The Doctor Who Podcast

Just two weeks to go! TWO WEEKS until we get new Doctor Who - it feels like ages since last year's anniversary specials!



Join James and Michele as they revisit The Church of Ruby Road, specifically to talk through the many, many mysterious plot points and questions the episode asks. Multi-dimensional timey-wimey theories along with (yet more) attempts to identify Mrs Flood are the order of the day!



As always, you can contact the Campervan and let us know what you think of our theories - or more interestingly, share your own with us by e-mailing feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com, Tweet @thedrwhopodcast or find us on Facebook.



We'll be back in two weeks - just TWO WEEKS to let you have the DWP review of Episodes 1 and 2 - Space Babies and The Devil's Chord.



Enjoy the show!

The Doctor Who Podcast returns from a spring break rested and refreshed. This time, Michele, Brent, and Drew take the campervan wheel to steer through a flurry of Doctor Who news releases.



Up for scrutiny and discussion: episode titles, the ch-ch-changes new season trailer, official companion news, and new Doctor Who novels for your summer reading list. Then Ian and Michele travel back in time to review the first-ever short trip from Big Finish, Rise and Fall. Finally, the happy campers finish with a look at your latest feedback, including more discussion of the new Big Finish Range Dark Gallifrey. Should you want to judge it for yourself, you can hear the first 15 minutes of the Morbius trilogy at the end of this Big Finish Podcast from 31st March. Will the crew be as accurate as usual about things to come? Probably. But enjoy the show anyway!

Brings new meaning to "get out from under my feet"
Marty from theBox Room Podcast has as his special guest in the Doctor Who Podcast Campervan this episode Trevor from The Doctor Who Podcast.

Confused? We certainly were!

Marty, whose dulcet tones once graced the DWO WhoCast. Marty, who can be heard each and every episode telling our listeners where to send their feedback, and where the website is. He triumphantly returns for this fan reaction episode to the episode Cold Blood

The Campervan is back! After an enforced period of absence (it's been a whole month guys!) James, Brent and Ian pull the Campervan into a the usual parking boy in the interstellar lot and put their feet up for a good ol' geekout.



They cover midnight dropping in the UK, companion switch-ups, Season 15 on blu-ray and Big Finish's new monster-epic, Dark Gallifrey. Although precisely what monsters remains to be seen.

Keep the feedback coming in, email us at feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com, on X or on Facebook. You can also join out Facebook group and join in the conversations our listeners have already started.

Another special episode of the DWP?! Well, why not?! Join James and Ian on the South Bank of the Thames, shortly after this afternoon's screening of Horror of Fang Rock at the BFI to celebrate the upcoming release of Season 15 on Blu-Ray.



You remain of course, Most Welcome!

It's that time of year once again when the ol' DWP Campervan occupies the same time/spacial coordinates as the snazzy new Who & Companymobile. Join Drew and Brent as they invite Michele and James into their more sedate world of Doctor Who fandom where companionship and camaraderie are celebrated!



As is usual for January, the team take a look at the most recent animation of a missing story. This year, The Underwater Menace is put under the microscope.



So sit back and enjoy an hour of irreverent banter as the four amigos fire up the blu-ray player and watch hi-jinks of the highest order in Atlantis!

It's the first Special DWP of 2024!



Catch up with James, Phil and Adam from the wonderful Staggering Stories podcast at The Riverside Studios in Hammersmith London, shortly after the Doctor Who Appreciation Society's screening of An Adventure in Space and Time and The Final Test - Episode 4 of The Celestial Toymaker!



Enjoy the show.

Happy New Year!



It's our first episode of 2024! And it's not even February yet! Join us for our annual predictions episode as Brent, James, Michele and Ian dig out the Campervan's oh-so-reliable crystal ball and make carefully calculated predictions about what will come to pass in the Whoniverse in 2024. But that's not before the team turn the clock back twelve months and review the predictions  Michele, Drew, Phil and James made in Episode 351 in 2023! Just how many (few) did they get right? Tune in to find out!



Don't forget to let us know what YOU think will happen in 2024 - will the TARDIS turn into a turnip? Will the Doctor finally travel the universe with a cabbage as a companion?! And just what is it about vegetables in this post?! I must be hungry. What are you having for dinner?



