They have also written a book, Strictly Come Dancing: Step-by-Step Dance Class , which illustrates each of the classic ballroom and Latin dances used in the series. I went to Kensington Dance Studio and met Kele Baker to talk about the book, the Argentine Tango &amp;#8212; and to sneak a few minutes of tango practice.

      <link>http://odeo.com/episodes/25471426-Doctor-Who-The-Lost-Stories-The-Stage-Podcast-45</link>
      <description>While Doctor Who may currently be one of the BBC&amp;#8217;s most popular dramas, that wasn&amp;#8217;t always the case. In the mid to late 1980s it was always skirting with cancellation. When BBC1 controller Michael Grade needed to find the money in his drama budget to launch EastEnders, Doctor Who was one of the places where he made his cuts. Though the series would return in 1986, the previous year&amp;#8217;s season was cancelled, with several scripts either fully written or at the commissioning and/or planning stages. Now, indie drama company Big Finish, which has been producing licensed Doctor Who audio dramas for over a decade, has adapted the episodes from the lost season into a series of audio dramas. The first, The NIghtmare Fair, is released later this month. Originally written by Graham Williams, it would have seen the Doctor (Colin Baker) and his companion Peri (Nicola Bryant) holidaying in Blackpool Pleasure Beach.
