This week we extend a warm Doctor Who Literature to author Nigel Robinson, who penned this week's Doctor Who novelization, an adaptation of the infamous -- but also wonderful -- 1967 Patrick Troughton adventure, The Underwater Menace. Nigel also walks us through the rest of his prolific career as a writer and editor, as we cover almost 60 years of fandom in just under 60 minutes.

Thanks so much to Nigel Robinson for his time in the recording of this episode.

This week's opening number was recorded by Jim Sangster.

You can also hear Jason, Si, and Frazer on Trap One discussing the animated release of Underwater Menace earlier in 2024.
