Who's He? Podcast

The lads get their teeth into Neil Gaimans highly anticipated story, Nightmare In Silver, that promised to make the Cybermen scary again. Well, that is certainly a bold claim and not one that goes unchallenged! Oh no, Phil and Paul have differing views on this weeks episode which leads to Phil having an internal struggle before the leprechaun on his shoulder tells him to burn stuff, while Paul does his best to change Phil's mind only to fail miserably. Phil also takes a moment this week to think of Jeri Ryan as Seven of Nine. A very long moment in fact. There is also a lot of talk about fanwank that could lead to blindness and they also briefly talk about She Said, He Said, the epilogue (yes, epilogue!) to The Name of The Doctor.

And in this weeks news, in the absence of any overnight viewing figures for Nightmare In Silver they make some up instead, news on showings for the blu-ray editions of the Peter Cushing Dalek films and in 50th Anniversary news, a photo of Matt Smith that has set tongues wagging and John Hurt lets the cat out of the bag which Phil and Paul talk about. Sort of.

This week the lads turn their attention to the Mark Gatiss story The Crimson Horror, the latest in this series of Doctor Who. What will they make of this Victorian romp in deepest, darkest Yorkshire with corpses in the canal and the return of the Paternoster Gang? One thing is for sure though, Paul is Mister Grumpy this week which makes a nice change from Phil!

And in the news this week, a brief summing up of the Who's He? Podcast's trip to the BFI to see The Caves of Androzani, the UK's Doctor Who DVD roster for the remainder of the year, the return of Omega's Tat Corner and a chance for Phil to let rip on those who think fans are being short changed with their percieved lack of Doctor Who content for the 50th Anniversary.

This week the lads turn their attention to the eagerly anticipated story Journey To The Centre Of The TARDIS. After the last two weeks of enjoyment for Phil and Paul, I'm afraid to say this week is a bit of a let down. No, they are not best pleased with this trip inside Sexy and at times get quite animated at this fun but rather disappointing story. But what did please them and what did annoy them? Listen and find out to this episode that will most probably ostracise them from fandom!!

And in the news week, some DVD news including one DVD that nearly made it's way into Omega's Tat Corner, the next in the Destiny Of the Doctor range from AudioGo and of course the return of Omega's Tat Corner with a book that will delight Doctor Who geeks everywhere.

This week Paul & Phil continue with their look at this series of Doctor Who by discussing the creepy and spooky Hide written by Neil Cross whilst cowering behind their cushions. Was this an improvement on his previous script or was it a bit of a clunker? Will the lads give another unanimous thumbs up to an episode of Doctor Who two weeks on the bounce or will they revert to type and give it the thumbs down? Also listen to Paul & Phil travel back to the 1960's where a man could "provide" for a lady whilst wearing his finest tweed.

And in the news this week, they catch up on viewing stats (the most popular part of the show), DVD news on The Ice Warriors and a brief discussion on the release of the posters for the upcoming episodes of this series, including the title of the last episode which has made fandom explode. Again.

Thisss week, the Who'ssss He? Podcassssst take a look at the latessst (I can't keep this up, I'm now covered in dribble) take a look at latest offering from series 7 of Doctor Who, Cold War. Will Phil & Paul actually like an episode this time round or will it be three out of three to get a negative review? What will they make of the return of one the classic series most iconic of the Doctors foes, the Ice Warriors? Listen to find out of course?

And in the news this week, Sylvester McCoy rules out the return of any of the classic series Doctors for the 50th Anniversary special, some more casting news for the 50th, a return to the anti matter universe of Omega's Tat Corner and Phil gets mad (don't get mad Phil, get even!) with the spoiler images posted on Twitter this week from the filming of the 50th special.

Oh and there's the small matter of the guys reading out some actual feedback!!

After last weeks disappointing outing for the Doctor, Phil and a returning Paul turn their attentions to the latest episode The Rings of Akhaten. Is this episode an improvement on last weeks or is it just another crushing disappointment? Listen to find out if this podcast is just another hatred and bile filled episode or full of wonder and delight. But during the course of this episode Phil makes up a new word and offers up his pen to Grandfather. Paul looks on and shakes his head in bemusement.

And in the news this week, Christopher Eccleston on joining the 50th Anniversary special, Christopher Eccleston not joing the 50th Anniversary special, the return of the Zygons and the BFI's attempts at a more fair approach to allocating tickets to their 50th Anniversary events.

New Doctor Who to review! Hoorah?? This week Phil is joined once again by Martyn Havell from the Bad Wilf Podcast to review the opening episode of series 7 part 2, The Bells of Saint John. While the pair of them are pleased Doctor Who has returned, neither of them are particuarly pleased with this story. Oh no, they are not pleased with recycled ideas and plot holes you could ride a bike through, so tune in to find out just how displeased they were!! Mind you, it wouldn't be the Who's He? Podcast if there wasn't a certain amount of negativity now would it?

And in the news this week, David Tennant and Billie Piper to return to Doctor Who for the 50th Anniversary and in an exclusive for the Who's He? Podcast we announce today of all days that Paul McGann will return for the 50th in a new idea for the show - degeneration!! Also the BBC announces they are cancelling the sequels to the Doctor Who console game The Eternity Clock.

This week, Paul & Phil review the latest in the Destiny of The Doctor audio stories, Vengeance Of The Stones featuring the 3rd Doctor. Does this story follow up on the brilliance of Shadow of Death or does it cause Phil and Paul to disagree for the first time in ages? Listen to find out but be warned: Scottish stereotypes are discussed and the word "stones" is used with wanton abandon!

And in the news this week, the air time and a prologue (I refuse to call it a prequel!) for The Bells of Saint John is revealed to waiting fans, filming for the 50th Anniversary special has been pushed back, the tabloids start their typical rumours that Matt Smith is leaving, Peter Jackson will direct an episode of Doctor Who if Steven Moffat gives him a Dalek and in Omega's Tat Corner they return to a piece of tat that they discussed a few episodes back. Blimey, that could've been explained better. Why didn't I put "previously on Omega's Tat Corner" instead? Really need to get a proof reader for this rubbish.

It's time for an audio commentary!! This month, the lads have chosen a short story for your delectation in the form of Black Orchid. During the course of this story, Phil, Paul & Tony stop to marvel at the cricketing prowess of Peter Davison and also gaze in wonder at the seemingly never ending appetite of the gluttonous Adric. And in the news this week, The Caves of Androzani is the next to be shown at the BFI Doctor Who 50 season, Caroline Skinner to leave Doctor Who, DVD updates for Inferno Special Edition and the Mind of Evil and the next in the Destiny of The Doctor series.

After a longer than usual break between episodes, Phil & Paul return with their long overdue review of the Target novelisation Doctor Who and The Cave Monsters. During the course of dissecting this book, they discuss the problem of poorly realised femaie characters, rushed endings and the dietary habits of 1970's Britain.

And in the news this week, the announcement of an official convention to celebrate the 50th Anniversary and also a recap on the news they missed out on during the last couple of weeks including the Ice Warriors makeover for series 7, and the perils of press releases giving away major plotlines.
