Episode 149: The Church On Ruby Road Review

It’s practically impossible pleasing the entirety of Doctor Who fandom, but when Bad Wolf Studios and the BBC confirmed plans for the Doctor Who Christmas Special to return? It came pretty close. Staple of the British TV schedules for over a decade from 2005 onwards and much missed even by the general audience!

On Christmas Day 2023, we were served a steaming hot hour of snow, steeples, goblins and all the trimmings in The Church on Ruby Road written by returning showrunner Russell T Davies. Featuring the first full length adventure of our new Doctor and the debut of the series newest companion, Ruby Sunday.

Now a few months on we bring you a full review of the special: our initial thoughts on Ncuti Gatwa’s incarnation of the Doctor and best guesses as to where things could go from here. Join regular host Dan Hadley with original co-host Kyle Wagner returning to the console room! Alongside the ever-insightful Charlotte Shields for some late Christmas cheer! Timed to coincide with Disney+ repackaging the special internationally to launch the first season of this all-important All New restart. Stream or download Type 40: A Doctor Who Podcast HERE:

Episode 147: With Ian Levine

There’s been a massive amount of public interest surrounding Doctor Who since its debut. Association with it has both made and arguably ended fortunes. There are a select set of people who seem inseparable from it. Generally they’re those you’d think! Many household names and industry darlings.

A tremendously successful man in his chosen fields or Songwriting and Music Production. To fellow fans though, he’s perhaps a polarising yet undoubtedly fascinating person. He joins regular hosts Sarah, Simon and Dan for this extended exclusive new interview. Just as he’s wowing the Whoniverse with a brand-new project, to bring the missing episodes back to life.

Episode 144: & Company at Whooverville 14

Take your seat and listen up! It’s a special episode of our Doctor Who Podcast. The very first recorded completely LIVE on stage with special guests and an audience of companions, friends and fellow fans…

Last Autumn we were invited to cover one of the biggest conventions of the Doctor Who calendar: the 14th Whooverville event at Quad in Derby. Not only that: regular hosts Simon Horton and Dan Hadley hosted this interview panel, with three unsuspecting guests, which you can get to enjoy now in full!

Hear the boys’ question, tease and test their panel: actor Tim Treloar who’s plays the Third Doctor in ongoing audio drama releases. Jonathan Carley’s likewise been acclaimed for his work as the War Doctor on the Big Finish range. Whilst Gary Russell is undoubtedly one of the most recognisable and reliable names in Doctor Who publishing.

Our gratitude to The Whoovers convention organisers Stephen Hatcher & Andrew-Mark Thompson and Garfield Productions who recorded the material for Type 40. Whether you’re listening or watching we know you’ll enjoy this one-off conversation to stream or download HERE:

Episode 143: With Christopher Jones

There’ve been Doctor Who comic strips for almost as long as there’s been Doctor Who! The Doctor’s have rarely been out of British comics since 1964. In recent decades the international comic book market also published a succession of titles in the Marvel or DC format, employing some of the industry's most exciting talents to write and draw!

Christopher Jones is a comics professional: illustrator, storyboard artist and Educator from America who’s loved Doctor Who for years! Having worked for the “big two” and in television bringing to life some of pop cultures most colourful characters, he was a natural fit to draw classic incarnations of the Doctor. Now he’s returned to the Whoniverse as one of the creators involved in this exciting new graphic novel tying into the 60th anniversary, “Once Upon A Time Lord”.

Christopher joins regular host, Dan Hadley to preview the book, tell the story of his action-packed career and disclose the extent of his passion for our favourite television series. It’s the ideal conversation to bring our coverage of Doctor Who’s diamond anniversary year itself to a close. Available for you to stream or download HERE:
