As the Doctor Who audio producers rounded out 2016 with another bumper month, Colin Baker was kept busy with a pair of main range releases, while the Early Adventure found the First Doctor enduring his first brush with ‘The Sontarans’. A pair of Short Trip releases were under the tree for the Seventh Doctor; first … >
It has been another amazing year of Doctor Who releases from audio producers Big Finish, who continue to entertain us with stories from pretty much all eras of the Time Lord’s story – including John Hurt’s War Doctor and David Tennant’s Tenth, accompanied by Donna Noble. Using our own patented, wildly unscientific, method we have … >
Christmas is the season for catching up with old friends and so Boxing Day night seems an ideal time to entertain the Brockman family. It has been almost three years since the Outnumbered gang last graced our screens with their semi-improvised mayhem and unsurprisingly the kids have shot up (what are they feeding them?); Karen … >
The modern era of Doctor Who has brought us some memorable new monsters and villains, but arguably none as deliberately forgettable as The Silence. The Munch inspired creatures were introduced in 2011’s season-long storyline, but their lengthy grip on humanity was promptly loosened by the Doctor; turning their own hypnotic tricks against them in ‘Day … >
CultBox was lucky enough to be invited to the premiere of this year’s Doctor Who festive special, ‘The Return of Doctor Mysterio’, in London earlier this week.

In a tense final episode, Patrick Ness drew BBC Three’s Class to a close with plenty of shocks and a lot of heart. Set to music (did we know April could sing too?), the pre-credits sequence provided an easy-to-digest catch-up and reminded us how shattered the group’s had become; avoiding each other’s calls, skipping classes and … >
If last time Class was all about the kids and their personal truths, this week it was Katherine Kelly’s Quill who took the spotlight for her own personal journey. While modern Doctor Who has often “double-banked”, time-saving by filming two stories simultaneously and spreading the principal cast between them, these two episodes have doubled-banked in a … >
As regular readers may be aware, Tom Baker, the popular television actor has died and been reincarnated as a giant moggy, the self-styled King of Cats. Aided by his perky former co-star Suzy Goshawk (Katy Manning), and acidic housekeeper Mrs Frimbley (Susan Jameson), he resides at Baker’s End in the village of Happenstance where all … >
Chronicling humanity’s struggle in the wake of a deadly plague, this fifth season from Big Finish brings the Survivors their greatest threat so far; the return of “the Death”. Two years on, new lives have begun with people forming small communities and living off the land, as well as trading with others. The resurgent threat … >
