Forthcoming Doctor Who spin-off, The War Between the Land and the Sea, is to be scored by Mission: Impossible and His Dark Materials composer Lorne Balfe. Good to see an established musician join the brand. filmmusicreporter.com/2025/05/30/l...

Williamson’s Tunnels and the heritage centre were obviously a massive part/influence for our Flux series of Doctor Who. Would be amazing if the Who community shared this appeal widely and/or were able to help before this looming deadline. See below and please RT!

Our Adrian has made it onto today's #DoctorWhoMagazine letter page (he's becoming a regular!). Well done, Adrian! Thanks for plugging the group, and hope Doris the BBC Radio Merseyside Dalek didn't exterminate you too much.
