110: Catch 22

Remember when the Doctor and his companion found a forest inside a spaceship? No, we're not talking about the Eleventh Doctor and Amy in The Time of Angels, we're talking the Tenth Doctor and Martha in the novel Wooden Heart. We chat with author Martin Day about it, and dial back the clock to see what the Doctor Who Magazine review had to say about it too.

Dave and Kenny have been on the road again, to attend another convention. They made the trip from Glasgow to Allendale in Northumberland, to visit not only the Museum of Classic Sci-Fi, but also attend the Monster Men event. They met Mike Tucker, Robert Alsopp, Stephen Mansfield, as well as writer Steve Gallagher and Glen McCoy.

We're putting another Tenth Doctor novel back under the microscope today. Recently, we've featured several original books with Martha and the Doctor, but today, we're featuring him with his original companion, Rose. Kenny and Steevie discuss the novel, and are joined by author Mike Tucker, to talk all things mysterious in a Welsh seaside town...

And now, there's three travellers in the TARDIS. The BBC has announced the arrival of Varada Sethu alongside Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson in the 2025 series of Doctor Who, as an unnamed new companion. Steevie and Kenny discuss the new arrival. And here's the link to the video Steevie discusses! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGXskXY55M0 (Today's guest theme: Doctor Who theme in the style of Tangerine Dream, by George C Music)

This episode of The Power of 3 is one of our longest to date. We connect over three continents as we are joined by the editors of Adventures Across Space and Time: A Doctor Who Reader - Paul Booth, Matt Hills, Joy Piedmont and Tansy Rayner Roberts. And if four guests weren't enough for you, we then chat with Alison Lawson (writer of Big Finish adventure Catch 1782, fact fans!), who was one of the writers in the work. The book is available from in paperback, hardback and epub formats from https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/adventures-across-space-and-time-9781350288379/ (This episode's guest Doctor Who theme: Jazz-Funk Cover by Andrew Allen)

Space Badgers! The scourge of the universe! (Probably) Today, Steevie reads his first new series novel, and discusses his love of it with Kenny, as author Simon Guerrier pops by to discuss the joys of The Pirate Loop.

The Companions of Doctor Who is not to be confused with JNT's book The Companions, or David J Howe's Companions for Virgin Publishing. This is an all-new study of companions and what it means to travel with the Doctor, in a fantastic new book. Co-editor Ken Deep joins us to reveal all about what went into the making of this publication. (Guest theme: Doctor Who in a Jean-Michel Jarre style, by George C Music)

It's been a busy (Ruby) Sunday! Not only have the BBC revealed the titles of all eight episodes of series 14/season one/Ncuti's first series, they've dropped a new trailer. Dave and Kenny go through it and give their thoughts on the titles plus trailer. (Guest theme: Doctor Who in a Stranger Things style by Nokaa)

The Power of 3 returns to the Land of Fiction! We're making a trip to Edinburgh today - the Scottish capital - as we join the Tenth Doctor and Martha Jones as they encounter some hands. Not just some hands. Many hands! Kenny and John discuss this 2008 novel, and author Dale Smith pops by to chat about crafting this tale.

It's here, at last - the first full trailer for the new season of Doctor Who. Are you calling it season one? Series 14? We're sticking with 14 here - and you can find out what Steevie and Kenny have to say about it. (Today's guest theme - Doctor Who Theme Brass Band, arranged by Robert Buckley)
