CHRIS CHIBNALL - ex Doctor Who showrunner, screenwriter, producer and author of the Nicola Bridge murder mystery novels - returns to the Who Corner to Corner Podcast for an incredible third time to talk about his brand new novel THE PARKWOOD MURDERS.
Following on from Chris's debut novel Death at the White Hart, The Parkwood Murders sees Detective Nicola Bridge investigating a murder at a popular nature holiday park mid-season. But with so many suspects, hundreds of guests and staff, not to mention lack of resources, growing unrest and a ticking clock, the challenge of uncovering the murderer seems impossible!
Of course we've read it, and of course we love it - and we've done our best to keep our discussion spoiler free. But if you haven't read the book yet, what are you waiting for? Go on - do it! Do it now! We guarantee you won't be disappointed!
Listen up as Chris talks us through his elevator pitch for the novel, his plans for future adventures for Detective Nicola Bridge, and the latest news on developing Death at the White Hart as a TV series.
In amongst the chat we find time to put your questions to Chris and ask him for his take on the current state of affairs surrounding Doctor Who.

It's time for a MASSIVE APOLOGY!
...And Geoff could NOT be happier!
As regular listeners of WHO CORNER TO CORNER will know from previous episodes, co-host Paul has repeatedly TRASHED the wonders of the amazing IMAX experience!
"Too loud!" he cried.
"Too smelly!" he raged.
"Claustrophobic! Uncomfortable and way too sweaty!"
Not to mention the now-legendary quote: "My home cinema is better than IMAX!"
And then he went to see the new SUPERGIRL movie at a different IMAX theater and boy has he changed his tune!
Settle in, dear listeners, and enjoy as Geoff cooks up and delights in serving his opinionated co-host with a MASSIVE mouthful of gramma's best HUMBLE PIE!
Of course, it's not just about watching Paul squirm (though that is fun!) we also touch on a number of related topics so check out the chapter list right here...

Well we didn't have long to wait for new Doctor Who did we? Yes, that's exactly how we're treating "CIRCUIT BREAKER", the latest attempt to spread a number of linked Doctor Who stories across multiple media platforms and formats!
Will it be more cohesive than "Time Lord Victorious"? Will it be more successful than "Doom's Day"?
We don't know, but if this first instalment is anything to go by, we're in for a thrilling and spectacular ride!
Starring the Fugitive Doctor (or just 'Fugitive' if you're a Millennial like Geoff) "Adversary of the Daleks" is the first full story of the Circuit Breaker series, a graphic novel from the god-tier talents at Titan Comics - writers Dulce M. Montoya and Dan Watters (Batman: Dark Patterns, Nightwing), and artist Roberta Ingranata!
We were lucky enough to be allowed a first look at the new adventure ahead of its official July 2026 launch, so if you're listening to this before it's hit the shelves, you'll get a sneak preview of the excitement ahead!

Now that the dust has settled on the latest round of 'shock' announcements, how are we all feeling about the future of Doctor Who?
We were always going to have to wait a few years (after the previously-promised Christmas special!) for new Doctor Who on TV, and maybe with a new team behind it - whoever that might be - we'll soon get to see a fresh creative take on our favourite show.
Or is the bitter pill of RTD's message to fans still sticking in the craw like an unwanted fishbone, making all of this very difficult to swallow?
While the future may seem uncertain, the legacy of the show remains strong, and Doctor Who is more than just a TV show, right? Could embracing creativity and community engagement help sustain the love for Doctor Who during its latest hiatus?
Listen up as we share our latest thoughts and listener reactions on what happens next for Doctor Who!

This week we take a rare break from Doctor Who and instead turn our attentions to some other stuff we've been enjoying recently - music, video games and the recent new STAR WARS movie: The Mandalorian and Grogu!
Along the way, we chat about the widespread negativity in online fandoms and look at why that might be. Is it simply because people don't like movies which fail to live up to their expectations, or are there more sinister reasons at play?
If you've got an opinion on this then let us know what you think - do you agree with our thoughts or is it down to something else entirely?
PLUS we talk about the joy of concerts and live music - and why Geoff absolutely did NOT jump into the mosh-pit at the Dead Pony gig in Camden!
We'll be back with more Doctor Who soon, but for now, check out our digression into movies, music and video games, and let us know if you'd like us to do more episodes like this in the future!

Have you ever wondered what it takes to make your own DOCTOR WHO fan film?
We have! Which is one reason we do audio dramas rather than fully-fledged video shoots...
However, one such creative hero undeterred by the daunting task of launching a full-on film production with very little cash is MARK BRAYof MB & Homeland Productions who are currently working hard on post-production of their latest Doctor Who film, Outlander.
Set in Dallas 1963, Outlander is a Doctor Who fan film which blends history, sci-fi, time travel, JFK and the infamous motorcade which led to the 80-second delay in launching our favourite TV show and its re-broadcast a week later!
We had a great chat with Mark discussing the ins and outs of film-making, and we're eagerly excited for Outlander to drop later this year!
Can't wait that long?
Here's the trailer: OUTLANDER TRAILER

In the absence of any new Doctor Who on the TV - and given that Geoff still hasn't watched The Daleks' Master Plan episodes that were recently recovered and shown on BBC iPlayer (so the boat has sailed on that one!) - we asked our listeners and followers on social media to ask their BURNING QUESTIONS that we could answer on the podcast.
And then Geoff suggested we talk about which SONIC SCREWDRIVER is the best one. He even had an answer prepared!
Thankfully, by the time of recording our listeners came up trumps and we had quite a bit more to discuss than the Doctor's magic wand, and what follows is one of the most bonkers (and slightly sweary) podcasts we've ever committed to audio - or video, if you're watching on YouTube.
And if you're wondering - yes, Paul did manage to catch The Dalek's Master Plan episodes and yes we do actually talk about them here amongst plenty of other interesting topics which we know you'll enjoy!
Of course the BIG QUESTION really is... Just who is Dave Tomato-Fingers?
You have been warned...

"Time Lord wishes are powerful… and the universe never gives without taking"
Our latest original Doctor Who audio drama, written, narrated and performed by Doctor Who TikTok sensation KATIE HAYNES, finds the Doctor on a secret mission - to buy a special Christmas present for her best friend, Yaz!
However, the universe has a different plan for the Doctor's festive holiday...
Offered a choice, could the Doctor ever live a normal life? Surely after so many lifetimes fighting evil across time and space, she deserves it, doesn't she?
What if a Time Lord wish could come true..?
If you think you know Katie, think again! Miracle on 13th Street is an absolute powerhouse performance, with Katie not only playing the parts of two variants of the 13th Doctor, but also narrating her self-authored story with her signature drive and energy dialled right up to the max!
This is Katie as you've never heard her before, and it's an absolute treat for all fans of Doctor Who!

As regular listeners will know, Geoff is a MASSIVE FAN of spooky stories AND the 13th Doctor - so you can probably guess where THE VIOLET HOUR ranks in his pantheon of favourite Doctor Who stories!
But Rafaella Marcus' latest Big Finish tale is more than just a supernatural mystery; it is a poignant exploration of the human experience, reflecting on the lengths we go to for closure and the dangers that may lie in our obsessions, however well-intentioned they may be.
So listen up as we reflect on the latest 13th Doctor story to hit the shelves and discuss some pretty deep themes!

What are YOUR TOP 3 Doctor Who stories of all time?
Can you limit it to only 3?
Even Paul and Geoff struggled to narrow it down.
And what of our listeners? From thousands of stories told across different media, can you possibly limit your fave Doctor Who stories to just 3 all-time bangers?

As regular listeners may have become aware, Geoff's love for Doctor Who has diminished of late.
With no new season on the horizon and rumours of yet another David Tennant return - not to mention the frankly weird and desperate ending to Series 2 "Oh! Hello!" - our saddened and deflated co-host turned to his best friend for comfort and inspiration.
No, not Paul. Geoff's best buddy it seems is Al Dewar, Creative Director at Character Options. And one windy night around 3am, whilst playing adventures with his new line-up of top secret Doctor Who figures, Al received a call from sad Geoff entreating him to help rediscover the love he once had for Doctor Who.
"Geoff," said Al, deftly moving a prototype [REDACTED] across the tabletop towards a freshly sculpted [REDACTED] to get a better look at the new [REDACTED] figure. "Get a grip. Jodie's gone. However, what about these suggestions for podcast topics..."
Several hours later a newly invigorated Geoff texted Paul to say "We're doing our Favourite Doctor and their Costumes!"
"Cool" said Paul. And the rest, as they say, is history!
So here we go. With special guest Al Dewar plus lots of contributions from our lovely listeners and followers on social, here's our lively dicussion on Your Favourite Doctors.
Who is YOUR Doctor? Is it the Doctor you grew up with? The one who resonated with you the most, whose adventures and approach to life touched your heart in some fundamental way?
Or is it the one whose costume includes celery?

