We're back - and it's definitely about time!

Our seventh season is a shorter run than normal, as we bring you some episodes which tie in with the Doctor Who 60th anniversary, winter and Christmas.

We begin with a look at Endgame, the first Doctor Who Magazine comic strip featuring Paul McGann's Doctor.

We chat with artist Martin Geraghty, comics expert Paul Scoones, and feature the words of writer Alan Barnes (who sadly couldn't join us), as we look at the beginning of a nine-year run of stories.

IT'S ANOTHER Pieces of Eighth exclusive.

This week, we take a look at the 'lost' Eighth Doctor Adventure, Freaks, by Rebecca Levene, which was originally scheduled to be released in June 2000.

And now, we take a look at it, as we bring this adventure with the Doctor, Fitz and Compassion to life.

IN THE week of this episode's release, Big Finish were giving away the eighth Doctor's first audio adventure, Storm Warning, for free.

So, to celebrate, 16 of our listeners have sent in their thoughts on the story, which saw the Doctor meet his new best friend, Charley Pollard, onboard the doomed airship, the R101.

And who's that co-hosting? Their voice might be familiar...

WE'VE only gone and done it again - we've tracked down someone who worked on the TV Movie, and got an exclusive interview with them!

This week, we hear from Patrick Lussier, the man who edited the film, whilst working with director Geoffrey Sax.

It was a dream come true for Patrick, who was a Doctor Who fan long before being hired - and even now, he still listens to the Eighth Doctor with Big Finish.

Get ready for chat about D3: The Mighty Ducks, working on the Scream films with Wes Craven (and his thoughts on the spoof, Scary Movie), as well as branching out and directing in his own right.

JUST when you thought there was no more Eighth Doctor to novelise, he pops up in a Fourth Doctor book.

Stephen Gallagher recently wrote a new short story featuring Paul McGann's Doctor, which was included as part of his novelisation of Warriors' Gate.

Kenny and Matt chat their way through the story, which includes a brief reading from it, before hearing from editor Steve Cole and the writer himself.

A fuller chat with Steve Gallagher appears in The Power of Three podcast, episode 128.

IT'S THE end of an era on audio, as the Doctor's friend C'rizz departs in spectacular style.

We're talking about Absolution, Big Finish's 101st monthly range release, which was written by Scott Alan Woodard.

He joins us to discuss the story, and then C'rizz himself, Conrad Westmaas, shares his thoughts on his departure.

PAUL McGann is back in costume! Woohoo!

This week we find out how his new Night of the Doctor costume came about, as we speak to Long Island Doctor Who convention organiser Ken Deep, tailor Steven Ricks and prop maker James Sutton.

And Kenny is joined by Eighth Doctor cosplayer/the most famous Belgian in the world, Tinne Peeters.

REMEMBER when we didn't know what caused the Eighth Doctor to regenerate? And then in 2013 we found out, in The Night of the Doctor?

Little did we know that Russell T Davies had also plotted out the end of Paul McGann's incarnation, for a short story, which ultimately never saw the light of day until the Doctor Who: Adventures in Lockdown series, first published in the BBC website and later, in print.

We bring you a full reading of the story this week, complete with music and sound design, as well as Russell T Davies' introduction to the story brought to life by Big Finish's Narvin himself - Seán Carlsen!

Join Kenny and Matt for a discussion on the story, as they find a large number of similarities between Doctor Who and the Time War and The Night of the Doctor.

WE MAKE a fast return to the world of Big Finish Short Trips this week, as we explore The Hall of the Ten Thousand.

The Ten Thousand represent everything the Doctor admires. Ingenuity, creativity and triumph of peace over war. So, naturally, he’s taken Charlotte Pollard to see them.

Kenny and Tinne take a look at this tale, featuring interviews with producer Alfie Shaw and writer Jaine Fenn. You can find out more about her work at www.patreon.com/jainefenn

WHO WANTS to live forever?, asked Queen in their song.

We find out the answer to this question in Immortal Beloved, as the Eighth Doctor and Lucie encounter Zeus, Hera and a number of other gods.

Today, Kenny and guest co-host Tinne Peeters chat about Lucie Miller's fourth episode, and have exclusive chats with writer Jonathan Clements, talking about the story for the first time on a podcast, and actor David Dobson, who played Tayden/Ares.
