Tread Merrily 2025 begins with the annual tradition -- a Festive episode of Doctor Who. This one is called "The Time of The Doctor." When a signal broadcasts across all of time and space, The Doctor soon finds himself in orbit around a mysterious planet. But he is not alone with Daleks, Sontarans, Cyberman, and more also investigating the signal. Meanwhile, it's Christmas dinner at Clara's and she needs him to be her boyfriend. Are these two threads connected? Is the planet really Gallifrey? It's almost time for the clock to strike 12 and The Doctor is out of regenerations. Is this the final end? Justin determines Steven Moffat's third worst trait as a writer. The discussion centers on Moffat using his greatest hits throughout this story, leading to Tread Perilously's own greatest hits -- including Erik's belief about the real end of A Song of Ice and Fire, Twilight hot takes, and a determination about who has seen the light of the Two Trees. Erik tries to figure out why Paul McGann was seen recently shooting something in his Eighth Doctor costume. Justin stumbles on the secret sauce of Stranger Things. The true name of The Doctor is revealed. The Lord Humongous makes a trip to the market and Justin determines what the Sontarans really resemble.
Last week, we brought you a look at the New Adventure, Shakedown. Part of it novelised the video release of the production from DreamWatch Media, written by Terrance Dicks. So, in a sequel to that episode (and in some ways a prequel - it's Doctor Who, of course it can be both!), we speak to director Kevin Jon Davies about creating this adventure with the Sontarans.
Who remembers the excitement of 1994, when a new Doctor Who drama without Doctor Who was announced, featuring the Sontarans? And then - GASP! - came the news that this story would then be novelised as part of the New Adventures range, featuring Doctor Who! And it was being written by Terrance Dicks?! Kenny is joined by guest co-conspirator Si Hart, as they look at this book. Plus, we've got readings from archival interviews of Terrance Dicks, performed by someone with plenty of Big Finish and Dead Ringers credits to his name! Yes, it's... well, tune in and hear!

We'd been feeling a little lost in Flux, but thankfully this week we're watching series 13 episode 1, "The Halloween Apocalypse"! This is where it all began, so we'll finally have all the context we've been missing. Just who are Swarm and Azure Ravagers? Does a mysterious Hat Man live on Mars, or in Liverpool? How many Sontarans does it take to control a sector? Is Bel the Doctor's mom or whatever? Thankfully, at least one of these questions is finally answered. For the others, we'll get them next time I'm sure! Sam | Jordan Cohost | Tumblr | Twitter | Patreon | Discord | YouTube

review To celebrate forty years of wandering through time and space in style, the Sixth Doctor and some of his best friends are about to find themselves in the adventure of his lives... 1. The Exaltation by Jacqueline Rayner Hints of a temporal anomaly bring the Doctor and Mel to Arunopal on the day King Otho steps down as ruler. But Otho has a dilemma - which of his five sons should succeed to the throne? He has a deadly game in mind to solve the problem - and the target is a certain Time Lord... 2. Escape from Holy Island by Chris Chapman The history books tell us that on the 8th of June, 793 AD, the Holy Island of Lindisfarne was burnt to the ground by Viking raiders. But history also records that "fiery dragons were seen flying in the sky" - can that be true? With time running out, the Doctor, Peri and a young HG Wells mobilise the island's monks as the real raiders of Lindisfarne thunder over the North Sea - and they don't look like Vikings... 3. Sibling Rivalry by Robert Valentine The Doctor, Constance and Flip are stuck on an alien planet in the middle of a civil war. To make matters worse, the Sontarans have invaded. To make matters worse still, two of the dastardly quins - the volatile Clarent and the odious Dellan - are both on the scene... and the Doctor may not survive their furious competition. 4. Children of the Revolution by Robert Valentine With their plans causing havoc, wicked quins Clarent and Dellan are at loggerheads. But as the schemes of Sontaran Battle Marshal Skurr reach their climax, the only thing more dangerous than the brothers' competing against each other... is the brothers joining forces. 5. The Thousand Year Thaw by Chris Chapman Once every thousand years, the frozen planet of Zycros thaws, revealing the most fertile soil in the universe. For a brief window, Zycros becomes the farming capital of the cosmos, and that brings with it many visitors - including a small blue box and its two occupants, keen to stretch their legs. But as the ice melts and the temperature rises, the Doctor and Peri realise that this pleasant stroll may be the last one they ever take together... 6. The Firstborn by Jacqueline Rayner The Quins have succeeded in their quest - a little too well. Multiple Doctors congregate on Arunopal, bringing with them a terrible threat to reality... This release comes with a bonus audiobook: The Ultimate Poe by Andrew Collins. **Please note: the Collectors' Edition CDs are strictly limited to a pressing of just 1,500 copies**
review This title was released in April 2024. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 31 May 2024, and on general sale after this date. In the depths of the Time War, a Rutan attack on a Time Lord facility leads to Gallifrey declaring a vicious reprisal. But not all Time Lords support the action. One thinks there's more to the situation than meets the eye. And this Time Lord... was once called the Doctor.