This week on Who Corner to Corner, we're joined by Titan Comics' Doctor Who Range Editor, JONATHAN WILKINS to preview the final instalment of the incredible 15th Doctor and Belinda comic strip adventure, THE PRISON PARADOX!
Told over four issues, The Prison Paradox is a fast-paced thrill-ride packed with laughs and tears. With a story by Dan Watters, and art by Sami Kivelä we've enjoyed every line, every beautifully-drawn panel, so it was a delight to be joined once again by Jonathan for over an hour of chat dedicated almost exclusively to revealing the creative origin and ideas that fuel this extraordinary Doctor Who adventure!

[Transcript of text messages between Paul and Geoff #2862768/2026. Subject: podcast content suggestions]
PAUL: What shall we talk about in this podcast, Geoff? We've literally nothing to go on right now. No new Doctor Who for ages.
GEOFF: CBA
PAUL: Ooh! Cybermen, Banshees and Autons?
GEOFF: No
PAUL: [search request: 'CBA'. Search returns results on 'CBA - acronym, vernacular usage] Oh... um... right.. er... anyway-
GEOFF: Tennant's coming back. That's the rumour.
PAUL: What? Seriously? OK... er... let's start with that then, and see what occurs!
That's what happened. Honestly. We started talking about the rumours regarding the return of you-know-who to the show and then at around 7 minutes, Geoff cheered up and all kinds of topics flew across our virtual studio.

As the deadly DALEKS finalise their plans to assassinate the High Council of the Time Lords - presumably as part of the build up to the Time War but actually who really knows? - hosts Paul and Geoff unleash their own weapon: the very first figure set from Character Options featuring TEGAN JOVANKA!
Complete with an EXPLODED DALEK, a massive gun and a Dalek canister, this new Vortex Edition set from CO launches with impeccable timing - for us anyway, given that we were watching Resurrection of the Daleks, Tegan's poignant exit epsiode.
So join us as we take a closer look at the figure set, pose Tegan in a variety of ways and play around with her massive gun.
In-between all that, we try and find time to talk about the story we're supposed to be watching.

It's the space year 1984 and the DALEKS are back in London! This time it's all very secret, until a gun battle erupts in the heart of the city's rundown Docklands area between some dudes in future space-wear and a bunch of very SINISTER London Police.
Meanwhile, the TARDIS is being pulled through a time corridor and the Doctor, Turlough and TEGAN hang onto every piece of furniture they can as the time machine spins out of control!
And, basically, what the Davros is going on in this classic tale from Peter Davison's final season as the Fifth Doctor?
Join us and watch along in real time as we try to make sense of RESURRECTION OF THE DALEKS- a fast-paced, action-packed story which sees the departure of Tegan and the Daleks returning to Doctor Who in their own adventure, the first since 1979, in explosive style!

The Doctor receives a text message from an unknown caller and follows it up in the TARDIS to arrive in war torn Afghanistan. However, no sooner have they stepped out to admire the view when both the Doctor and Yaz are pulled into a dimensional rift that deposits them on a world called 'Rock', upon which a brutal war is being fought between the humans and the monstrous BANSHEES!

Instead we had a great chat with Lisa discussing not only the inspiration behind Lionesses in Winter but also the projects she could only hint at the last time she joined our show in February 2023! These include stories for Call Me Master, The Ninth Doctor and Rose, The Fugitive Doctor Adventures and many many more!

"Doctor!" Jamie shouts, astounded. "My kilt has turned a wee orange! "
"And everything is happening so quickly!" adds Zoe.
"Yes..." the Doctor growls. "I rather think that someone has been tampering with our timeline, turning four and a half hours into just ninety minutes! Oh my giddy aunt!"
In this week's podcast Geoff and Paul turn their groovy specs to the second Doctor's epic finale adventure: THE WAR GAMES!
... Or at least, the colourised, edited omnibus version recently released on blu-ray and BBC iPlayer with updated FX.
Is this version of Troughton's last hurrah a stunning modern-day re-imagining of an all-time classic? Does it make it easier for the young'uns of the Tik-Tok generation to access the grainy, old, slower-paced, black and white adventures of Doctor Who's immense back catalogue? Or is it an experiment as fated as the Chief Scientist's processing machine?
To test the theory, our resident Gen-Z, Freya, dials in to add her thoughts to those of our intrepid hosts!

In this episode Geoff and Paul grab their goldfish bowls and head off for an adventure on the Moon where they soon become embroiled in a deadly plot to destroy the Earth with the Mavitron! Sorry, the Gravitron!
Who are the mysterious figures stalking the Moonbase shadows, shooting electrics from their silver claws?
Who is the McCrimmon Piper?
And who’s been messing with the sugar?
Load up your copy of this classic Second Doctor story The Moonbase to watch along with us and find out!
PS. Apologies for Geoff's appalling SKY fibre which kept cutting out and messed up this episode a bit.

We're always dreaming of Doctor Who! So this week we decided to discuss our dreams for what we would do if we had THE POWER to make it happen!
Paul and Geoff each have a few things they would like to see happen...one focussed more on the show and one on the extended universe things...
Plus we hear from some of our listeners about what they would like to dream into existence if they could...

Doctor Who is our favourite show of all time and if you're listening to this podcast, chances are, it's yours too!
We wanted to do a new episode where we celebrated the things we love about Doctor Who because, let's be honest, the fandom online can be a miserable place sometimes...most of the time...
We each picked 5 things they love about the show to discuss and we asked our listeners for their thoughts too and got some great answers in!
So take a listen to us and other fans celebrating their love of Doctor Who and then why not let us know your reasons for loving the show?

The TARDIS has been destroyed and the Doctor, Tegan and Turlough are stranded on a planet far in the future with nothing but a hatstand and a pair of 'clever specs'! Not even a sonic screwdriver to get them out of this one!
Meanwhile, Turlough is going INSANE!!!!!
It's hardly surprising. For it seems the planet Frontios is under attack from the menacing TRACTATORS! Giant, alien woodlice dominated by the deadly Gravis, who has the power to control mavity (stop that! Paul) sorry, gravity and bend space and time to his will!
Listen in as Paul and Geoff, joined once again by uber Who fan Jonathan Wilkins (editor of Titan Comics' Doctor Who range), commentate through the second half of this classic Doctor Who story from 1984.

It is the end ... but the moment has (not?) been prepared for...
What we thought was a regular season finale turned out to be a Regeneration story as Ncuti Gatwa's Doctor bid farewell to us after two, too short seasons!
In this episode of our podcast, we look at both Wish World and the second part of the finale, The Reality War and discuss a whole lot of things including...
...and of course we tackle two of the biggest bomb shells to come out of this episode...
...the return of Billie Piper as...maybe The Doctor? Our reactions are polarized on this!
But one thing we do agree on is, the return of Jodie Whittaker's Thirteenth Doctor is a glorious moment to treasure!
And of course, we hear from our listeners with their thoughts too!

We're coming out of cryogenic storage to review this week's Juno Dawson-penned Doctor Who story - The Interstellar Song Contest!
We discuss the clearly big budget blowout (yoo-hoo!) on this episode, Juno Dawson's writing, Rylan being fantastic, the darker Doctor, Geoff's son watching this episode, Susan and... Mrs Flood.

The Doctor takes the TARDIS to Lagos, visiting a treasured safe place in which he can relax, tell stories... and get a haircut. However, he soon discovers that his new home has been taken over by New Management, and something is hungry for power!
Continuing the themes of stories within stories, stories about stories, gods and monsters, fairy tales, creation myths - and a heavy dose of Magical Realism - The Story and the Engine had at least one of us punching the air with absolute joy. And not just for the unexpected return of a familiar well-loved face (in fact there were many of those!).
Meanwhile, it seems our listeners were divided...
So settle down, relax, and let us tell you a story about a story. Just don't think about the giant, cosmic spider striding through the darkness...

We've got not one, but TWO episode reviews for you this week!
First up is The Well - we were both too busy to get this recorded and out last weekend (but our livestream hopefully made up for it!) but here it is now!
After that is this weeks episode, Lucky Day which sees the return of Ruby Sunday who has been offscreen since last season.
What did we both make of these episodes?
After an increasing enjoyment of previous episodes, did Geoff continue to like what RTD was serving up? And having quite strongly disliked what he had seen so far, how did these episodes fare in Paul's eyes?
And what did our listeners think?
There's PLENTY to discuss PLUS a frankly BRILLIANT intro to The Well review, so watch/ listen for that alone...

