Worthwhile: The Curse of the Black Spot
Applying our typical “silver linings” perspective as we do to nearly all Doctor Who content, we begin a positive look at maligned post-2005 episodes with a hapless crew becalmed at sea.
Classic Rewatch: The Power of Kroll
Skewering the fifth segment of the Key to Time on a lance like seafood on a kebab, the Doctor and Romana find some very familiar struggles for power on a swamp moon.
Torchwood Rewatch: Random Shoes (S1E9)
Gwen embroils herself in a ghost story where the spirit is the one haunted by the living, and the rest of the team effectively takes a week off.
Giving Thanks for a Series 12 Trailer
The official “Doctor Who Day” of 2019 brought us something we’ve been hoping to see on our holiday table for months, now: an action-packed trailer for the new series complete with guest appearances, adversaries old and new, famous historical figures, car chases, and plenty of explosions.
Classic Rewatch: The Androids of Tara
Pointing a few hands’ worth of fingers at various impostors (both organic and cybernetic), the Doctor and Romana get waylaid by a problematic regency dispute while making off with the fourth piece of the Key to Time.
Oh Come On, You Can Tell Us
When official word on the progress, production, or even pulse of Series 12 development is far and few between, even the most devoted fans start wondering what’s going on behind the curtain.
Torchwood Rewatch: They Keep Killing Suzie (S1E8)
Sporting a “risen mitten” and a “life knife”, the Torchwood team revives a traitor from their past to do…well, exactly what you’d expect a traitor to do: betray.
Classic Rewatch: The Stones of Blood
The Fourth Doctor and Romana get far more than they bargained for in the pursuit of the third segment of the Key to Time: namely, a court-ordered execution.
Two Whos and a Lie: The Rumor Mill
In a new adaptation of our bluffing-based “Two Whos and a Lie” game, we try and stump one another by hiding a complete falsehood among a trio of Doctor Who rumors past and present. It proves a lot more challenging that we expected to suss out the culprit.
Torchwood Rewatch: Greeks Bearing Gifts (S1E7)
When writer Toby Whithouse gives us a story that finally centers around Tosh, we should know better than to expect a ‘very special episode’ where things turn out lovely.
