Tim's Take On...

My Gallifrey One 2013 coverage commences with the podcasters panel featuring Erika Ensign, Luke Harrison, D Kaufman, Eric Stadnik and Jeff Walker. The disussion was very interesting but sadly I missed the start as I was dashing over from another panel at the time.

I'm back at Gally for the first time in two years so here's a diary of events up to and including the first lobby con, an event so crowded that even the muzak in the lobby couldn't compete with it's sheer power!

My classic series reviews conclude(for now) with Dr Who: The Keys of Marinus, as with a lot of six parters it seems at times over long. These reviews will continue later in. the year after my coverage of Gallifrey One and Big Finish Day 3.

My classic series reviews continue with a look at Dr Who: Marco Polo which is sadly absent from the BBC archives so I attempt a review via a recon and the CD soundtrack, not easy at all but I did my best.

My classic series reviews return with this curio of an episode The Edge of Destruction, it stars just the regular characters and the TARDIS but is remarkably gripping drama even though it's nearly 50 years old.