Welcome to the latest episode in the long line of Who Corner to Corner episodes, with your hosts, with the most, Ding Dong Paul and Rinky Dink Geoff and in this instalment of this podcast, the dynamic duo take a look at the spectacular episode entitled Lux from that science fiction show Doctor Who!
We're two episodes into season two and do we like this new episode more than The Robot Revolution or does one of us quite like it and is one not so sure still?
Or do they in fact, just not like it at all?
We also wonder which of our past audio dramas RTD has listened to before writing this episode...
We also hear from lots of listeners across Twitter, Facebook and Bluesky with their thoughts on the episode and we have a very expensive opening sequence this week, so listen for that if nothing else!

On a dark and stormy night, by the side of Lake Geneva, in a candlelit house that defies the senses, a group of young poets gather to scare each other witless with chilling tales of terror and horror.
Gatecrashing their party, the 13th Doctor encounters ghosts and skeletons, the attentions of Lord Byron and a terrifying walking cadaver part man part machine, a lone Cyberman hunting a sentient weapon that will turn the tide of a future war...
The story of Mrs Doctor, Mary Shelley and the psychotic Ashad who hails from a future in which the Cybermen seek to destroy the last of Humanity, is widely regarded as a high point in the modern era of Doctor Who.
So when we convinced Character Options supremo Al Dewar to watch The Haunting of Villa Diodati for the VERY FIRST TIME, we were pretty confident he'd enjoy it!
But how does the genesis of The Modern Prometheus retold in the Doctor Who universe sit with Al?
Listen in to find out as we collect the instruments of life around us, that they might infuse a spark of being into Al's journey through the escapades of the 13th Doctor...

Lost to the mists of time...carelessly junked by the BBC without any thought to the future of TV...the lost episodes of Doctor Who are the stuff of legend!
As of 2025, less than 100 episodes are still lost but they turn up from time to time - discovered in sheds in obscure parts of the world and some are rumoured to exist, held onto be selfish fans who wont share them with the world!
Fortunately, the BBC have worked to create animated reconstructions of the stories that exist via audio recordings and tellysnaps (photos of the episodes during transmission) so as to bring us the next best thing to actually discovering the lost episode!
In this podcast episode, we take a look at the animations and discuss them and the legends of the lost episodes...

And what now does the future hold for the show? Another cancellation and more wilderness years? A fan-requested hiatus designed to do... something or other.

First up on The First Time is Al's first viewing of Orphan 55! (How many times can we say first here?!)

In desperate need of the rare mineral ore, Zeiton-7, your intrepid hosts Paul and Geoff (after some bickering about the current state of TV and cinema in a world of disposable short content media) arrive on Varos in the space year 1985.
There they discover a dark world of paranoia and brutal justice, a nightmarish Orwellian deepstate in which sales of video nasties fuel a society led by opportunistic sociopaths who control their populace and their Governor through a process of deadly democracy. Here, voting YES or NO means something far worse than a place in a dance-off or another night in the jungle.
Yes indeedy. In another of our SIXIE SPECIALS, we take a deep dive into the murky thematic and narrative depths of the classic 6th Doctor story: VENGEANCE ON VAROS!
Widely hailed as one of Doctor Who's most sophisticated episodes - because it foresaw the advent of Gogglebox and I'm a Celebrity way before The Hunger Games was even a thing - Vengeance on Varos fed the fans of Doctor Who with many memorable moments and characters , not least one of the best villains of the 1980s, the greedy sales rep Sil from the Galatron Mining Corporation!
So, grab your food trays, fire up your telescreens and get ready to cast your vote on Varos' many burning questions.
Such as:

Thanks to the lovely folk at BBC Books we were lucky to get our hands on a MASSIVE haul of brand new Doctor Who Target books AND the debut novel by Bonnie Langford: Death in the Stars.
Geoff was busy on Horsham Film Festival duties but Paul decided to take Bonnie's book away with him on holiday so he could read it on the beach. Which he did!
As anyone who's listened to us before will know, Paul is very particular with his books, and arguably way too obsessed with 'science' for a show which features a magic police box and aliens who can regularly change their form when they get killed.
However, he is a massive fan of Target novels - often dropping into misty-eyed nostalgia as soon as anyone mentions "The Auton Invasion" or "Doctor Who and the Loch Ness Monster".
So what did he think of this brand new original novel written by Bonnie who played the novel's main character, ex Doctor Who companion of the 1980s (recently returned to New-Who) Ms Melanie Bush?
Listen up to find out the answers to all these questions and more!

Hurrah for Sixie!
Kicking off our series which will celebrate Colin Bakers' Sixth Doctor, his adventures, his companions and his audios - we're going back to the start and taking a look at The Twin Dilemma!
Infamously voted as the WORST Doctor Who story of all time on multiple occasions BUT...is it really as bad as those polls would tell you?
Is there more to enjoy in this serial than the preconceptions would have you believe?
Was the infamous moment between The Doctor and Peri a bad move - both within and outside of the show?
Should we have even approached this serial for review at all?!
You may be surprised by our take on it...
Plus, we hear from fellow Sixie fans including Lucy McCaul, Ian Banks, Gareth Bowley, Katie Hynes and Brandon Foley with their thoughts on the Doctor and his adventures!
And so begins a lot of love for this Doctor and his era!

Following that INCREDIBLE cliffhanger, we just had to return and review Spyfall Part 2 in this previously members-only episode!
In this epic adventure, things become darker for The Doctor and the Fam, but hope continues to shine as the characters and different strands of the adventure pull together to save the day.
We look at the overall story and some of the deeper plot elements within it, we discuss that Eiffel Tower scene, talk mindwipes, soft shoe shuffles, the destruction of Gallifrey, the perils of tissue compression and of course, Geoff gets in some Avatar talk as well... sorry!

Hello Whovians, Werewolves and Whizzkids!
Today we are joined are joined by a true LEGEND of classic Doctor Who - none other than 1980s Script Editor ANDREW CARTMEL!
Together with a pool of new, talented writers such as Ian Briggs, Marc Platt and Ben Aaranovitch - and with support from Sylvester McCoy, Sophie Aldred and (most of the time) producer John Nathan-Turner - Andrew ushered in a whole new era for Doctor Who which saw the show turning towards thematically more layered and characterful stories such as Dragonfire, Remembrance of the Daleks, The Curse of Fenric and Ghost Light to name just a few.
For co-host Geoff, these stories formed his earliest experience of Doctor Who and for Paul, they ensured that his Doctor Who fan-card was stamped with permanent platinum status.
Since Doctor Who was 'rested' in 1989 Andrew has written novels for Virgin's New Adventures and BBC Books, audio stories for Big Finish and become a successful playwright and novelist, creating the VINYL DETECTIVE series of books and, lately, the new PAPERBACK SLEUTH series, the second of which, ASHRAM ASSASSIN launches about the same time as this podcast.
We caught up with Andrew to talk about his new books and all things Doctor Who in a truly EPIC interview! So settle down, grab a bowl of unlimited rice pudding, slip on some vinyl and tune in before your tea gets cold.

It's here at last! The finale of season 1, or series 14 or Season 40 ... take your pick!
So what did we make of it?
Was it a bonefide treat for the intellectual senses, a meta-fictional rollercoaster ride through the history of Doctor Who and its relationship with legacy and fandom, a playful question to the contemporary deconstruction of traditional narratives through the kaleidoscopic macro lens of transient mass media?
Or did we think it was a total dog's dinner?
Only one way to find out! So listen up as Paul, Geoff and Freya combine their analytical skills and throw it all to the winds of time and space to discuss...
PLUS we also hear from Morgan, Hugh, Diddymus, Bea, and Gareth AND some of our friends from social media!

We're back with a review on this, the fourth episode, of the new series of Doctor Who, in which Ruby steps on a fairy circle, gets cursed, the Doctor vanishes and Ruby is stalked her whole life by a mysterious woman...

Millie Gibson being excellent in this episode
Spooky Who and whether this episode lived up to Geoffs expectations for that...or not
Gorgeous cinematography

Steven Moffatt returns to Doctor Who with a massive, high concept idea but does it work for us or does it fizzle out weakly!?
The Doctor steps on a minefield and things go from tense to tenser as the situation escalates in Boom.
Filled with sharp character moments, catchphrases, sparkling dialogue and big ideas, Boom is the first Moffatt script since he left the show in 2017.
We dismantle the minefield and tackle the new episode, discussing...

We have a Doctor in the house!
In 2015, Big Finish announced a series of brand new audio adventures for the Third Doctor. Seasoned actor Tim Treloar was given the task of recreating, in his own way, the monumental performance of Jon Pertwee who, for a generation of fans will forever be the Doctor.
Needless to say, Tim's portrayal was an instant success, perfectly evoking the wonder of one of Doctor Who's most treasured 'eras', and the Third Doctor's adventures in audio continue to delight fans both old and new worldwide.
We caught up with Tim for a long chat about how he came to the role and how he rose to the challenge of being the Doctor. We find out from him what it's been like working with Katy Manning as Jo Grant, Sadie Miller as Sarah-Jane Smith and Daisy Ashford as Liz Shaw.
We also tried to get an insight into what might lay in store for the future of the range...
How successful we were in this ... well ... you'll have to listen to find out.
Here are the highlights:
Of course there's more - much, much more! So tune into one of the most delightful and outrageous interviews from a Doctor you're ever likely to hear!

