Podcasts about Eighth Doctor

Nick and Benji present… The Chat: Death in Blackpool… Good Review Guy: UNIT: Nemesis - Masters of Time… Behind-the-Scenes and Drama Tease: Dark Gallifrey Missy Part 2… Also Available: The Eighth Doctor and Lucie Miller Series 4.

This month, we're diving into the 2001 BBC Books Eighth Doctor novel, Father Time. Following on from our recent synopsis episode, this is the main event: a full discussion of the novel—what works, what doesn't, and how it fits into the broader Eighth Doctor era. We also explore the plot, the tone, and some standout characters, including the Doctor's daughter, Miranda! Before all that, we kick things off with the usual mix of news and short topics you've come to expect. Then, after the book chat, we open the mailbag for a bumper listener feedback section—nearly 25 minutes of your thoughts, theories, and reactions. Our listeners are the best. And if you enjoy our musical moments, don't skip the end! Inspired by some of that listener feedback, we play a very special song after the closing credits—one that was nearly lost to time after its chance to appear in a recent episode of Gin & TARDIS came and went.

  The Doctor, Audacity and Charley visit many times and places, always with the best of intentions. But others have a different agenda... Puccini and the Doctor by Matthew Jacobs Inspired by his friends, the Doctor takes Charley and Audacity to Milan to meet Puccini and hear the music of love. But the Doctor is not the only alien entranced by humanity. The mysterious Tura is setting riddles, and for those who answer, the experience is transformative... Women's Day Off by Lisa McMullin Iceland, 1975. Charley and Audacity are thrilled to discover that the women have gone on strike. All of them. With potentially disastrous consequences for a girl called Kyla - and everyone she comes into contact with. The Gloaming by Lauren Mooney and Stewart Pringle The Doctor, Charley and Audacity arrive on Gloaming, a luxury sleep clinic in orbit around a dead world. Gloaming is filled with wealthy Sleepers, dreaming through the dark ages of their world in suspended animation. But something is growing here, creeping into minds and poisoning dreams. Something the Doctor fought long ago...

On this week's Trap One Podcast Keith, Melvin (@kittenry) and Mark (@QuarkMcMalus) discuss the Eighth Doctor boxset Deadly Strangers, which sees TV Movie writer Matthew Jacobs return to Doctor Who writing duties. 

As we continue our exploration of the Big Finish Doctor Who Monthly range, we are thrilled to be joined by Conrad Westmaas, who played Eighth Doctor companion C'Rizz. C'Rizz left the TARDIS crew in Absolution, and Conrad discusses his final story with us, and we also engage in some other tasty Doctor Who chat.

Nick and Benji present… The Chat: Podcast Xmas… Good Review Guy: Doctor Who Audio Novel: Terror of the Master… Behind-the-Scenes and Drama Tease: Eighth Doctor Adventures - Puccini and the Doctor… Also available: Bernice Summerfield - The Eternity Club 4.

This week, John Dorney joins us in northern Scotland to investigate the disappearance of the Ninth Legion — only to discover that there are things here even more terrible than the Roman army, things that can only be fought with trust and empathy and music. It's The Eaters of Light. Notes and links Crash (2004) starts with a voiceover by Don Cheadle, laying out the terms of the metaphorical link between car crashes and human interactions generally. It's not a very popular movie, not only because of its superficial approach to issues of race, but also because it won the 2005 Academy Award for Best Picture instead of Brokeback Mountain. Richard mentions American YA fiction writer Scott Westerfield, particularly the Uglies series with its teenage protagonist. He also mentions William Golding's 1954 novel Lord of the Flies, where a group of schoolchildren stranded without adults on a deserted island, quickly revert to savagery. Brian Vernel was born in 1990, so he was 26 or 27 when he played Lucius in this episode, and 32 when he played far-right extremist Curly in the first season of Slow Horses in 2022. Kar's speech about the depredations of the Roman Army is taken from the Agricola by Tacitus, a short biography of his father-in-law, chronicling, among other things his campaigns in northern Britain. Tacitus depicts the Caledonian leader Calgacus making the speech just before the Battle of Mount Graupius, in which his forces were defeated by the Romans. You can read the speech in translation here. This week's monster is based on very common depictions found in Pictish carvings of an animal called the Pictish Beast. Some depictions are found among the carvings seen in this episode. Tania Bell is a companion to the Eighth Doctor, first appearing in Big Finish's Stranded in 2020 — the first transgender companion to appear in Doctor Who. She is played by Rebecca Root. John has written five stories for Tania: her second story Wild Animals, as well as The Long Way Round, What Just Happened?, Best Year Ever and Flatpack (in which she meets Christopher Ecclston's Ninth Doctor). John writes for Michelle Gomez as Missy in Divorced, Beheaded, Regenerated and in Too Many Masters.

