Big Finish: The First Doctor Adventures

Looks like the BBC are taking full advantage of David Bradley's time in Cardiff. There will be a series of audios.

Jamie Glover, Jemma Powell and Claudia Grant will also reprise their roles from An Adventure in Space and Time. James Dreyfus has been cast as the Master. I'm not keen on this idea that everyone must meet the Master but it will be interesting to see what has happened.  

Class Cancelled

It was announced that Class will not be getting a second series. This is no surprise. Patrick Ness had announced it was quit and neither Chris Chibnall, nor outgoing showrunner Steven Moffat have said nothing about the show's future.

The show was fairly average. The episodes were released fairly quickly as though BBC3 wanted to get rid of it.A fantasy showset at a school is not a bad idea. Buffy and Smallville did it well enough. But Class was ultimately bland.

This is a shame for Doctor Who, as a spin-off for young adults could have increased the audience of the parent show and kept that age group interested.

Thirty Years of the Seventh Doctor

It is thirty years since Time and the Rani Part 1. It was not a very good introduction. Since Colin Baker had quit he had been forced to wear a wig for the regeneration. The story itself was also a bit of a mess. Fortunately his era gets better. We got stories like Remembrance of the Daleks, Greatest Show in the Galaxy, Ghost Light and Survival.