Appearing alongside legendary Who companion Katy Manning, as well as Sadie Miller who portrays Sarah-Jane Smith, as played by her own mother and Daisy Ashford who portrays Liz Shaw, as played by her own mother, Tim has recorded an ever-growing number of audios all of which transport us immediately back to the Third Doctors era.

Free at last from the confession dial in which he was imprisoned for more than 4 billion years, the Doctor rocks up at a diner in the Nevada Desert armed only with an electric guitar and a story he needs to tell, of a furious Time Lord hell bent on snatching his friend from the very jaws of a tragic and needless death.
The diner's sole employee seems ready to listen to the Doctor's tale of fury and woe, and although she looks familiar to us, sadly he fails to recognise that she's exactly the person he's been looking for to fill the hole in his memories.
Yes, it's CLARA! Geoff's favourite Doctor Who companion!
And the favourite of many others, it seems...

In the latest EXPLORERS episode, we finish up our review of Spyfall by looking back at Part 2!
In this epic adventure, things become darker for The Doctor and the Fam, but hope continues to shine as the characters and different strands of the adventure pull together to save the day.
We look at the overall story and some of the deeper plot elements within it, we discuss that Eiffel Tower scene, talk mindwipes, soft shoe shuffles, the destruction of Gallifrey, the perils of tissue compression and of course, Geoff gets in some Avatar talk as well... sorry!
(NB - he's not sorry at all! Paul)

In this episode, we get up early on a work-day and switch off our phones to take a close look at the highly-anticipated (and very secretive) second story of Doctor Who's 60th Anniversary season: Wild Blue Yonder
We talk about the plot, the isolated setting, the design of the episode, the primordial forces which lurk at the end of universe, and it's all very positive... So why is Geoff so torn about it?
We also discuss the 60th Anniversary celebrations in general, wondering 'could it be a little more like an anniversary?' and we have a heated debate about the presence of David Tennant as Doctor 14 but-really-10.
Or is 14 actually very different from 10...?

Happy Halloween! Who Corner to Corner Podcast presents "Our Revels Now Are Ended"!
London, 1886. In the heart of a quiet and foggy West End, The Doctor and Yaz arrive and soon discover an empty, boarded up theatre and rumours of hauntings within its walls. An investigation into the unknown begins and a discovery that memories can live on long after we're gone...
For Halloween 2023, we wanted to do something a bit different and so we began plans to produce a fan audio drama with a spooky feel to it...
We commissioned a script by the talented Lucy McCaul off the back of her pitch to us and then asked the well known Thirteenth Doctor cosplayer and regular voice actor on other fan dramas, Orianna Rose, to play The Doctor for us.
Professional actresses Emily Beach and Liz Drury came onboard to play, respectively, Yaz and Eleanor Hawke.
Your podcast co-host Paul brought his voice talents to two roles - Greville Hawke and Constable Drumlin - and his daughter Freya plays a pub landlady!
Narration and audio production was done by your other host, Geoff.
Our fantastic poster art was illustrated by Kelly Rosen and brings her Disney style art to the Doctor Who universe for our story.
Settle down with a hot drink, a few biscuits and enjoy our Halloween tale...

We step into the mists of time and go back to the very beginning to rewatch the one that started it all!
That's right, this Explorers episode is all about An Unearthly Child - the very first episode of Doctor Who, the one without which, there would be no 60th anniversary to celebrate this year!
Amidst the ongoing issue over whether we can or can't watch this story ever again, we dug out our DVD copy and watched again, showing why physical media is king at the same time!
We discuss this debut episode of our favourite show, the unaired pilot episode, some theories on the Timeless Child and the episode and a fair bit more as well!

In this episode of WHO CORNER TO CORNER, we're joined by not one, but two Doctor Who writing luminaries - Peter Anghelides and Simon Guerrier!
The duo join us to talk about their new book The Daily Doctor, an inspirational page-a-day guide to life gleaned from those moments of Doctor Who in which we learned to appreciate the small things as much as the big things, and know exactly when to run.
We also discuss Big Finish, Blake's 7, the Eighth Doctor novels, working with Tom Baker, the importance of spreadsheets and (unafraid to waste the opportunity of a good plug) Simon gives us not only an exclusive look at the forthcoming 60th anniversary coffee table book Whotopia but also some some insight into his soon-to-be-released David Whitaker biopic which investigates the life and work of Doctor Who's very first story editor!
All this and Geoff makes a hash of the authors' surnames (to his eternal shame), literally just seconds after asking them both how they should be pronounced!

The spaceship screamed over the London skyline, trailing a wake of oily black smoke through the cloudless sky. With a terrific 'BONG!' its wing smashed through the clock face of Big Ben, destroying one of the capital's centuries-old icons. The ship banked hard following the collision and with a final roar of its guttering engine, it bellied down spectacularly into the Thames!
This iconic shot from the 2005 Doctor Who revival is the work of visual effects master Mike Tucker - one of the few people to have worked on Classic and New Doctor Who!
Mike began his career working on the Sixth and Seventh Doctor eras before moving on to create Red Dwarfs and Star Bugs for the Red Dwarf show, amongst many others.
Returning to Doctor Who with it's revival, he was responsible for many of the model shots we all know and love including the BAFTA award winning work with Daleks on Day of the Doctor.

Let's get FLUXED! We're back in the library (right next to the bar) of a beachside B&B in blistering hot Dorset for Part 2 of our EPIC chat with former Doctor Who showrunner and creator of the 13th Doctor, CHRIS CHIBNALL!Juiced up on tea, coffee, Coke Zero and water (for Paul because he's sensible) we dive right into the challenges of creating Doctor Who during a pandemic, and for the first time in a public interview Chris talks in great depth about the creation and production of Series 13: Flux.
Just how close did we come to having no Doctor Who at all during Covid?
The behind the scenes story of Flux is an adventure almost as incredible as what we saw on screen.
But that's not all!
Despite the encroaching heat (and occasional tinkle of glasses and muzak from the bar next door) we also find time to cover plenty more worthy topics of dicsussion and debate, including:
PLUS: we put Chris in the hot seat (literally) and subject him to a game of The Grand Serpent's Asteroid!
We hope you enjoy listening to our interview as much as we did recording it. Chris was incredibly generous with his time and his insight, and yet, after spending the whole afternoon with him, it felt as though there was still so much more that the fans wanted answers to.
So ... with that in mind...

On a scorching day at the tail-end of Summer 2023 your intrepid WhoC2C hosts Geoff and Paul climbed into their cars and headed off to the beautiful county of Dorset, to a seaside B&B a mere stone's throw from the locations used in the popular TV crime drama Broadchurch which, as anyone knows, features a cast list as impressive as any Doctor Who spinoff...
However, we weren't interested in the stunning scenery of England's Jurassic Coast! Oh no! We had other things on our minds...
For not only was this session to be the first we'd ever recorded in the same room as each other, but something which we had long been planning and working behind the scenes to make happen was finally about to come together...
We'd booked the B&B's library for the whole afternoon and no sooner had we transformed this tranquil repose into a technology haven littered with strategically-placed mics and recording equipment, than a polite knock at the door announced the arrival of none other than real-life Doctor Who showrunner, CHRIS CHIBNALL!
Anyone who listens to us regularly will know of our mutual love for Jodie's wonderful Doctor and her stories, and now here we were, in the same room as the guy who made it all happen. As you can imagine, having the chance to talk to Chris about some of our favourite Doctor Who of all time was incredibly special and here, in our podcast, we can share with you, our lovely listeners, the entirety of that 3-hour+ interview across two special podcast episodes.
Settle down, because part one is gonna be a helluva ride for all Doctor Who fans as we hear from Chris about:

The situation seems dire! The Doctor and companions are cornered, unable to escape as an evil, horrific alien creature bears down on them and - CUT! Cue the howl of the theme music as another cliffhanger is born!
In this episode, we take a look at some of our favourite Doctor Who cliffhangers from across the years and discuss why they're so important to the appeal and longevity, the very DNA of our favourite show.
With an eye on the Classic era, Paul talks us through his favourites and Geoff looks to the most memorable of the Modern era for his. If you've listened to us before, you can probably guess Geoff's pick!
We also take a look at some of your favourites too and get into some tangents about streaming data and viewing figures, modern broadcasting and a dislike of the phrase "piece of content".

