If you missed Doctor Who in those pre-DVD days – you missed it forever! Unless, of course, you bought the Target novelization - the iPlayer of its day! So jump aboard the TARDIS, set the time rotor for late 20th century Earth, and join us as, with a wheezing, groaning sound, we discuss, analyse and reminisce Doctor Who On Target. We not only read the novelisations, but listen to and review the audiobook versions that from the BBC and Penguin Random House. We also have some fun, a lighthearted look at the world of Doctor Who fandom and we will probably wander off into other areas of the Doctor Who world as the mood takes us! https://whosontarget.jellycast.com/node/64 They're back! Bigger, more powerful and scarier than before - and this time, they have web guns! The fabulous Patrick Troughton classic story, recently returned (almost) to the BBC archives is graced with a truly wonderful package from BBC Audio with David Troughton narrating! How could Greg and David resist reviewing this one? They couldn't, of course - so, hit the download button and join as we find out if this Doctor Who is On Target!

If you missed Dr Who on TV in those pre-DVD days – you missed it forever! Unless, of course, you bought the Target novelization. So jump aboard the TARDIS, set the time rotor for late 20th century Earth, and join us as, with a wheezing, groaning sound, we discuss, analyse and reminisce Whos On Target. No Doctor Who, Target Books, Daleks, sci-fi, Terrance Dicks, 00:29:42
