March 9th, 2025 - 7:52pmSad to hear of the passing today of Dorium actor Simon Fisher-Becker. A convention regular and lovely gentleman to boot. An unforgettable character. “Doctor Who? Doctor Who?”

March 7th, 2025 - 2:58amDoes anyone have an idea of the print runs for the Virgin Books New Adventures titles please? I saw an apparent Peter Darvill-Evans quote of 25k each, but I’m assuming that earlier titles had reprints and later ones didn’t – I can see Lungbarrow and Dying Days being extra popular, but why the delayed printing of So Vile A Sin would be extra popular and an instant sell out at 25k I don’t know… (I
seem to remember that the other titles from that time hung about.) I think PD-E had long since departed by this point though, so perhaps he was speaking about earlier books?

March 4th, 2025 - 10:32amBooboo, when I Access Collector Lists then Go on Robert Harrops Merchandise I can’t Access any of the figurines like I had done in the Past.
Is it a Problem with my Ipad?
booboo
March 4th, 2025 - 10:59amyou cant see anything?
The DR.
March 4th, 2025 - 11:12amHello, Theres like a Holding Page that shows 4 Thumbnails of some of the latest Harrops releases, but I can’t click on anything to see all the list of Figurines.
I Think it’s happened to Alot of your Collector Lists.
I just tried Getting on the Titan Vinyl lists and that’s the same. Just a holding Page with nothing to Click on to see the Full line of Vinyls.
It was like it a a couple of weeks ago when I tried Going on the Harrop lists. I just Thought you were doing some kind of Maintenance/Update, but it’s still the Same Today.
booboo

The DR.
March 4th, 2025 - 12:15pmThanks, Didn’t Know if it was a Problem at my End or Yours.

March 5th, 2025 - 10:47amIf you’re really needing to look at it then the wayback machine works to get the direct link to the page, because the page is still there there’s just no access to it from the site, used it to get the titan checklist a few days ago
The DR.
March 6th, 2025 - 6:40pmIt’s Ok Mrs Croot, Yesterday I noticed the Technical Issues had been sorted out.
I also Noticed that Last Year (2024) Harrops Managed to get out Six Figurines for the Year. The Previous 4:Years (And Most Other Years) they usually only produced Five a Year.
So Well Done Harrops, Keep it up.

March 2nd, 2025 - 11:41amWell done Harrops – the Peter Davison figures sold out. Very fast too. Nice to know quality merchandise can garner a faithful audience.

Master of M
March 6th, 2025 - 4:27pmLooked more like Kenneth Williams – Definitely not to Harrops usual quality
DDD

February 28th, 2025 - 3:19pmSuper happy too be finally collecting the target books for the first time esp currently going through the 3rd doctors ones more first but does anyone know any that wasn’t published or if not the hardest ones now days too buy i do admit i only so far gone for the two different versions especially and not just all the 70s or 80s ones alone
Bookcollector
February 28th, 2025 - 3:41pmAll classic era stories were published with the exception of…
The pirate planet
City if death
Shada
Resurrection of the daleks
Revelation of the daleks
Since then the BBC have released target versions of four of them.
The pirate planet by James Goss
City of death by James Goss
Resurrection of the daleks by Eric saward
Revelation of the daleks by Eric saward
Shada is available only as a full novel by Gareth Roberts.
The same five books were released as fan made books by TVS a New Zealand fan club in the early 2000’s. These are hard to get hold of but are good reads.
The pirate planet by David Bishop
City of death by David Lawrence
Shada by Paul scoones
Resurrection of the daleks by paul scoones
Revelation of the daleks by jon preddle

February 26th, 2025 - 7:15pmNot who related but fans of buffy will be shocked by the death at 39 of Michelle Trachtenberg. R. I. P.
The Ergon
February 27th, 2025 - 9:35amShe was great in Buffy. Im more shocked by the sudden death of legend Gene Hackman. A movie legend.
Amypondfan
February 27th, 2025 - 12:38pmYes, saw that this morning. It looks like Michelle took her own life sadly.
The Ergon
February 20th, 2025 - 4:34pmThe next Harrops piece following on from the fifth doctor is a Primord from Inferno. Looks amazing.

February 20th, 2025 - 1:22pmAnything known about the new ‘Weeping Angels Christmas Curse’ Book?
booboo
February 20th, 2025 - 1:25pmits an independent book isn’t it ?
Bookcollector
February 20th, 2025 - 5:08pmIndependently published, unofficial and the author seems to writing a lot of who books. I only know one person who has read one of the books and she said she would not be buying anymore. If you want to try them feel free but I think it’s a case of buyer beware!
Radburn
February 20th, 2025 - 5:48pmJust found it on Amazon. It’s only 76 pages long, so not even a novella. Think I can give this one a miss!

February 19th, 2025 - 5:26pmSomething that is, at least partially, related to Doctor Who that may be of interest…
Read on the Guardian’s website about software that replicates the analogue sounds of the Radiophonic Workshop.
Mark Ayres has been involved and is part of preseving the legacy of the workshop.
The software is on sale today at a reduced rate for the first month.

February 19th, 2025 - 4:18pmThey’re usually approximately two years after the limited release, so I’d expect standard edition of s20 this autumn with 15 and 25 coming in 2026
