Five years ago - May 2001
Big Finish

Warewolves in Rio and the welcome return of Eleanor Bron. It's a Platt so you know it must be good.

 

Did I buy it?

Yes - the woman in FP was in no mood to humour someone who wasn't sure how to pronounce the title.


BBC Video

The VHS range limps towards extinction with the re-release of a popular tale of Paris, paintings and punches.

 

Did I buy it?

Yes - though it only contained episodes one to three but I wasn't going all the way back to Coventry for a refund.


EDA

Trevor Baxendale pens what Amazon UK described as "Another Doctor, Fitz and Anji novel"

 

Did I buy it?

Probably - it seems likely it is in my enormous stack.


PDA

Peter Darvill-Evans decides to pair the 4th Doctor and Nyssa in a tale of ahead-of-its-time science.

 

Did I buy it?

No - it rings no bells at all.


DWM

DWM goes smutty with a lingerie themed headline. But makes up for it with the now legendary PIP AND JANE~! interview.

Did I buy it?

Yes - I dug it out not that long ago to re-read the PIP AND JANE~! interview.


Email me if I've missed something interesting that came out during the month in question
