In which there is evil from beyond the grave!!1!! And K-9
- Evil from beyond the grave!!1!!
- Peter Knight's band Gigspanner, who play English and world folk have put a couple of lovely pieces on utu, including: English folk song The Week Before Easter, 5min, and Cajun style fiddlesticks in Louisiana Flack, 3min.

38. Festival of Death, by Jonathan Morris, is an original Doctor Who novel starring the fourth Doctor and the second Romana and K-9.
