Tournament of Time – The Semifinals
We’re narrowing to the finalists in our competitive brackets for both the (televised) iterations of the Master, and the (non-companion) Friends of the Doctor.
Right in the Feels
This week, we go around the table and share moments from Doctor Who that hurt the most; ones that had particularly strong emotional pull and made us love the show more for the pain it caused.
Tournament of Time – Friends of the Doctor, Round 2
After narrowing the field to four, we advance in the competition of who would be the Doctor’s (and our) most valued non-companion ally.
The Husbands of River Song

Topic One is, and always will be, the centuries-old symbiosis between […]
Hide
We’ve hit the halfway point for series 7B, and it has finally taken the turn we were waiting for. We discuss the new episode penned by Neil Cross, Hide. The “right proper ghost story” finally hits our screens and we discuss the story, the implications, and the general spooky nature that it brought to us.
