Doctor Who - Pieces of Eighth

There's a murder mystery to be solved, in a creepy old house.

The Doctor, Fitz and Compassion arrive, and this novel by Andy Lane and Justin Richards has a fascinating history, having originally been written without the Doctor.

Andy joins us to reveal more.

(With apologies for the varying sound quality on the interview)

The Doctor, Fitz and Compassion arrive in a gleaming chrome-city, with hover cars, and all the mod cons you could possibly want - and it's the year 2019.

But what's happened to the Mods and Rockers, who are still fighting each other?

We speak with author Steve Lyons, editor Steve Cole, and feature an audio clip from the spin-off release featuring the aliens from this book, the Makers.

It's Doctor Who vs the pus-y worms!

We chat with Trevor Baxendale about his second EDA, as the Eighth Doctor, Fitz and Compassion encounter the Spulver worms.

Editor Steve Cole pops by too, and we have our usual three readings from the novel.

Paul McGann and India Fisher have played the Doctor and Charley Pollard, live, on stage, in front of four theatre audiences.

Of course, Pieces of Eighth was there to cover this - with unprecented access before, during and after the production.

We bring you exclusive chats with author Robert Valentine, director Barnaby Edwards, and Alex Macqueen, the Master himself.

And Kenny and Matt are joined by other fans to share their thoughts on the production, mostly live, outside the Cadogan Hall.

The Doctor and Fitz are on the run, in Compassion, their new TARDIS.

She reacts badly when the Doctor tries to fit a randomiser into her, and throws her friends out onto an alien world.

Editor Steve Cole and author Nick Walters discuss this book, as well as Matt and Kenny's thoughts on it - plus the reviews from DWM and I, Who 2!

The Shadows of Avalon caused a lot of excitement when it was first announced.

Not only did it mark the return of Paul Cornell to writing Doctor Who, after his triumphant New and Missing Adventures work, but it brought back the Brigadier, and introduced a new incarnation of Romana.

It also had an astonishing daring moment that really did seem audacious at the time.

We're joined by editor Steve Cole, as Kenny and Matt discuss the novel and its impact, with archival quotes from Paul Cornell.

The Doctor and Compassion have been separated from Fitz. They're on one world, he's on another, living his best life.

But what on earth is going on? Co-author Steve Cole talks to us about writing this EDA.

And we finally discover who Natalie Dallaire is - and she's 100% real!

Remember when the Doctor and his friends had an action packed adventure with a giant vegetable monster?

No, not THAT one, we're talking about Frontier Worlds, by Peter Anghelides, who reveals the story's working title, his original idea for the cover, and more.

Editor Steve Cole drops in too, as Kenny and Matt discuss this Bond-inspired read.

Some corners of the universe have bred the most terrible things - they must be fought.

The Doctor, Fitz and Compassion are set to encounter an old enemy of his - the Fendahl! We take a look at The Taking of Planet 5.

Joining us, as ever, are editor Steve Cole, plus writers Mark Clapham and Simon Bucher-Jones.

The Doctor, Fitz and their new friend Compassion are off to the Obverse.

The trio encounter a giant jade elephant, and a host of other strange, strange creatures, as well as humans on a spaceship.

And if that wasn't enough, along comes the newly-regenerated Iris Wildthyme!

We chat with editor Steve Cole and co-author Paul Magrs, about how this little gem came to life.
