Doctor Who: We're All Stories in the End

About Doctor 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 fiction, then this is the show for you. I'm joined by some of the most interesting authors, editors and podcasters and each episode is devoted to one of the hundreds of Doctor Who books that have kept the TARDIS in flight when there's no new TV series in our immediate future... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.

   The Besheshra Bash

   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 (https://obversebooks.co.uk/product/party-like-its-1998/). I guess it wasn't for us, but other people will really enjoy this one. So read it and judge it for yourself. There's lots of stuff in here about poo and following through, so if you aren't up for toilet humour, maybe skip this episode? I dunno, you do you.gonna (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/gonna) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.

   Do I Have To Do This All Over Again? by Jonathan Blum

   Iain and Ryan get poitical with this Eighth Doctor story that is literally ripped from today's headlines. Well, not literally. At least I assume not. I don't know how Blum operates... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.
