Monday 1 January 2007. The Sarah Jane Adventures: Invasion of the Bane. We bring our first season to a close with the new beginning of Doctor Who’s most successful spinoff, in which a beloved TV heroine from our childhood was given one last chance (or twenty-seven last chances) to save the world.

Sunday 22 October 2006. Torchwood: Everything Changes. It’s 2006, which is just the time to launch a gritty and adult Doctor Who spinoff — Torchwood, a show with an immortal lead character which is basically about the finality of death. But has Torchwood learned anything from its parent show’s many, many launches and re-launches?

Sunday 25 December 2005. The Christmas Invasion. Just nine months after Doctor Who’s twenty-first century iteration burst triumphantly onto our screens, we all get together with Steven B to watch as the BBC’s flagship drama introduces its exciting new lead to nearly 10 million viewers on Christmas Day on BBC One. It ends up going pretty well.

Saturday 2 January 1971. Terror of the Autons. It feels like only a year ago that Doctor Who underwent a strange and cataclysmic soft reboot, and it looks like it’s happening again this week. Or is it?

The Pertwee I Have in My Head (Spearhead from Space)

Apr 20 2024 54 mins  
Saturday 3 January 1970. Spearhead from Space. In the first week of the 1970s, Doctor Who is back, with a new Doctor, a new alien threat, new companions and a new earthbound premise. So what makes it the same show?

Entering a New Phase (The Power of the Daleks)

Apr 13 2024 62 mins  
Saturday 5 November 1966. The Power of the Daleks. A big week for beginnings this week, with a new Doctor, a new origin story for the Daleks, and a whole new approach to defeating the bad guys. Oh, and a new podcast to discuss them all on. So let’s welcome Patrick Troughton to the studio floor, as we discuss The Power of the Daleks.
