Should we perhaps make a “BBV Movies How?!? Why?!?” topic ?

I can’t believe I actually want to read a novelisation of this, but it really does need it

Hell, half want to write one, but I can’t write well to save my life

BBV: Whoniverse-adjacent TV content

This is the strangest thing I’ve added to the site so far… It’s the BBV Range of movies, TV episodes, and minisodes / webcasts. A Whoniverse-adjacent series, these were not officially licensed by the BBC but featured monsters, characters, and actors from Doctor Who. These are not that well documented, and have been added rather hastily (as I’d rather spend time on actual Who content), but a big thanks to @ineffyble who put together a spreadsheet for me.

Excellent and entertaining review. Duly liked!

I, too, think episodes 2-4 deserve more attention. It’s a political microcosm, rather wonderful in its own way. Eclipsed by ‘The Daleks’ maybe, but I remember seeing this for the first time as part of ‘The Five Faces of Doctor Who’ repeats season and feeling really unsettled by the alienness and barbarity of the palaeolithic setting. Our TARDIS crew felt far from safe. It was definitely not a safe and cosy opener. For that reason alone, it deserves more credit.
