Whovember - 2013 to 2017

Another bumper crop for Whovember today to make up for lost time, four more years today, and three each Wednesday and Thursday, let’s jump right on in…

Whovember (delayed!) - 2009 to 2013

Sorry folks, got a bit behind; hit by a stinker of a cold Friday night (as did EVERYONE at work!), just about over it now (I can actually… think now).  Plus, what lucid time I did have was taken up by raving about The Star Beast (Wasn't it great?).  So, making up for lost time, the next few days, I’m going to cover four years in each of the remaining blog posts, which will take us up to 60 by the 30th.  So, let’s jump right in with…

Whovember 23: 2007 to 2009

Today’s the anniversary day!  A fine Wholiday for us all!  Not long now until an all new age begins...

We still have sixteen years to cover before we’re done, so let’s jump right into things; firstly, I am going to be taking one more little peak at the comic strip, followed by another range from Big Finish…

Whovember 22: 2005 to 2007

Into the Tennant Years now.  I should mention that though we have the TV series back on and regularly, I will still be having stuff from the various spin-offs on here too, as Big Finish and such didn’t just go “oh well, that’s Who covered, never mind, pack up lads” when the series started, they instead upped their game.  Plus, do you really need yet another analysis of Blink on the Internet?  So I thought I might focus on a few other things going on too, stuff that might be a bit overshadowed by TV Who, let’s do a little bit of redressing the balance.  So then, we’ll start with a Tennant episode, before moving onto a different season opener, broadcast not on BBC One, but on Radio 7 (what Radio 4 Extra used to be called).

Whovember 21: 2003 to 2005

So, here we are with the start of New Who!  A whole new era, bringing in a new generation of fans... and a lot of whining from older fans, naturally.  Yeah, no hobby is immune from old men yelling at clouds.  But anyway, let's look at this turning point, with one of the last truly great stories to come out of the Wilderness Years, followed by looking inside number nine...

Whovember 20: 2001 to 2003

We’re hitting the 40th anniversary today; both momentous in itself, but also for what happened during that year, when in the corridors of power at the Beeb, a great decision was made.  But before that, let's look at a story that, though only on audio, has profoundly influenced one of the series’ star monsters.

Whovember 19: 1999 to 2001

 Oooh, I’ve been looking forward to this one, as I now get to talk about Big Finish, yay!  Now they actually got started a few years earlier with their Bernice Summerfield ones, and they did their first fully licenced Who ones in 1999, here we’ll be looking at their first two full years of the main monthly range of audios.
