This week we're adrift in a white void with the wonderful Daniel Knight. Join us as we tackle the sometimes confusing, but utterly wonderful Parts 1 and 2 of Warriors' Gate! anchor.fm/drwho-whats-in…

I was surprised to together that this was only a bonus track on A-Z, Vol. 2. That's astonishing! Anyway...what a strong and powerful song. It's not only catchy, but the lyrics are incredibly cutting and speak of being broken and trying to move forward.

#AshTop30 No.5 - Spellbound "The dreams that you've taken from me Though my heart shattered I will break free, oh baby At the mercy of sad memories You can fulfil your own destiny" youtube.com/watch?v=d4OGUT…

Don’t forget to check out Daniel, Jeff and myself talking about parts one and two of Warriors’ Gate. This weekend we’ll be moving onto parts three and four and saying goodbye to a couple of friends…

Half Marathon Training: Run 61 - I’ve had a bad day so went for a fast 5K. All done.

Another one from "Race the Night" and this one has a dreamy, chill-out vibe that takes you to the edges of relaxation before bursting into life as your night out goes wild. I bloody adore this one and love every bit of it's 6 minutes and 38 seconds.

#AshTop30 No.6 - Crashed Out Wasted "I'll meet you at Broken Land, I'll meet you at Broken Land I'm lonely for you tonight, I'm looking for you tonight I'm lonely for you tonight, I'm looking for you tonight" youtube.com/watch?v=46eHNM…

Have you caught up with this week’s Nostalgia Tours yet, where we begin our focus on the 7th Doctor? If not, join @frakturedboy @PaulCDunnEsq & @Grumpy2EB as we enjoy the 1950s, holiday camps, bees, honey, singing and… rugs??? Here’s to the future! podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/nos…

There till the morning light…

The rapid climb of this one right into my top 10 astonished even myself. I found myself playing it over and over again. It's another one from "As Astra" and it's fast and a riot. And then right at the end it slows riiiiiight down... Brilliant!

#AshTop30 No.7 - Hallion "She's a hallion She'd take on a whole battalion There she goes There she goеs She's a hallion Got me thinking I'm a stallion Therе she goes There she goes" youtube.com/watch?v=BCu0O4…

Unbelievably this is just a bonus track released in 2010 on the A-Z, vol 1 compilation. I adore it. It has an 80's fantasy film vibe to it. I can imagine it playing over the end credits. The saxophone definitely helps as well. But it's truly lovely.

#AshTop30 No.8 - Do You Feel It? "You've been waiting for the walls to come down Waiting for your luck to turn round Waiting for your life to change Do you feel it, yeah?" youtube.com/watch?v=PWxaWB…

Half Marathon Training: Run 60 - A quick run straight after work before doing podcast prep. It was a run of two halves. The first part direct into some strong winds, and the second part I was blown back home. 🤣

How did I not realise that THIS Ray Brookes was THE Ray Brookes who played David Campbell in the 1966 film Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D.

@Gamer187Play Well, I consider you a friend so... I appreciate you! x

@frakturedboy I ain’t judging ya bro you do you, I’ve got noting but respect for ya. But also know if ya ever in real 💩 street and no one is answering ya knocks then don’t hesitate to send a flare up my way. I got a lot of time for ya. You’re a decent human.

@mellis107 Dead to me.... Warriors' Gate (Parts 3/4) commentary out next Saturday. 🤣

Is Doctor Who still even a thing anymore?

The first of two songs from "Free All Angels". It's a classic. It's funny because when I heard this 25 years ago I liked it but I didn't love it. As time has ticked on I've come to realise how bloody amazing it is. Great video too!

#AshTop30 No.9 - Burn Baby Burn "Tumbling like the leaves Yeah, we are spiraling on the breeze Almost to the point of no return Everything will burn, baby burn" youtube.com/watch?v=t5Ztot…

Fancied watching Star Wars tonight. The Despecialized Edition of course! I’ve found if I want to enjoy expanded SW I’ll be ok watching the special versions, but if I’m feeling nostalgic I’ll put on the originals. No CGI Jabba, Han shoots first, the Clone Wars sounding mythical…

I always thought the line in Billie Jean was "the jealous mother's son," not "the kid is not my son". Mind blown...🤯