But here's a summary of where we're up to right now. 500 Year Diary is our latest new Doctor Who podcast, going back through the history of the show and examining new themes and ideas. Its first season came out early this year, under the title New Beginnings. Check it out. It will be back for a second season early in 2025. The Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire has broadcast our hot takes on every new episode of Doctor Who since November last year, and it will be back again in 2025 for Season 2. In the most recent episode of Maximum Power, Pete and Si interviewed two of the people involved in the creation of the new Blakes 7 Series 1 blu-ray box set — filmmakers Chris Chapman and Chris Thompson. We'll be back to cover Series D next month. And finally there's our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. This week, we marvelled at a clever and enjoyable episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine in which a new Emissary turns up and Miles welcomes Keiko back to the station — Accession.

As the Doctor, Liv and Helen explore the universe, they come across lost souls, troubled minds and long-kept secrets. From a lonely world with birdsong but no birds, to an English university whose undergraduates tell ghostly tales, and a distant galaxy where a utopian society lives in the shadow of enormous creatures, the TARDIS crew are haunted by echoes of past, present and future... Birdsong by Tim Foley The TARDIS arrives on an empty world where two scouts await the rest of their colony. Except this world may not be as empty as everybody thinks. There's a figure in the woods - and a strangely familiar sound... As the Doctor and his friends learn more about the planet's inhabitants, the birdsong they hear becomes a deadly chorus. Lost Hearts by Lauren Mooney and Stewart Pringle Michaelmas term, 1903. In one of England's ancient universities, strange apparitions float between quads and cloisters. While Liv and Helen protect a naive undergraduate from a sinister society, the Doctor finds a ghost-hunting ally. One who happens to be the era's foremost chronicler of things that go bump in the night... Slow Beasts by Dan Rebellato The Doctor takes Liv and Helen to see one of the Wonders of the Outer Galaxy - to Ran-Zoan, where immense alien figures loom over the plains and settlements of the Renn. But the Slow Beasts hide a secret - a secret that, once unleashed, spells doom for this entire world.

The end is near for Samantha Jones's travels with the Eighth Doctor and Fitz. But before she departs, she and her friends need to survive SS officers and a beings from another dimension. As ever, author Steve Cole joins us with his insights, while David A McIntee recalls his experiences of writing the book.

This episode of Pieces of Eighth takes us to Sweden... and there's not a Muppet chef in sight. We discuss this 1990s take on UNIT, and are joined by editor Steve Cole and writer Nick Walters, as we discuss the 22nd Eighth Doctor novel from the BBC Book. Kenny and Matt also discuss the DWM review of Dominion.

We're back - at long last - for a brand new season of episodes. Kenny is joined by Matt Michael for this run of 18 episodes, as we take a look back at the Eighth Doctor novels from BBC Books, starting with the arrival of Fitz Kreiner in Doctor Who and the Taint. We've got lots of new content for you - the original character outline, his DWM reveal, plus what the DWM review said at the time, as well as chats with author Michael Collier (COUGH, COUGH), editor Steve Cole, and Rebecca Levene, who helped to co-create Fitz. Our new series starts here...

