Something Who

After watching Doctor Who for over 45 years, Richard finally has a Doctor that sounds like him. Well, a little bit. Since none of them could get a ticket to the all-star Sheffield premiere, he's invited the 13cast crew round to discuss the debut of the Yorkshire Doctor in a story set in Yorkshire with someone who was born and brought up in Yorkshire. Yorkshire.

After losing his grip at the helm of the Grumpcast, Richard falls to Earth and recruits some new friends. Together they chew over the latest trailer for Series 11 and take a fair few tangents. If Paul sounds like he's locked in a cupboard in the Dalek city on Skaro, thanks to the magic of Skype, he may very well be.

We're back, and frankly it's a bit late. And we've lost Simon along the way. But we're here now, and after Paul gives Richard a Something Who briefing, it's on to Something Old - Spearhead from Space - and Something New - Rose. Join the Something Who gang - Richard, Giles, Paul and Mike - while we ponder first stories, Autons, where we originally saw the stories and who thought it was a good idea to invite Robert Holmes back after The Krotons and The Space Pirates.

Well, it's finally here. We light the blue touch paper with Something Old(ish) - the Macra Terror - Something New(ish) - Gridlock - superficially linked by the Macra, but actually with much broader ties than that. Join the Something Who gang - Richard, Giles, Paul, Simon and Mike - as we chew over this story pairing, pondering issues such as faith, redemption, whatever happened to Ben and when exactly will Mike mention chocolate eclairs?

Richard's excited about the imminent arrival of Grexit Day, until the rest of the 13cast team point out what exit from the Grumpcast might actually mean. After comparing notes on how podcasting has changed their lives (hardly), it's time to review Series 11 in the style of our new podcast, Something Who, comparing new and classic Doctor Who stories. Something Who will arrive in a new podcast feed from April.

Crowded TARDIS? More like crowded 13cast! Mike finally catches up with us and, after a Morecambe and Wise catchphrase competition, we discuss the New Year’s Day episode, Resolution. Given the early(ish) hour of recording, Paul still seems to be suffering from a bit of Temporal Drift, but at least the audio issues are behind us. And when we've finished with the episode itself, we make our own Doctor Who Resolutions.
