Drunktor Who: A Doctor Who Podcast

We watch "The Mark of the Rani", a 6th Doctor story featuring the titular Rani’s first appearance. Whilst the Rani is making her mark by draining sleep juice from the brains of 19th century miners (because... science?), the Doctor constantly berates and belittles Peri (because... reasons?), the Master shows up to either help or hinder either the Rani or the Doctor (because... ßchaos?), and John is...

Welcome to our 15th intervention where we hash out all things season 2... series 15?... perhaps series 41 if you’re being totally pedantic. In addition to those Doctor Who discussions being discussed, friend-of-the-show-Tim presents a match-the-companion-to-the-alcoholic-beverage exercise to your hosts whilst said hosts rank the 19 episodes of Ncuti’s woefully short reign from least awesome to mos...

We watch “The Reality War” (Series 15, Episode 8) where the Earth doesn’t get destroyed but resets to begin May 23rd all over again. After the reboot occurs, the Doctor gets rescued by erstwhile companion Anita, UNIT, and its assorted minions get restored to their pre-wish glory, the Rani and Mrs. Flood bring back Omega, Omega eats the Rani, Mrs. Flood f’s off, and the Doctor easily defeats Omega...

We watch “Wish World” (Series 15, Episode 7) where the Doctor and current companion Miss Belinda Chandra become... married-couple-with-a-child Mr. and Mrs. John Smith?!? Whilst we try to figure just WTF is actually going TF on, recently past companion Ruby shows up on the 'Smith's' doorstep casting doubt on their progeny, distantly past companion Mel shows up to cast doubt on broken coffee mugs, a...

We watch “The Interstellar Song Contest” (Series 15, Episode 6) where the Doctor takes increasingly-less-reluctant-companion Miss Belinda Chandra to see definitely-not-Eurovision™-in-space. Whilst they await the inevitable camp performances (that’s gay theatricality for those uniformed listeners... scoff... eye-roll), the Doctor Princess Leia’s his way through space, Belinda R2D2’s her way to the...

We watch “The Story and the Engine” (Series 15, Episode 5) where the Bel and the Doc travel to Nigeria so he can get a haircut. Whilst the Doc goes out of his way to save a couple bucks (I mean back in the day I used to drive nearly an hour to get cheap gas and smokes in the next county so I get it), the Bel wreaks havoc in the local bazar and the Bar(ber) extracts payment for service in the form...

We watch “Lucky Day” (Series 15, Episode 4) where Belinda mostly sits this one out and the Doctor shows up just enough to justify his paycheck. Whilst our leads get several (lucky them) days off, we meet Conrad. Conrad’s a podcaster (so far I like him...) who has an interest in the Doctor (so relatable...) and dates former companion Ruby (I mean what non-problematic heterosexual CIS male wouldn’t...

We watch “The Well” (Series 15, Episode 3) where the Doctor and Belinda travel to the distant future where they encounter totally non-Earthling humans who deny knowledge about totally Earthling humans. After the Who Two take an unexpected space dive with their new ‘friends’, the Doctor recalls a prior visit to planet-formerly-known-as-Midnight in glorious standard definition whilst Belinda has a ‘...

We watch “Lux” (Series 15, Episode 2) where the Doctor and Belinda travel to ‘racist’ Florida (or let’s just call it what it is: ‘Florida’) circa 1952 in order to ultimately travel to a marginally less racist 2025. Whilst said subjectively tortured travel-prep is occurring, the Doctor Scooby-Doos encounter Lux, the God of Light, Belinda Scooby-Doesn’t believe that Lux is anything other than a pesk...

We watch “The Robot Revolution” (Series 15, Episode DENISE 1) in which we meet Belinda Chandra, a IS totally normal and no way impossible nurse. Whilst IN said introduction is occurring, Belinda gets Robo-napped, the THIS Doctor recruits new companion Sasha 55, Sasha 55 EPISODE gets killed, the Doctor recruits new companion Belinda YOU , and Belinda reunites with Alan, her first kiss DAMNED . Come...

We re-watch the Series 2 penultimate and ultimate episodes. Starting with “Army of Ghosts” where the Doctor and Rose arrive back in London to do some laundry. Oh yeah! And visit with Jackie... and said ‘ghosts’... but mostly do laundry. Followed by “Doomsday” where the Who crew save the day but the Doctor loses his bestie. Whilst all this is going down, pre-Martha gets upgraded, Jackie and Pete ge...

We've re-watched the best of series 2 and now we re-watch the worst of said series. Sigh... First up “The Idiot’s Lantern” has a victim of familial abuse return to their abuser on the advice of the Who Crew. Next “Love And Monsters” is a Doctor-and-companion-lite episode which uncomfortably ends on a fellatio joke (?). We unfortunately end with “Fear Her” wherest we again revisit family abuse. For...