Join Dylan and Mark Donaldson down the Shobogan Wetherspoons as they discuss two relaunches for the Eighth Doctor that came after his first adventure (never let it be said we aren't relevant) . First up it's the BBC EDA ‘The Eight Doctors' by Terrance Dicks. Then it's the Big Finish audio 'Storm Warning' starring Paul McGann and India Fisher, written by Alan Barnes. And as always the answer the burning questions: What did the doctor ride bareback at the academy ?Who is a beefy Doctor Watson? Which dr who companion is most likely to sabotage a zeppelin?

review   This title was released in March 2024. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 31 May 2024, and on general sale after this date. Four new adventures featuring classic Doctors encountering monsters from the new series of Doctor Who! 4.1 Invasion of the Body Stealers by Jonathan Morris Visiting the crystal forests of Systalzyn, the Fourth Doctor and Sarah encounter a crashing spaceship and race to find survivors... But not everyone they meet on this colony world is in their right mind - the body-hopping Harmony Shoal have set their sights on invasion! 4.2 The Queen of Clocks by Jacqueline Rayner The Sixth Doctor and Mel come to the rescue when they find a castle under siege from Clockwork Droids. But in a kingdom run with painstaking precision, time is running out for the Queen of Guyenne... 4.3 The Silent Priest by David K Barnes In search of solace from the Time War, the Eighth Doctor is caught between rival criminals and the law in the city of Sunset. Who is the mysterious Priest with the key to ending the violence? And if the Doctor really has visited Sunset before, why can't he remember? 4.4 The Silent City by David K Barnes Sunset City is thriving, the tourists are spending. But something about the place doesn't make sense - and the casino seems to be in the business of redistributing the wealth. In the midst of it all, the Seventh Doctor faces the consequences of actions he has yet to take...

And so, we're nearly there - Christmas is just a day away. But we're going back to 21 December for today's episode, as we celebrate Winter of the Demon, Roy Gill's Eighth Doctor adventure with Charley and Audacity, which was released earlier this month. We chat to Roy, sound designer Benji Clifford - and India Fisher pops by too!

Christmas Day. It's always easy to remember, as it's on 25 December each year. Except, in 2001, it wasn't - as the Eighth Doctor finds Harry Sullivan doing a crossword outside a cafe. We're looking at 2018 Short Trips subscriber exclusive Tuesday, which was written by Tony Jones. We speak with producer Ian Atkins about this little gem.

We continue our adventures with the Eighth Doctor and his friend, journalist James Macfarlane, in BBC Audio's series of original adventures. Today, we look at The Teeth of Ice, which is the third outing in the series, which began with The Scent of Blood, and continued with The Code of Flesh. And, because it's the winter, it's apt that we join them in Antarctica! We speak with range editor Michael Stevens and writer Andrew Lane about it!

We've returned to the world of Eighth Doctor comics for our episode today. Pieces of Eighth turns back the clock by a decade to mark the Doctor's appearance in a 50th anniversary story, and we're NOT talking Night of the Doctor. We chat to writers Scott and David Tipton about Prisoners of Time, the IDW comics celebration of the show, and in particular, the eighth episode, The Body Politic. We also speak to artist Roger Langridge.

Join Joe & James as they take a side step into the the Doctor Who comic strips to talk about the Eighth Doctor graphic novel, The Glorious Dead.

Brrrrrr! It's winter, so we thought we'd tie in with the season and do a story set in the snow. So, brace yourself, get your anti-gravity ski boots on, and prepare for some extreme wintersports on the Martian moon of Phobos. There's nothing to fear... is there? We look at this Eighth Doctor and Lucie adventure, as we chat with author Eddie Robson, and guest star Tim Sutton. Also, find out what Becca and Kenny's biggest fears are too!

