Our guest this month is writer, producer, and director Chris Chapman!  Chris has directed many of the documentaries and special features in the Doctor Who DVD & Blu-Ray ranges and has also written stories for Big Finish.  Chris tells us how he got involved in directing, how he started writing for Big Finish, and what he thought of the new Doctor Who special, The Power of the Doctor.
Then Chris brings us his Pick of the Month, the long-running story of battling robots that spans 38 years of toys, comics, movies, and multiple TV series, Transformers!  Find out how we all discovered this franchise, its massive impact on the toy industry, and why it's survived for so many years.

Episode 82 - Movie Special #4



This month, podcaster Jason Miller joins us to discuss his weekly podcast, Doctor Who Literature!  It's full of insightful information and fantastic guests.  He's here to talk about what led him into podcasting, his recent fun-filled weekend at Gallifrey One 2024, and the exact moment he fell in love with Doctor Who.
Then we drive a stake through someone's heart this Valentine's Day month with Jason's Pick of the Month - the 1966-1971 ABC smash daytime hit, Dark Shadows!  Some of us are new to this show and some have been watching for years, but we all agree that this was an exciting, bingeable series.  Does it still hold up today?  And what about the two movies it spawned in its heyday?  And the 1991 Revival series on NBC?  And the Tim Burton/Johnny Depp movie from 2012?  Hmm...the less said about that the better.  Or maybe you disagree!  In any case, join us for this very fun episode!
Drop us a line about what you think of Dark Shadows on our Twitter (or X) account, @whoandcompany (https://twitter.com/whoandcompany) or email us at whoandcompany@yahoo.com!