Time for a 9th Doctor classic!
Sandwiched between The Doctor Dances and Bad Wolf, Boom Town is the story our Twitter followers voted for as the Series One story they'd most like us to make a commentary on! And who are we to disappoint?
Picking up the story of Blon Fel-Fotch Passameer-Day Slitheen (or Margaret) who escaped the deadly missile hit on 10 Downing Street at the end of Aliens of London/ World War Three, is this just a simple throwaway 'filler' episode caught between two powerful giants, or a unique character piece on which pivots a number of themes that become far more significant as the Russell T Davies era progresses?
Let's find out together!

Here it is! Our 100th episode! 100 weekly episodes of Who Corner to Corner recorded to date - brilliant!
For this milestone episode, we racked our brains on how best to celebrate the achievement so we turned it over to you and asked you to send us questions on Doctor Who...or anything else at all!
So we talk about a whole load of things here including how we met, how the podcast name was originated, whether we have liked or disliked a story more upon rewatch, what would we podcast about if not Doctor Who (there's a good answer here), which guest would we most like to get on the show (it's surely obvious), who our favourite companions are, what videogames we play and much, much more!
Plus! Geoff is challenged to a game of The Grand Serpents Asteroid as well!

Who Corner to Corner: Great guests and 100% positive Doctor Who chat!
Threaded through the entire 60+ years of Doctor Who there lurks a handful of stories that drop mountains into what we think of as the placid waters of the show's 'canon' or 'lore'.
Stories such as The Time Meddler, which first introduced us to another fugitive from the Doctor's home planet, or The War Games which transported viewers to its hallowed halls for the very first time, or The Deadly Assassin which gave us a whistle-stop tour of Gallifrey and established much of what has since been taken as the unshakeable truth of the Time Lords' heirarchy, history and way of life.
There are others too: The Three Doctors introduced us to one of the Time Lords' founders whilst The Five Doctors explored the hitherto unheard-of Dark Times of Gallifrey. There's Remembrance of the Daleks too, and Silver Nemesis, both of which suggested there may be more to the Doctor than we thought we knew.
Let's not forget 1976's The Brain of Morbius, which first posited the possibility that there may have been more incarnations of the Doctor which existed prior to what we fans think of as his first.
Fugitive of the Judoon arguably drops the most explosive bombshell into the canon of Doctor Who than any of these, not only confirming that the Doctor has more faces than she can remember, it's a story which showed us one of those faces in action!
And no one outside of the production cast and crew knew it was coming!
Grab your disc, queue the story and join us in real-time as Paul, Geoff and Freya relive the events of what we all thought was going to be a fun romp with Space Rhinos in Glastonbury. The return of Captain Jack? Pah! Fugitive of the Judoon had many more suprises waiting to unfold in its mere 50 minutes of run-time than that...

Another fan-favourite episode with the Tenth Doctor and Donna is coming to print in the new range of Target novels and this week we're talking to the writer behind Planet of the Ood - Keith Temple!
Keith took the Doctor and Donna to the icey homeworld of the Ood and showed Donna the wonders and horrors that the universe, and humanity, has to offer.
We talk to Keith about how he approached adapting his TV episode into a novel, the bits he was able to add, the moments he could expand upon and how it feels to contribute to the iconic Target line!
We of course talk about the development of the TV episode itself as well as how Keith got started in the industry, what led to his work on Doctor Who (dreams can come true you know!) and what he is up to today.
Plus we ask a few quickfire questions and challenge Keith to a game of The Grand Serpents Asteroid!

In advance of the 2023 wave of Doctor Who Target novels coming out, including his own adaptation of a classic episode, we're joined this week by a name many will recognise from his vast contributions to the worlds of Doctor Who - Phil Ford!

What a career!
Due out in July 2023, is Phil's adaptation of his Waters of Mars script in the form of a brand new Target novel! This adaptation expands and enriches what has been called the "scariest Doctor Who story ever"!!

Plus we ask a few quickfire questions and challenge Phil to a game of The Grand Serpents Asteroid!

Avast, ye brigands, and gather round. Forsooth, we share with ye a merry tale of impossible heroes, fair maidens, villainous sherriffs and most devilish automata, all abound within the great Forest of Sherwood as 'twas many centuries ago.
Aye, with a twinkle in his eye, our hero, young Robin Hood doth trade banter and larks with a be-frowned grey-haired physic of dubious origin who dares question his impunity, nay, even his corporeal existence!
Meanwhile, testing the bounds of this fiction further, our genial hosts Mr. Geoff and Mr. Paul bestow upon our story as it unfoldeth, a chorus of omnipotent oration, where one doth take up the position of adoring admirer, the other that of cowardly cynic.
But which is which..?
Dare ye partake in revelry simultanous to the emerging tale?
Aye. Plug yeself in at once and let us begin...

The latest episode in our ESSENTIAL series takes a diversion from Doctors to talk DALEKS!
We're taking a look at stories we feel are ESSENTIAL viewing for the pepperpot baddies - not necessarily stories you must watch to get the bigger picture but could be ones we really enjoy on their own merits.
Paul takes a look at Classic Who whilst Geoff peruses Modern Who. Their task: to select 5 essential Dalek stories each.
PLUS we live tweet to get a guage on our listeners' favourite Dalek stories as we record which is all a bit wibbly wobbly... ah, you know the rest!
So join us as we get stuck into Skaro's finest... nay... worst and discuss their best!

As we get ready for the return of David Tennant and Catherine Tate to Doctor Who, we decided to re-visit one of their past highlights and record a commentary track for it!
Join us then as we go back to ancient Rome, specifically Pompeii, to a day etched forever into the history books but this time, the TARDIS Team are living it for real!
In the Fires of Pompeii, the Tenth Doctor and Donna go on a trip to Rome and accidentally land in Pompeii and then the adventure starts.
Neither of us have watched this episode in some years, although we did talk to the writer James Moran last year about his Target Novel adaptation (listen HERE) and decided we should take a look back at it on screen again!

Welcome to Part 2 of our most in-depth chat with other Doctor Who fans to date!
It's a long one for sure, but we're convinced you'll love it as there are many stories in here that all Doctor Who fans will find familar - from the trepidation of meeting your hero at a ComicCon (and travelling half way around the world during a pandemic to do so) to the terror of leaving your Doctor Who books in a garden overnight during a rainstorm!
From starving because you saved your dinner money to buy Target novels instead of food, to hunting collectibles in unlikely places, to discussing differences of opinion on social media and what being a Doctor Who fan was like in the so-called Wilderness Years, we cover it all!
So plug in, settle down and listen up as we rejoin our Twitter friends Dom, Frazer and Peter for another round of Meet the Whovians!

So this is what we came up with this week...next week, it could be completely different!
And of course, the big question - what moment takes each of our Number One spots!?

VHS! DVD! BLU-RAY! 4K! VAM!
This week, we're all in on Doctor Who Home Media! inspired by the release of The Collection Season 2, starring William Hartnell, we get stuck into a chat about our Doctor Who collections...
We extol the virtues of The Collection range, gambling on which site will fulfil your order first, panicking if an order isn't fulfilled and wondering just how much a copy goes for on eBay!
We admire the steelbook range and contemplate buying Season 9 on eBay for a bank shattering amount of money!
We remember the days when Paul rented the first Doctor Who VHS releases AND rented a VHS player to watch it on!
We ponder the lack of VAM (Value Added Material) on discs these days...
...and Geoff manages to get in not one, but two Avatar references this week!

