Doctor Who: We're All Stories in the End Podcast artwork

We're all just stories in the end. It's as true for the Doctor as it is for any of us. Over a hundred exciting stories appeared in the wilderness years, from Virgin Publishing and BBC Books, and it's these we'll be talking about in our book club - but we'll also be talking about our stories too, as fans, as readers, as humans. It would be lovely if you felt like joining us.

33. First Frontier by David A. McIntee

Oct 26 2024 55 mins  
Let's jet off to the red clay and sandy plains of Billy the Kid territory, the sublime state of New Mexico, in this episode filled with Alien invasions, Air Force bases, and some rather baffling Kreer advice (see what I did there?) from a familiar foe...

32. Father Time

Sep 28 2024 41 mins  
Join Iain and Si as they travel back to the 80's for a look at the EDA "Father Time" by Lance Parkin, and discuss 80's cartoons, Guns N' Roses, the secret of the Klade, and the TV episode "The Doctor's Daughter". Amongst other things... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

31. Falls the Shadow by Daniel O'Mahoney

Aug 24 2024 56 mins  
To discuss 1995's gargantuan New Adventure Falls the Shadow, I'm joined from UNIT HQ by Corporal Blake, who had as hard a time with the novel as I did, and of course by our resident reader Kevin, who gives a second opinion that pretty much matches our own. The book remains a challenging and at times unpleasant read, at the farthest edges of what Doctor Who novels can set out to do,

30. Eternity Weeps by Jim Mortimore

Jul 27 2024 38 mins  
It's the return of Jon Arnold this month, as we discuss Eternity Weeps by Jim Mortimore, the fourth-from-final New Adventure published by Virgin in 1997. And now I've just realised this range even predates the Blair era and now I feel so old I could cry. In fact, I shall. But while I'm doing that, you can listen to this most excellent of episodes, and you can follow me on the incre

29. Escape Velocity by Colin Brake

Jun 29 2024 34 mins  
After spending a hundred years tooling about with no memories or TARDISes, Iain and Mark Cockram from All of Time and Space meet in St. Louis for a long-awaited reunion and a bit of a chat about Colin Brake's Eighth Doctor Adventure Escape Velocity. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

28. Endgame by Terrance Dicks (sort of...)

May 25 2024 42 mins  
Join myself and Dylan "Goddam" Rees from Too Hot For TV to pick the bones out of this cold-war spy thriller from the pen of Doctor Who's greatest noveliser, Terrance Dicks. On the way, we also touch upon the related topics of whiskey, Justin Richards' careful padding, Axl Rose, 'Allo 'Allo! and Terrance's best-ever Doctor Who story. Hint: it isn't this one. Hosted on Acast. See aca

27. Emotional Chemistry by Simon A. Forward

Apr 27 2024 37 mins  
Join Iain and friend-of-the-show D.K. for a freewheeling conversation about the Eighth Doctor Adventure Emotional Chemistry, written by Simon A. Forward and published by BBC Books in the year of our lord 2003. We ramble over a wide conversational area with unexpected mentions of Terrahawks, Star Fleet and the actress Eva Green, and we have our first meeting with the last companion

26. Ea(s)ter of Wasps by Trevor Baxendale

Mar 30 2024 30 mins  
We're back to continue our journey through all things Virgin New Adventure and Eighth Doctor Adventures. This month, we're going back in time to a quiet village overrun with killer wasps and sentient nuclear bombs (a bit like Professor Bracewell in Victory of the Daleks, odd that...) Join Iain and Kevin to talk about this novel, and how Kevin is coping with all this reading he's un

Winter Special - The Specials!

Jan 27 2024 38 mins  
Join Iain and Harry (along with his former partner-in-nonsense Luke, just a homeless ex-podcaster now that WCCY is no more) as they discuss the four recent new episodes of television's Doctor Who: The Star Beast, Wild Blue Yonder, The Giggle, and The Church on Ruby Road, to prove a theory: that Doctor Who is divisive, that not everyone needs to enjoy every single story, and that no

Podswap! The Electric Sodcast

Dec 29 2023 40 mins  
Another chance to hear something new while I'm working on the Winter Special, which will be with you in January 2024. Until then, here's an episode of the comedy podcast I make with my podcast husband James. In the Songpoker episodes, we just chat about music, and since it's still Twixtmas, why not delve deep into the story of one of the biggest hits from the 1980's - Do They Know
