audio play, Flip-Flop.

And then, more fun in the works with a review of the first issue of the Titan Twelfth Doctor comic book series.

Also, we have some news to give our reactions to.

And, of course, your feedback.

Episode 204 – Two Tickets to Paradise

TTV-Logo-1400-150x150In this week’s podcast there is a slight change to what was scheduled. First, we do offer up our reviews on the Season 24 Seventh Doctor and Mel story, Paradise Towers. Also, as promised, we dig a little deeper into the background of the Quarks as presented in other media, particularly the TV Comics runs, for a mini Adversary Archive on the Quarks. However, due to some unforeseen circumstances, including but not limited to time constraints, we have pushed off our review of Big Finish’s Seventh Doctor and Mel audio, Flip-Flop.

Also, in news, we reveal some more convention guests, as well as talk about some comments made by Eighth Doctor actor Peter Capaldi.

And, of course, your feedback.

Listen to us give our impressions of both adventures which sometime clash in the realm of Doctor Who universal canon and continuity.

Also, a few announcements surrounding this week’s return of the television show with Series 8.

Plus, lot’s of discussion regarding Doctor Who: Legacy and the release of The Hunt for Greyhound One.
