Well, well... another month, another LIST MAKERS episode. Join us for 20m as we rattle through which #DoctorWho people we'd most like to see at a convention. Between us, can we come up with the ultimate list? Who would be on your list? Why not let us know? Cheers!

A bit 'inside baseball' but I've noticed since the last series ended that while our eps are getting our regular listener numbers (sometimes higher), those numbers come over the space of 1-2 weeks rather than 1-2 days like the hot takes would return. Stands to reason, of course.

Some good numbers already for this episode. I think everyone has a top 5 people they'd like to hear talk at a convention...

Enjoyed this more than the last two season finales 🤣
With the wait between THE REALITY WAR and the 2026 DOCTOR WHO CHRISTMAS SPECIAL lasting longer that the 1985 hiatus did (1 year 6 months & 24 days versus 1 year, 5 months & 24 days), the only logical thing to do was make a pop record. Blame @masolko.bsky.social!

Making a start on my research for this month’s @thedwshow.net looking at the writing of David Fisher!
Really looking forward to this one!

I was taking my time getting through this, but finished it earlier today. I'll give a full wrap-up as a short topic on our November 30 ep. Seems so far away as I type this, but it'll be here in no time, trust me...!

Dave's #1 made me instinctively growl. 😤
I'm a bit spoiled having seen most of the folks already on the con circuit. My choices would be extremely niche like a Big Finish Torchwood panel with James Goss, Scott Handcock, Samantha Béart, Alexandria Riley, and Paul Clayton.

Finally got around to watching FURIOSA. Can't call it a work of genius and the reliance on CGI was shocking (for a film maker who has always prided himself on doing stuff 'for real'), but in terms of taking the weirdness of the world of Mad Max and playing with it - pretty good.

Our next @thedwshow.net ep will be about the stories and writing of David Fisher!
Not someone we think gets talked about a lot!
Very much looking forward to diving into his stories over the next couple of weeks....!

This month will be Doctor Who’s 62nd anniversary, so for a multi-Doctor story you may not have heard of (or you may have heard):
Here’s one excellent podcast about Doctor Who: The Missing* Adventures – Cold Fusion which came out a week ago…
*Or New. Ish.

We're back and there's a LOT to talk about this month. Missing episodes, Bad Wolf getting cranky, a MASSIVE deep dive into the Missing Adventure, COLD FUSION and tons of listener feedback. Fill your boots at the link below or wherever you get podcasts!

It's scary, the replies to my recent posts and video on JMS for showrunner, that don't realise he's a UK resident these days, or the true breadth of his writing career. He's a true legend of sci-fi writing, offering himself to the BBC, and it's sat there for years, with a finger up its nose.

Watching the latest WhoCulture vid on YT and it was going fine until, with a straight face, the host suggests Inua Ellams for showrunner. That's the bloke who had never written for TV before #DoctorWho. You don't get to showrun a flagship TV series with one TV credit on your CV.

Has anyone stood up after this #DoctorWho S13 boxset and defended, or at least explained, the thinking behind the restoration work that's landing so badly with people? Surely someone watched this and signed off on it before it went out. What was the approval process there?