Welcome to the WHO CORNER TO CORNER Doctor Who Pop Quiz!!
In this week's episode our regular hosts Geoff and Paul are transformed into unwitting contestants in a Doctor Who-themed gameshow hosted by the devious Quiz Master Freya!
By combining her mental powers with those of the Twitter Hivemind, Freya concocts a cornucopia of challenging conundrums that force our contestants to dig deep into their Doctor Who knowledge to survive the episode.
Will Geoff and Paul emerge eternally triumphant or utterly shamed?
Listen in to find out!
Who Corner to Corner: Great guests and 100% positive Doctor Who chat!
It's about time!
Listen in to this week's episode of WHO CORNER TO CORNER in which our hosts Paul and Geoff travel back in time to the Wilderness Years of the 90s to revisit the island of joy that is the Doctor Who TV Movie.
Starring Paul McGann as the 8th Doctor, featuring Sylvester McCoy's final moments as the 7th Doctor and Hollywood's very own Eric Roberts as the Master, the TV Movie was a glorious big budget, large scale attempt to resurrect a show considered dead and gone by the BBC.
The result of a troubled transatlantic co-deal between Universal, Fox and BBC Worldwide, the TV Movie thrusts the 'quintessentially British' Doctor Who into a landscape of 90s American TV tropes: hospital drama, urban gang war, cop chase and quirky romance.
Was it all too much for this little British show to hold? Was Doctor Who stretched too far? Or did the American framework and the ambitions of producer Philip Segal provide just enough fuel to re-ignite the British public's imagination and prove to the BBC that Doctor Who could indeed return for a new generation?
Listen in as we discuss the TV Movie's ambitions, its flaws and its triumphs!
Who Corner to Corner: Great guests and 100% positive Doctor Who chat!
We asked! You Voted! The results are in!
Which 13th Doctor Dalek adventure - Resolution or Revolution of the Daleks or BOTH did you want us to revisit?
So here we are, following up The Power of the Doctor by looking back at Thirteen's first and second encounters with her deadliest enemies, the Daleks!
Has Resolution aged like a Time Lord or withered like a Dalek locked outside it's casing for too long?
Have we turned on Revolution of the Daleks since initial broadcast and changed our minds on the story?
Plus, Geoff drops his theory on Insurrection of the Daleks... what could this be?!
Listen to find out more!
And as always, fellow fans let us know what they thought of the stories!
THE DOCTOR JOINS WHO CORNER TO CORNER!
That's right - not only do we chat with the SIXTH DOCTOR himself, COLIN BAKER...but he introduces the episode as well!!
Chatting before The Power of The Doctor went out - we discovered (as you will!) that The Doctor does indeed lie...very well!!!!
We talk about Colin's tour of Hound of the Baskervilles for Crime and Comedy Theatre which just started and is running through Nov 2022.
We chat about his time on the show itself, working with Nicola Bryant and Bonnie Langford and what some of his favourite memories of those times were including his relationship with JNT.
We find out which Big Finish companion permanently commandeered Colin's piano and what might be happening in the future for Sixie and friends on audio!
We find out about Davros' iPad and Crocs and which part of Davros Colin has at home!
We talk about corpsing on stage and bad acting habits!
We find out about his wife's reaction to his first day of filming Doctor Who and bringing him back to earth with it!
We also offer up our services to help make another Five(ish) Doctors Reboot for the 60th anniversary too!
Join us for one of our best chats as we spend some great time in the company of a Doctor Who legend!
We interrupt our regularly scheduled releases to drop this News Round Up!
In this episode, we take a look at...
Plus Geoff reviews and talks about his recent trip to see Colin Baker in the Crime and Comedy Theatre Group production of Hound of the Baskervilles!
We also mention our competition being run at the moment, thanks to Danilo Calendars.
And we want you to tell us if an episode of us and some friends playing the Doctor Who RPG would be of interest!
In the aftermath of Power of the Doctor's shocks, delights and tears we're once again joined by Ace actor Sophie Aldred!
This time Sophie is fully able to talk to us about her role in the story and how it felt to battle Daleks, Cybermen and the Master once again!
Listen in to hear us chatting with Sophie about:
This is one epsiode of WHO CORNER TO CORNER no Doctor Who fan can afford to miss!
...
"It is the end, but the moment has been prepared for..."
This is it. The end of the Thirteenth Doctor's era in The Power of the Doctor.
If you listen to us regularly, you'll know we have been excited for the episode itself but dreading Jodie's end in the TARDIS.
So... what did we think?
There's a lot to unpack:
Daleks... Cybermen... Cybermasters... The Master... Ra-Ra-Rasputin... Vinder... Ace... Tegan... Kate... and a whole load of surprises, shocks, laughs and emotions.
We won't spoil anything here but if you listen, we're deep diving into every aspect of the episode and what we feel was a perfect end to a perfect era.
...
We're going to tell some tales of terror in this episode!
We're bringing you our Halloween (Wholoween) special early this year because next week it's the Power of the Doctor and then the week after that it's ** **** on the podcast so we had to release this early!
In this episode, we're looking at a few of our favourite spooky Doctor Who stories...
Wrap up warm, prepare for chills, spills and, of course, thrills as we venture into WHOLOWEEN!
...
We're back with even more fellow Whovians this time, to talk about why - and we - love Jodie Whittaker's Thirteenth Doctor so much!
This time, we're joined by a previous guest and the guy who gave us the idea for these podcast episodes - Ethan! Alongside him is Morgan, Harvey, Charlie, James, Tony, Francis and calling in from the US is Katie and from Australia, Ian!
We talk about what Jodie and her Doctor mean to us, our favourite episodes in her era, our favourite villains and there's more than a few stories about meeting the lady herself...

**It's the end, but the moment has been prepared for...
Yes, it's the trailer for the 13th Doctor's Epic final battle!**
Listen in to hear Paul & Geoff's reactions to the first real look at the climax to one of our all-time favourite eras of Doctor Who. With rogue planets, exploding buildings, Ace on a parachute, Daleks, Cybermen AND the Master, The Power of the Doctor looks to have it all.
Speculation, excitement and sadness abounds.
Will we be sad to see 13 go? You bet.
With the Thirteenth Doctor's end just around the corner (we wish it wasn't), we decided to go and watch her debut episode again - The Woman Who Fell To Earth!
Four years later, how does it hold up?
Is that magic still there that made Geoff and Paul - and his daughter Freya - fall in love with Jodie Whittaker's Doctor?
Or do they realise they made a terrible mistake and it's all been built on lies and misinformation?!
What do other fans think of this regeneration episode?
Alongside all of the above, we discuss Tim Shaw, the debut of a new costume, Grace, Graham, Ryan and, of course, Yaz Khan!
Oh...and there might be a Clara mention again as well...
Follow us on Twitter!
Paul and Geoff are joined by Jonny "Passenger" Mathers AND a veritable cornucopia of Thirteenth Doctor fans in this episode to talk about why we love Jodie Whittaker's Thirteenth Doctor!
And do you know what we called the episode?
We Love The Thirteenth Doctor - that's what!
As we near the end of her era, we wanted to celebrate our love for Jodie's wonderful Doctor with fellow fans and find out why they love her, what made them connect so deeply to her and what it was like when they met her at conventions...

Fans of Big Finish will recognise her instantly as the new voice of Dodo Chaplet, the shortlived but energetic young companion from the 1960s who has been lovingly brought back into the spotlight by Lauren for Big Finish's First Doctor Adventures boxset.
Join us as we chat to Lauren about Dodo's accents (yes, that's a plural!), reacting to Yetis in a cupboard, working with David Tennant, Tom Baker and no fewer than THREE incarnations of the frosty First Doctor!
PLUS! We attempt to recreate a Big Finish tradition commonly known as "Other parts played by members of the cast" - AKA "Zombies in PAAAIIIIN..!"
Oh yes, we really do go there!

If we said this episode was about books, would you believe us?
Well, it is - lots and lots of Doctor Who books!
Paul and Geoff talk about the massive and ever growing collection of Doctor Who books from tie in novels to Target novels to reference books to comics and then realise that this episode could have gone on for hours if they talked about all the books they like!
So instead this episode covers a selection of the ones we recommend including...
...and, as always, we hear from other Whovians about their favourite books.

Fifty episodes! Wow!
To mark our 50th episode of Who Corner to Corner we thought it would be a great idea to look back at some of our favourite moments so far from our exploration of the Whoniverse from one corner to another... and beyond!
So we've recorded a special episode doing exactly that!
If you're new to WHOC2C then Hello! This is a great jumping on point to check out the kind of thing we do!
If you're one of our loyal listeners who tunes in every week then Hello Again and, from the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU for supporting us! Here's a chance to reminisce on episodes past or catch up on one you might have (accidentally) missed.
Take a listen to some of our favourite moments from our episodes so far, including our interviews with:
Sophie Aldred (Ace), Bhavnisha Parmer (Sonya Khan), Sam Spruell (Swarm), Kevin McNally (Professor Jericho), Jonny Mathers (Passenger), costume designer Ray Holman, photographer James Pardon and producer Pete Levy!
Plus! Special appearances by a few monsters you might know!
Yes, we've got it all and this isn't even scratching the surface!
We've also talked to Doctor Who writers Rona Munro, Ella Road, James Moran and Steve Cole, Flux director Azhur Saleem and many many more!
When we started Who Corner to Corner we had no idea what would come of it, but our show has exceeded our wildest dreams! We've found a brilliant, positive audience who listen each week, it's enabled us to bring exclusive interviews with the show's cast and creatives to everyone who tunes in AND it's given us an opportunity to speak to fans across the world who want to share their love for Doctor Who.
Jump in and join us as we continue to explore the Whoniverse for another fifty episodes and beyond!
And whether you're new to the show or have been with us since the start, here's a MASSIVE THANK YOU from the both of us, Paul and Geoff.

