The 13th Doctor returns!
Today saw the release of "Doctor Who: Vampire Weekend" the first
story of the 13th Doctor Adventures range of audios from Big
Finish Productions, starring Jodie Whittaker and Mandip Gill as
the 13th Doctor and Yaz. I can't upload the whole story here but
here's a link to the trailer...

[1min 38secs]
VERDICT: "Vampire Weekend" is actually quite good... I only
decided to take a chance on this range as Big Finish are usually
quite good at what they do, so I thought on audio they'd give
the 13th Doctor a decent enough story to launch the series, and
I'm glad I did. "Vampire Weekend" is a good Doctor Who story,
basic enough in fairness, and with a predictable twist, but
quite good fun none the less...
If anyone here is actually interested in Doctor Who stuff,
there's also a behind the scenes interview that Big Finish done
with Jodie Whittaker and Mandip Gill... and they both seem to be
as mad as a box of frogs!

I think English is the word you are looking for! ;-)
They are both from Yorkshire so they must talk like people from
that part of the UK do... what my buddies from London would call
"up norf".

IIRC that's a bit further north... although when I lived in
London the Chelsea crew referred to anything north of Watford
as "up norf" so I suppose it's all the one at the end of the
day... :-)
I found them both funny in that 'interview'... more
appropriately known as the Jodie & Mandip show! The 13th Doctor
audio adventure [Vampire Weekend] is full of humour too, they
clearly have great chemistry together. If only Chris Chibnall
had stuck with the one companion for the 13th Doctor's TV era...
