Episode 54 - Little Grey Men
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 37 minutes and 52 secondsIn this week’s episode we start our look at the gap year specials, including the computer animated CBBC outing, Dreamland.

And we play catch up on the wedding news of David Tennant to his fiance Georgia Moffat (yes, Shaun did forget some big news).
And of course, your feedback. Enjoy!
P.S. As per our debate at the end of the episode, on if the “Attack of the Graske” has ever been released, it hasn’t. From TARDIS.wikia:
“Although the interactive nature of the story would be compatible with DVD/Blu-Ray controllers, as of 2011 no home video release of Attack of the Graske has occurred or been announced. This renders it one of only two David Tennant-era Doctor Who-related productions (the other being the non-canonical Tonight’s the Night skit) that has not, and likely will not, see official home video release.”

Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 12 minutes and 36 secondsAs promised in Episode 53, here is Dr. Phil’s Big Finish Audio Companion. It’s a guide to some of the best Doctor Who audio plays that Big Finish has produced in the last decade.This is a piece that we had hoped to include in our first review of Big Audio episodes, but as Phil told us, the project “ballooned” as he began editing it and putting in the trailers to the referenced stories. We felt that it was too long to include in this week’s episode in it’s entirety, but agreed that it was too good to edit down. So, it debuts as our second Short Trip.
