Hosts Josh and Alan review the Fifth Doctor story "Frontios" from Season 21, 1984 written by Christopher H. Bidmead. A colony of woodlice who can control gravity attack a far-future colony of humans who can't control gravity. Entering the scene is the Doctor, who also can't control gravity, with companions Tegan and Turlough. Can the TARDIS team keep the humans from being wiped out by the woodlice? And, you know, should they even??

First, though, we cover the week's news, and Oh My Omega was it a busy week for news! New Murray Gold music, new hints and teases from Russell T Davies, and the son of the writer of the very first Doctor Who story causing a ruckus.

This week Josh and Alan review the sixth installment in the Big Finish 60th Anniversary story -- "Once and Future: Time Lord Immemorial". Written by Lisa McMullin and directed by Helen Goldwyn, it stars Christopher Eccleston as the Doctor, David Warner as the (other) Doctor, Nicola Walker as Liv Chenka, and Gina McKee as the Lumiat.

"Slipping between bodies, the Ninth Doctor finds his TARDIS caught between universes as the cosmos starts to break down. A Doctor from another reality arrives and they join forces with Liv Chenka and the Lumiat to find the cause. Someone has desecrated the mythical Hall of the Time Lord Immemorial, where the sands of time from the multiverse are held. And those sands are running out…"

As we always do when we review these new Big Finish stories, we stay spoiler-free for the first half of the review and give clear warning before diving deep into spoiler territory.

Before that, though, we cover the latest in Doctor Who news!

It's two big thumbs up this week from Josh and Alan, as we jump back into the Eleventh Doctor era with "The Girl Who Waited" from Series 6. It was written by Tom MacRae and directed by Nick Hurran, and it stars Matt Smith as the Doctor, Karen Gillan as Amy, and Arthur Darvill as Rory. The TARDIS gang pays a visit to the planet Apalapucia for a holiday, but they find that the planet is in quarantine as the two-hearted natives are susceptible to a deadly plague. Amy accidentally gets separated from the Doctor and Rory but, when they try to rescue her, they arrive 36 years later in her timeline.

First we talk about this week's Doctor Who news!

This week your hosts Josh and Alan actually do tackle one of the all-time greats of Doctor Who -- "The Romans" from Season Two (1965), starring William Hartnell (The Doctor), Jacqueline Hill (Barbara), William Russell (Ian) and Maureen O'Brien (Vicki) and features Derek Francis (Nero). The Doctor and Vicki investigate intrigue surrounding the death of a lyre player en route to perform at the palace of Emperor Nero in London. Meanwhile, Barbara is sold as a slave at auction and Ian is thrown into the lions' den.

First, though, we cover all the Doctor Who news of the week, including a new trailer, news about Doctor Who Confidential, and the announcement of the next release in the Once and Future series.

This week Josh and Alan tackle one of the true greats (okay, maybe not), one of the undisputed epics (yeah, not so much), one of the absolute titans (not even close) of Doctor Who -- that's right, it's "Nightmare of Eden" from Season 17! Written by Bob Baker (or is that Barker?) and directed by Alan Bromly (at least for a little while), "Nightmare" stars Tom Baker, Lalla Ward and David Brierly. The TARDIS gang encounters two ships that have collided in a partially dematerialised state, carrying a bunch of drug smugglers, a supply of the deadly drug, and a scope that holds creatures and their environments from different planets in miniaturised form (wait, haven't we already seen that in "Carnival of Monsters"???). It's a production that was so fraught with difficulty that it made its director quit midway through and made both the producer and the script editor turn in their resignations!

Let us know your thoughts on "Nightmare of Eden"! We'd love to hear from you! If you've enjoyed the show, please leave a comment, review, or rating wherever you're listening! If there's a particular story you'd like to hear us discuss, please let us know at [email protected]!

This week hosts Josh and Alan are joined by their good friend Ashley Raburn to talk about "The Martian Invasion of Planetoid 50" the fifth chapter of Big Finish's ongoing 60th Anniversary series Once and Future. The First Doctor arrives in Victorian London amid a Martian invasion. But he discovers all is not what it seems when Missy appears... Soon, the Doctor is propelled into a future incarnation - the Tenth - but he is not alone in battling Missy and her Martian invaders. The Paternoster Gang are also here to assist. But can they offer the Doctor any help in solving his own degeneration mystery?

Fear not! If you haven't heard "Planetoid 50" yet, we keep the first half of our review spoiler-free and give a clear warning before we launch into spoilers. First, though, the episode begins with the gang covering the news of the week, including a couple of rumours and conspiracy theories!

Last week was Atlanta's biggest annual nerdfest, Dragon Con! Alan talks about his time riding the Dragon this year and what the experience tells us about the state of Doctor Who fandom in the wake of the Chibnall era.

Josh and Alan are the voices in each others' heads as they review "Two's Company", the fourth chapter in the Big Finish 60th Anniversary saga Once and Future. It stars Colin Baker as the Doctor, Camille Coduri as Jackie Tyler, Michelle Ryan as Lady Christina, Christopher Naylor as Harry Sullivan, and Michael Maloney as "The Renegade."

Back on Earth, the Doctor finds a clue in the search for the origins of the degeneration weapon. In his Sixth body, he meets Jackie Tyler and Lady Christina de Souza - thrown together by fate, or something more? - in pursuit of a powerful item of jewelry. Meanwhile, a Time Lord renegade has duped Harry Sullivan into helping him stop the Doctor's travels before they begin - and all are set on a collision course.

First they tackle the latest news about the upcoming television episodes.

After a bit of a break, Josh and Alan are back on the road to the 60th Anniversary! This week we review “A Genius For War,” the third episode in Big Finish’s ongoing anniversary saga, Once and Future. This one stars Sylvester McCoy, Terry Molloy, Ken Bones, and Beth Chalmers. “In the midst of the Time War, the Time Lords have received a communication from Falkus, the prison moon of Skaro. Its sole inmate, Davros, wishes to make them an offer. He will help them win the Time War... but only if the Doctor comes to his rescue.” 

Before that, though, we cover the latest in Doctor Who news!

This week Josh and Alan check in with the Eighth Doctor in the Big Finish audio "Day of the Vashta Nerada", part of the Classic Doctors, New Monsters Volume 2 box set, written by Matt Fitton, directed by Barnaby Edwards, and starring Paul McGann as the Eighth Doctor and Jacqueline Pearce as Cardinal Ollistra.

When the Doctor stumbles across Synthesis Station, he discovers that the Time Lords have sponsored a project to weaponise already-lethal creatures. But in doing so, Eva Morrison and her team have unwittingly used a colony of Vashta Nerada with a very unfortunate history of humanoid contact.

First, though, the guys catch up on all the recent news in the Whoniverse, including the reveal of the 14th Doctor's sonic screwdriver, new character posters, a new tease by Russell T Davies for one of the upcoming episodes, and the announcement of Season 20 on Blu-ray.
