More Tom- BBC and BF!

Or Lis being Lis...

**SiHart** · 6th Apr 2011, 4:10 PM

They're doing The Foe From The Future as one of the Tom Lost stories. It'll be the 6 parter, with the four parter still to be announced.

Apparently, according to DWM, there will be some old foes against the Doctor too... what's the betting it's the Daleks?

There will also a BBC Tom series, by Paul Magrs in the autumn, Serpent Crest with Franklin and Mrs Wibbsey.

Isn't that just an early version of "Talons" though? I thought these were single disc releases as well!

Si.

**SiHart** · 6th Apr 2011, 4:24 PM

Well it's not quite an early version of Talons according to the Revisitations DVD. At least Robert Banks-Stewart was keen to dispell that particular myth. It's about a sinister circus or something and a village where people keep disappearing.

Important audio adventure information -

Producer David Richardson has also revealed that the adventures will utilise the 'gothic' wooden console room from Season 14!

**Stuart Wallis** · 23rd Apr 2011, 3:41 PM

...which will work rather well on audio...

**Andrew Curnow** · 1st May 2011, 9:04 PM

I don't normally listen to the BF podcasts (Nick Briggs talking to himself isn't really my idea of fun) but I couldn't resist listening to the latest one - they are brief, but there are clips in there from the Tom & Leela recordings. They don't sound exactly like 1977, but not bad at all!

In the words of eccentric movie scientist Dr Who, most exciting!!

**Lissa** · 1st May 2011, 9:18 PM

The BF podcast IS lots of fun. Briggs, Spraggers and David Hummus Richardson are a great team. Hopefully they'll all be back for May's batch.

**SiHart** · 4th May 2011, 1:53 PM

The new BF podcast has the full trailer for the Tom/ Leela series.

It's the only decent conversation he gets these days...

**SiHart** · 30th Aug 2011, 7:46 PM

First BF cover:

**Dirk Gently** · 30th Aug 2011, 8:14 PM

Nice.

I wonder if the Tom/Lis ones will be rewritten for other companions...or has that happened already?

**Si Hunt** · 30th Aug 2011, 8:20 PM

As far as we know they never got as far as writing any. She was only ever a "maybe" on even doing them, probably as she knew she was ill.

Si.

**SiHart** · 2nd Sep 2011, 6:11 PM

And another:

plus details:

This one is by the talented chaps at Amazing15, and is the already spoken about second release, The Renaissance Man, in which the Doctor meets Harcourt, a man who rivals the Doctor's own intellectual abilities. Is he the Doctor's equal? Does he surpass the brain power of our favourite Time Lord? And who will win their battle of wits and wills?

Find out in February 2012 when Ian McNeice will be playing Harcourt and sparring with the Fourth Doctor. The Renaissance Man, starring Tom Baker and Louise Jameson, is available for pre-order now, or you can pre-order the entire first series!

**Si Hunt** · 3rd Sep 2011, 9:14 AM

From great to awful. The "Camera 004" box outs are so tacky and that picture of Tom has been used on a million and one things.

Ugh.

Si.

**Richard Brinck-Johnsen** · 4th Sep 2011, 10:24 PM

Just to add to what Si said I gather that due to getting then go-ahead quite late in the day the script to studio turnaround for these has been quite short so they've been all been written for either Leela or Romana I.
I don't believe any of the scripts were written for Sarah Jane as Lis had requested to delay her involvement for now sadly obvious reasons.

If they get desperate then they could drag Hinchlcliffe's "Valley of the Lost" from 1979 into the equation or bloody "Erinella ella ella eh eh" by Pennant Roberts.

No scripts are known to exist for the original State of Decay or Errinella, though.

**Richard Brinck-Johnsen** · 12th Sep 2011, 9:35 PM

Squeee time! Raquel Cassidy and David from The Archers guest star

**Si Hunt** · 12th Sep 2011, 10:44 PM

Why on Earth would he still be wearing the Talons costume!!

Si.

BF have confirmed that this story takes place immediately after Talons.

**Andrew Curnow** · 13th Sep 2011, 8:02 AM

What, so soon after they don't even have time to change?!

**Lissa** · 13th Sep 2011, 8:25 AM

You wouldn't, would you? That outfit is fab. Leela on the other hand I'm sure would've stripped beyond her bloomers the moment the Tardis disappeared into the ether.

**Si Hunt** · 13th Sep 2011, 8:32 AM

Who's that other woman on the cover? I'm sure she's had a few.

Si.

Lol. I'm pretty sure that's Raquel Cassidy.

Wait a minute what's Cleaves from The Rebel Flesh/ The Almost People doing on space station Nerva?

Oh and latest blurb suggests that the Doctor and Leela are still in Victorian London at the start of this story.
