Into The Time Vortex - A Doctor Who Fan Podcast

We take a break from reviewing stories and discuss our views on the casting of the first female Doctor in the series. Jodie Whittaker was announced as the Doctor on July 16, 2017 and on the heels of that announcement we share our opinion on the idea of a female Doctor along with what we know about the actress and perhaps what the new producer, Chris Chibnall, can bring to the series. This episode...

Our 50th Episode features one of the most praised Doctor Who stories. Blink doesn't even have much of the Doctor in it. Instead Sally Sparrow investigates a new terror, The Weeping Angels.