Email feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com, Tweet @thedrwhopodcast or find us on Facebook to let us know!



Enjoy the show!

Happy New Year! It's 2024!! Where did 2023 go?!



The 60th Anniversary of Doctor Who is now behind us. Join James and Phil as they relive some of the highlights of their year (and completely forget about others) from the comfort of the DWP Campervan.



What was your Doctor Who highlight of 2023?! Let us know by getting in touch with us on Twitter (or X), Facebook or by email.



We'll be back in a couple of weeks with our predictions show for 2024!



Enjoy the show.

Join Brent and Drew for their take on Goblins, the 15th Doctor Who, singing, Ruby Sunday - and just who on earth is Davina McCall?!



Enjoy the show.

It's here! Hop on board the Campervan as James, Ian and Phil talk about Ncuti Gatwa's first full episode of Doctor Who, The Church on Ruby Road! What did they make of Ncuti versus Goblins in the first episode of Doctor Who to air on Christmas Day since 2017?!



As always, you can get in touch with the Campervan on Twitter (or X), Facebook or by email. We'll be pulling into the next galactic lay-by towards the end of the year when we will bring you our review of the 60th anniversary year.



Enjoy the show!

Join Ian, Phil and James as they preview The Church on Ruby Road, the next brand new episode of Doctor Who to hit your telly-screens on Christmas Day! Completely spolier-free - not through choice, but because once again the Campervan dwellers know nothing about the episode! Any speculation is purely that - if it happens to be right then that's pure coincidence!



We'll be back on Boxing Day with our review of the Christmas Special - we thought we'd take some time before we record on this occasion. Recording and editing a podcast on Christmas Day is unlikely to result in a Merry Christmas for the DWP hosts!



Enjoy the show - and Merry Christmas!

No new Doctor Who on our screens this weekend! How are you coping?! The sense of loss is palpable here in the campervan, so Michele, Ian and James get together over a mug of Horlicks and remissness about the three celebratory episodes we've enjoyed over the last month.



What do they think of bi-regeneration after the twist on regeneration was introduced to Doctor Who fans and the wider viewing public a week ago? Was the arrival of the 15th Doctor 20 minutes earlier than anticipated overshadowed by the 14th not wanting to go one last time?! And which DWP host is most likely to be found in the Campervan's vegetable patch shooting moles?! Tune in to fine out. :-)



We'll be back mid-week with a preview of this year's Christmas Special, The Church of Ruby Road. Phew, it's all go here in the campervan! Well, it would be if there wasn't a mole stuck in the exhaust pipe.



Enjoy the show!

Join Drew, Brent and Ian as they bring you a "more considered" take (allegedly) on the weekend's brand new offering of Doctor Who, The Giggle.



We'll be back shortly to wrap up our coverage of the sixtieth anniversary specials - before we head long into Christmas - more Ncuti, goblins and a brand new companion named Ruby!



Enjoy the show.

WOW WOW and WOW again! That was the final 60th anniversary episode - and what an episode! Join Michele, Phil and James as they share first impressions of this milestone episode. Allon-sy! Sniff.



Enjoy the show!

Join Ian and Drew as they take the Campervan out for a midweek spin and reflect on last weekend's brand new episode of Doctor Who.



We'll be back at the weekend to talk about David Tennant's latest final episode of Doctor Who, The Giggle!







Enjoy the show.

WOW AGAIN! Join Brent, Michele and James as they attempt to discuss tonight's episode in a calm, cool and coherant fashion!



Make sure you let us know what you thought of the episode - feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com, on X or join our Facebook Group!



Enjoy the show!

Join the DWP for their second (and much more considered) look at The Star Beast. Michele, Drew and Brent take the DWP RV for a spin!



We'll be back after Wild Blue Yonder airs on Saturday. Hooray!



Enjoy the show.

Its BACK! Join James, Ian and Phil for their instant reaction to the first of three special episodes of Doctor Who, starting with The Star Beast! Meep!



Make sure you let us know what you thought of the episode - feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com, on X or join our Facebook Group!



