Doctor Who Literature

  • Summary

  • Doctor Who is not just one of the world's longest-running science fiction TV shows, but it's also generated a prolific amount of tie-in books, often with strong literary merit. Join Jason from the Trap One Podcast on a solo journey through the Target novelizations, in publication order.

  • Episode 111A -- Slipback (with Keith Say); Space Babies & The Devil's Chord
    May 12 2024

    Please give a warm Doctor Who Literature welcome to Keith Say, a first-time guest here but a long-time guest on Trap One.

    One of the two of us really enjoyed the novelization of Slipback, the first radio-only episode of Doctor Who.

    The other one of us hated this book. Hated, hated, hated this book. Calling to mind one particular review by the great Roger Ebert.

  • Episode 111 - The Seeds of Death (with Mark from Trap One -- LIVE)
    Apr 28 2024

    It's late April 2024, but Doctor Who Literature takes us back to mid-February, and to the Gallifrey One convention in Los Angeles, where Mark from the Trap One Podcast joined me over dinner for a My Dinner With Andre-style conversation about the 1969 Doctor Who serial The Seeds of Death, and its 1986 novelization by Terrance Dicks.

    You can view My Dinner With Andre in full here.

    The Proclaimers appeared on Late Night With David Letterman in March 1989.

    Big Blue Marble was a long-running 1970s/'80s PBS series produced in part by Rick Berman (yes, that Rick Berman). You can view an episode here. The opening theme (sampled in this episode) features lyrics by Berman, music by Paul Baillargeon, and vocals by Whitney Kershaw.
