John and Jim tackle the first official Doctor Who radio drama - a six-part Eric Saward production that aired during the 18-month hiatus between Seasons 22 and 23. This marks a rare occasion where John experiences a Doctor Who story for the very first time alongside the review. Production Background: John shares fascinating details about how "Slipback" came to exist - written and produced in just four months as the BBC scrambled to placate fans during the controversial hiatus. The story aired as part of a children's summer show called "Pirate Radio 4," buried within hours of other programming. Discussion covers whether this was originally meant to be a different format, Colin Baker and Nicola Bryant's participation, and the mysterious uncredited director. The Infamous Computer Voice: The hosts immediately address the elephant in the room - Jane Carr's polarizing performance as the ship's computer. Jim shares his visceral reaction while John explores the apparent Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy influences and whether the voice was intentionally annoying or a misguided creative choice. Too Much of Everything: John and Jim examine Eric Saward's tendency to cram multiple Doctor Who tropes into one story - wandering corridors, separated companions, time travel experiments, the Big Bang, creepy aliens pursuing Peri, and more. Discussion explores whether Saward was given too little time or simply couldn't resist throwing in every idea he had. Technical Curiosities: The hosts discuss the slightly sped-up audio on YouTube versions, the quality of the production values, and how the performances hold up. They debate whether this was specifically written for children despite some mature content. Historical Significance: As the first official BBC radio drama and a true product of Colin Baker's era (alongside "A Fix with Sontarans"), the hosts examine what this means for completists and whether it deserves modern appreciation. Ratings: The hosts land on the lower end of their scale, with discussion about whether it's worth an hour of listeners' time and comparisons to the Star Wars Holiday Special as "another appearance by these actors during the original run." Listener Perspective: Jameson shares his 2022 review calling it a "historical curiosity" that doesn't stand up to Big Finish productions, sparking discussion about whether Big Finish should revisit and revise the concept. Coming Up Next: Patreon Exclusive (Monday - Episode 160): More theme music, Memory TARDIS, and the beginning of the Alan McKenzie era of Doctor Who comics with "War Game" and "Fun House." Patreon Exclusive (Friday): John and Jim's deep dive into the missing/planned Season 23 - examining the six stories that were scrapped when the hiatus was announced, discussing what could have worked, and where to find them in expanded media. Main Feed: Classic Patreon episodes released for non-subscribers during Jim's vacation.

The 20th Deja Brew podcast leads off with ‘The Poison Sky' where an early adopter of the man-o-sphere sees the errors of his ways and blows himself up real good in order to prevent an invasion of Sontarans... of his own making tho so F that guy! ‘The Doctor's Daughter' follows with said daughter/clone of the Doctor being introduced and never mentioned/referenced again much to the chagrin of co-host Steve... whilst co-host John secretly/openly cackles at Steve's chagrin-ery. Last up ‘The Unicorn And The Wasp' finds the Doctor and Donna cos-playing a live action game of Clue. I correctly guessed Agatha Christie in the 1920's with an alien Wasp! Twenty-three skidoo!

It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 31 May 2026, and on general sale after this date. There are many stories of the Sontaran-Rutan war. But one hidden thread has yet to be revealed. A tale told across millennia. From before the war to its possible end. As the Doctor is about to discover... On the run from the mysterious organisation called Division, the Doctor has come to the planet Sontar - home of the Kaveetch Empire and their armed forces, the Sontarans. She wants sanctuary... and she's offering the secrets of the Time Lords in exchange. But with the whole of time and space up for grabs, the stakes are high. Can everyone on Sontar be trusted?

