Doctor Who – 1987 – All the Years

Doctor Who – All The Years is a quick examination of what was happening in the world of Doctor Who over all its years of existence. I’m not attempting to create a thorough history–just brief look back at the real-life timeline of my favorite TV show. Go back to the beginning and read about 1963 here.

Bernice Summerfield: Oh No It Isn’t! [Big Finish]

Bernice Summerfield: Silver Lining [Doctor Who – Big Finish]

Back in 2004, Big Finish released Silving Lining, on the same disk as The Coup. Like that other story, it was a free gift for readers of Doctor Who Magazine, and now it’s available for free on the Big Finish website. Unlike a lot of these stories, it didn’t feature anyone who has ever appeared on television, but rather a character who originated in print–Bernice “Benny” Summerfield.
