    2025 Series Review (We Recorded This A While Ago)

    Our lengthy and delayed look at the 2025 series of Doctor Who is finally here. A podcast full of worries and recriminations as we look at the end of the Ncuti Gatwa era (among other eras?), the decisions made during this spell, whether Doctor Who has a future, and how a future would even be possible in the current world of television.

    The Reality War (Rewrites and Regenerations)

    The delay on this episode is mainly due to some audio difficulties with the recording. I've tried to clean it up as best as I can, but it did affect the final product - which is oddly in keeping with it was probably like filming The Reality War. Chris Kocher and Mike Robinson join me to try and make sense of a series finale that was full of incident, but maybe a bit less on coherence. We also discuss what the dramatic and polarising choices in the final third of the episode mean for the future of the show - or even if there will be a future for the show.

    Wish World (The 20th Century Is Cancelled)

    From an undisclosed location comes our podcast on Wish World. Ken Deep and Rick Tetrault help me pick through the penultimate episode of the series as we talk about new aliases, a far right dream world and the return of an old enemy for The Doctor (and not just one).

    The Interstellar Song Contest

    The Story & The Engine (Diasporic Doctor Who)

    Forgive the sound problems on this. It took a couple of recordings, but in the end we cobbled together I show where you'll hear from MIke Robinson and Emma Foster joining myself to speak about The Story and The Engine. We look at the show's first trip to the continent, as well as Nigerian and diasporic culture.

    Lucky Day (Conrad Clark and Conspiracies)

    I'm joined by Emma Foster and Chris Kocher as we take a look at Lucky Day. The return of Ruby Sunday, the return of UNIT, and a new character in Conrad Clark. It gave us a bit more than we bargained for.

    The Well (I'm Not Sure We're Pronouncing Caoilfhionn Dunne's Name Correctly)

    Jenn Allen and Rick Tetrault join me to talk on the early clubhouse leader for this series's best episode. Talk on name pronounciations and skipping intros abound. We also get into what is by any measure, a pure banger of a Doctor Who episode.

    Lux (RTD's Americana)

    I'm joined by Mike Robinson and Ken Deep to pick through the episode 'Lux'. Featuring a look at how realistic 1950's Miami was, how Russell T Davies may feel about the fans, and a mention of a band who I feel confident you won't see coming if I gave you 100 guesses.
