Trauma

Radio For readers who aren't staunch party supporters but like to be kept in the loop, from New Years Eve and for eight weeks, Doctor Who returns in a series of eight, specially for radio adventures on BBC7 featuring Eighth Doctor Paul McGann and new companion Lucie Miller played by Sheridan Smith. Forbidden Planet's blog has a breakdown of dates and casts which include such showbusiness luminaries as Anita Dobson, Bernard Cribbinsk, Nigel Havers and Una Stubbs which means that if it all goes wrong they can at least have a nice game of charades (no sniggering at the back). Nick Briggs, voice of the Daleks and Cybermen is directing some of the episodes and providing those voices here again too.
