Welcome to the first of a planned three-part miniseries on The Daleks' Master Plan. This week we are joined by John Peel, who wrote the two-book novelization, and Darren Mooney of The 250 Podcast and The M0vie Blog.

These episodes of Doctor Who Literature follow on from Jason's two most recent appearance on Trap One: a discussion of the recovery of two episodes of DMP, and a long form look at DMP Episode 1 - The Nightmare Begins.

Jason provides a bonus solo audio commentary of DMP Episode 5 - Counter Plot.

Originally released in June 2022, this classic episode of Doctor Who Literature fell out of the Spotify archives. The episode has been slightly re-edited and reposted, in anticipation of our coming mini-series on The Daleks' Master Plan. If you discovered DWLit after 2024, this will be your first opportunity to hear Jason's interview with long-time DW author John Peel.

As this Doctor Who Literature episode was in production, it was announced that two missing installments from The Daleks' Masterplan, both broadcast in November 1965. These will be available for UK audiences in April 2026. This is tremendously exciting news and will be dominating Doctor Who podcast discussions for several weeks.

But this week we are up to the second of three Missing Season 23 novelizations. Melvin Pena is on board this week to help Jason try and make sense of the various elements of this story.
