Over the past five years, friend of the podcast Dylan Rees has worked at compiling the complete story of Reeltime Pictures, from the earliest days of its acclaimed Myth Makers interview tapes, through to the production of ambitious dramas and documentaries.

The resulting book tells the story of Keith Barnfather’s passion and dedication to develop a valuable archive of material - starting in the days of VHS through to DVD, Blu-ray, streaming and downloads - which chronicles the complete production history of classic Doctor Who.

In tonight's episode Dylan sits down with Rob to discuss the book; what inspired it, what it was like to write, and even where a complete newbie to Reeltime could start with the archive.

The book will be launched at the Whooverville 16 Convention on 30 August 2025 in Derby, UK.

In a 30th outing for the irregular ALTERNATE GALAXIES mini-podcast on our feed, we’ve sat down with Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, and give our thoughts on it.

Join Dave from the Doctor Who Show, Rob from 42 to Doomsday, and Richard from Spacefall: A Blakes 7 Podcast, after knocking back a few gin and tonics at Dave’s place and watching 1985's The Mark of the Rani by Pip and Jane Baker.

How long has it been since any of them watched the story? What do they think of it, here in 2025?

And yes, there’s a musical number at the end 😉
