Who's He? Podcast

5 years ago three young fresh faced lads full of optimism began a podcast called the Who's He? Podcast. And now 5 years later, those same three lads are now old, knackered, jaded and still turning out the same old rubbish but thought they would celebrate this fact somehow.

So here we go then, it's the Who's He? Podcast 5th anniversary special! And in their usual style of not bothering with anything special, Phil, Paul and a returning and completely unprepared Tony provide for your listening pleasure a commentary for The Three Doctors!

To prove they have learnt absolutely nothing over the years, they bring you the same mix of silence, bad jokes, facts from the day of broadcast and more silence.

But a very big thank you to everyone who has stuck with us over the years, we very much appreciate it!

In this companion special, Phil is joined by J.R. Southall, co-host of the Blue Box Podcast and writer for Starburst Magazine to discuss J.R.'s favourite companion Romana II.

In this weeks edition of the Who's He? Podcast, the intrepid reviewing duo of Phil and Paul press their ears against the radiogram to listen to Crime of The Century from Big Finish. In this 7th Doctor story set during what would have been series 27 had the show not been cancelled back in the day, the lads marvel at Sylvester McCoy's trapped in a box acting and despair at the alien villains talking like surfer dudes. But did they enjoy it? Listen to find out!

And in the news, series 10 to start filming in May, some Target book re-releases, semi-stats and in Omega's Tat Corner it's Doctor Who, Willy Wonka and Sherlock tat!

In this edition of the Who's He? Podcast, Phil and Paul return to their series 2 retrospective with Love and Monsters. Yes, the pair of them were not looking forward to rewatching this not particularly well received story from Russell T. Davies, with Phil dreading having to watch Peter Kay and Paul dreading having to watch Marc Warren. But which one of them changed their mind about their least favourite actor and did either of them change their mind about this story?

And in a very slow news week, Steven Moffat receives an OBE and also lets slip that he is writing the 2017 Christmas special which leads Phil and Paul (with no authority at all) to announce that this will be Peter Capaldi's regeneration story. And in Omega's Tat Corner, it's blu-ray tat that everyone already owns.

In this weeks edition of the Who's He? Podcast, Paul and Phil read and review the Target novelisation of Planet of Fire written by Peter Grimwade. Yes, in a story that sees Turlough leave the TARDIS, the Master getting killed off (again) and Peri joining the TARDIS crew, the intrepid reviewing duo compare the TV version to the written word and decide that this is a saucy read due to the appearance of "the little Master". Listen to find out what that all means!

And in the news this week, Phil and Paul pay tribute to Robert Banks Stewart who sadly passed away and there's pointless awards news too!

Oh, and something about Steve Moffat leaving and Chris Chibnall taking over.

In this edition of the Who's He? Podcast, Phil talks to Hayden Gribble from the Diddly Dum Podcast to discuss his favourite Doctor Who companion - Jamie McCrimmon.

In their first podcast of 2016, Phil and Paul have a listen to Legend of The Cybermen, a sixth Doctor audio story from Big Finish. In this sequel to the Mind Robber, The War Games AND the Wheel in Space, the Doctor teams up again with Zoe Heriot and Jamie McCrimmon to tackle the Cybermen in a most unpredictable place. So will Phil and Paul enjoy this rather continuity heavy story? Listen to find out but be aware that there are spoilers aplenty in this weeks podcast!

And in the news this week, Peter Capaldi and Steven Moffat hint that series 10 could be their last, Paul McGann is up for returning as the Doctor on TV and in Omega's Tat Corner, two items of tat that neither Phil nor Paul understand.

Full of booze and turkey, Phil and Paul review this years Christmas special The Husbands of River Song written by Steven Moffat. Did they find this years special to be the present they wanted from Santa or was it a disappointing pair of y-fronts from a relative they don't know? Well, if you listen to this it may be difficult to tell but they review this story with the same level of professionalism they deliver each week. In other words - none.

And in the news this week, it's the final stats of the year, the possibility of Doctor Who being made by an independent production company and in Omega's Tat Corner it's drinks related tat!

All this plus listener feedback!

Ho ho ho!! Welcome to the Who's He? Podcast Christmas Special as once again the Doctor Who specials of Christmas past are plundered to reveal The Christmas Invasion featuring the full debut of David Tennant as the Doctor. Join Ebeneezer Phil and Frosty Paul as they reminisce about the first Doctor Who Christmas special since The Feast of Steven and ponder whether this story required more of the Doctor and whether this is a stuffed tasty turkey of a Christmas story or a certifiable plum duff?

And in the news, Phil admits to his lies from the previous podcast and brings more stats to the proceedings, new writers hinted for Series 10 and one last Christmas gift in Omega's Tat Corner.

This is it folks, the series finale! Join Phil and Paul as they ponder over Hell Bent but is the review you were expecting? Was this the episode that Phil and Paul were expecting? Well, it appears not and don't hold back with what they exactly thought which could put them at odds with the rest of fandom! However, this week the reviewing duo discuss whether lots of good ideas make a good story, new sonic screwdrivers, the return of Clara Oswald and just how good did that classic TARDIS console room look?

There is also listener feedback on the finale and also some familiar voices sum up series 9.

And in the news, another update on the North American DVD release of The Underwater Menace, the annual Bonhams auction, the last stats of this year and in Omega's Tat Corner it's yet another Christmas jumper and model kit that has Phil salivating.
