    Episode 138 - Attack of the Cybermen (with Dave Rennie)
    Jan 18 2026

    Doctor Who Literature's final season continues with the great Dave Rennie from the A Kettle and Some String podcast. This week we are discussing the penultimate (canonical) Colin Baker novelization, Eric Saward's gruesomely violent yet oddly touching novelization of a Season 22 Cybermen story...of heavily disputed parentage.

    Episode 137 - Dragonfire (with Anthony and Alasdair)
    Jan 4 2026

    Doctor Who Literature extends a warm welcome to Anthony and Alasdair from the brilliant Too Broad and Too Deep podcast, which covers Jason's beloved Doctor Who New Adventures novels of the 1990s.

    This week we are discussing Dragonfire, the final story of Doctor's 24th season, the swan song for Bonnie Langford's Mel (until the 21st century), and the debut of Ace. There's a lot to discuss here, and Anthony & Alasdair bring their "A" game.

    You can find Alasdair here and here, and you can find Anthony here.

    Jim Sangster wrote and recorded this week's song.

    Graeme' Burk's The Comics Code is well worth its seven episodes, and not only because Jason's voice acting is featured.
