Music: A Dragonfire Song
A musical parody for the Doctor Who Literature Podcast.
Music: Are You Going to the Nightmare Fair?
Friend of the Doctor Who Literature Podcast Ian Potter sent us this reworking of an English folk ballad interpreting the missing story The Nightmare Fair. I created an animation to accompany it.
Music: We Love Wotan
A little song I composed with a little help from AI (it felt appropriate) for a hand-drawn animation about The War Machines.
The Web of Fear Missing Scene Animated
By the time Target books published the novelisation of The Web of Fear in 1976, the character of Lethbridge Stewart was long established. But in his debut appearance on TV, his initial meeting with the Doctor happened offscreen. Terrance Dicks addressed this in his adaptation and added an all-new scene. With my limited animation skills, I’ve created a video of what that moment might have looked like.
Music: The ‘Lost’ Beatles Song
Created for The Doctor Who Literature Podcast, this parody video sees John Lennon interviewed about the time he and the other Beatles wrote a song for Doctor Who, only to discover it had been edited out of The Chase.
The Curse of Fatal Death – The Novel
Back in 2022, I published a novelisation of Dimensions in Time on this blog. Ever since then, I’ve been asked if I’m going to do another. Because that would be mad…
So – here’s a completely unauthorised and unofficial adaptation of the 1999 Comic Relief comedy special ‘The Curse of Fatal Death’.

Bonus: Go Harry, Go!
In advance of my guest appearance on the Dr Who Literature Podcast to discuss Harry Sullivan’s War, I wanted to create a theme tune, as if the book had been a TV movie. As the book is inspired heavily by James Bond, there’s a nod to a 1980s Bond theme in there, as well as references to events in the novel, sewn together as an oblique narrative in the style of Duran Duran. I’m immensely grateful to Antony Owen for providing the lead vocals on this.
Then there’s the title sequence, making use of very limited animation to evoke something similar to a 1980s TV thriller.
