Episode 152 – Sweet Dream of Eden Oct 25, 2017

Show notes

It's time once again for something we love! Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Tansy as we discuss a story Erika loves, "Nightmare of Eden". From sets to costumes to performances to ideas, this colourful procedural pushes many of Erika's happy-buttons. Are you a fan of this story? If so, why? If not, why not? Let us know in the comments! ^E Also covered:

Tansy is watching Spaced with her kids!
Kat is excited for the Dr. Fifth Mr. Men book that's coming next year!

Deb discovers Doctor Who Hamilton Crack!

Episode 151 - We Don't Want Him to Go Oct 18, 2017

Show notes

It's time to slow down and get a bit reflective. Inspired by Peter Capaldi's "farewell tour" at New York Comic Con, Deb, Lynne, and Tansy take a thoughtful look back at Peter Capaldi's tenure. We discuss the impact he's had on the show, his legacy and examine his character arc as the 12th Doctor. Sure, we know he has one more story before the serious postmortem's begin, but we'd rather do this while we can still smile!

What do you think Peter has brought to the role and, more importantly, what do you think his imprint will be on the show? Leave us a comment and let us know what you think!

Also covered:

Lynne added Downtime by Dylan Reese to her Doctor Who Library AND a delightful Rory Funko to her AF collection.
Tansy is (justifiably!) excited about her podcasts Frankentastic and Sheep Might Fly.
Deb was so delighted by Peter Capaldi at New York Comic Con she made it this week's topic!

Show notes

It's another game this week! A new one! This time we delve into the (entirely fictional) bowels of BBC history and learn the almost-could-have-been titles for some well-known Doctor Who stories. Hope you find this as delightful as we did!
