In episode 11 of the Doctor Who: Alhambra podcast, we briefly discuss the new Doctor Who book releases before we take a look into the Doctor Who universe.  We review the main range releases 190 Mask of Tragedy and 191 Signs and Wonders which is the second and third releases in the Seventh Doctor, Ace and Hector trilogy storyline. The  Philip Hinchcliffe Presents boxed set stories: The Ghosts of Gralstead (Six episodes) and The Devil's Armada (Four episodes).  We finish the Big Finish reviews talking about The Early Adventure story: Domain of the Voord, which we feel was the strongest most enjoyable Doctor Who Big Finish release for the month of September.  We throw in some of our silly opinions and some rants with some information Liam obtained from the latest Doctor Who convention.

Next we discuss the first 4 episodes from series 8 of the new Doctor Who TV series. We cover our likes and dislikes and provide logical reasons for these opinions regarding Deep Breath, Into the Dalek, Robots of Sherwood, and Listen.  We throw in connections between Vincent and the Doctor and Hush to Listen, and complain about Danny Pink needing to be in the series, and the Darkness of the 12th Doctor.

Later this month we will be reviewing the rest of the Big Finish, non-Doctor Who releases to close off the month of September.  Next month we will review Worlds of Doctor Who, even though it was released in September, it was announced for October, then as there was just a numerous amounts of Big Finish releases in September, we decided to keep it with the October Reviews.
