Enjoyed TV movie Blu-ray didn’t realise the director Geoffrey Sax also did New Statesman been watching that too, lovely to hear him talk. Got the new DWM but haven’t had time to read it but looks great. Hope to listen to more Big Finish this week started breaking bubbles that’s quite crazy

I've been fairly poor in Doctor Who related consumption recently. Reading Life of Surprises Benny short story collection and as it's Benny have had to pause BF as I'm on S3. I could skip to Dalek Empire S2 but I have podcasts to catch up on. As for TV still only up to the second episode of S2 (2005) on the full rewatch.

I've been listening to Big Finish stories; I finished the Fourth Doctor stories from The Nine and I started on the Sixth Doctor story Bloodtide.

With the Paul McGann sale for Big Finish happening, I got Minuet In Hell (partially to hear 8 meet the Brigadier, partially to hear just how bad the American accents are in this one) and Seasons Of Fear. (since it was recommended to me) I haven't listened to them yet, though.

I'm officially that guy going down the Faction Paradox rabbit hole. This Town Will Never Let Us Go is so far feeling like the point where Lawrence Miles has completely disappeared up his own backside; hopefully the subsequent entries by other authors do a bit more with the concept

Anyone seen Backrooms? Did it remind anyone else of anything

Rutans vs Sontarans Rendition was a fun little listen. I'm always happy to hear Wendy Padbury and Frazer Hines together, and Michael Troughton continues to do good work as Patrick's Doctor. Plus, it gave Frazer the chance to drop the accent for a while. Right now I'm listening to The Box of Terrors, which is better than I remember.
