Dwayne is joined by special guest Joe Lidster, writer of the focus story for this time, Doctor Who – The Reaping, starring Colin Baker and Nicola Bryant.
But first Dwayne explains the seeming contradiction in Who continuity with the recent season 12 TV episode “The Haunting of the Villa Diodati” featuring the 13th Doctor and “Mary’s Story”, the Big Finish audio featuring the 8th Doctor, both “seemingly” taking place at the same time with the same characters.
Many thanks to Joe for joining us for an in-depth discussion of his work, including:
Doctor Who - The RaptureDoctor Who – The ReapingDoctor Who – The Gathering
Sapphire & Steel – Daisy Chain

plus, his TV work on Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures. Intro & Outro music by Husky by the Geek.
