It's another mega-extended director's cut of a chat this month, as I sit down with Alex Wilcock (a self-confessed Virgin New Adventures supergeek) who even owns a t-shirt with all 61 NA covers proudly on display. We're talking about the 1995 New Adventure Head Games , by Steve Lyons, whose previous book in the range, 1994's Conundrum , is held in the highest regard by virtually everyone who's read...

What connects cricket, The Mary Whitehouse Experience and November Rain? It can only be the 50th Virgin New Adventure Happy Endings, a uniquely divisive book but a uniquely welcome celebration.

This time we are once again veering off-course and looking at a different Doctor in fiction, this time the fourth Doctor who appears in a tale written by...the fourth Doctor, Tom Baker. I'm joined by the potty-mouthed irreverent scamp Harry from a famous 80's prog band to discuss this bizarre entry into the world of written Who. This is very much NSFW, for which I'm very sorry. It's all Harry's fa...

Strap yourselves in, we're flying to Sarn. In this episode, the High Council meet to discuss the Twelfth Doctor story Sleep No More . It seemed poor in 2015, but has time been kind to this Mark Gatiss script? Plus, stay tuned at the end for the WORLD PREMIERE of the single "Morpheus Crisis" by 90's funk-rock band Faith No Morlock.

email: allstoriespod@icloud.com Like the Christ, Iain and Joe return quite unexpectedly to carry on where they left off.

The start of a new mini-series devoted to Doctor Who stories which aren't exclusively prose-based. The High Council, (Lord President Ryan Blake and me, Castellan Scoundrel) discuss TV stories, audios, animations, graphic novels, anything really. We hope you will join us up here at our elevated vantage point, way way up in the sky in geostationary orbit, to chew the fat about the final Fourth Docto...

email us at allstoriespod@icloud We are back, and so is the simply adorable Joe Ford, for this even-handed and fair-minded critique of a novel (perhaps unfairly) regarded as one of the very worst Doctor Who: New Adventures.

Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends, unless I live to be twice as long as too long, in which case kill me now. This may seem like an utterly redundant trailer. In some ways it is. But it does three very important things. Take care. Be kind to yourself. Come say hi. Email: allstoriespod@icloud.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Surprise! We're back for the first episode of our new, occasional side-step into Doctor Who books featuring other Doctors, and where better to start than at the very beginning, with Slipback, the very first Doctor Who novel *not* based on a BBC TV story.

The fourth book published in the Eighth Doctor Adventures was the unloved Genocide by Paul Leonard. Kevin, Iain, and our tame Scotsman Mark Donaldson poke about under the bonnet to try to work out exactly what the problem is. This is the last in the current series of We're All Stories in the End .

Greetings to anyone who bothers to read these show-notes, and welcome to our listeners in Taiwan, Bosnia and New Zealand, France and Greece. It's nice to see Doctor Who fans (a) who are from other countries and continents or (b) listening to my podcast while they're on holibobs. Either way. This month I'm joined once again by Jon Arnold from Strangers in Space to look at the last BBC Doctor Who ad...

Let's jet off to the red clay and sandy plains of Billy the Kid territory, the sublime state of New Mexico, in this episode filled with Alien invasions, Air Force bases, and some rather baffling Kreer advice (see what I did there?) from a familiar foe...

Join Iain and Si as they travel back to the 80's for a look at the EDA "Father Time" by Lance Parkin, and discuss 80's cartoons, Guns N' Roses, the secret of the Klade, and the TV episode "The Doctor's Daughter". Amongst other things... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

To discuss 1995's gargantuan New Adventure Falls the Shadow , I'm joined from UNIT HQ by Corporal Blake, who had as hard a time with the novel as I did, and of course by our resident reader Kevin, who gives a second opinion that pretty much matches our own. The book remains a challenging and at times unpleasant read, at the farthest edges of what Doctor Who novels can set out to do, without actual...

It's the return of Jon Arnold this month, as we discuss Eternity Weeps by Jim Mortimore, the fourth-from-final New Adventure published by Virgin in 1997. And now I've just realised this range even predates the Blair era and now I feel so old I could cry. In fact, I shall. But while I'm doing that, you can listen to this most excellent of episodes, and you can follow me on the increasingly pointles...

After spending a hundred years tooling about with no memories or TARDISes, Iain and Mark Cockram from All of Time and Space meet in St. Louis for a long-awaited reunion and a bit of a chat about Colin Brake's Eighth Doctor Adventure Escape Velocity.
