Latest Podcast Episodes

It’s bye bye Billy as my classic series rewatch reaches the end of the first Doctor’s era, but it’s hello Cybermen as they make their debut appearance we’ll see more of them again in the Troughton era but I have to admit to having a soft spot for their creepy voices in this first appearance.

 

We’ll welcome in the Troughton era next time but then the classic series reviews will take a short break for a couple of event shows to mark the 10th anniversary of Doctor’s Who’s return have been umming and erring how to mark this and have concluded doing some episode commentaries seems like the best idea.

The News

With the new 9th Doctor comic run from Titan quickly approaching a few more variant covers have popped up. They have the same mix of photographic and comic art style as we've seen with the 10th, 11th and 12th Doctor comics. You can check them out here and as you can see they look great. Can't wait for these.

Horror Channel coming to Freeview right now! As you listen to this podcast on launch day (Friday 13th March) you should be able to tune into the Horror Channel on channel Freeview 70. This is good news for Who fans as it means that you'll be able to enjoy loads of classic Who which they put out all the time.

"The Fires of Pompeii" Review

We zip forward to modern Who this week and take a peek at The Fires of Pompeii. Lot's of emotion, action and humour in this historic episode. Do we give this Tennant story plenty of love or does it enrage the fires below?

Thanks for jumping onboard the Tardis and continue to give us your thoughts on our review episodes. Next week it's a classic episode - Survival. Also remember you can enter our 10th Anniversary competition - details here. Until next time - Allons-y!!!

Episode 33 - We continue our look at the biographies from the worlds of Doctor Who with our resident merchandise expert Richard Nolan. We sort the wheat from the chaff and talk about the good, the bad and the indifferent examples from this rapidly growing market. Being literary types, we briefly touch on the Doctor Who Pattern Book and ask if one of the pictures contained within this lofty tome a premonition of the 9th Doctor?

So what was the resolution of the cliffhanger at the end of the last podcast where Al and The Rev seemed to have fallen victim to a paranormal attack at the Devil's Hump dig? Well, we're following the "Timelash" theory of explaining plot resolutions and not telling you. There is an elaborate and scary explanation and we'll explain it one day if we receive enough of a public demand.

Instead the slate is wiped clean as the Three Who Drool end their tour of Doctor Who drinking establishments and attend the glittering showbiz event which is the grand opening of “The Whoseum”. Each of the Diddly Dumbers presents to the museum a special Who-related item.

Listen in as they ooh and aah in ecstasy over the memories these items hold for them of Doctor Who. Hear The Rev reveal his musical tastes, Al his predeliction for pregnant pauses and Doc demonstrate a cardboard box he made earlier.

While Josh is basking in the dulcet tones of Lisa Bowerman, Ashley and Sacha are discussing if this story captures the era of the New Adventures at all, and questioning why there are two stories in a row that feature all powerful entities fueled by old, dead bodies. But before all of that fun can begin, your hosts answer the question, "What would be your perfect audio story?" The Oncoming Storm...

We here at The Oncoming Storm can't begin to tell you excited we are for today's story! You see, today, Josh, Ashley, Rachel, and Jeff are talking about The Last, by Gary Hopkins. We know things haven't been all sunshine and roses for the Big Finish stories lately, what with us being stuck in the Divergent Universe and all. But today, it all ends! With a title like The Last, we've come to the end of the Divergent Universe right? Right? Hello? Sigh. Fine. I guess we'll just do the story where everything dies, except the stupid Divergent Universe. The Oncoming Storm... This Time, we've got Effie from the Hunger Games! But totally crazier.

In this week’s show feature part to in our Adversary Archive of The Great Intelligence. We take a look at the independent film, Downtime, featuring a return on several Doctor Who characters. Then a recap of the GI’s part in The Bells of St. John and The Name of the Doctor.

Also, a look at some of the news of the week, including some guest announcements for LI Who and casting and location news for Doctor Who Series 8.

And, of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!

Second Doctor, Jamie, and Zoe This week we find another excuse to talk about the Daleks,where the Gav's would like their breath to spend time. Barb Wire, and really anything we can think of that's not talking about Space Pirates. But whatever you do [SPOILERS], don't watch The Space Pirates. "The Doctor, Jamie and Zoe become victims of piracy when they materialise on a space beacon, minutes before it is literally blown to pieces. So begins their quest to be reunited with the TARDIS, whilst treading perilously across the paths of the interstellar space corps and a gang of murderous bandits. The eccentric prospector Milo Clancey gives the travellers passage in his ageing spaceship, but the old man is himself the focus of space corps investigations. Could he possibly be behind the destruction and salvage of so many beacons in the sector? What is the position of Madeleine Issigri, who runs her father's mining corporation on the planet Ta  - and how might a locked room provide the answer to this mystery?"
