Classic Rewatch: Attack of the Cybermen
Mondas is back in mind, and ne’er-do-well Lytton is back in the mix, as Six and Peri try to protect Earth from the Cyber Controller’s plan.
Classic Rewatch: Earthshock
We spelunk caverns and then explore the corridors of a 26th century freighter in this 1982 nail-biter that sees the return of a certain silver menace.
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.
Ascension of the Cybermen
Bracing ourselves for a tumbling, screeching, the-brakes-are-out ride into the final story arc of the season, we’re given even more questions to add to the existing pile, with little time left for answers.

World Enough and Time
This week, we release the grip on our seats long enough to reflect on the penultimate episode of Series 10, and the first of an unofficial trilogy leading up to the end of Moffat’s and Capaldi’s tenure.
Classic Rewatch: Tomb of the Cybermen
There are Doctor Who stories that you keep on a short list of those to recommend to the uninitiated or under-exposed, in hopes of winning them over to the fandom. Often these stories have a solid amount of explanation for newcomers, a solid plot and conflict to hold interest, and a degree of plausibility that will keep skeptics and critics at bay. There are also those installments of DW that are one’s personal favourites, for a myriad of reasons, that may […]
Classic Rewatch: The Tenth Planet
Closing the Hartnell chapter on our classic Doctor Who rewatch, we end on “The Tenth Planet”, the Cyberman origin story, and a wholly entertaining story from the legendary Kit Pedler.