The end of an era approaches...
No, not the end of Who Corner to Corner!
As time moves forward, closer to the end of the Thirteenth Doctors era, we thought we would have a talk about the upcoming Centenary episode...
As of the date of recording, we know no title yet and very little information but this may have changed by the time this is released!
We both have a lot of thoughts about what we are looking forward to, what we are not looking forward to (regeneration!), what we are worried about and what we are just not sold on...
We'll revisit this episode after the Centenary airs to see what we were right, or mostly wrong, about the episode!
Have a listen...what do you think about the upcoming episode, what are your hopes, fears and dreams? Tweet us to let us know!

Sontar-ha!
This week, the leaders of the Sontar to Sontar battle fleet join us to introduce this episode...before failing miserably at it. Something to do with chocolate perhaps?
As you may have guessed, this episode looks back at the Tenth Doctor two parter The Sontaran Stratagem and The Poison Sky.
We recently ran a poll which listed some of our favourite Tenth Doctor episodes and the winning vote would be rewatched and discussed by us, and our listeners via comments.
However, we sacked off this poll once the sad news of Bernard Cribbins passing reached us and we used our powers as executive producers to pick these episodes to be the rewatched ones, so we could, in our own little way, pay tribute to the great Mr Cribbins.
So, join us as we tackle this earthbound epic which features the revived series' first appearance of our potato-headed favourites, brings Martha back to the show for the first time since...um...the last series ended actually, returns UNIT to our screens and gives us some great Donna and Wilf moments.
Let's go!
Oh! And stay tuned for another Sontaran appearance at the end of the episode…!
If you've read a Doctor Who book at some point in your fandom life, chances are you've read one written by the prolific author, Steve Cole!
If you haven't read a Doctor Who book yet, what are you waiting for? Go read one, then come back and listen to this podcast!
Steve has written many original novels for many Doctors including Jodie Whittaker's 13th Doctor. Back in the Wilderness Years, he was Overlord of the Eighth Doctor and Past Doctor BBC novels, ushering in established and brand new talent to both ranges as well as penning more than a few titles himself - though how he found the time to both write and commission so many titles a year is beyond us!
In this podcast we talk to Steve about his origins as a Doctor Who fan and his early starts in the writing business. We discuss the Eighth Doctor range of books that followed the TV movie, his approach to writing books for Doctors yet to see their episodes aired, plus writing for Time Lord Victorious, the Young James Bond books, his successful series for younger children Astrosaurs and his collaborations with Tim Peak, Sophie Aldred, Tom Baker and much, much more.
Including...sharks with frickin' lazer beams attached to their heads!
But why?!
Listen to find out!
It's here! The FINAL CHAPTER of Meet the Whovians 3, the latest in our ever-popular series of podcast specials where we share the mic with a bunch of other dedicated DOCTOR WHO FANS!
In this episode, recorded way before we even knew who the next Doctor was going to be, we finish up our chats with Katie - @_spacerose, The Welsh Whovian - @Jamezevans123 and Ethan - @Ethan_LMP by sharing their most memorable and wonderful encounters with the stars of Doctor Who, whether that's through conventions, location filming or even a chance encounter in a corridor!
We also speculate on the future of our favourite show and as an added bonus we even learn why WHO CORNER TO CORNER host Geoff had to rapidly exit the Charlestown Maritime Museum!
We're planning more Meet the Whovians specials so if you'd like to guest on one of those, please get in touch via our social channels below.

Grab your lava lamps and journey back in time to the 1960s with Paul, Geoff and our special host Dr Who as we review the big screen adventures of Peter Cushing as BBC TV's Doctor Who in Dr Who and the Daleks and its cinematic sequel Daleks: Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. both recently re-released in glorious 4k.
Join us on a THRILLING space adventure as Dr Who and his grandaughters, Barbara and Susan and the bumbling Ian Chesterton take a trip in Tardis to a mysterious petrified forest on a creepy alien world!
Then join the RESISTANCE as Dr Who, Louise, Susan and PC Tom Campbell (Bernard Cribbins) battle Daleks in the streets of future London with SPECTACULAR Dalek exposions and a flying saucer!
Finally, looking for the views of Gen-Z fans new to the films, we dragged angsty teen Freya away from her mobile phone to add her opinions to the discussion.

From the depths of the time stream to the space between universes and everywhere in between, director Azhur Saleem took us on a huge, epic journey across his episodes of Doctor Who Flux!
In this episode which is a must-listen for not only Doctor Who fans but also filmmakers in general, we chat with Az about his beginnings making short films, how he got into the industry, his early professional work and educational experiences.
We discuss how a short film he made - The Muse - led to his first major professional role, directing 3 episodes of Flux and his subsequent work on the Neil Gaiman television adaptation of his Anansi Boys book.
We hear about working with and directing Jodie Whittaker, Mandip Gill and John Bishop as well as working with Chris Chibnall, Az's favourite onset moment and onscreen moment from Flux.
Plus we hear some of his tips and advice for filmmakers and especially those with an interest in directing.
Then, Az, Paul and Geoff geek out about sci-fi films in general and Geoff practically explodes on audio when the topic of James Cameron comes up...

Just in time for the release of the latest Doctor Who Target Novels from BBC Books, we're joined by legendary Who writers Rona Munro and James Moran!
Rona's name is familiar to many fans as the writer of the final Classic episode broadcast - Survival. She returned to the show in the Moffat years to write Eaters of Light for the Twelfth Doctor and Bill. This story is the one targeted for novelisation... get it?
James was writing for Torchwood season two when he achieved his dream to write for Doctor Who, and we learn exactly how that came about. The Fires of Pompeii immediately established itself as a firm fan favourite and was vital in Donna Noble's development into the beloved character she became. This story was also targeted... can we use this joke again? No? Ok.
We talk to both writers about their love of Doctor Who, their career beginnings, theatre writing with Rona and short films and features with James. We discuss their scripts in depth, where the ideas came from, what it was like collaborating with the showrunners and we ask what's next for them and what they'd like to do in the Whoniverse in the future...
...plus we are very lucky to be serenaded by James' young daughter during our chat too!

Stalked by nightmarish figures, hunted by demonic creatures and haunted by terrifying dreams, the hosts of Who Corner to Corner podcast have turned to the episode Can You Hear Me for answers!
Oh dear!
Geoff and Paul have taken on a brilliant but divisive episode of Doctor Who, from Series 12, in which The Doctor and the Fam, and friends old and new, encounter an immortal god named Zellin who is fanning the flames of peoples nightmares...but why?
This episode tackles some massive, and major, issues including mental health, suicide, friendships and relationships, illness, heath, family and more.
We've looked at each character and the various themes within this episode to try and make sense of them, explain our thoughts on them and discuss why we liked this episode.
Of course, we have tackled the infamous ending scene as well. The Doctor and Graham discussing his cancer. What did we think of this scene? You may be surprised.
And what did other Whovians think of the episode and THAT scene? The responses run the gamut so take a listen to see what we all think and let us know what you think too...

Meet The Whovians 3 returns!

In fact, we talked about so much that we've made three podcasts out of these conversations!

Ella Road is one of the most sought-after screenwriters and playwrights of her generation. Her debut stage play, a dystopian science fiction/ speculative drama, The Phlebotomist was met with widespread critical acclaim and was adapted into a radio drama for BBC Radio 3. Since her debut Ella has written another stage production, Fair Play, performed at the Bush Theatre, and is currently involved in numerous TV and film projects.
Doctor Who fans will of course recognise her as co-writer (with showrunner Chris Chibnall) of the series' 2022 Easter Special Legend of the Sea Devils which saw the return of the eponymous prehistoric marine reptiles to the series, their first appearance since 1984.
In addition, Legend of the Sea Devils has been applauded by Who fans across the globe for further developing the burgeoning queer relationship between the Doctor and her companion Yaz.
We were delighted to have Ella join us for a chat on the Who Corner to Corner podcast, so listen up as we discuss the very relevant themes of her debut play and how she went about getting it into production, plus, of course, writing for Doctor Who with Chris Chibnall and touching the hearts of so many with 'that scene on the beach'.
Don't forget! You can join us on Twitter and Facebook. Leave your comments if you'd like them featured in the show, and let us know what you think of the topics discussed in our podcasts!

We discuss special edition packaging for film releases, the good old days of VHS releases, streaming, Disney+ making of documentaries and...

Welcome to WHO CORNERS TO CORNERS!
On this week's show, your perpetually positive host Paul and the officially optimistic Geoff are joined by the spectacularly sensational SOPHIE ALDRED - and what an ACE guest she is too!
Whilst you can't see it, you can literally hear the sparkly sequins of Paul's quiz show host jacket burning out the lens of his webcam!
In this episode we chat with the legendary Doctor Who companion Sophie about her time on the show alongside the Seventh Doctor, how the role came her way and how a first timer on screen handled the attention.
We talk about writing for the Thirteenth Doctor and Ace in the brilliant At Childhood's End novel and... is that mention of something new that Sophie has written as well?!
Of course the podcast can't go without discussing Sophie's upcoming appearance in the Centenary episode of the show but what we talk about can't be written... your ears need to hear it!

