Doctor Who publishing entered a new era in 2005, with the arrival of a trio of hardcover books.
The second of these was The Monsters Inside, written by Steve Cole, who joins us to chat about the experience of something old - and something new.
Plus, it's the only novel (that we know of) which has resulted in not only the one reference on TV, but two!

227: The Monsters Inside

A podcast discussing Doctor Who-related items, more often than not in threes, whether stories, guests, or anything else. Featuring Big Finish's Kenny Smith, and in the early episodes, regular appearances from Tom Harris (the former Labour MP)  and David Steel (not the former Liberal Party MP, MSP and leader). 

Dave still appears, as do Dr John Bollan and Stephen Day, with Tom fleetingly materialising.

We also have a host of great Doctor Who guests using "Kenny's bottomless address book" (c) David Steel.

It's the second half of our two-part series, looking at the next vinyl release from Demon Records.

237: The Forever Trap

This week sees the release of a luxurious vinyl release containing six discs.
These contain a pair of original made for audio releases released by the BBC in 2008, with David Tennant and Catherine Tate performing them.
We feature the first of those two stories today, as Peter Anghelides talks about Pest Control. 
The second story, The Forever Trap, features in our next episode, ahead of the vinyl release on Friday.

And just like that - boom! - Steven Moffat is back on Doctor Who.
The Scottish former showrunner obviously doesn't bear a grudge, since Russell T Davies turned him down when he was asked to come back to the show, and he was back with episode three in series 14/40/one - Boom.
Dave, John, Steevie and Kenny share their thoughts on this potentially explosive storyline.

235: Boom

We're back taking a look at another Tenth Doctor novel, this time featuring the Doctor and Rose.
Today, John and Kenny discuss The Price of Paradise, which was written by Colin Brake.
Colin reveals his unintentional inspiration behind the story, in an in-depth discussion about his 2006 work.

And so it begins! Season 40/14/1, depending on your viewpoint.
Join Steevie, John and Kenny - and a brief cameo from Dave who ended up having to go to work at very short notice - as they share their thoughts.
What did they think of Space Babies? And was The Devil's Chord a step too far, as some have said online?
