Since Doctor Who’s 2005 revival, love and relationships have become part of the drama like never before. With Valentine’s Day coming up, CultBox runs down our top couplings… Amy Pond and Rory Williams (2010 – 2012) With the Eleventh Doctor crash-landing into her childhood, before returning to find her all grown up, it was … >
When your time travelling adventures with the Doctor are over there are variety of ways to make an exit, some grand and some not so. While some go out with a bang (Adric), others leave with more of a whimper (Tegan). Some go home to face the past they ran from (Turlough), while others are … >
Since 2014, Big Finish’s loving recreations of The Avengers’ lost episodes have transported us back to the formative years of a much loved cult classic. With a harder edge and less absurdity than it became known for, the show was a crime drama which focused on Dr David Keel and the enigmatic spy who regularly … >
Her story may be over on television, but Alex Kingston’s time travelling archaeologist continues to thrive on audio.

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.
