Doctor Who fans are going out of their minds waiting for the 60th anniversary TV specials to finally arrive. (It's not just us, right?) It's been seven months since Jodie Whittaker regenerated into David Tennant (again), and left audiences wondering, "What?" The wait seems endless. However, after a quiet period immediately following "The Power of the Doctor," the show's publicity team is starting to ramp things up, and we couldn't be happier about it. There have been a couple of mysterious 10-second clips recently, but now we have a new longer trailer to enjoy! (Note: 52 seconds still isn't nearly... Read more →

David Tennant's return as the 14th Doctor is still months away. However, as far as we're concerned, Doctor Who's 60th anniversary has officially begun with the release of the new Big Finish audio adventure, Doctor Who: Once and Future: Past Lives. (Out now.) The Once and Future series is an eight-part epic audio adventure which will highlight one Doctor per month, leading to the TV specials in November. If this first chapter is any indication, fans of the Time Lord are in for a terrific celebration throughout the rest of 2023. Past Lives sees the War Doctor injured during the... Read more →

Don't know about you, but we're getting a little stir crazy waiting for some new Doctor Who adventures. It feels like it's been years since Jodie Whittaker regenerated (back) into David Tennant, although that was apparently just last October. Of course we'll find out what that was all about when the show's 60th anniversary specials air in November. We never want to rush through any reunion of David Tennant and Catherine Tate (as Donna Noble), and it's certain to be emotional in here when the late Bernard Cribbins makes his final appearance as Wilfred Mott. However, we are also already... Read more →

Hi everyone, Happy first day of spring! We currently have a wind chill factor of 16 degrees here, but we're ignoring that for the moment. The wind will eventually die down, the snow will finish melting, and then soon we can start talking about garden time! I can't wait to play in the dirt again. In the meantime, BDH and Little Buddha gave me a new to-do list to start the week. (They're excited about the change in season, and the return of the birds, but hey, we still have to be productive.) Of course the first thing on the... Read more →

Hi friends, As 2022 comes to a close, it's time for our crew to once again take stock of another busy year at Clutter Headquarters. We once again had visitors from every single country on the planet, an achievement which will never cease to both amaze and humble us. In fact, we try not to think about that too much, because BDH and Little Buddha could get shy really quickly if they let that sink in for more than a minute. Thank you all so much for once again giving us some of your time each day as we discuss,... Read more →

We've spent most of our time since the end of "The Power of the Doctor" wondering what is next for our favorite Time Lord. The Doctor once again looks like David Tennant, and he will be reuniting with Donna Noble (played by Catherine Tate) during the 60th anniversary specials in 2023. How is any of that possible? It's enough to keep a Doctor Who fan's imagination busy for the next year all by itself. However, now we also have to ask what lies ahead for the Doctor after he regenerates into Ncuti Gatwa at the end of this mini-Tennant return,... Read more →

Five years after it was announced that Jodie Whittaker would replace Peter Capaldi, the 13th Doctor's time has come to an end. We recently shared some thoughts about this incarnation of the Time Lord but the short version is this: Whittaker's Doctor was a welcome reset from her immediate predecessors, injecting a new surge of light and optimism into the series. The actress was also a terrific brand ambassador who made the best of the material she was given. Our biggest question about her final adventure was, could showrunner Chris Chibnall give her a proper/coherent send-off? Let's discuss, "The Power... Read more →

We were just sitting here, minding our own business and counting the days until the premiere of the long-awaited "The Power of the Doctor," when the BBC decided to release a "Greatest Hits" clip for the 13th Doctor. That was nice of them. Watching the video got us thinking about this era as it comes to a close. It's been four years since the 13th Doctor's first episode. Man, that went by quickly. We were excited when it was announced that Jodie Whittaker was taking over the role of the Time Lord. After watching this video, our verdict remains the... Read more →

It's here! After months of waiting, we've finally got the trailer for Jodie Whittaker's last adventure as the 13th Doctor! "The Power of the Doctor" airs on October 23, and the clip below promises plenty of action. Of course the Doctor, Yaz, and Dan seem to be in trouble, as the Earth faces yet another attack from the Daleks. (Thankfully, that allows us to say hello to Kate Stewart again.) We're excited to find out how Tegan and Ace work into the story. It's also great to see Sacha Dhawan return as the Master. (Probably too much to hope for,... Read more →

We love Doctor Who, but the gap between series or specials can feel endless sometimes, and we get impatient waiting for the next adventure of the Time Lord and the iconic blue box. That's why it's such a luxury that Big Finish exists. For those who aren't familiar with the company, Big Finish has been making audio adventures of the Doctor and friends for decades. All of the incarnations (except for current Doctor Jodie Whittaker) are represented, either with the original actors or fill-ins. Thus, fans have countless opportunities to let their minds wander well past what they've seen on... Read more →
