Who's He? Podcast

It's the Who's He? Podcast Christmas Special! And as the lads have run out of TV Christmas Specials to review (at least until The Feast Of Steven is recovered), they turn to Big Finish for help with a listen to Flip Flop featuring the 7th Doctor and Mel in a Christmas set story. It's the lads first Mel Bush audio story, so how will they find Mel now in this rather unique take on a time travel story, toned down or just as shrill as before? And just how festive is this story, does it reach the heights of an Andy Williams Christmas spectacular or as festive as a Seaside Special hosted by Peter Powell (ask your parents)?

And in the news this week, Class confirmed for a late night slot, Toby Whithouse confirmed for writing duties on series 10 and in Omega's Tat Corner it's time piece tat!

And finally, it just leaves us to say a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all our listeners. Thanks for sticking with us!

This week Paul and Phil discuss the final two episodes of Class, The Metaphysical Engine or What Quill Did and The Lost. And what did they think? Were they left disappointed or is there the promise of more to come and does it deserve a second series? Join Phil and Paul as they discuss this somewhat up and down series and marvel as Phil undermines his own argument.

And in the news, the broadcast time for The Return of Doctor Mysterio, the Vashta Nerada meet the 4th Doctor for Big Finish, Delia Derbyshire has a road named after her, an unwelcome return of the dreaded stats and in Omega's Tat Corner it's festive fare all round!

In this edition of the Who's He? Podcast, Phil and Paul take a look at episodes 5 and 6 of Class, namely Brave-ish Heart and Detained. So how does the conclusion to the Shadowkin two parter fair? And what about our heroes having to divulge the truth to their friends in the claustraphobic Detained? Well to be honest, Phil and Paul are starting to struggle and compare, perhaps unfairly, the series so far to Miracle Day! A sure sign the pair of them are starting to struggle! But it's not all bad as they still find plenty of stuff to like. Honestly!

And in the news, a teaser, trailer, whatever for The Return of Doctor Mysterio on this years Children in Need and talking of the Christmas special, news of it being shown in US cinemas and Australian TV and the rumour mill starts up again about Capaldi leaving. Again.

In this weeks Who's He? Podcast, Phil and Paul cast their eye over episodes 3 and 4 of Class, Nightvisiting and Co-Owner of a Lonely Heart. As a lot of Doctor Who fans are undecided, love it or hate it, what do Paul and Phil think of the series so far? Has it found its feet or is still finding its way and establish its identity? Well the pair of them seem to know, so tune in to listen to them discuss, argue, laugh and sword fight (that may be a lie) their way through this weeks podcast!

And in the news this week, a colourised version of the animated The Power of The Daleks is heading our way, The Doctor Who Experience is set to close, some semi-stats for Class and in Omega's Tat Corner its time for Christmas tat!

After months of waiting, Class is finally here! So after all the reviews are out and better late than never, Phil and Paul chime in with their views on For Tonight We Might Die and The Coach With The Dragon Tattoo. Did the dynamic duo enjoy this highly anticipated Doctor Who spin off? Did they agree on absolutely everything? Listen as you might be surprised! Or maybe it's business as usual?

And in the news, the extras are announced for the Power of The Daleks download and DVD release, three original Doctor Who books are re-released by BBC Books and the sad passing of Steve Dillon.

This week, Phil and Paul read a book and talk about it! Yes, it's time for another Target review and this time they have chosen The Reign of Terror by Ian Marter to get their teeth into. And while Paul fends off fits of coughing during the recording, they both enjoy this tale of spies in revolutionary France and also make comparisions with the televised version but which fares better? Listen to find out!

And in the news, the title of this years Christmas special is revealed, a Class trailer hits the interwebs, there's awards news and the strange case of a classic series writer writing a script for series 10.

We're here! Phil and Paul have finally arrived at the end of their series 2 retrospective and Doomsday. Yes, heartstrings will be pulled and old enemies will face each other in pure fan wish fulfilment but was it worth the wait in the most arduous series review ever conducted by a podcast or were they left wanting more? Listen as Paul is dragged down to Phil's level!

And in the news, it's all about Class and the strange decision of BBC America and a long overdue return to Omega's Tat Corner.

In this edition of the Who's He? Podcast, Phil and Paul review Seasons of Fear from Big Finish. This 8th Doctor story featuring Paul McGann and India Fisher as Charlie Pollard sees the Doctor chasing a foe through the history of Britain who is working for an old foe. Now, while the returning foe is revealed in their spoilerific review, Paul recounts how Phil ruined the reveal for him with a simple text message!

And in the news, Phil and Paul catch up with what has been happening and it's quite a bit actually! Peter Capaldi gives away when Doctor Who will return to our screens next year, Power of The Daleks has been animated, when Class will be airing on BBC3 and Christopher Eccleston regretting not doing a 2nd series.

And breathe!

In this companion special edition of the Who's He? Podcast, Phil chats to Marc Atkinson from the Progtor Who Podcast about his favourite companion - Rose Tyler.

They also discuss Marc's career as a gigging musician and also about his book Eternal, so don't miss it!

In this edition of the Who's He? Podcast, Phil and Paul turn their attention to the Target novelisation of The Robots of Death by Terrance Dicks. In this classic Agatha Christie style whodunnit set IN THE FUTURE, can Phil and Paul separate the oh so wonderful images of the TV version from the written word or is this story just too damn good in its audio visual format? And will Paul ever get those tiny cows out of his mind?

And in the so called news, rumours abound that Peter Capaldi will stay on after series 10, Doctor Who: The Movie is coming to blu-ray and Peter Davison writes his autobiography.
