The Who Club Podcast - Episode 6: An EPIC Who news roundup / The Brain of Morbius review / The top 3 Scary Who stories

Hello and welcome to October’s edition of The Who Club Podcast! It’s Halloween… MWHAHAHA! And we’re getting into the spooky spirit (see what we did there…) with this special edition of the podcast. In this episode, we’ll be taking a look at: * Who News: With so many huge announcements and news stories over the last month, we’re taking a quick whip-around the Whoniverse, looking at (deep breath!) the BBC’s official tender document for the next era of the show; A.I. ‘episodes’ and comments by the BBC’s director-general; comments from Russell T. Davies’ recent memoir, “The Queerest of Folk”; the new movie screenings of “The Impossible Planet” & “The Satan Pit”; and the reveal of new details about TARDIS Crew, the brand new CBeebies animated show! * Classic Review: With today being Halloween, we’ve gone spooky and Gothic here at The Who Club… and what story can be more fitting for this month than the 1976 classic “The Brain of Morbius”! We’re taking a trip to Karn, where dark forces are at work… * Who Top 3: A brand new feature where we pick a theme and then decide on our top 3 picks connected with it. And, for this inaugural outing, what could be more fitting for October than picking our top 3 scary stories! We’d love your comments and suggestions, so please leave them below!

The Who Club Podcast - Episode 5: Coming soon - The next year for Big Finish / The Zygon Invasion & The Zygon Inversion review / Is the ‘Earth invasion’ story Doctor Who’s bread and butter?

Hello, and welcome to the fifth episode of The Who Club podcast! We’re back from our summer break - ready for a new season of discussing Doctor Who! In this episode, we’ll be taking a look at: * Who News: A quiet summer means we’ll be looking at Big Finish and what they are doing in these new wilderness years to keep the flame of the show alive. * Classic Review: With “Circuit Breaker” having just ended, and the Twelfth Doctor returning on audio during the summer, we’re travelling back to 2015 and looking back at one of the biggest and, potentially, one of the most controversial stories of the Peter Capaldi era - “The Zygon Invasion” and “The Zygon Inversion”! * Who Debates: There are many types of Doctor Who stories - but is the ‘Earth invasion’ (aliens coming to Earth in the present day) the show’s bread-and-butter genre? Is it what defines the show, or an overrated genre that doesn’t always deliver? We’d love your comments and suggestions, so please leave them below! All feedback is gratefully appreciated!

Hello, and welcome to the fourth episode of The Who Club podcast! In this episode, we’ll be discussing: * Who News: Obviously, we’ll be discussing the BIG news surrounding the cancellation of the 2026 Doctor Who Christmas special, the departures of Russell T Davies and Bad Wolf Studios, and the announcement that Doctor Who is being put out to tender. * Classic Review: Series 2 of modern Doctor Who turns 20 this year, and so, to mark the occasion, we go far out into space and take a look at “The Impossible Planet” and “The Satan Pit”, discussing everything from philosophy, fear… and the Ood!

The Who Club Podcast - Episode 3: Circuit Breaker announcement / The Dalek Invasion of Earth review - Part 2 / Companion departures - emotional or reserved?

Hello, and welcome to the third episode of The Who Club podcast! We’d like to start with a quick PSA on a couple of points. The first is that, due to an unfortunate technical issue, the sound quality of this episode is not up to the same standard as our first two. We can only apologise, and despite our best efforts to clean it up, there are some issues in places. It might be worth listening through headphones, just to make sure you catch everything. We suspect the issue may have been due to post-recording conversion, and we hope to eliminate it for future episodes. The second note is that this episode was recorded before the BBC’s announcement on the 10th of June that the 2026 Christmas special has been cancelled. As such, there are a few references throughout that are now very outdated. Obviously, we will cover this news in full in the next episode, but as a heads-up, we wanted to let you know before you listen. Call the redundant references a ‘historical artefact’. :) In this episode, we’ll be discussing: * Who News: We talk about the announcements surrounding “Circuit Breaker”, the upcoming multi-platform Doctor Who event, starring Jo Martin as the Fugitive Doctor! * Classic Review: We continue and conclude our review of “The Dalek Invasion of Earth”, looking at explosion stock footage, the Slyther, and THAT ending! * Who Debates: Tying into our review of “The Dalek Invasion of Earth”, we discuss and debate whether companion departures should be reserved and chaste - or if an emotional send-off is the way to pay tribute to the show’s audience identification figures? We’d love to receive your comments and suggestions, so do please leave them below! All feedback is gratefully appreciated! Why not follow us on our Instagram as well?

The Who Club Podcast - Episode 2: Missing episode recoveries / The Dalek Invasion of Earth review - Part 1 / Does the Doctor work better as an 'older' figure?

Hello, and welcome to the second episode of The Who Club podcast! Thank you for all the feedback and comments on the first episode! We really appreciate it, and we hope you’ll stick with us! In this episode, we’re going way back to the 1960s: * Who News: We celebrate the return of episodes 1 and 3 of the 1965 classic “The Daleks’ Master Plan”! * Classic Review: We go right back to the early days of the show, and, marking the recovery of “The Daleks’ Master Plan”, we look at the first half of the 1964 serial “The Dalek Invasion of Earth”. * Who Debates: With a lot of excitement about the early days of Doctor Who, famous for making its lead character an old man, we ask if the Doctor works better as an ‘older’ figure - or is youth the key to a compelling incarnation?
