Jean Marsh passed away on the 13th April 2025 at the age of 90. She was a reknowned actress both in the UK and abroad, having worked in TV, film and theatre. For Doctor Who fans, she is best remembered for her roles as Johanna in The Crusade, Sara Kingdom in The Daleks' Masterplan, and Morgaine in Battlefield. She reprised the role of Sara on audio for Big Finish in The Companion Chronicles and Early Adventures ranges. Writer Simon Guerrier joins us for this episode of the podcast, and shares some of his memories of the times he spent with Jean. We'll also discuss his Sara Kingdom trilogy, which features the stories, "Home Truths", The Drowned World", and "Guardian of the Solar System". There'll be spoilers, so if you haven't heard them, we recommend you grab them from the Big Finish website and have a listen to them first. They are fantastic! We also have some special tributes to Jean from her Battlefield co-stars, Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred. Thanks to them both for joining us.Theme music by Joe Kraemer.Website - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.sirensofaudio.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on Instagram - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://instagram.com/audiosirens⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on Facebook - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/audiosirens⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on X - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://x.com/audiosirens⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on Bluesky - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bsky.app/profile/audiosirens.bsky.social

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Review - The Fearmonger This time, Phil and Paul travel back to the year 2000 and the early days of Big Finish with The Fearmonger starring Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred. With a story that was set 22 years ago, and with themes that are scarily relevant to the recent political climate in the UK, both of them are left pondering exactly who is the the Fearmonger of the story? They also discuss the recent furore of Ncuti Gatwa boldly announcing on a chatshow recording that he will be filming Season 3 next year, only for it to be quickly cut out of transmission. So this leads the pair of them to disappear down the rabbit hole of ratings and also discuss the fate of shows on streaming services.

Fresh off the back of celebrating 60 years of Dr Who last year and looking ahead to welcoming the 15th Doctor to the blockbuster show, Tony is joined by Sophie Aldred who played Dr Who's assistant Ace and the writer, broadcaster and Dr Who superfan, Matthew Sweet. Together they look back over an incredible history of this abidingly successful show, sharing all the Whoniverse gossip from the very first episode starring William Hartnell as the Doctor; the cutting-edge soundtrack created by Delia Derbyshire; hearing how Sophie got the role as Ace aged just 24; though to the show getting cancelled in 1989 and the creative ‘wilderness years' of Dr Who when it was off air but not out of mind; Russell T Davis's reboot and the new Doctors for a new generation. We also get answers to the popular questions: was Tony ever in Dr Who? What kind of Doctor would he have made and is Baldrick the ultimate time traveller? Hosted by Sir Tony Robinson | @Tony_Robinson With Sophie Aldred | @sophie_aldred Sophie played The Doctor's companion Ace in the original television series (to Sylvester McCoy's Doctor). She later reprised her role in ‘Ascend From Darkness'. She was in the last episode of Dr Who ‘Survival', before it was cancelled in 1989.

Over the years, whenever Dave has seen a notable Doctor Who alum at an event, we've endeavoured to switch on the microphones and grab his thoughts in a special, standalone episode of the show. A year ago this was Sophie Aldred in the original 'Dave's Big Day Out' episode, but prior to that, episodes like, 'When Dave Met Chris' have also entertained listeners who couldn't attend the events. Today, we talk to Dave immediately upon his return home from Supanova where he saw, and interacted with, Jodie Whittaker. And also caught the panel for Jango/Boba Fett himself, Temuera Morrison. Enjoy our chat, and contact us anytime at hello@theDWshow.net

This time we discuss the three Torchwood audio adventures that feature Ace and Mr Colchester, The Red List, Death in Venice and Sabotage. And we catch up with Sophie Aldred to talk about what she has been up to since we spoke to her last including her audio work and back to the televisual world of Doctor Who in Tales of the TARDIS.

Still coming down from the highs of the 60th, why not take a dip into the 7th Doctor's era with Dylan, John Isles and Gareth Preston?  In this episode they look at DWM comic strip 'Fellow Travellers' written by Andrew Cartmel with art by Arthur Ranson. Then it's  the New Adventure 'All Consuming Fire' by Andy Lane, which sees the 7th Doctor meet Sherlock Holmes.  And finally its nearly Doctor Who with the BBV audio 'The Time Travellers: Ghosts' written by Nigel Fairs. They also answer the burning questions: Who is Evil Dead Granny? Why is the 7th Doctor being a bit of bastard? Who is a knock off Servalan? 

In a break from our regular schedule, Dylan talks to Barnaby Eaton-Jones and Sophie Aldred about a new Doctor Who spin off 'Children of the Circus'.  This new audio drama from AUK is a sequel to 'The Greatest Show In The Galaxy'  featuring all the surviving members of the cast, in a musical story that centres around Christopher Guard as Bellboy and Dee Sadler as Flowerchild.

  This title was released in June 2023. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 31 July 2023, and on general sale after this date. Harry and Naomi are back in the TARDIS, travelling with a very different Doctor to the one they first met - and he has promised to get them home… The TARDIS takes them to Earth, but a dangerous era decades before their own. And when they visit the aftermath of a distant supernova, Harry is keener than ever to return to home comforts. But Naomi isn't so certain... Operation Dusk by Alfie Shaw (three parts) London during the Blitz, a city covered in darkness. It keeps everyone safe - until the darkness gets hungry. As the questions and victims mount up, the Doctor, Harry and Naomi are called in to investigate. Why have the Vashta Nerada on Earth started eating people? And, perhaps more importantly, why didn't they eat the cat? Naomi's Ark by Alison Winter (three parts) Caught up in a galactic evacuation triggered by a supernova, Naomi is separated from her friends, in the company of some very unusual aliens. The Doctor and Harry are stranded too - and any attempt to reach Naomi is at the expense of a precious, endangered civilisation - one that rivals the Time Lords for longevity and wisdom... How far will the Doctor go for his friends? This release comes with a bonus audiobook: Frozen Worlds by Katharine Armitage, performed by Sophie Aldred.

In the second episode of the season Dylan is joined by Mikey Smith to talk about the BBV video drama 'The Zero Imperative' written by Mark Gatiss and staring Caroline John as Liz Shaw and a bunch of people who used to be Doctor Who not being Doctor Who but being Doctors.

And as always answer the brining questions: Would it be ok to pop into Tom's house for some wine and cheese? Who has seen William Hartnell's wedding video? How did Mark Gatiss on on the old Y front?

On May 13, 2023, our Dave travelled up to Sydney to attend the Sophie Aldred fan event, run by our fellow Antipodean podcasters, The Sirens of Audio. In addition to being there to support the return of small, fan-run events in this country, Dave was also tasked by the hosts to conduct an on-stage interview with Doctor Who author, Jon Blum. This was originally to be a joint interview with Jon and his wife, the celebrated Doctor Who author, Kate Orman, however Kate was unable to attend on the day. This podcast is a half-hour discussion between Rob and Dave about the day in general, followed by about half an hour of audio from the Jon Blum chat. As we mention on the podcast, the audio of the Blum interview isn't up to our usual podcast standards, but we're sure you'd rather hear a version of the chat than nothing at all, so we include it here. Enjoy! Tweet us, Facebook us or email us at hello@thedwshow.net