The more rational half of the DWP team will be back mid-week, with a more considered review of the episode.



Enjoy the show!

Surprise Number 2 of the day! You are MOST Welcome. :-)



Join Brent and Drew as they review this year's Children in Need Doctor short, featuring David Tennant as the 14th Doctor.



That really is it for today! Jump on board the campervan once again shortly after the Star Beast airs on BBC1 this coming Saturday!



Enjoy the show.

It's Doctor Who Day! Happy 60th Anniversary! Just before we get ready for The Star Beast, Drew, Michele and James bring you a special edition of The Doctor Who Podcast. Dig out your VHS, DVD, digital copy of An Unearthly Child, press play when the Campervan does and enjoy the episode with us!



Enjoy the show!

Not long to wait now! Join Michele, Phil and James as they jump on board the campervan to (loosely!) preview the upcoming Anniversary Specials The Star Beast, Wild Blue Yonder and The Giggle.



Whilst nothing was off the table from a spoiler perspective, story elements were not discussed - mainly because no-one knew any! However, if you have a *very* low spoiler threshold, you may want to back this edition up until after broadcast.



We'll be back after The Star Beast has aired next weekend. Or possibly sooner if you are very fortunate..... keep your eyes peeled on the Campervan's feed!



Please note - this episode was recorded (just a few hours!) before the 2023 Children In Need scene featuring the 14th Doctor - therefore it will be discussed on an upcoming episode of the DWP.



Enjoy the show.

WOW! Just two weekends into November and the amount of Doctor Who material is impossible to keep track of! Daleks to the left of me, Cybermen to the right......!



Join James, Phil and Ian as they attempt to cover everything their fragile brains can remember - from the amount of content available on iPlayer quadrupling overnight with the addition of Classic Who, to the wonderful Tales of the TARDIS! Pull up a chair, warm yourself by the fire (made from parts of the 13th Doctor's TARDIS!) and join us in the Campervan as we struggle contain our excitement.



Enjoy the show!

What's that?! Two DWPS in one week?! I'm afraid so....



Put the kettle on, pull up a comfy chair and get the fire going (now that summer seems to have departed for good) - and join Phil and James as they sit down and waffle about all things Who. New Doctor Who figurines (or "tat" as Phil calls it), Doctor Who Unleashed, new CDs of scores to Time and the Rani and Revenge of Cybermen - and a natter about Redacted 2 fill the airwaves this time. Be warned though - there are tangents! And more tangents! And tangents to those tangents! And tangents from the planet Tangent!



If that wasn't enough (it was), the episode rounds off with a discussion about a wonderful little Third Doctor and Brigadier story from Big Finish and Angus Dunican. What more could you possibly ask for? What was that? LESS, you say?! Well, hurrumph!

Arc of Infinity is the subject of Debut Who - a story from 1983 that Ian has somehow managed to avoid seeing, despite being on this earth for fifty years and a Doctor Who fan for thirty! Imagine seeing an Ergon for the first time in 2023?!



The first volume of Big Finish's The Diary of River Song comes under scrutiny from Michele and Brent.



As well as random campfire discussions about theme music arrangements, the new approach to marketing the show has taken, a pitch to Big Finish for an audio story featuring the Ergon and the Garm, Mark Hamill's Joker, spreadsheets and ex-possums - join the team for a feature length edition of the DWP!

Hello all you wonderful listeners!



With the imminent return (well, in six months time of Ace to Doctor Who, James and Drew follow the Yellow Brick Road where we first met Dorothy McShane in 1987 - and Dragonfire! Has it stood the test of time?



Before we find out, the guys take advantage of recording together for the first time in ages and basically, yabber about Doctor Who for 15 mins. Sanity is then restored in the form of Ian who presents the finale of our Nine Lives series. Looking back as Series 1 has been quite a journey and it's not without a tear that James and Ian review The Parting of The Ways.



Join us shortly for Episode 343 - if the (totally baseless) rumours are to be believed, we may have some rather exciting casting news to discuss! If we don't, then we'll have a in-depth critical analysis of Delta of the Bannerman instead. You are of course, Most Welcome.

