Doctor Who: Radio Free Skaro

A sad time in the world of Doctor Who as we mark the passing of writing titan Christopher H. Bidmead, and to join us in reflecting on both his work and life is Andrew Smith, writer of “Full Circle”, Big Finish dynamo, and friend of the esteemed Mr. Bidmead. Andrew looks back at getting his first break in TV due to Bidmead, working with him on behind the scenes features, and the man’s general approach to Doctor Who, including an infusion of science and a real sense of continuity where none previously existed. We’ve also got the usual bevy of news including more vague handwaving on the future of Doctor Who, 1970’s Cyberman dolly goodness, a new fancy tier for Britbox, and more!  Links: Support Radio Free Skaro on Patreon Second wave of Gallifrey One guest announcements begin with Jason Haigh-Ellery Gallifrey One 2026 Art Show Space Reservations now open ‘It’s not a question of if Doctor Who returns, but when and how’ – Jane Tranter Christopher H Bidmead died Aug 6 Steven Moffat tribute to Christopher H Bidmead
