What defined the Chibnall era? How did fandom process the era? How is the era being reassessed? How did those behind the era see it when they first began work on it, and how do they see it now that it’s over? Audio commentaries, interviews, panel discussions — we discuss all of these through a bookending chat tracing it from the commentary for its very first episode, to Chibnall’s debrief conversations over his first fan convention appearance following his era ending.
We finish our series of exploring the commentaries of the Chibnall Era in a metacommentary looking at a new 2023 interview with Chibnall, the audio commentary for The Woman Who Fell to Earth, and coverage of the 2023 Gallifrey One fan convention.