We continue our re-watch of the 2nd season with the two part introduction of the spaghetti-faced Ood. First up is “The Impossible Planet” where the Whosome Twosome land on the very possible space station with the aforementioned Ood giving off satanic possession vibes. Then we spelunk down to “The Satan Pit” confirming that the Devil made the Ood do it (Oodit?). Whilst all this is going down, the D...

Continuing our rewatch of Series 2 brings us the long awaited two-part return of... Pete Tyler! Also I guess the Cybermen... whatever Boomer (scoffs)... Whilst “Rise of the Cybermen” lands us in an alt-universe London where their Rose is a dog, Mickey is gay, and our Doctor reunites with his Potterverse father. “The Age of Steel” kills off alt-Jackie, Rickey (alt-Mickey), and the rising alt-Cyberm...

Next up on our NewWho re-watch are arguably the two best episodes of series two. First is “School Reunion” where current companion Rose gets a ‘chip’ on her shoulder when she and the Doctor bump into past companion Sarah Jane. Awkward... Then we travel to the 51st century where a bickering Rose and Mickey nearly get harvested for spare parts whilst the Doctor transports back to the 18th century to...

After concluding our Eccleston re-watch, we now begin our David Tennant reexamination. First up is “The Christmas Invasion” where a practically comatose Doctor saves the planet from said invasion... all whilst it’s just another day for the majority of the planet. Followed by "New Earth" where the Doctor and Rose visit New Earth (oh... clever...) 23 years after Earth original flavor blowed up real...

We watch the First Doctor’s second serial featuring their first encounter with the Daleks titled “The Daleks”. But we’re watching the 60th anniversary version which chews up seven black and white 25 minute episodes and then regurgitates out one 75 minute coulorized version that still feels like it contains lots of filler. Whilst said story is being vomited onto our eyes, the Doctor lies to his com...

We watch “Joy To The World” (Series 15, Episode 0) where the Doctor exposes their always simmering underlying dickishness to this episode’s titular companion Joy in order to save the world from certain death in the form of an immature Star Seed (takes a deep breath...). Whilst said self-discovery is occurring, the Doctor has a ‘gap year’ with shoulda-been-companion Anita, Joy is treated poorly sho...

We conclude our Series One re-watch with the Satellite 5 three episode saga... whist also not-coincidentally concluding the ninth Doctor’s saga. First up is “The Long Game” where the Doctor and Rose try to impress new companion (nope) Adam by taking him to the year 200,000 yet need to rescue them all from certain death in the form of Albino Simon Pegg. Next we jump to “Bad Wolf” where the Doctor a...

Rejoin us on our re-watch of nearly 20 year old Nu-Who! So on this podcast episode we watch two episodes which happen to be one singular story. First is "The Empty Child" where the Doctor tries to impress Rose by taking her to London during the Blitz whilst rescuing her from certain death in the form of the creepiest preschooler ever. Next is "The Doctor Dances" where the Doctor and Rose rescue a...

Whaaa? We’re rewatching the first season of the Doctor Who reboot? Serially... like you don’t know at this point? So rejoin us yet again as we re-discuss “Dalek” where the Doctor tries to impress Rose by taking Rose to a museum and rescues Rose from certain death in the form of the Doctor’s oldest enemy. Then we regather together to yammer on about "Father's Day" where the Doctor rescues Rose...

We continue our re-watch of series one with the arc featuring the Slitheen family from Raxacoricofallapatorius: “Aliens of London” where the Doctor and Rose watch an alien ship crash into the Thames and need to be rescued from certain death in the form of corpulent farting aliens, “World War Three” where they are rescued from certain death by Mickey... yes that Mickey... after discovering said far...

Join us as we begin a re-watch for the series-one-Christopher-Eccleston-starring Doctor Who reboot. This podcast episode features: “Rose” where the Doctor rescues shop girl Rose Tyler from certain death in the form of CGI plastic and it's army of killer mannequins, “The End of the World” where the Doctor tries to impress Rose by taking her to Earth five billion years in the future and rescues her...

We watch the last half of “The Five Doctors”, the 20th anniversary special that posits the eternal query: “If Tom Baker can’t be bothered to show up, is it really all that special?” As we ponder that question, the Doctor encounters (yet doesn’t recognize) his childhood bestie, the Doctor encounters phantom companions he shouldn’t know that they shouldn’t recognize him, the Doctor encounters a clum...

We watch the first two episodes of the 20th anniversary serial “The Five Doctors” in which the Doctors and their assorted companions get transmatted to the infamous Death Zone on Gallifrey... but none of them actually die? As said surviving is going down, the Doctor acts sexist, the Doctor attends the Brig’s poorly attended retirement party, the Doctor drags Sarah Jane behind Bessie, the Doctor ge...
