Hey, Who fans, and welcome to The Big Blue Box Roundtable.

On this episode, we don’t really have much concrete news, so it’s rumours and hearsay. We discuss the public two-horse race for the showrunner role (there could be other horses in the race, who knows) and the rumour that Netflix wants more control over format and runtime, IF they are, in fact, the next streaming partner.

All interesting stuff, so grab a cuppa and settle in as we chat about all things Doctor Who!

Hey, Who fans, and welcome to The Big Blue Box Roundtable.

It's the first Roundtable of 2026!

There's plenty more chat about all things Doctor Who, so grab a cuppa and join us for the usual Roundtable chatter and waffle.

Hey, Who fans, and welcome to Episode 431.

Happy New Year, you lot. We hope you had a great Christmas and are now already cracking on your 2026 plans.

There's not a huge amount of Doctor Who news currently, but to kick things off, we celebrate Tom Baker's remarkable 92nd birthday. It’s incredible to see him still vibrant and full of life, a true icon of the show. Plus: Doctor Who director (and in the news for his announcement about a Blake's 7 reboot) Peter Hoar talks about something being a-miss in the recent Disney era; the BBC is getting close to announcing content for YouTube; three new Target novelisations and our Matt has put out our first Big Finish review of 2026 for The Thirteenth Doctor's latest story The Return of the Doctor.

Hey, Who fans, and welcome to The Big Blue Box Roundtable.

Hey, Who fans! This month Garry is joined by Harry and Matt to have a chat about the infamous Seventh Doctor story "Paradise Towers" as, quite incredibly, neither Matt nor Harry had seen this story before!

We also chat about our recent adventures at Whooverville 16, a Doctor Who convention in Derby, where the camaraderie among fans truly shone through.

Hey, Who fans and welcome to Episode 428.

Twenty years after their on-screen adventures, Chris Eccleston and Billie Piper are re-united for more trips in the TARDIS over at Big Finish. I've got all the details in this episode! "Back to the Powell Estate, where the Doctor’s past returns to haunt him, and out into the universe where enemies old and new are waiting... "

In other news, Doctor Who has landed its first-ever Emmy nomination — amazingly, after more than 60 years — in the category for Outstanding Choreography for Scripted Programming. (Not something I ever expected to tick off on the "Doctor Who Emmy Nominations Bingo Card"!)

Writer Mark Gatiss dropped some interesting thoughts on making Doctor Who in a recent interview, touching on the use of nostalgia, with this cutting line: "...It’s part of the reason we’re in the mess we are...". Oof! It's a great interview and Mark has many of us, myself included, nodding along.

We've also got a few other bits worth shouting about: the upcoming spin-off The War Between the Land and the Sea is rumoured to arrive this autumn, there's a fun interview with Ncuti Gatwa (including a random run-in with Matt Smith), and some insights from BBC Studios' Commercial CEO Tom Fussell on their continued commitment to the show.

Oh, and some tasty merch is on the way — including the long-awaited Season 13 Blu-ray Collection.

Sonic Screwdriver at the ready. Let’s go.
