Episode 380 – The Beginning of the End

It’s been a long time coming, but we have finally decided to let Keith watch the stories contained in the New Beginnings box set. We start this week with our review of the Fourth Doctor story, The Keeper of Traken. Find out what we thought.

Also, an update from our friends at Candy Jar Books. Plus, news from the theater with the announcement of a Classic Doctor Who story coming to cinemas.

And, of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!

It Is The End, But The Schedule Has Been Prepared For…

At long last, after nearly 7 years, we have reached the end. The moment I have been dreading. The regeneration of MY Doctor. I’ve not seen these since they aired. Not sure how I will feel about revisiting them…

Episode #379 is our discussion of Whobots: The Artificial Life Forms of Doctor Who. No Androids, no Cyborgs. Just good old fashioned clunky sci-fi bots. Get your thoughts in now!

TTV #380 – “The Keeper of Traken” 

TTV #381 – “Logopolis” 

TTV #382 – “Castravalva” and the New Beginnings Trilogy (We’ll close out the end of one era and the birth of another, and discuss the trilogy as a whole.)

A treat for episode #383, since Keith will have now seen EVERY Regeneration episode, we thought we’d talk about a Whole New Life Cycle…

UPDATE! – TTV #384 takes us back to the Brigverse for our book review of Lethbridge-Stewart: The New Unusual by Adrian Sherlock and Andy Frankham-Allen (this replaces Man From Yesterday, which has been bumped to episode #387.

Some Big Finish Companion Chronicles for episode #384, with Series 3 #10 “The Magician’s Oath” and Series 4 #3 “The Prisoner of Peladon”. 

TTV #386 has our thoughts on Big Finish #104 “The Bride of Peladon”, and the end of another era…  

UPDATE! – More Brigverse reviews in episode #387 with a look at Lethbridge-Stewart: The Man From Yesterday by Nick Walters (this replaced our review of The Lost Skin, which has been bumped to a later time.)

And the Eighth Doctor makes a welcome return to the schedule in episode #388. Big Finish Eighth Doctor Adventures Season 2: #5 “The Scapegoat”, #6 “The Cannibalists”.

TTV #389 takes a look at Big Finish #90 “Year Of The Pig”. 

And to fill out the rest of July starting in episode #390, we’re getting Lost In Time with a VERY detailed look at the massive missing first Doctor story, “The Daleks’ Master Plan”.

Our look at Lethbridge-Stewart: The Lost Skin by Andy Frankham-Allen, and Cow Pats, and Comfort by Tim Gambrell (short story from the LS Quiz Book) will come after.

As always, thanks for supporting us.
