vivdunstan: Some of my Doctor Who etc books (drwho)
Current listening. I love this pairing, of Bernice Summerfield and the Unbound Doctor. Though the backwards storytelling in this story isn't a great fit for me. It's the first in a trilogy, with James Marsters' Captain John (from Torchwood) and Derek Jacobi's Master to look forward to in the next episode. Which is already newly out. But I have to listen to this first one first!

I'm also planning to resume my paused listen through of all the early Bernice Summerfield audios from Big Finish. She was their original audio starring character, before they got the full rights to Doctor Who.

vivdunstan: Test card (tv)
Have belatedly started watching this Turkish Netflix Original series. Which almost feels like a cross between Buffy and Moon Knight. There’s even a costume he puts on to become a superhero. Being dubbed it’s hard to judge the acting reliably, but it seems ropey in places. And it feels like the makers are running through a check list of key Istanbul sites and Turkish tropes to show on screen. But I am currently intrigued. It helps that the episodes are short. The series has ended now, but ran for 4 seasons, so there’s a good chunk of episodes to watch. I am currently working through the first year.
