28. "The Red Monstrosity" (The Runaway Bride) 16.05.2023 55:05

The Doctor has lost Rose, but no time to mourn her properly as a loudmouthed bride late for her wedding inexplicably appears in the TARDIS! While we're classing The Runaway Bride as part of Series 3, we're covering it now as it follows on directly from the end of Doomsday. There'll be no episode next week while we take a short inter-series break, but we'll be back soon to look at some spinoffs! In...

27. "Sassy Cult" (Doomsday) 12.05.2023 56:51

Rose's journey with the Doctor is at an end... and so is Series Two. We discuss the iconic, culturally-defining episode of television that is Doomsday.

We finally got around to this extremely divisive episode among fans... But unusually, Ben and I were in full agreement on this episode! Did we love it, or do we think it's a monstrosity? At risk of sounding like a Buzzfeed article - the answer may surprise you!

23. "Corrupted by Satan" (The Satan Pit) 21.04.2023 30:26