his title was released in November 2023. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 31 December 2023, and on general sale after this date. The Doctor is about to gain a new best friend. Lady Audacity Montague has carved her own path in Regency England. She has also been watching the heavens, wondering what lies beyond. When the Doctor gatecrashes one of her famous society balls, Audacity is given the chance to find out... The Devouring by Lisa McMullin (1 part) Lady Audacity Montague - strong-minded and unconventional - has been gazing at the stars. But unfortunately for her - and everybody she knows - they've been staring back. She's made inadvertent, intergalactic eye contact with a malevolence known as The Devouring. Now it wants to consume her. But Audacity is already consumed. With rage. The Great Cyber-War Part 1 by Tim Foley (1 part) The Great Cyber-War. Humanity and her allies versus the horror of the Cybermen. This is no place for the Doctor to take his new best friend. But on the Aurum, the war seems far away. There are parties and cupcakes and all the gold of Voga - and not a Cyberman to be seen... The Great Cyber-War Part 2 by Tim Foley (1 part) The Cyber-War has come to the Aurum. The best hope of survival lies with the great Oberon Fix - the finest scientific mind of his generation, working to protect humanity. But the Doctor is worried that his own presence will affect history's outcome. And for Audacity, life with the Doctor will never be the same again...  

It is our great pleasure to bring to you our recent chat with India Fisher, who played, and continues to play, Eighth Doctor companion, Charley Pollard.

Join us in the TARDIS for a Whovian celebration like no other! In this special episode of '2 Geeks and a Microphone,' Michael and Megan, Zig from Nerdery and Murdery Podcast, and Brien from The Three Geeky Dads Podcast, embark on an epic journey through time and space to commemorate the 60th Anniversary of Doctor Who. We dive into the time vortex to discuss the momentous return of the Tenth Doctor, David Tennant, and explore the excitement surrounding his reprisal of the iconic role. Rumors are swirling in the time stream about the Eighth Doctor, Paul McGann, potentially getting his own spin-off series—join us as we unravel the mysteries and speculate about the future of Doctor Who beyond the anniversary specials.

Doctor Who first hit the airwaves in 1963 - sixty years ago! - but the TARDIS went dark in 1989 for an indefinite hiatus. In the mid-1990s, plans started brew to import the iconic British sci-fi series across the pond to America. The BBC partnered with the Fox network to produce a TV movie, which, if it performed well, could serve as the backdoor pilot for a revived series. English actor Paul McGann took over the TARDIS console as the Eighth Doctor after Sylvester McCoy's Seventh Doctor was *checks notes* brutally gunned down by a machine-gun wielding street gang on prime-time television. Co-starring American actress Daphne Ashbrook as the doctor who tries to save him (see what I did there?) with Eric Roberts hot on their heels as The Master. Unfortunately, the special presentation was not a success, and the good Doctor remained in exile until regenerating in 2005 as Christopher Eccleston. But this is Chronovember, so we're whipping out our sonic screwdrivers and partying like it's 1999!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com   You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

In Doctor Who's early years, there were many episodes where the Doctor was noticeably absent, usually because William Hartnell or Patrick Troughton needed a holiday from the grueling shooting schedule. But Human Nature is the only episode of Doctor Who where the Doctor doesn't appear at all outside of flashbacks. Of course, David Tennant is front and center, giving a performance for the ages, literally, in John Smith. There are many reasons this episode, along with the conclusion, The Family of Blood, is so well remembered: Its central plot device tees up the climax the Series 3, it showcases some brilliant guest performances in the villainous Family, and it might even explain why the Eighth Doctor said he was “half-human.” But it's the love story between Doctor's alternate identity and a human woman that the story lives or dies upon. Let's get at the heart of this thing… This time there's THREE of us! We welcome Steven Schapansky⁠ from ⁠Radio Free Skaro⁠ for this special episode.

It's been eight episodes in eight days so far, so Dave's going to have the day off. Kenny is joined by his Pieces of Eighth semi-regular co-host Matt Michael to discuss the EIghth Doctor novel The Book of the Still, written by Paul Ebbs. Get reading for a fascinating chat about how Paul came to write the book - and also, what Matt thinks of his original DWM review of the novel more than 20 years later. Has he changed his mind?