So, Brent, Michele and Ian preview the upcoming Easter special (Jodie Whitaker's penultimate outing as the Doctor) and then dial back to the Sea Devils' debut and review... The Sea Devils! A classic classic story you might say.

WithJames and Tom abandoning Trevor this week some extra special help was called upon to review The God Complex.

Chip from the Two Minute Timelord podcast answered the call to action and joins Trevor in the campervan for the review.

We also play your feedback from the last couple of stories.

With a title like The Girl Who Waited, it wasn't hard to figure out who this episode would focus on.

Doctor Who presents us with another standalone episode, which Trevor, James and Tom share their thoughts on this week.

We also announce details of an exciting competition!

After checking the front door to make it was locked, leaving a light on and having the phone handy we settled down to watch Night Terrors, a creepy entry into the Season 6 lineup.

All three DWP hosts are in the campervan this week - Trevor, James and Tom.  Hear what they have to say about this story.

Possibly the most misleading title in the history of Doctor Who (right up there with The Doctor's Daughter, The Doctor's Wife and The Happiness Patrol) Let's Kill Hitler marks the return of Doctor Who to our screens for the second time in 2011.

James and Tom review this most interesting episode.

We also draw the winner of our competition from Episode 95.

Your feedback, as always, is welcome.  Send it through to

Trevor and James are in prediction mode this episode and we take a look at the rumour, speculation and tasty titbits about the return of Doctor Who this coming weekend.

Warning to all listeners - we discuss what we have learnt about Series 6B, some is fact, some is rumour.  But if you don't want to be spoiled then we suggest you join us next week.

Torchwood episode 5 and 6 are reviewed.

We also draw the winner of our recent Paradise Towers DVD competition.

A quick glance at the Wikipedia entry for Joe Lidster will show that he knows his Doctor Who and related spinoffs.

He has written for Big Finish, Torchwood and Sarah Jane Adventures, as well as the Bernice Summerfield ranges. When he isn't writing for them he is producing short stories on, you guessed it, Doctor Who.

This incredibly talented and busy man sat down with ourJames recently to talk all things Doctor Who.

I am sure you will find this a fascinating interview.

Our second episode for this week concludes the DWPs look at our favourite Doctor Who stories from each era of the show.

This episode starts with the umbrella carrying, question mark wearing 7th Doctor Sylvester McCoy, and finishes of course with the stetson sporting, custard loving 11th Doctor, Matt Smith.

We also review the latest episode of new Torchwood, episode 4.

In response to requests from many of our listeners the DWP presents the first part of our two-part nostalgia trip through the DWP hosts favourite Doctor Who stories.

Trevor, Tom and James will sort through each era of Doctor Who and pick out some of their personal favourites.

This episode we cover the first six Doctors. Watch out later in the week for the conclusion to our stroll down memory lane.

We also review the next episode of Torchwood, episode 3 of the current season.

Featured in this episode is a great song called "The Mind of Evil" from Billy Davies aka The White Robot, an awesome DWP listener in New York.

On the review front for this episode Trevor and James look at two classic era DVD releases from 2Entertain - The Awakening and Frontios.  These oft neglected stories from Peter Davison's final season as the Doctor have been given the DVD treatment and are ready to be appreciated by a whole new generation of fans.

We also take a look at the second episode from the new series of Torchwood, Miracle Day - Rendition.

Also in the show this week are some nice bits of audio feedback we have received recently.  Keep them coming, we love it.

The exclusives just keep coming at The Doctor Who Podcast - this week we are proud to present to you an interview out Tom had with former Doctor Who script editor, Andrew Cartmel.

We also have an exclusive track from the new album by Alex Day, Still Got Legs. You might remember we interviewed Alex in Episode #38. He is back with a new album of wonderful Doctor Who parody songs. We hope you enjoy the taster we present in this episode for you.

James and Trevor are in review mode this week as they tackle a recent box set from those bods at 2Entertain.

The Mara Tales set, comprising the stories Kinda and Snakedance from the Peter Davison era have been released in a shiny cardboard case. James has already laid his cards on the table numerous times in professing his love for these two snakey stories, but what does Trev think?

We also take time to review the first episode from the new series of Torchwood.

