Wow.

AllRead More →
Taking a turn away from the usual podKast format this week, we head back in time, not to 2005, but to 1985, and the much-maligned Colin Baker story Timelash. Over the past week, the Kasterborous team of Christian Cawley, Brian A Terranova and James McLean has watched Timelash (in varyingRead More →

Missing episodes – it’s something of a grokking topic for Doctor Who fans. One minute they’re lost, the next they turn up. Indeed, even for the Kasterborous PodKast (with a “K”) we recently unearthed lost material that we had intended to bring to you today… only for it to vanishRead More →
It’s podKast time again, and this week we discuss a couple of Doctor Who-related matters. Most topical is our reaction to Colin Baker’s ejection from “the jungle”, but we also discuss the beauty of the “base under siege” adventures that punctuate the show’s history.

A little later than usual, it’s time for the podKast! This week, Christian, James McLean and Brian Terranova discuss the horror that is…. Pip and Jane Baker! The husband-and-wife team had four sets of scripts on Doctor Who in the 1980s: Mark of the Rani, Terror of the Vervoids, TheRead More →
