In this episode, Messrs Tesla and Edison, a.k.a AC/DC, snipe at each other and help the Doctor outwit some rather nasty space scavenger scorpions. The two agree that it was great seeing the fam in period costume and David was excited about seeing a steam train finally in Doctor Who. Ben wonders why a new monster of the week when there is such a rich back catalog to use. Overall good writing, directing, and performances combine for an enjoyable mid-series romp in 1903 New York despite some sloppy CGI work. Opening music is from this week's soundtrack and closing music is "You Really Need to Get Out of Those Clothes" from series 11, both composed by Segun Akinola. We recorded this episode on 20 January 2020.

So Orphan 55 was that green haired kid, right? Despite the tantalizing deep space squid, we're instead trapped this week on a mysterious planet in a resort under siege by the dregs of humanity, but that's nothing a few well-placed bombs can't solve. We discuss the efficacy of the Doctor's speech and what it should mean for next week, but won't. Opening music is "Tsuranga" by Segun Akinola from series 11 and closing music is "Have a Drink on Me" from AC/DC's 1980 album "Back in Black". We recorded this episode on 12 January 2020.

In which Ben deals with the cold, harsh reality that the Kasaavin really weren't the Vardans in disguise and David dwells on founding fathers of Gallifrey and how it could relate to the United States. Yes, this week the conclusion of Spyfall is discussed this week complete with historical cameos from Charles Babbage and almost replacement fam: Ada Lovelace, and Noor Inayat Khan. Plus Ben reads Sacha Dhawan's lovely Instagram post where he wrote about being cast as the Master. Opening music is by Segun Akinola from the Spyfall, part 2 soundtrack. Closing music is the timeless "Master's Theme" composed by Dudley Simpson. We recorded this episode on 5 January 2020.

With 2020 upon us all, it is great to see the return of Doctor Who to BBC One with a new adventure, Spyfall, part one! Ben explains his reasoning why he thinks those shimmery aliens are Vardans, while a skeptical David suggests perhaps they're Gallifreyans from an alternative universe; and is time and space big enough for both Lenny Henry and Sacha Dhawan? Opening and closing music is from the Spyfall soundtrack by Segun Akinola. We recorded this episode on 2 January 2020.

It's series 12 trailer day on Metebelis Two. Ben and David almost go frame-by-frame over the two trailers and speculate on what awaits us in series 12. Should the Doctor be working for MI-6? Are those really Vardans? Is Lenny Henry the Doctor's friend or nemesis? Has the Meddling Monk regenerated into the Meddling Nun? All this and more as we nibble at breadcrumbs that have fallen from Chibnall's high table. Opening Music is "It's a Good Day to Save the World" from the Danger Twins. Closing Music is "This New Nose Is So Unreliable" by Segun Akinola. We recorded this episode on 16 December 2019.

It wouldn't be Christmas without Mrs Baddeley's plum pudding and so Ben and David travel along with the Doctor and Charley to an old Edwardian mansion in 1906 to hear The Chimes of Midnight. What makes this story tick? Is this merely a ghost story, or does writer Rob Shearman have more to say about class, horror, the line between fantasy and reality? Plus Ben, keeper of the tome, cracks open the Big Book of Big Finish and relays behind the scene details of the story's production. This episode's opening and closing excerpts is from the Chimes soundtrack with music by Russell Stone, sound design by Andy Hardwick, and humming featuring Louise Rolfe. Tick-Tock, Bing-Bong. We recorded this episode on 13 December 2019.

In a twisted mash-up of Osirian gift giving and the twelve days of Christmas, the Metebelis Two bring you Sutekh's twelve gifts of Christmas to all Whomanity. Yes kiddos, Sutekh Claus is coming to town. What gifts is he going to bestow? Opening and closing music are also a bit of a mash-up of the Pyramids of Mars and Christmas music from first Elvis and then Jimmy McGriff. Ho Ho Ho. We recorded this episode on 8 December 2019.

The Brigadier reunites with the Doctor in this week's journey into Big Finish's back catalogue with The Spectre of Lanyon Moor. This is a story mines a rich vein of classic 1970s Who to tell a new, but familiar story perfect for tea time. Does this story hold the secret to the sixth Doctor's character's rehabilitation? Are round-trip holidays to Athens that short? And, why is British electricity better? Answers to these questions in more in this weeks' podcast. Music this episode is from Alistair Lock's score from The Spectre of Lanyon Moor. We recorded this episode on 24 November 2019.

The series 12 trailer dropped this past weekend, so what better time for the Metebelis Two to give their quick take on what they thought. Maddeningly though, no broadcast date was given so we speculate about possible rumoured air dates; which, in turn, leads to discussing some of the other trolling rumours swirling around series 12, and ultimately, the fate and future of Doctor Who at the BBC. Opening music is from Segun Akinola's series 11 soundtrack. Closing music is from Alistair Lock's score from the Spectre of Lanyon Moor.

This week we chat about the magical meeting that took place during this year's Children in Need special, when Anastasia, a young Who fan, met her amazing Doctor, Jodie Whittaker. Then we discuss the announcement of series 12 writers and directors and speculate on what Chibnall has planned for our favourite show in 2020? Opening and closing music is from Segun Akinola's series 11 soundtrack; including excerpts from "Sonic Screwdriver" and "Me and My Mates".