Also included is a bit of left over rambling from a recent recording session - all to do with some thoughts on Series 6.

We also draw the winner of one of our recent competitions.

Quite a packed episode this week, a mixture of reviews and some cracking interviews, bringing to a close the second of our special Big Finish related episodes.

James and Trevor review the first two stories from Big Finish's range of 7th Doctor "lost" stories - Thin Ice and Crime of the Century. These two stories were to kickstart the proposed Season 27 in 1990, before the axe of cancellation fell on the series and the entire season was abandoned.

Now Big Finish have lovingly created these scripts in audio format so all Doctor Who fans can hear what might have been if Doctor Who continued in its televised form into the 1990s.

Find out what the boys make of the first two offerings from this very special series of releases from Big Finish.

We also have interviews with Sophie Aldred, who played Ace alongside the Seventh Doctor, and also in these new Big Finish audios. Also on the interviewing roster is Beth Chalmers, who plays the new companion Raine Creevey.

Quite a packed little episode this week, the first of two over the coming weeks that focus on Big Finish.

James is alone in the campervan this episode where he reviews one of the latest trilogies from Big Finish, The Crimes of Thomas Brewster, The Feast of Axos and Industrial Revolution.

Also included in this episode are interviews with Mr Axon himself, Bernard Holley and Big Finish writer Johnny Morris.

A jam-packed show this week asJames comes back to the campervan, having brought back from his holiday a lovely little painted shell from the seaside.

James shares his thoughts on the Doctor Who Experience with his co-host from the Dad's Army Podcast, Oliver Crocker. Just what will you, ah, experience at the Doctor Who Experience?

We also review a book by author Alwyn W Turner, The Man Who Invented the Daleks. As the title cunningly says, it is a book about the life and times of Terry Nation, who contributed to Doctor Who and a wealth of other British genre shows.

We also have some copies of the book to give away in our most fiendish competition yet! Thanks go to Ross from the Creeping with Armstrong podcast for donating an additional prize as well.

Tom is all alone in the campervan this week so he dug into the mailbag to see what you have been sending our way regarding Series 6 Doctor Who.

And you have been very busy! Thanks so much for all your thoughts and comments.

Tom attempts to make a sizeable hole in the mountain of envelopes and emails as we listen to what our listeners thought of the second year of Matt Smith and Co.

Well, the good man has gone off to war (or has he), and has left the DWP Campervan at a sligthly loose end about just what to do for the next few months until he returns.

Luckily Chip from the Two Minute Timelord Podcast has some ideas on what we can occupy ourselves with, and in this episode he gets together with our Tom to provide some much needed analysis to what we have seen so far this year.

Join Chip and Tom for some fascinating insights and theories on just what this is all about.

Well, the time has finally come, our review of a Good Man Goes to War (aka The Only New Doctor Who You Will Be Getting For A While Thankyou Very Much)

Trevor, James and Trevor share their thoughts on this episode, which as is par for the course these days, some questions get answered and some don't.

The DWP Campervan is alive with dopplegangers this week as the combined mental powers of twinJames's, Trevs and Toms pass their opinion on The Rebel Flesh.

So it's time to see what the fans thought of the latest two offerings from Series 6 - Curse of the Black Spot and The Doctor's Wife. But it was a task that was too difficult for the DWP to tackle soJames got together with Steven from the Radio Free Skaro podcast to see if they could work it out.

As well as the usual scintilating banter about ratings and AI levels, we listen to and read out your feedback as well! Get stuck in!

Roll up roll up, what is my bid for this lovely bit of merchandise? The Doctor's wife - only 52.7 trillion miles on her, and doesn't she look good? Looks like she just stepped out of the showroom!

See over there, the Doctor Who Podcast review team ready to cast their appraisal over this fine offering today! Have a listen to what they have to say, then come back and place a bid for this once in a lifetime opportunity!

James was lucky enough to speak with Tom Spilsbury, current editor of Doctor Who Magazine recently.

James covered Tom's time with the magazine, and also discusses the recent controversy of spoilergate which has rocketed through the Doctor Who online community.

Join James in what is a fascinating chat with the man who holds the reigns of what many regard as the bible of Doctor Who information.

