Joe & Frazer & Si; nothing will ever be the same again! Is this interesting, continuity shattering genius or a load of rubbishy exposition? Stick around for last 20 minutes while we take a deep dive into discussing Doctor Who fandom.
Joe & Si & Frazer; ‘THEY KNOW!’ Huge love for a muscular Doctor Who episode that’s ‘kicking the can.’ Terrific music, suspense, action, performances and Cybermen. We adore Ashad, Jodie and even the shitty CyberDrones!
Joe & Jason; we are your servants! Is this the most satisfying episode six? What is the number one on Skaro? Is Dalek dialogue contradictory? Why is the Doctor so callous? Does Bragan have the best downfall of any villain?
Joe & Jason; conquer and destroy! We take a walk through ALL of the Doctor’s debuts…but we agree that Power is the best. Mr Chinn and Marcus Scarman face off! Stunning Dalek animation impresses. What is the best Dalek line?
Joe & Jason; What is Jason’s revolutionary way of watching Doctor Who? Christopher Barry is celebrated, and five minutes about the Tripods. The Daleks are at their devious best and it features one of the best ever cliffhangers.
Joe & Jason; we are your servants! What are the worst Doctor Who stories in terms of scientific accuracy? Who is the unsung hero of the show? Who is holiday this week? Who is exploiting the Daleks for what?
Joe & Jason; espionage on Vulcan! What was Jason’s first exposure to this story? Why is this Joe’s number one ‘I wish they would find this’? Who actually wrote this? Why is Janley such a great character? A cliffhanger of complete suspense!
Joe & Jason; the single most important Doctor Who story in the shows history. Taking liberties with animation? Is it a miracle that this exists in the first place. Is making the new Doctor so mysterious a deliberate creative choice? ‘It’s that damn bank clerk!’
Joe & Greg; strangled by tentacles! What is the right amount of dramatic shorthand? Can you turn Ghandi into a killer? Can you rely on actors to stay still? Snapping assholes??? The Doctor emerges…
Joe & Greg; avoiding episode three altogether! More fabulous Meg and Sam scenes! Murder and mayhem, absurd monsters that are chilling, a Doctor on the hunt, dry wit, marvellous direction and an unforgettable cliffhanger. Is this the scariest Doctor Who story?
