    Type 40 • A Doctor Who Podcast #147: With Ian Levine

    There’s been a massive amount of public interest surrounding Doctor Who since its debut. Association with it has both made and arguably ended fortunes. There are a select set of people who seem inseparable from it. Generally they’re those you’d think! Many household names and industry darlings. And then there’s Ian Levine… A tremendously successful man in his chosen fields or Songwriting and Music Production. To fellow fans though, he’s perhaps a polarising yet undoubtedly fascinating person. He joins regular hosts Sarah, Simon and Dan for this extended exclusive new interview. Just as he’s wowing the Whoniverse with a brand-new project, to bring the missing episodes back to life. Where do we start? How on Earth could we finish?? What dirt could he dish? Is Ian Levine really the ultimate Doctor Who fan?

    Type 40 • A Doctor Who Podcast #144: Type 40 & Company at Whooverville 14

    Last Autumn we were invited to cover one of the biggest conventions of the Doctor Who calendar: the 14th Whooverville event at Quad in Derby. Not only that: regular hosts Simon Horton and Dan Hadley hosted this interview panel, with three unsuspecting guests, which you can get to enjoy now in full! Hear the boys’ question, tease and test their panel: actor Tim Treloar who’s plays the Third Doctor in ongoing audio drama releases. Jonathan Carley’s likewise been acclaimed for his work as the War Doctor on the Big Finish range. Whilst Gary Russell is undoubtedly one of the most recognisable and reliable names in Doctor Who publishing. Our gratitude to The Whoovers convention organisers Stephen Hatcher & Andrew-Mark Thompson and everyone at Quad.
