We just flat out refuse to give up on the 50th anniversary. This week, we take a look at both the emotionally driven docu-drama “An Adventure in Space and Time”, and the hilarious ‘insider’ mock-umentary by Peter Davison, “The Five(ish) Doctors”. Yes, we’re slightly bipolar this week…you’ll just have to deal with it.

The first production allows us to delve deeper into the first Doctor’s history than we ever have, question how much is historically accurate, and furthermore, determine if that accuracy really matters. Shifting as madly as the crew of Top Gear on the expressway, we then set off on a wild goose chase with the 5th, 6th, and 7th Doctors (with a TARDIS-load of cameos) and allow our our classic Whovian to be sated — and ponder how involved they really were in the 50th Anniversary episode (wink, wink).

VWOORP! VWOORP! We also have some very special announcements at the end of the show:

• Check our Facebook page and our Twitter stream this weekend for exclusive promo codes for the (admittedly addictive) smartphone game, Doctor Who: Legacy.
• GPR will be participating in next year’s geek-gathering event, Geekation 2014. Head over to their website, contribute to the poll regarding the event date, and get ready to get your geek on, Vegas style!
