This video has been a long time coming (originally meant for January before I got sick...twice). I took the almost-40 releases I listened to from Big Finish Productions in 2022 and did a video breaking them all down.
Big Finish releases A LOT of stories, so let's find out which are the "must listen" collections of 2022.

Hello, everyone and welcome to a new year!
I'm currently typing this out after my 7th consecutive day in bed with severe flu. You name it, I've got it unfortunately; temperature, difficulties breathing, violent cough, loss-of-voice, fatigue, vomiting etc. You can probably tell I felt very clever selecting a picture to accompany this post. Tee-hee.
Due to this, I've not had a productive start to the year and while that's usually fine, I've found myself in a position where I'm try...

We can't talk about 'The Daleks' again this week, so instead we're going through the original pilot of 'Doctor Who'; a 25 minute block of filming that was considered so bad that it almost ended the show right out of the gate.

Sorry, I accidentally deleted the original post. My mistake!
Next week's Hartnell marathon video is a substitution for reviewing 'The Daleks' again. We'll be taking a look at the original unaired version of 'An Unearthly Child'; an episode that was so poorly received that it almost resulted in 'Doctor Who' being cancelled right out of the gates.

Did you know, in September 1963 the 'Doctor Who' creative team came together to film a pilot episode of the show. The results were considered a disaster and almost ended the entire enterprise right there and then. Is it really *that* bad? Let's take a look at 'An U...

This December will be the start of a Hartnell Review Marathon. Due to scheduling and YouTube Content ID issues, it's highly unlikely that the entire marathon will be completed and ready in time for December, but several reviews will drop during that month. Enjoy th...
Took some time away from my upcoming December marathon to make this retrospective/tribute to Bernard Cribbins, who passed away yesterday at the age of 93.

Hello Patrons!
Sorry for the lack of written updates here. Partly, it's because I broke out of the habit of doing them (sorry) but it was also because I was too busy actually making videos to put them together (so not-sorry? i dunno).
First things first! I got married last weekend! Technically. Kind of.
Eagle-eyed viewers of mine will know that I legally got married back in June 2021 in an understated lockdown registry office ceremony. So the ceremony at the end of April 2...
