What To Review - The Review Podcast

WE'RE BACK!

And today, we take a slightly different turn of events and take a bit of a glance at the past year that has been in the world of Doctor Who. Both Tom and Ben provide their opinions and thoughts on each episode of the season as well as some friendly banter, so sit tight and enjoy yourselves with this treat!

Tom and Ben are back for another review, but this time, it's a secret story. They have delved into the depths of the MYSTERY BOX and have found a story to review. And you'll only find out what it is if you listen to this podcast!

Arriving on the barren world of Androzani Minor, the Doctor and Peri find themselves embroiled in a long running, literal underground war. At the heart of the conflict is a substance called Spectrox - both valuable and deadly! The Doctor & Peri wind up being poisoned by the material, which is killing them slowly and painfully unless they can find a cure. As the conflict heats up and the situation gets more desperate, the Doctor realises time is running out - both for Peri and himself...

Freedom fighters attempt to thwart a Dalek invasion by traveling back in time to assassinate a delegate for the second World Peace Conference.

This serial is apart of the Jon Pertwee era and is the opener for Season 9.

In the dark looms of Gallifrey, an old enemy is working quietly away in the shadows attempting to frame the Doctor. When he is accused of killing the Lord President in cold blood, the Doctor is immediately put on trial. The truth soon unfolds when the Doctor enters the Matrix and discovers what really happened. Tom and Ben delve into this classic '70s gothic horror, and whether you deny this reality or not, their views may raise one or two eyebrows and will probably get fans squeeing with joy too.

It's Tom's pick today, and we go waaaay back to the 1960's, on the closure of a legendary age in Doctor Who history; William Hartnell's fantastic finale, 'The Tenth Planet'. This is the first episode of Who's To Review to feature Mr. Hartnell himself, the concept of regeneration and the dreaded Cybermen!

It's Tom's pick tonight and in this episode we uncover one of the most controversial episodes to date. That's right. It's none other than 'Delta and the Bannermen'!

(The Sylvester McCoy Era, Season 24, Story 3)

It's Ben's pick today, and this week we went back to the '80s and took a glance at one of Peter Davison's later stories as the Doctor, where he, Tegan and Turlough land on a planet occupied by an Earth colony and weird giant looking bugs. That's right, it's none other than 'FRONTIOS'!

It's the return of the mighty Pert, the Third Doctor, where he battles against those golden men who turn into spaghetti monsters in the much loved (or unloved by a minority) classic Doctor Who serial, 'THE CLAWS OF AXOS'!

It's time for episode five! In this review, the boys take a jump forward to the middle of the eighties, where Colin Baker is sporting the technicolor monstrosity of attire that he probably stole from Joseph. Tom and Ben watch a serial where the Sixth Doctor and Peri end up on the planet Necros where an old enemy has been mastering a ghoulish plan to wreak vengeance across the universe, but who will stop the Great Healer in the end? Listen in to find out our thoughts and make sure to check out this stellar story from the Classic Doctor Who DVD range!