Our Doctor Who 60th Anniversary season continues with our special guest for this episode, Conrad Westmaas. Conrad is a lifelong Doctor Who fan and actor who played Eighth Doctor companion C'Rizz, a chameleonic alien from the Divergent Universe. And since it's anniversary time, it will have been 20 years in January 2024 since C'Rizz made his first appearance in Philip Martin's "The Creed of the Kromon". Conrad speaks frankly about his love of sci-fi and fantasy, what let him to being an actor, and how he felt about his time as a Doctor Who companion, including how he dealt with the negative fan reaction at the time.

In this episode of WHO CORNER TO CORNER, we're joined by not one, but two Doctor Who writing luminaries - Peter Anghelides and Simon Guerrier!The duo join us to talk about their new book The Daily Doctor, an inspirational page-a-day guide to life gleaned from those moments of Doctor Who in which we learned to appreciate the small things as much as the big things, and know exactly when to run. We also discuss Big Finish, Blake's 7, the Eighth Doctor novels, working with Tom Baker, the importance of spreadsheets and (unafraid to waste the opportunity of a good plug) Simon gives us not only an exclusive look at the forthcoming  60th anniversary coffee table book Whotopia but also some some insight into his soon-to-be-released David Whitaker biopic which investigates the life and work of Doctor Who's very first story editor!All this and Geoff makes a hash of the authors' surnames (to his eternal shame), literally just seconds after asking them both how they should be pronounced!Support the show Subscribe to Who Corner to Corner on your podcast app to make sure you don't miss an episode!

I am back! Jarod is also back!! This time HE brings ME some Doctor Who radio drama!!! In January 2007, a new series of Eighth Doctor audio adventures was broadcast on BBC7. These starred McGann alongside Sheridan Smith as a new companion named Lucie Miller. There were eight 50-minute episodes in total; the first and last stories were two-parters, and the rest were single episodes. These adventures have since been released on CD and that is how we listened to it. In 2008, BBC7 broadcast the second series of The New Eighth Doctor Adventures (which Big Finish had already released on CD). All fourteen episodes were then repeated in 2009, and the final two-part story later that year. Big Finish has gone on to produce two further series of these Adventures, and four selected stories from the third series were aired in 2010, with BBC Radio 4 Extra (as Radio 7 became) skipping ahead to the fourth series in early 2013. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/richard-templeman/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/richard-templeman/support

They're even more surprised when it's followed by a parcel also sent by the intergalactic con-man, asking them to keep its contents safe. Contents that seem to be a lot of worthless junk. And their surprise gets even bigger when this parcel is itself followed by an invitation... to Drax's funeral. And that's just where the surprises start. The Love Vampires by James Kettle (1 part) Regret can follow people everywhere - even out into deep space, in the shadow of a dying star.

Happy Hogmanay or New Year's Eve to those of you outside Scotland. To mark the occasion, we thought we would end the year with this bonus episode covering a story from Detective Comics 198 in which Batman and Robin come to Scotland! It's a change from our usual Multiverse/Legacy coverage and analysis but we thought our listeners would enjoy it.   This epic tale deserved to have an epic cast, so we invited past guests Gavin Rizza, Christine Panton and Steve Higgins to help out. We also recruited Max Traver and Rich Fullam from the “Weird Warriors” Podcast, Kenny Smith from the Eighth Doctor podcast “Pieces of Eighth” and former MP Tom Harris from “Tom Harris: The Imposter” Podcast to add their vocal talents.   You can find the Weird Warriors Podcast at https://weirdwarriorspodcast.podbean.com/   Pieces of Eighth at https://anchor.fm/doctor-who---pieces-of-eighth   Tom Harris: The Imposter at https://tomharrisimposter.podbean.com/     Email us at theearth2podcast@gmail.com Facebook www.facebook.com/theearth2podcast Instagram www.instagram.com/theearth2podcast Twitter www.twitter.com/podcast_earth2 Leave us a Voicemail at www.speakpipe.com/theearth2podcast   #Batman #Robin #Scotland #Kilt #Bagpipes #Castle
