It is the end, but it seems the moment was never prepared for...

Following the recent stunning announcements from the BBC and Russell T Davies regarding the cancellation of the 2026 Christmas Special and the shift to tender, Geoff and Paul try to wrap their heads around what the f*** just actually happened.

• Is it true there never was a script?
• Have Doctor Who fans been lied to by the producers they trusted?
• Will anyone in their right mind ever be willing to pick up Doctor Who from its current mess and attempt to reassemble it for the future?
• Is there even a future for Doctor Who on TV?
• Never mind that, what about the future of Who Corner to Corner? What do we do next?

No wonder the cloister bell is ringing ...

Who Corner to Corner: Great guests and 100% positive Doctor Who chat!

Send us a text and let us know what you think of our podcast!

This week we take a rare break from Doctor Who and instead turn our attentions to some other stuff we've been enjoying recently - music, video games and the recent new STAR WARS movie: The Mandalorian and Grogu!

Along the way, we chat about the widespread negativity in online fandoms and look at why that might be. Is it simply because people don't like movies which fail to live up to their expectations, or are there more sinister reasons at play?

If you've got an opinion on this then let us know what you think - do you agree with our thoughts or is it down to something else entirely?

PLUS we talk about the joy of concerts and live music - and why Geoff absolutely did NOT jump into the mosh-pit at the Dead Pony gig in Camden!

We'll be back with more Doctor Who soon, but for now, check out our digression into movies, music and video games, and let us know if you'd like us to do more episodes like this in the future!

Who Corner to Corner: Great guests and 100% positive Doctor Who chat!

Send us a text and let us know what you think of our podcast!

Have you ever wondered what it takes to make your own DOCTOR WHO fan film?

We have! Which is one reason we do audio dramas rather than fully-fledged video shoots...

However, one such creative hero undeterred by the daunting task of launching a full-on film production with very little cash is MARK BRAYof MB & Homeland Productions who are currently working hard on post-production of their latest Doctor Who film, Outlander.

Set in Dallas 1963, Outlander is a Doctor Who fan film which blends history, sci-fi, time travel, JFK and the infamous motorcade which led to the 80-second delay in launching our favourite TV show and its re-broadcast a week later!

We had a great chat with Mark discussing the ins and outs of film-making, and we're eagerly excited for Outlander to drop later this year!

Can't wait that long?

Here's the trailer: OUTLANDER TRAILER

Join us as we explore the art and the challenges of creating a Doctor Who fan film production!

It's getting tough!

With no news on the future of Doctor Who beyond Christmas 2026, not to mention rumours of another return for David Tennant PLUS the total curveball of the 15th Doctor's regeneration into Rose Tyler/ Bad Wolf/ the Moment/ Who Knows What? it might be fair to assume that Doctor Who fans are going crazy right now.

• Does RTD have a plan?
• What is the plan?
• Did he drop the plan down the toilet for a hoot?
• Has the plan been sold to another mega-corporation for worldwide distribution?

Who knows?