**In this episode Paul & Geoff journey back through the mists of time to a freezer centre in space!
There they join the hunt for a mythical dragon in the lively company of the Seventh Doctor, Mel and rogue trader Sabalom Glitz. Along the way they meet someone new, a girl from Perivale called Ace...**
Yes indeed! This week we are re-watching the first appearance of Ace in Doctor Who with the serial Dragonfire which was first broadcast on the BBC in 1987.
On our hunt through this classic story's many treasures we look at how method acting works when navigating fake ice, we consider the conotations of calamitous cliffhangers, discuss Clara's involvement in the story (Geoff), compare the similarities in this episode to Mission: Impossible 3 (also Geoff), liken it to Almost Famous (Geoff again!) and as always, read out a few listeners' tweets for their take on the episode (Paul, this time!).
Dragonfire is the final (televised) adventure of Melanie Bush and the first to feature Ace, and we look at the differences between each of these beloved companions. We also ponder how, maybe, modern day Doctor Who began right here...

The Passenger Form is here to take us - and you - on a podcast journey!
Where will we end up? What will we talk about? Who knows! But the journey is half the fun right?
This week we chat with Jonny Mathers who played Swarm and Azure's henchman Passenger in Doctor Who Flux!
We hear how Jonny got the role of Passenger, what it was like working on the show and with the cast plus we hear more lovely stories about Jodie and Mandip, we discuss his turn as a singing Lurch, his cosplay work, convention appearances, music and much more!

What is going on?! The Tenth Doctor returns? Donna Noble is back? There's a new Rose?!
In this BONUS EPISODE, Paul and Geoff desperately attempt to sort through the recent barrage of news, photos & cast sightings to figure out what the blazes is going on in the world of Doctor Who right now.
We talk though what we think might be happening, what may have already happened, what others think should be happening and what we're almost certain is definitely happening/ not happening though not in the way it could, will or didn't happen.
In addition to all that we find time for a quick chat about David Tennant's trousers and the "fake account" rumours that may or may not have fooled even the programme makers themselves.
It's been a tumultuous couple of weeks in the Whoniverse and it's got us both thinking about the future of the show, the danger of going backwards vs the excitement of what's to come, and our feelings towards the Tenth Doctor, the Thirteenth Doctor, other Doctors and their ears.
No, their eras!
But it's not just about us: we also hear what other fans think of the news.
As usual though, whatever our mixed emotions right now, our love for Doctor Who in all its many forms shines through, so sit back, have a listen and let us know your thoughts on this most exciting of times to be a Doctor Who fan!

Excuse our technical difficulties at the start of this podcast.
The internal dimensions of Geoff's recording booth exceeded its external restraints and Paul's recording space compressed its inner dimensions beyond the capacity of its external ones!
Madness!
It seemed only fitting our audio went haywire as we watched back Flatline - the winner of a recent poll we ran - to see if our memories, and yours, of this Twelfth Doctor and Clara adventure still stood up... or fell flat!
There's a lot of discussion about Clara and Jenna Coleman this week - blame Geoff for that - and we mean a LOT. We talk about the great visuals in this episode, ponder whether the train station and tracks are metaphorical for Rigsy, put a boxset request in with Big Finish, talk muppets and Angel and, as always, hear thoughts on the episode from other Whovians.

Meet The Whovians 3 is here!

We go on an awfully big podcast adventure this week with Kevin McNally aka Professor Eustacious Jericho!
We talk to Kevin about his time working on Doctor Who, going from the “worst” episode of the show ever (apparently) to one of the best ever and we find out what Jodie and Mandip did for his birthday – where’s the video of that?!

Prepare to be terrified as SWARM joins us on WHO Corner to Corner!
That's right - fresh from his role as Swarm in Doctor Who Flux we have actor Sam Spruell with us on the podcast this week!
We learn all about becoming Swarm and the difficulties of performing in Cuban heels, plus what it was like working with Jodie, Mandip and John. We discover just how early you need to wake up to be made up in Swarm's prosthetics and we learn just how warm... or not...the Roath Lock studios are!
We also ask the biggest question of all: Are Swarm and Azure brother and sister?
Sam talks to us about his start in the acting world, how his big break came out and how a recent operation helped him land the role!
We discuss his recent work on stage at Chichester Festival Theatre in Doubt, his love of the stage and the differences between stage and screen work.
Sam tells us about his first ComicCon experience and his thoughts about Whovians (it's all good, trust us!)
We also learn:
And much more...
So sit back, turn the lights down and let Sam's unmistakeable voice tell you all about the man behind the purple skull, the 'demonic matador' costume and the gold teeth.

We ran a poll, and you voted in your hundreds!
We wanted to re-watch a Thirteenth Doctor episode but as we couldn't make up our minds on which story to go for, we decided to let YOU, our lovely listeners, decide for us. A selection of no less than FOUR Thirteenth Doctor stories were put to the vote and Nikola Tesla's Night of Terror was the clear winner: so here it is - the WHO Corner to Corner re-watch podcast!
In this episode, the Doctor and Fam track a signal to New York 1903. There they encounter the visionary inventor Nikola Tesla, his arch enemy Thomas Edison and (naturally) a race of scorpion-like alien scavengers, the Skithra, who need someone to fix their spaceship.
There's a lot to love in this story and we got stuck into all of it.
So, kick back, plug in your AC-DC and listen up as we take a look back at Nikola Tesla's Night of Terror!

KILL THE MOON!
One of them loves it.
One of them ... doesn't...

Geoff has long extolled the virtues of this unique story, whereas Paul has never shown it any love whatsoever.
Does Geoff still love it? Will Paul come around?

Miles below the surface of Utah, a captured alien - a METALTRON - is being tortured on the whim of the world's most powerful and influential man: Henry Van Statten, who has made collecting alien artefacts a lifetime hobby.
The Doctor and Rose arrive in Van Statten's museum in response to some kind of distress call. And when the Doctor professes to know a thing or two about alien technology he is thrown in with the Metaltron and ordered to "make it talk".
Within seconds, the Doctor realises that the 'Metaltron' is in fact the lone survivor of a race he thought he'd destroyed...
So begins a journey of deep, personal discovery for the Doctor, the Dalek and Rose.
How far will the Doctor go to ensure the failure of his oldest foes?
What dark secrets does Rose learn about the man with whom she's been sharing the adventure of a lifetime?
And can a Dalek really change into something better?
Join WHO Corner to Corner as our intrepid hosts Paul & Geoff journey all the way back in time to 2005 to ask the question "Is 'DALEK' still good?"
Of course, the story itself hasn't changed. But our hosts are now 17 years older and wiser (well, older anyway...). So have their opinions on it changed?

We're going back to the beginning in this episode! The start - or, if you will, the genesis - of the Cybermen!
Yes, we're discussing the 20 year old Big Finish classic Spare Parts!
The Fifth Doctor and Nyssa arrive in a crumbling underground city patrolled by sinister police on horseback, a world similar in may ways to our own except that its cruel technology has but one goal: ensuring the survival of a doomed species.
Bleak, nihilistic, horrific and shocking in many places, Spare Parts is the ultimate origin story of the Cybermen for many Doctor Who fans across the world. It even provided the inspiration for the 2-part TV story, The Age of Steel/ Rise of the Cybermen.
But what did we think of it despite that? Does it hold up after all these years? Is it worth a re-listen?
Join us as we pick our way through the parts of Spare Parts...!

Let's be honest - the art and photography from the last three series of Doctor Who have been nothing short of fantastic!
Rich, vibrant, bursting with colour, life and personality!
Especially the Flux ones right? Chefs kiss!
There's also been some superb behind the scenes shots which have taken us deeper into the production on the show and shown us just how close the whole cast and crew are.
On this episode of our podcast, we are joined by the man behind the lens, behind the beauty and behind the scenes - James Pardon!

Fresh from their previous swim with the Sea Devils in Episode 15 of the WHO CORNER TO CORNER PODCAST, our intrepid hosts Paul & Geoff swap their string vests for Samurai Armour and step onto the brightly-lit command deck of Sea Base 4 in this sea-quel to the classic Pertwee stories that inspired a generation.
It is the year 2084 and Earth's massive power-blocs are at war, poised to unleash a hail of deadly proton missiles that will result in the mutually assured destruction of all human life on the planet.
Which is great news for Earth's previous inhabitants: the 'Silurians' and their 'Sea Devil brothers', who decide to speed things along in a decisive action to retake the world they believe is rightfully theirs.
Can the Doctor, Tegan and Turlough help these warring species find an amicable solution that will allow them to live in peace? Or is the Doctor facing the prospect of committing yet another genocide...?
