Join @TravelVortex, @VortexShaun & @VortexKeith (@VortexGlenn is on Holiday this week) as we press play on the first three episodes at Midnight CST.
As always don’t forget to look for the hashtags #FridayNightWho #TheTimeMonster
Today’s Doctor Who Adventure Calendar offering is more information on the 3 returning characters. To read about them click here.
As part of the Doctor Who Adventure Calendar we get a second trailer for the Snowmen!
Doctor Who magazine reports that after the Christmas Special, the Doctor will return to grace our sets with the second half of season seven in April, no specific date or time has been set. (This reporter is still betting on the traditional Easter weekend, which this year falls on Sunday the 31st of March, meaning an air date of the 30th) The other odds-on favorite would be the following weekend, on April 6th, but again, both dates are speculation.
Assuming the Mayan calendar was meant to be flipped over and restarted and the end of the world does NOT happen on 12/21, here is the revised schedule we discussed on the podcast.
Friday Night Who on 12/14 will be the first three parts of “The Time Monster” staring Jon Pertwee.
With Glenn off to visit the happiest place on earth, our show this week (TTV #103) will be just me and Keith tackling… BOOKS! In Book Reviews III Keith will review Touched By An Angel by Jonathon Morris, and I’ll take a look at Apollo 23 by Justin Richards. Both books feature the 11th Doctor.
Friday Night Who on apocalypse day itself, we’ll find out if the Master was successful in destroying the world or not as we finish “The Time Monster” with parts 4-6.
Traveling The Vortex episode #104 is our second Adversary Archive on The Master, and we’ll cover “The Time Monster” as well as Big Finish story #21 “Dust Breeding”.
We’ll celebrate the Christmas theme on 12/28, with David Tennant in “The Christmas Invasion” for Friday Night Who.
And then, episode #105 will be our complete discussion of this years Christmas Special, “The Snowmen”.
And of course, with the breaking news that Doctor Who will return in April, we can commit to the next bit of scheduling. 2013 brings us more Big Finish audios!
We’ll kick the new year off on Friday Night Who with Peter Davison in “The Awakening” on 1/4.
TTV #106 has our review of “The Awakening” and Big Finish story #20 “Loups-Garoux”
A few we’ve already reviewed for FNW on 1/11 with Matt Smith in the two part “The Pandorica Opens” / “The Big Bang”.
Which makes way for more Paul McGann audio stories from Big Finish in TTV #107. We last left the eighth Doctor in the divergent universe, so we pick up with Big Finish #52 “Scherzo” and #53 “The Creed Of The Kormon”.
On 1/18, Friday Night Who brings us “Nightmare Of Eden” with fourth Doctor Tom Baker.
TTV #108 we’ll review “Nightmare Of Eden” and Big Finish #27 “The One Doctor”.
The final FNW of January (1/25) features Sylvester McCoy in “The Happiness Patrol”.
And show #109 will be our reviews of “The Happiness Patrol” and Big Finish #25 “Colditz”.
February is still a bit of a jumble with Gally smack dab in the middle of it, but I can hint that we’ll have our first official comic book review (it may also have something to do with Star Trek), a show about crafty Whovians, if all goes well some interviews, and of course, more reviews.
As always, thank you so much listeners, for your faith and feedback.
