Join us as we look back on the opening episode of the Fifth Doctor’s era, as Peter Davison makes his first full appearance as Doctor Who.
Listen out for wry observations, TARDIS talk, and thoughts about how the show compares with other episodes in the same run. James McLean and Brian Terranova are your hosts – why not get your DVD or streaming service ready and watch along with them?
Doctor Who Series 12 has finished – but what did we make of The Timeless Children? Despite leaks and spoilers aplenty, it managed to surprise. But does it offer a brand new direction for Doctor Who beyond the hodge-podge of ideas?
Christian Cawley and James McLean work it out.
We’re taking a break for a month – we’ll see you again around Easter!
Hot on the heels of part one, part 2 of the Doctor Who Series 12 opener, Spyfall, has just aired in the show’s usual Sunday evening slot.
This week, Christian Cawley, Brian A Terranova, and James McLean discuss the story in-depth, along with a surprising realisation. They consider elements of characterisation, as well as praise the revised approach. There’s also some discussion of the preceding episode, its memorable cliffhanger, and the performance of Sacha Dhawan as the latest incarnation of the Master.
PLUS: why was the sound quality so bad in portions of the last podKast? Christian explains how it had something to do with a pantomime (oh no it didn’t!). ALSO: just how long have we been doing this show?
Doctor Who is back with a bang and a twist with Skyfall, the first episode of a two part story kicking off Series 12. Christian Cawley and Gareth Kavanagh mull it over, with a bit of help from… you!
This podKast is a bit shorter than usual due to the limited schedule and time between the two episodes. However, we’re planning to reconvene with a bit more purpose and some in-depth discussion of the Spyfall story as a whole during the coming week.
In the meantime, hit play on this – and if you’re a regular on our Facebook page, listen out for a mention!
Those eyes. Sparkling and glittering yet creepy. ‘Yep I definitely think this fella is scary’ I thought as I finished off my pizza and chips, watching as Adric was tied up in a metal web…
We’ll be honest: you’ve probably heard this podKast before. Whether it was the Doctor Who series 9 finale podKast, the series 8 finale podKast, or even The Time of the Doctor, what you’re about to hear will seem extremely familiar.
Just like The Doctor Falls.
But on the other hand, how else are you going to spend 80 minutes in the company of Christian Cawley, James McLean, and Brian Terranova? So, indulge us as we drill-down into the flaws of The Doctor Falls, while keeping a firm hand on the episode’s positives.
