Fish Fingers and Custard - A Doctor Who Fanzine - FFAC2

We’ve had some interest from our readers for our past reviews of The Scarifyers , so when the latest release landed on our doormat, we couldn’t resist in letting you know how we found The Horror of Loch Ness .  The story sees Harry and Dunning investigating a mysterious disappearance in the Scottish Highlands, where Malcolm Campbell, real-life land and sea speed record breaker, goes missing whilst testing on Loch Ness.  But who’s to blame? Shifty American spies or something stirring in the deep waters of the Loch? The Loch Ness Monster myth is a premise that has been over-done by television and film in the past, but the Scarifyers team manage to pitch it just right.  They find the right balance of comedy, horror and (probably most importantly!) pacing of the story to keep the listener interested.  As always, Terry Molloy is on top form as Dunning and David Warner already sounds at home in only his second outing as the co-lead. One thing I really do like ab...

It was with mixed emotions when I heard that The Scarifyers would return, following the death of Nicholas Courtney. Delighted that the series would continue of course, but equally sad that Nick wouldn’t be a part of it. How on earth could they make the story work? I wondered. Well I needn’t have worried, as The Magic Circle has, quite easily, become my favourite Scarifyers adventure! David Warner (who is no stranger to working on audio with various Doctor Who spin-offs) stars as new character, Ex-Police Sergeant Harry Crow, who is enlisted by Dunning (Terry Molloy) to help him search out Lionheart (Courtney), who seems to have gone missing whilst looking at an old police case. But as the pair are trying to get to the bottom of it all, someone (or something!) is attacking certain magicians… The story, as always, mixes comedy and drama superbly, but with this being more of a poignant story, I thought it was taken to another level. The performances are all top notch, but Terry Molloy is...

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS ISSUE IS NOW SOLD OUT The Happy Shopper DWM returns.  It might be a brand-new series of Doctor Who, but here at Fish Custard Towers, we continue to push the same old 'entertaining' fluff and occasional serious bits.  In Issue 5, we have these following hors d'oeuvre (I had to Google it to get the correct spelling): Our Sarah Jane - Tributes from fans of Elisabeth Sladen The Brig: A Great Chap Why I Watch Who Poetry A Look At The Scarifyers, plus an interview with creator Simon Barnard Actor, gigolo and columnist Harry Sedgewick offers some more of his wisdom Review of the opening 2 episodes of Series 6!
