It's Lynne's turn to do a hindsight-check. Join Deb, Katrina, and Lynne as they take a look back at the 3rd Doctor story "The Mutants". (No, not the 1st Doctor story "The Mutants". We call that "The Daleks". Deal with it.)

Today's recording is as cozy as the episode. Join Deb and Erika as they discuss another story that often lands near the top of the Doctor Who polls. Is "Midnight" as good as its rep? We dig in!

We don't do ads much on Verity!, but when we do, it's for something that's a genuine Happy Thing! We're pleased to bring you a snippet from an upcoming ep of David Tennant Does a Podcast With... Jim Parsons!

Our regular weekly ep will drop tomorrow morning as usual. This is just a fun bonus!

We're back with another received fan wisdom hindsight check. Join Deb, Erika, and Tansy as we talk about "The Caves of Androzani" and whether it really belongs at the top of all those fan polls. Is it the greatest Doctor Who story of all time? Or is is "a lot of men being unpleasant in the dark"?

Have you watched this story recently? If so, what did you think, and how did that compare with how you felt about it in the first place? Do you agree with its placement in fan polls? Let us know in the comments!

• Tansy
  • won an Aurealis Award for Best Fantasy Short Story for "Dragon by Subscription"!
  • looks forward to an online CoNZealand!
