Feb 22 2025 75 mins

Another season in the can! Season 18 done and dusted, and you know what that means… it’s time for our customary season retrospective, in which we take a look back at the entirety of the season with our blend of awards, metrics, and questions from our friends on social media. These are always a lot of fun for us to do, and we really hope that you enjoy listening to this as much

Episode 140: Let Me Speak With Your Manager (Logopolis)

Feb 08 2025 73 mins

It’s the end, but the moment has been prepared for… (were we ever going to start out this blurb with anything else!?) We finally reach the end of Tom Baker’s seven year tenure on the show with the Master embarking on a bonkers scheme that threatens the entire universe. But one question remains – is Logopolis actually any good!? Join us as we discuss dressing for job that

Episode 139: Bowie: Keeper of Earth (The Keeper of Traken)

Jan 25 2025 61 mins

Back in N-Space, we find ourselves in the very odd (but apparently extremely harmonious) society of Traken, ruled over by an apparently all-powerful Keeper in The Keeper of Traken! All is not as it seems, as an old, kinda crispy enemy lurks in the background, ready to steal all of our bodies in his quest to keep living… Join us as we discuss the clear influences of Shakespeare,

Episode 138: The Printer and the BabyBjörn (Warriors' Gate)

Jan 11 2025 65 mins

It’s time to BRING THE WEIRD as we wrap up the E-Space trilogy with a white void, slavers, lion-man slaves (who used to be slavers), magic mirrors, and more questions than answers. Oh, and Adric spends most of the time flipping coins. It can only be Warriors’ Gate! Join us as we discuss how the Tharils look at time (or how they think they’re better than everyone else), how

Episode 137: Give Me an Ankle, at Least! (State of Decay)

Dec 28 2024 60 mins

It’s Doctor Who-does-Vampires as we encounter everyone’s favourite bloodsuckers in E-Space (well, everyone except Diana, who apparently thoroughly dislikes vampires!) Throw in some absolutely unnecessary Time Lord lore, and we have State of Decay. Join us as we discuss whether this would feel more natural with Dudley Simpson’s organic music over the synth, the merits and is

Bonus Episode 40: He WAS the Dish of the Day! (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy)

Dec 21 2024 50 mins

For our 2024 Holiday special, Julie’s taking over the show, and we’re joined by our favourite regular guest R. Alan Siler, as choose not do something seasonal, but to do something very much related to Doctor Who that we’ve really wanted to do for a while now… and so, we’re heading into the world of Douglas Adams, as we discuss the 1981 TV version of The Hitchhiker’s Gui

Episode 136: Dungeons & Dragons: Mistfall (Full Circle)

Dec 14 2024 58 mins

We’re off into E-Space this episode, as we encounter a group of people who’ve come full circle in… uh… Full Circle! We are also introduced to our newest companion, Adric. What will the Watchers think of him!? Will it be love at first sight? (Let’s be honest… probably not. Everyone knows his reputation!) Join us as we discuss unexpected semi-nudity (butts!), the mathem

Episode 135: Cosplaying as Skeletor (Meglos)

Nov 30 2024 49 mins

Moving further into this brave new era of Doctor Who, Jacqueline Hill returns in nobody’s favourite story, Meglos! In addition to Barbara-but-not-actually-Barbara showing up, we also get a genocidal cactus. It’s an absolutely bonkers one, that's for sure… Join us as we discuss balancing out your gut bacteria (lest you suffer from chronic hysteresis!), the colour-coding of s

Episode 134: One Berry Short of a Bushel (The Leisure Hive)

Nov 15 2024 68 mins

It’s all change as we kick off Season 18 with The Leisure Hive! New title sequence, new arrangement of the theme, new incidental music, and a new costume for the Doctor! Meanwhile, we welcome our new co-host Diana for her first regular episode with us. We couldn’t be more excited to talk about nuclear war and tachyonics… Join us as we discuss how awful this story makes Brig
