Dr Who

Doctor Who: Myths and Legends

A great box set of Who stories which is rounding off my collection of Tom Baker’s 4th Doctor stories.

Doctor Who: Underworld

Another Tom Baker story. Quite a good one too. I enjoyed it, and I’m not sure that I’d seen it before either.

Doctor Who: The Horns of Nimon

vlcsnap-2010-10-09-20h54m32s43

I hadn’t seen this story for a long time, and I’d forgotten that Janet Ellis (of Bluepeter) was in it too. As 4th doctor stories go it wasn’t amazing, but I’m glad to see it again nevertheless. I got it as part of the ‘Myths and Legends’ box set.

A really good Doctor Who blog

I just found this blog about classic Doctor Who called Classical Gallifrey. I doesn’t seem to have been updated for a few months, but there’s lots of interesting stuff in there.

Radio Times Doctor Who collectors postcards

I was lucky enough to get all of these when they came out. I’m not sure I’d call them ‘collector’s editions’, but they’re ok. A couple of them are superb pictures, the rest, not so much.

50 years of Doctor Who

Really pleased to get these in the post. Just how awesome are they!

Doctor Who: Sands of Life

It’s still a little strange to listen to Mary Tamm’s voice, but this is another excellent fourth doctor story, and it has a truly awesome cast as well. David Warner, and Hayley Atwell, as well as Toby Hadoke who I saw in Edinburgh last year with his one man show.

Doctor Who: The War Against The Laan

I’m looking forward to getting to listen to this soon, the next installment of the new series of the 4th Doctor stories.

Doctor Who: Dark Eyes

I was really looking forward to this box set from the 8th Doctor, and it was well worth the wait in the end. A great story and a bit of a change for Paul McGann’s Doctor too. I enjoyed it.

I’m hoping that there’ll be some more 8th Doctor stories in the not too distant future.

Doctor Who and the invasion of the dinosaurs

I only got this because it was part of a boxed set with the Android Invasion. The special effects are very far from special, but the story was excellent. Sadly it makes me wonder about collecting Jon Pertwee stories now!

Happy birthday Mr Baker

Can you believe that Tom Baker is 79! That’s amazing, completely amazing. I was just listening to him today, talking at the end of the latest Big Finish CD. He doesn’t sound 79 at all.

I hope he keeps on doing lots more audio stories.

Dr Who, The Auntie Matter

This arrived today, and whilst I’m looking forward to listening to it I also find it sad to think that Mary Tamm isn’t with us any longer. She was fantastic as Romana. A great Dr Who companion.

The Android Invasion

This is a great Tom Baker story, and one that I needed to add to my collection. It’s part of a two story boxed set called “The Unit Files” as both of the stories feature UNIT quiet heavily. Great stuff though.

I so enjoy these earlier stories. They take their time to unfold and get going and there is much more emphasis on the science fiction.

Well worth a watch if you get the chance.

The Key to Time: The Ribos Operation

After Mary Tamm’s untimely passing I thought I should watch all of these stories again, but for some reason I’ve been putting it off. Until now that is. I’ve just been watching this great story, Mary’s first. It’s excellent of course. A superb start to a huge story arc.

8th Doctor: The Witch from the Well

I listened to this a little while ago and was pleasantly surprised by what a great little story it was. I always enjoy stories where there are multiple simultaneous time zones involved. Although it invariably makes it a more complex to understand. But this was a good one. A great story with plenty going on and lots of pace too.

Thoroughly recommend it.
