| Posted: 10 May 2010 12:42 PM PDT  The Eighth Doctor returns to BBC Radio 7 next Sunday when the station begins airing selected stories from the third series of the Big Finish Eighth Doctor Adventures.The series stars Paul McGann as the Doctor and Sheridan Smith as Lucie Miller. Four out of eight stories will be broadcast, from the series first released by Big Finish in 2009. Radio Seven has previously broadcast the first two series of the Eighth Doctor Adventures. The series starts on BBC Radio 7 on Sunday 16th May at 6pm with a repeat at midnight BST. Radio 7 can be heard around the world via the BBC Website. Orbis Written by Alan Barnes and Nicholas Briggs. Directed by Nicholas Briggs. Starring Paul McGann, Sheridan Smith, Andrew Sachs, Laura Solon. The Doctor has fallen to his death. His companion, Lucie Miller, has returned to her life on Earth, grief-stricken. Then, one night, an alien visitor arrives at her front door and shoots her. Could it be that Lucie's days with the Doctor are not over? She will only find the answer on the planet Orbis. A planet where all forms of life are facing violent extinction. The Beast of Orlok Written by Barnaby Edwards. Directed by Barnaby Edwards. Starring Paul McGann, Sheridan Smith, Miriam Margolyes, Samuel Barnet Germany, 1827. The town of Orlok is under a curse, haunted by the memory of a spate of grisly murders that shattered the community twenty years before. At the time, townsfolk blamed the legendary Beast of Orlok, a nightmarish creature from medieval folklore. And now, it seems, the Beast has returned. As the killings begin again, the people of Orlok are understandably suspicious of two strangers newly arrived in their midst. The Doctor and Lucie must face their darkest fears as they find themselves plunged into a decidedly grim fairytale. The Scapegoat Written by Pat Mills. Directed by Nicholas Briggs. Starring Paul McGann, Sheridan Smith, Samantha Bond, Clifford Rose, Christopher Fairbank, Paul Rhys. Oh, but if you think you've seen and heard all that Paris by night has to offer... the exotic sights of Le Moulin Rouge, perhaps, or the horror tricks of Le Grand Guignol... if you think nothing could cause your mouth to dry and your heart to pound... you're wrong. Ladies and gentlemen, mesdames et messieurs – not forgetting our honoured guests from the Gestapo – tonight, it is my privilege to present to you the star of the Theatre des Baroque! A man who has died on stage near ten thousand times! The Most Assassinated Man in the World… Max Paul! And joining him, in a playlet we call 'The Executioner's Son' – from Blackpool, England: the enchanting Lucie Miller! Ah, la belle Lucie. She's got no idea what she's let herself in for. Heh. Should you feel faint, or nauseous – never fear. Tonight, we have a Doctor in the house! Just pray he lasts 'til the interval... The Cannibalists Written by Jonathan Morris. Directed by Jason Haigh-Ellery. Starring Paul McGann, Sheridan Smith, Phil Davies, Phill Jupitus, Nigel Lambert. From their high spire, looking out over silent streets and empty plazas, the Assemblers are waiting for the day when the humans arrive. Waiting. Waiting. Waiting… When the TARDIS brings the Doctor and Lucie to the Haven, it seems like Assemblers' long wait might be over. Living beings! Without batteries! Protocol be praised! Except – they're headed for the lower levels. They don't want to do that. That's where the Cannibalists live. And if the Cannibalists catch them – well, they won't be living beings much longer… http://gallifreynewsbase.blogspot.com   | ||

| Posted: 10 May 2010 06:54 AM PDT Vampires of Venice has proved a popular episode of Doctor Who, particularly from a critical point of view – we've got more links to reviews of the episode from around the web for your enjoyment…
Certainly The Independent's Tom Sutcliffe presumed an insight into the creator of Discworld's enjoyment of Vampires of Venice, but at least it put him in a frame of mind to spot at least one inconsistency in Toby Whithouse's script:
Den of Geek have provided a lengthy review of Vampires of Venice - convenient as the episode apparently overran the usual time slot, running to a little over 48 minutes. Beyond the realm of inconsistencies, DoG are focussing on the consistencies, the ongoing storyline of cracks, and silence…
Finally, FlickFilosopher MaryAnn Johanson has noticed a key element to the new Doctor Who – who the Doctor is. Not in terms of the actor, or the character, but the focus.

| Short Trips Opportunity Successes! Posted: 10 May 2010 03:57 AM PDT Yes, it's the news you've all been waiting for! You're a talented lot, aren't you? Many thanks for all your submissions to our opportunity to write a Short Trips short story for the CD releases later in the year. There were just over 500 entries. It's a cliché, but it was genuinely a very hard job to narrow them down to this final 22, which will appear in the first four of the new Short Trips series. There was a fantastic mix of people who sent in stories, from those who hadn't had anything published before to professional writers and editors. Take a look at the list below to find out a bit more about the authors. Due to the large number of entries, it is impossible to give individual feedback. But when Simon Guerrier judged the Short Trips competition in 2007, he wrote a marvellous (and comprehensive) piece of general advice, which definitely holds true for this open submission. It's well worth a read and can be found here. The following stories will appear alongside stories from Big Finish writers Jason Arnopp, Andrew Cartmel, Richard Dinnick, Simon Guerrier, George Mann, James Moran, Kate Orman and, of course, Colin Baker! There are also stories from award-winning author Ally Kennen and Dorothy Koomson, whose novel My Best Friend's Girl was selected for the Richard and Judy Summer Reads Book Club and sold over 500,000 copies.

No doubt the additional mainstream media attention came from the recent MediaWatch UK claims that the show was featuring "inappropriate" scenes, not to mention Sir Terry Pratchett's recent comments in SFX which have been hugely misrepresented.
