Worth Watching

We come to the end of this epic story, and we've got some interesting (and different from each other!) reactions to how it goes.

Do the Daleks have a brilliant master plan when it comes down to it? Does Mavic Chen need therapy? Is a character a companion if they're only in one story?

So many things answered in this episode!

This week includes one of the weirdest Doctor Who episodes of all time -- including a cameo by Charlie Chaplin and a very British Christmas!

And the return of a favorite villain we really weren't expecting.

Plus some praise and b******g about reconstructions...this one has it all!

Our first real Doctor Who reconstruction!

Doctor Who does the Trojan Horse. We both really enjoyed this story: Well-written, clever and funny.

You don't need to hunt down reconstructions in shady corners of the internet, we've done it for you, and you can experience the story along with some bad jokes and witty observations.

After going through the story proper, we do a deep dive into the mythology and how the writers played with it. Given it a listen, you'll learn something!

This is a one-episode story that doesn't have the Doctor or the crew in it, and which is a missing story. So a couple of years ago the University of Central Lancashire's film department did a recreation, using the same methods as were done back in the day.

This is also a prequel to an upcoming 12-episode epic story, so required viewing for any classic Doctor Who fan.

What did we think of the story and the recreation? Only one way to find out!

Finally we get back to our core mission, watching ancient Doctor Who stories!

This is an animated reconstruction of a completely missing story, and there are many non-animated missing stories coming up, which results in us debating whether we should start watching photo-based reconstructions, even though Ron has sworn he never will. As it turns out this was the start of a discussion that has some surprising twists that will be revealed over time...

Meanwhile, check out this 60+ year old story that predicted Maga and gender issues in our current times!

And so our season of Rage comes to an end with the one movie where the characters actually rage against an actual machine!