Join Mark & Joe as they head to Gallifrey for the last instalment of the Sontarans vs Rutans series, In Name Only...
This title was released in March 2024. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 30 April 2024, and on general sale after this date. The war between the Sontarans and the Rutans has been going on for millennia. And is likely to continue for millennia more. A terrible conflict with no care for consequences or collateral damage. Billions have died with no end in sight. Its reach can encompass ancient Ireland and a forest world in the far future. Encounters with UNIT and a Doctor no more. From the outside these battles may seem disconnected. But sometimes there is a common thread. And unpicking that could destroy everything. When a trip to the planet Taxodon goes wrong the Doctor finds himself with mere hours to prove himself innocent of murdering a Sontaran. As more die, the Doctor and Charley need to uncover the cause and why the Sontarans are even on this planet... if they have time.

TDP 1245: Doctor Who 1.2. Doctor Who: Sontarans vs Rutans: The Children of the Future This title was released in February 2024. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 31 March 2024, and on general sale after this date. The war between the Sontarans and the Rutans has been going on for millennia. And is likely to continue for millennia more. A terrible conflict with no care for consequences or collateral damage. Billions have died with no end in sight. The Brigadier is used to the Doctor acting strangely, but this time there's something decidedly different about the whole affair. As he looks into the Time Lord's odd activities outside of UNIT, there's a mystery that'll take Lethbridge-Stewart to a site very familiar to Sarah Jane Smith. Can the Brigadier trust his old friend? Who are his mysterious new allies? And is the future of humanity really at stake? A Sontaran threat could spell the end of their long-standing friendship... and the entire planet!

We kick off a brave new era as Graham Williams takes the reins of the show with the Season 15 opener, Horror of Fang Rock. This story features our only ever sighting of a Rutan – the mortal enemy of the Sontarans. It also features… rich people? Ugh. Ok, whatever, guys. Join us as we discuss Leela's bloodlust, Terrance Dicks' love of the green, whether this story suffered from overspending at the end of the previous season, the absolutely terrible rich people that find their way into this story (and if they're really necessary), and the disappointing lack of a “Best of Fang Rock” story from Big Finish! Anthony finds himself longing for the coming of the revolution, while Reilly finds himself getting very upset about some news regarding the end of the season.

Let us know in the comments. Like, subscribe, get the face tattoo. 01:45 : We're back on our Mrs. Flood / Sibling theory 07:25 Our Review (spoilers abound)
This title was released in January 2024. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 29 February 2024, and on general sale after this date. The war between the Sontarans and the Rutans has been going on for millennia. And is likely to continue for millennia more. A terrible conflict with no care for consequences or collateral damage. Billions have died with no end in sight. Its reach can encompass ancient Ireland and a forest world in the far future. A temporal tidal wave leads the Doctor, Charley and C'rizz to the Giant's Causeway, Ireland 55BC, where the TARDIS drains of power and they encounter Sontarans who believe they're Roman Legionnaires. What has caused this and what is the strange secret in the rocks?
We watch “The Giggle” (60 Anniversary, Ep3) where the Doctor and Donna return to London and realize that yes, everyone on Earth is now the A—hole. Plus, for once the Doctor encounters an old foe who is not the Daleks nor the Cybermen nor the Sontarans nor the Weeping Angels nor the Master nor... sorry... it's the Toymaker! So... yeah? Whilst said encountering is occurring, Donna negotiates a sweet pay raise, the Toymaker performs a puppet show to die for, and the Doctor bigenerates. Don't ask questions. Just enjoy the Doctors kicking Toymaker arse!
