HeyJaredDoctor Who: We're All Stories in the End
We're all just stories in the end. It's as true for the Doctor as it is for any of us. If, like me, you’ve grown up reading the Target novelisations, the Virgin New Adventures, the BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures, the New Series Adventures, and a whole heap of standalone…

The Besheshra Bash (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It's time for another Eighth Doctor story! In one of the most egregious displays of naked hypocrisy, Iain and Ryan take offence at some childish, scatological humour while discussing Nick Walter's short story "The Besheshra Bash", which is available in Obverse Books' excellent collection Party Like It's 1998 .

Just War by Lance Parkin (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One of the very best Virgin-era Doctor Who novels comes under the microscope this episode.

Read excerpt

The Changing Face of Doctor Who: The Ambassadors of Death by Terrance Dicks (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Myself and Harry try, but largely fail, to find anything new to say about uncle Terrance's excellent novelisation of The Ambassadors of Death. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Knocky Nine Doors (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What childishness is this? Iain and Ryan bang on your door then run away giggling. Also there's a discussion of the lovely Ian Hayles' short story Knocky Nine Doors from Obverse Books' Party Like it's 1998 . Why not buy a copy, for a very good cause. Hosted on Acast.
