October 19, 2021 Talks to Harrison & David about their choice of The End of Time Part Two (2/2)
Joe, David, Harrison, Rose, Martha, Donna, Sarah, Verity, Jackie & Nerys. Joe is in love with this; melodrama, emotion and terrific acting opportunities. Harrison is less convinced; plot contrivances and hubristic Doctors. And David preferred episode one but still loves anything that Bernard Cribbins does.

October 18, 2021 Talks to David & Harrison about someone’s (???) choice of The End of Time Part One (1/2)
Joe & David & Harrison and the End of Time Itself! How much of this is padding? Does David remember or understand any of the plot? Is this the contrived half of the story? Or is this all sublime melodrama with a classically absurd Master cliffhanger?
