The Black Archive 36: Listen

The Black Archive, a series of book-length looks at single Doctor Who stories from 1963 to the present day

"What if the big bad Time Lord doesn’t want to admit he’s just afraid of the dark?"

Listen is a pared down episode of Doctor Who that draws on Freudian ideas to bring to life the fear felt by the characters on-screen and the watching viewers. This Black Archive examines how through its use of the supernatural, the Gothic, the unconscious mind, madness and dystopia, Listen really is the stuff of nightmares.

The Black Archive 35: Timelash

The Black Archive, a series of book-length looks at single Doctor Who stories from 1963 to the present day

‘After all, he does have an interesting story to tell.’

Most people watching Timelash (1985) these days are probably re-watching, and hold firmly to their opinions about this often maligned two-parter. But here are some questions to consider.

How do the ideas of HG Wells haunt Timelash? His socialism? His feminism? Do both Wells and Doctor Who fall short of their ideals in the same ways? How does power speak on

Karfel? Is the Borad a ventriloquist? Is the Borad vegan? Can idealism succeed in Doctor Who in an era script-edited by a profound cynic? And where have we seen that sofa before?

By asking fresh questions of Timelash, this Black Archive may allow new and old viewers to see the story in a different light – indeed, perhaps, as the most luminous force in this part of the galaxy.

Worzel Book, The (40th Anniversary Edition)

The definitive guide to Worzel Gummidge just got bigger, with over 30 pages of extra content, including new interviews and facts, an all-new chapter about the 1990s Worzel animation project featuring script summaries, storyboards and pre-production art, plus dozens of new photos in black and white and colour.

If you bought the original edition, hold onto your copies, as the inside cover Polaroid gallery will not be carried across to the new edition. We truly appreciate everyone who purchased and supported the original book and wanted to do something to make sure that original edition remains special and unique.

When a former Time Lord swapped time and space for the mysteries of the countryside, one of children’s television’s most unusual personalities was born. Jon Pertwee’s portrayal of the anarchic scarecrow Worzel Gummidge won him a new generation of viewers and would become his most enduring character.

The Worzel Book traces the journey of Scatterbrook’s scarecrow, from the days of early radio and the novels of Barbara Euphan Todd, through to the fondly-remembered ITV television series and its revival in New Zealand, and now the exciting new BBC adaptation starring Mackenzie Crook.

This is the untold story of a much-loved TV classic, featuring dozens of interviews with cast and crew, including Una Stubbs, Geoffrey Bayldon, Jeremy Austin, Bernard Cribbins, Barbara Windsor, Lorraine Chase and Sean Pertwee, illustrated throughout with over 400 photographs in black and white and colour, and includes a foreword

by Sherlock creator Mark Gatiss.

Companion Chronicles 13: First Doctor Volume 3

Four new stories from the First Doctor's era...

13.1 E is For... by Julian Richards

All is not right on the planet Malkus. Every day more and more monstrosities are born; people with powers and abilities far beyond those of normal men and women. They call these people "the Gifted." And Susan has become one of them. Separated from her friends in a Police State dedicated to hunting people like her, Susan finds herself in a prison which has destroyed countless lives. And at its centre, at its heart, waiting, is the most dangerous monster of all...

13.2 The Crumbling Magician by Guy Adams

The TARDIS has crashed, its passengers in a bad way. The Doctor — not in the best of health anyway, his old body wearing somewhat thin — is in a coma, Ben unconscious. As for Polly, she’s been affected worst of all. Time is running in the wrong order for her and she’s seen the future, a future in which she’s mortally wounded. But will Continuity allow her to die?
