The latest 13th Doctor audio adventure from Big Finish is out now and we snapped it up! Why not? It's BRILLIANT! 

Following up on  a cryptic message from The Tourist, the Doctor and Yaz find themselves onboard a train racing towards the utopian Maelin System. Suddenly the train is attacked by rebel space pirates and the Doctor and Yaz quickly find themselves caught up in a battle for control of the train's important cargo - the enigmatic Maelin Anomaly, upon which the future of the Maelin people depends! 

It's a cracker and no mistake! So listen up as we dive into The Greatest Train Robbery by Karissa Hamilton-Bannis and discuss the story's main themes and character motivations!

PLUS we trade thoughts on the upcoming Doctor Who animated series and take a sideways glance into the film career of a certain Tom Cruise - upon whom Geoff has a serious crush!

"RUN!" 

Who remembers that? 

We certainly do - and probably so does Graham Norton! 

Launching the 21st Century revival of Doctor Who and energising a whole new generation of soon-to-be avid fans, there's no doubt that Rose has earned its place in Doctor Who's Hall of Iconic Stories. Arguably, no other story in Doctor Who's history - since 1963's An Unearthly Child perhaps - has had to prove itself and carry so much. 

Undoubtedly, in 2005, Rose was a runaway success! 

So we thought we'd watch it again! 

Now, some 21 years later, we ask how well Rose stands up to the test of time and how did it manage to set the template for a faster-paced series that welcomed older Doctor Who fans as much as it introduced new viewers to the wonders of our favourite show!

"Rose Tyler's introduction changed everything!"

Following the aftermath of Geoff's annual HORSHAM FILM FESTIVAL, we thought it would be a great idea to look at some of our favourite (and upcoming) MOVIES and debate critical topics!

Such as; whether or not Ridley Scott is actually a good director, and why Marvel Studios are choosing to lead their marketing efforts with characters no one's ever heard of! 

We also argue vociferously and split hairs over other common pub-chat topics: 

• Practical effects vs CGI
• Iconic actors in new roles
• Digital replacements
• Can fan opinions change a movie's direction?
• Something about Avatar

Topping it all, Paul has a surprising NEW TAKE on Captain America: The Winter Soldier which anyone who has listened to our sister podcast MCU Corner to Corner will NOT want to miss!

No new Doctor Who this week, so why not indulge your movie passions and dive into our diversionary discussion!

Why not join us on our socials and give us YOUR take on the movies we talk about in the podcast?

In this week's podcast we review THE KALEIDOSCOPE - the latest entry in Doctor Who's ongoing multi-platform adventure for the Fugitive Doctor: Circuit Breaker! 

Written by JO MARTIN, The Kaleidoscope sees the Doctor and Martha Jones undertaking a simple mission which quickly turns into a high-stakes journey of self-discovery and sci-fi adventure. 

Travelling from London and the dreaming spires of Oxford to the shores of modern day Jamaica to an isolated planet in the 29th Century, lost memories surface as the Doctor begins to unravel the secret of the Diaspora Locus, revealing a childhood she never knew she had...

And what, or who, is the sinister force working behind the scenes to keep the truth hidden?

Listen up as we cast our reviewer's pen over Jo Martin's debut novel, out now from BBC Books!

CHRIS CHIBNALL - ex Doctor Who showrunner, screenwriter, producer and author of the Nicola Bridge murder mystery novels - returns to the Who Corner to Corner Podcast for an incredible third time to talk about his brand new novel THE PARKWOOD MURDERS. 

Following on from Chris's debut novel Death at the White Hart, The Parkwood Murders sees Detective Nicola Bridge investigating a murder at a popular nature holiday park mid-season. But with so many suspects, hundreds of guests and staff, not to mention lack of resources, growing unrest and a ticking clock, the challenge of uncovering the murderer seems impossible! 

Of course we've read it, and of course we love it - and we've done our best to keep our discussion spoiler free. But if you haven't read the book yet, what are you waiting for? Go on - do it! Do it now! We guarantee you won't be disappointed! 

Listen up as Chris talks us through his elevator pitch for the novel, his plans for future adventures for Detective Nicola Bridge, and the latest news on developing Death at the White Hart as a TV series.  

In amongst the chat we find time to put your questions to Chris and ask him for his take on the current state of affairs surrounding Doctor Who.

It's time for a MASSIVE APOLOGY! 

...And Geoff could NOT be happier!

As regular listeners of WHO CORNER TO CORNER will know from previous episodes, co-host Paul has repeatedly TRASHED the wonders of the amazing IMAX experience! 

"Too loud!" he cried. 

"Too smelly!" he raged. 

"Claustrophobic! Uncomfortable and way too sweaty!" 

Not to mention the now-legendary quote: "My home cinema is better than IMAX!" 

And then he went to see the new SUPERGIRL movie at a different IMAX theater and boy has he changed his tune! 

Settle in, dear listeners, and enjoy as Geoff cooks up and delights in serving his opinionated co-host with a MASSIVE mouthful of gramma's best HUMBLE PIE!

Of course, it's not just about watching Paul squirm (though that is fun!) we also touch on a number of related topics so check out the chapter list right here...
