EP 111: Shada DVD/Bluray, and Audio Review
In Episode 111 of the Doctor Who: Alhambra Podcast, first, Brett discusses the various versions of the Classic Doctor Who story, Shada, that exist. In this podcast I review (however not in this order) The 2003 BCCi and Big Finish Shada story, featuring Paul McGann as The Doctor, Lala Ward as Romana II, and John Leeson as K9. The iTunes version and the special features that come along with that version of Shada. The 2012/1993 VHS version of Shada, and discuss and review the special features, documentaries, on the DVD. The 2018 version, with animation, special features, and documentaries of Shada. The only versions I did not review is the actual hard back book, and the Audio Book version of the novelization. *** We are looking to add a "Mail Section" or "Listener Response talk to our show, where you the listener pose questions about one of our thoughts, revisit previous takes, or perhaps you have an original take that you have, whatever it is, we'd love to hear it!