There is also a competition in which you can win a very special prize indeed!

Sponsored by Jacktar Rum, presumably... nobody is going to get that reference, nobody...
Season 6 keeps barrelling along and with a yo ho ho we come to the third episode - Curse of the Black Spot. Trevor, James and Tom discuss the merits and otherwise of this story.

We also play some feedback we have already received about this very episode!

I know what I think, but what do you think?
It is all very well and good for the fine folk in the DWP Campervan to rabbit on about the episodes, but what do you out there think? Trevor has the campervan all to his own this episode and covers the fan reaction to the first two episodes of the season.

And something a little different this episode we eavesdrop on a few fellow podcasters shows to find out what they thought of the episodes as well. So, if you like what you hear, please check out these fine shows - Two-Minute Time Lord, DWO WhoCast, Radio Free Skaro and The Oodcast. Well worth your time for a download and listen.

In this episode we read out and listen to the amazing amount of feedback we have received from you over the past few weeks - keep it coming everyone!

The resolution (or is it?) to many of the perplexing questions raised by the season opener are within Day of the Moon.James and Tom try to make sense of it all and pass judgement on this episode.

Nearly typed "planet" there....
What else would any self-respecting Doctor Who podcast be doing straight after Easter. Why, reviewing The Impossible Astronaut of course! The DWP is no different, and it is with a spring in our step and a thrill coursing our entire bodies that we review the season opener.

We also announce the winners of a couple of competitions we have had going over the past month.

With the premiere of Season 6 just around the corner (my gosh it's exciting, isn't it?) Tom and James sift through the mountain of rumours, heresay, facts, whispers and information surrounding what we are in for.

Needless to say, this episode is crammed with spoilers, both confirmed and unconfirmed. If you are in any way allergic to them, play this episode in about six weeks time.

This episode was recorded shortly before we learnt about the sad passing of Elisabeth Sladen. A proper tribute episode will be released in a few weeks.

Fresh from their victory and humiliating defeat at the Gallifrey 22 convention, the DWP team decided it was time to pit their wits against each other again, and hence the DWP Quiz 9 was born.

Trevor is quizmaster this time around and he has come up with some fiendish questions to pit against Tom and James.

The arena is set, the players are ready, the half time oranges are cut and ready to go. The only question is, are you, the listener, ready for this goliath-like battle?

The Big Finish Machine keeps on rolling.....and so does The Doctor Who podcast! Join James and Tom as they take a look at the recent 7th Doctor, Ace and Hex trilogy, Project Destiny, A Death in the Family and Lurkers at Sunlights Edge. James also interviews Steven Hall, the writer A Death in the Family – the most talked about Big Finish play in recent years. We also launch yet another competition with a rather nifty little prize and go through some of the oodles of feedback all you nice listeners have been sending in.

Let us know what you think of the episode by getting in touch with us at feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com – and be sure to join us next week for our Season Six preview!

Well, The Aztecs stand even today as one of the most shining examples of Doctor Who. It is a story that fulfils Doctor Who's original mandate to educate, whilst at the same time it entertains.

This story has always been a firm favourite of the DWP, and we devote our episode to talking about it. We also have an interview with one of the cast from, Ian Cullen, who played Ixta.

In this episode we look at a side of Doctor Who that isn't discussed very much - the partners of devoted Doctor Who fans.

Whilst we are all away at conventions, producing podcasts, watching DVDs, knitting scarfs and submitting scripts, just what do our partners do and what do they think of our obsession?

We bring in opinions from all over the globe, courtesy of podcasting friends.

We like talking about Big Finish audios here in the DWP Campervan - over the years they have produced some fantastic stories, featuring the vocal talents of the 5th-8th Doctors.

We thought it was about time to talk about Big Finish themselves. How have they fared since there beginnings during the Doctor Who "wilderness" years in 1999, through to their triumphant releases today.

What do Big Finish do well, what can they do better, and what do we want more of. A lively discussion indeed on a company that has truly carried the flag for Doctor Who for nearly 12 years.

To cap the show off, Tom was lucky enough to interview David Richardson, line producer on the Big Finish range. Tom talked to him about his work for Big Finish.