John and Jim dive deep into one of the most tumultuous periods in Doctor Who history, exploring the fan response to the show's 18-month hiatus announcement and examining two very different productions from that era. Theme Song Discussion: The hosts review Chameleon Circuit's 2026 version of Peter Howell's 1980s Doctor Who theme. The hosts find it underwhelming, noting it fails to generate the excitement that should accompany the opening of a Doctor Who episode. They express mixed feelings about Chameleon Circuit's various covers over the years. LINK : https://youtu.be/oYyc00TKtCs?si=UUH4k9dMulobMh3o The 18-Month Hiatus: During the broadcast of "The Two Doctors," the BBC announced Doctor Who would be "rested" for 18 months to fund other BBC projects. The announcement made national headlines and BBC News broadcasts, creating major controversy among fans and the general public. "Doctor in Distress" - The Charity Single: Ian Levine, the show's unofficial historian and fan liaison, organized a charity single modeled after "We Are the World" to protest the hiatus. The hosts discuss the infamous recording featuring: Cast members: Colin Baker, Nicola Bryant, Nicholas Courtney, Anthony Ainley, Faith Brown (from "Attack of the Cybermen") Musicians: Justin Hayward and John Lodge (The Moody Blues), Phyllis Nelson, Bobby G (Bucks Fizz) Notable absences due to scheduling issues and Ian's impatience LINK: https://youtu.be/ege9lQecazo?si=yh0ROrCIbz9hf30a "A Fix with Sontarans": In stark contrast to "Doctor in Distress," this segment from the children's show "Jim'll Fix It" proved surprisingly professional. Young fan Gareth Jenkins wished to appear in a Doctor Who story, and writer Eric Saward crafted a nearly 10-minute adventure featuring: Colin Baker as the Sixth Doctor Janet Fielding returning as Tegan (not Nicola Bryant as Peri) Two Sontarans (Clinton Grain and Tim Raime from "The Two Doctors") A surprisingly serious tone rather than sketch comedy Production notes include that the two Sontarans were named Nathan and Turner (a dig by Eric Saward at producer John Nathan-Turner), and that a remastered version exists with Jimmy Savile edited out and updated special effects. Colin Baker later stated he always found Savile "creepy." LINK: https://archive.org/details/a_fix_with_sontarans Doctor Who Magazine - "Voyager" Part 5: The hosts express deep frustration with Steve Parkhouse's comic story, calling it "hogwash," "claptrap," and "balderdash." They criticize: The pretentious writing style The Doctor's complete lack of agency Frobisher the penguin's unnecessary subplot The anticlimactic appearance of the villain Voyager The waste of artist John Ridgway's talents Jim suggests Parkhouse was attempting to emulate Alan Moore but failing spectacularly, creating "whimsy disguised as something deeper." The hosts note this isn't Doctor Who and wouldn't work on television. They express relief that only two more Parkhouse stories remain. Memory TARDIS: The wheel lands on "Mawdryn Undead," which both hosts remember fondly, particularly for: Nicholas Courtney's dual role as two different time versions of the Brigadier The strong integration of the Brigadier into the plot (not just a cameo) Nyssa and Tegan's interactions with the Brigadier The creative concept of keeping the two Brigadiers apart Big Finish News: The hosts briefly discuss Big Finish's move toward digital-only releases for many products due to poor physical sales and warehouse storage issues, sparking debate about collector markets and physical media in the vinyl revival era. Coming Up Next: Main Feed Episode: John and Jim tackle "Timelash" with special guest Alan J. Porter, continuing their journey through Colin Baker's controversial Season 22. Next Patreon Episode (158): The hosts continue with more theme music discussion, spin the Memory TARDIS again, and cover Steve Parkhouse's penultimate story "Polly the Glot" - a three-part adventure from Doctor Who Magazine.

Join hosts John Drew and Jim Beard, along with special guest JB Anderton (Doctor Who Gives a F*ck/The Bat 77 podcast), as they tackle one of the most controversial multi-Doctor stories in classic Who history. Production Overview: The hosts discuss the behind-the-scenes details of this 1985 three-part adventure, including how the location shifted from the originally planned New Orleans to Seville, Spain. They explore the challenging filming conditions, including extreme heat that made the production difficult, and discuss how this became Colin Baker's favorite story due to his friendship with Patrick Troughton. Creative Conflicts: The episode examines the tension between writer Robert Holmes and director Peter Moffatt, who had very different visions for the story's tone. The hosts also discuss script editor Eric Saward's influence and his preference for darker, more violent content. The Season 6B Theory: The hosts dive deep into fan theories explaining why the Second Doctor and Jamie appear older and why the Doctor seems to be working for the Time Lords, introducing listeners to the concept of "Season 6B" - the idea that the Second Doctor had adventures between his trial and regeneration. Performance Praise: All three hosts agree that Patrick Troughton delivers an excellent performance, giving the role his full commitment despite the script's issues. Colin Baker also receives praise for his dedication, though the hosts feel the material doesn't serve either Doctor well enough. Major Criticisms: The character of Shockeye and the extended focus on food/cannibalism themes Gratuitous violence including the rat-eating scene Poor pacing that stretches the story beyond its natural length Wasted potential for Jamie's character The controversial ending where the Sixth Doctor kills Shockeye Questionable makeup choices for Troughton's Androgum transformation Tall Sontarans that contradict established lore Historical Context: The hosts note that during the airing of part two, the BBC announced Doctor Who would be "rested" for 18 months, creating controversy among fans. The hosts conclude that while the story began with promise in part one, it devolved significantly by part three, with the violence and Shockeye subplot overwhelming what could have been an engaging multi-Doctor adventure. Coming Up Next: Patreon Exclusive: John and Jim wrap up their look at Colin Baker's Voyager comic story, spin the Memory TARDIS, and dive into the infamous "A Fix with Sontarans" special from Jim'll Fix It. Plus, Jim finally shares his thoughts on the legendary (and infamous) charity single "Doctor in Distress" by Ian Levine and company. Next Main Episode: The hosts continue their Colin Baker journey with "Timelash," joined by special guest Alan J. Porter.

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!

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.

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!
