Torchwood Rewatch: End of Days (S1E13)
When a few of our Torchwood Hub 3 team declare mutiny over their dear Captain in the Season 1 finale, sunny happy Cardiff pays the price in the form of really unpleasant overcast skies.gpr381
Classic Rewatch: City of Death
With a bottle of wine, a chicken egg, a clenched fist, and a famous painting of a nonplussed Italian noblewoman, we head to Paris for what is undoubtedly our favorite classic era story. From the ‘we can’t believe it was written this quickly’ backstory, to the snappy and smart Douglas Adams dialogue, to the over-the-top but still delightful performances, we agree that the only thing we’d want to change about it is the duration. We’d want more.
The Rumor Mill
Given a randomly drawn set of heroes, adversaries, and locations, we play a few rounds of creating off-the-cuff episode synopses that — while possibly ridiculous — have some definite ‘watchability’.
Torchwood Rewatch: Captain Jack Harkness (S1E12)
The Cardiff Rift gets uppity, courtesy of a mysterious cravat-sporting caretaker with a penchant for Polaroids and time-tinkering, taking Jack and Tosh to 1941 and a very awkward military meet-up.
Classic Rewatch: Destiny of the Daleks
With equal parts psychopathy and sarcasm, we drill into Season 17 with Terry Nation’s final story contribution to Doctor Who, and the full-time arrival of Lalla Ward as Romana.
Fire, Retire, Admire
It’s game night in the GPR studio, and we’re taking trios of Doctor Who characters to decide who stays, who goes, and who gets burned from the record.
Torchwood Rewatch: Combat (S1E11)
We step into the ring with guest Julie this week, returning at long last to our Torchwood progress to discuss Noel Clarke’s contribution to the first season. (Yes, THAT Noel Clarke.)
Classic Rewatch: The Armageddon Factor
Our good friend Drew from “Who and Company” joins us to finish assembly of the Key to Time, and wrap up the sixteenth season of Doctor Who.
Series 12 In Review
It wasn’t anything like what we expected, and even less what we predicted, but with Series 12 now behind us we reflect on the wild ten-week ride we just experienced.
The Timeless Children
Diving in with more unanswered questions than we thought was physically safe to carry, we throw caution to the wind and absorb the finale of the twelfth modern season.
