Russell T Davies returns to cosmic horror, a medium in which he excels, in “The Well”, an episode full of invisible enemies, reigns of terror, and a need to listen! What did the Three Who Rule think of this scary excursion 400,000 years into the future? And more to the point, did you know Steven helped get HD footage into The War Games In Colour? Plus new Big Finish including Jodie Whittaker and Mandip Gill’s first audio adventure, a book about Kangs (who don’t conquer), a big ol’ Quatermass box set, and more! Next week, will it be our Lucky Day?
