Who's He? Podcast

New Doctor Who to review!  Hoorah??  This week Phil is joined once again by Martyn Havell from the Bad Wilf Podcast to review the opening episode of series 7 part 2, The Bells of Saint John.  While the pair of them are pleased Doctor Who has returned, neither of them are particuarly pleased with this story.  Oh no, they are not pleased with recycled ideas and plot holes you could ride a bike throu...

This week, Paul & Phil review the latest in the Destiny of The Doctor audio stories, Vengeance Of The Stones featuring the 3rd Doctor.  Does this story follow up on the brilliance of Shadow of Death or does it cause Phil and Paul to disagree for the first time in ages?  Listen to find out but be warned: Scottish stereotypes are discussed and the word "stones" is used with wanton abandon! And in th...

It's time for an audio commentary!!  This month, the lads have chosen a short story for your delectation in the form of Black Orchid.  During the course of this story, Phil, Paul & Tony stop to marvel at the cricketing prowess of Peter Davison and also gaze in wonder at the seemingly never ending appetite of the gluttonous Adric.   And in the news this week, The Caves of Androzani is the next to b...

After a longer than usual break between episodes, Phil & Paul return with their long overdue review of the Target novelisation Doctor Who and The Cave Monsters.  During the course of dissecting this book, they discuss the problem of poorly realised femaie characters, rushed endings and the dietary habits of 1970's Britain. And in the news this week, the announcement of an official convention to ce...

This week Phil and Paul continue with their retrospective of series 3 with a look back at Gridlock.  What will they make of this story after all this time and do they think it's a rollicking good adventure or a big disappointment?  In making their minds up, they get into a bit of a disagreement over Martha Jones character and Paul spoils an otherwise lighthearted piece of banter concerning corpse...

They're back!!  After disappearing from the airwaves while Phil became a Father, Phil & Paul return with a look at the lates of the Destiny of The Doctor audio stories Shadow of Death.  Would they think this was an improvement on the last Destiny of The Doctor story or would it be another disappointment in this 50th Anniversary series?  Mind you, they're only doing this as they're not at Gallifrey...

This week, Phil, Paul & Tony continue with their audio commentary for Destiny of The Daleks episodes 3 & 4.  They apologise profusely as Tony's facts get more laboured, the story gets worse and the three of them lose the will to live.  They manage to get out alive though before the listeners at their door with flaming torches and pitch forks. And in the news this week, Phil & Paul are joined by a...

It's the first audio commentary of the year, so that means once again Tony returns to the fold to join Phil & Paul in getting through Destiny of The Daleks episodes 1 & 2.  This one is real struggle folks!  The lads do their best to keep their spirits up in this shoddy run down Daleks, Stevie Wonder disco wigs and ill fitting Davros masks but try as they might, this one gets the better of them!  T...

In this weeks show, Phil & Paul have been listening on their transistor radios to The Hunters of Earth, the first of the Destiny of The Doctor series from Big Finish & AudioGo celebrating the Doctors 50th anniversary.  Listen on your own transistor radios to find out what they thought and whether it was Pauls turn to let rip after listening on his transistor radio.  This also feature gratuitous us...

It's a return to our series 3 retrospective with a look at The Shakespeare Code.  However, this week there is a change in the presenting line up as Phil is joined by the excellent Martyn Havell from the Bad Wilf Podcast who makes a long overdue return to the show.  So how does this historical story hold up after all this time?  Is it more Kenneth Brannagh's Hamlet or more Jet Li's Romeo Must Die?...

At last, new Doctor Who to watch!!  Yes, Phil and Paul size up this years festive Doctor Who offering, The Snowmen.  Is this the best Christmas special ever?  Well, there is plenty for the lads to discuss: a new companion, a new TARDIS, a new theme tune and new opening titles!!  What more could you ask for from Father Christmas otherwise known as Steven Moffat?  A good story that's what!!  So list...

It's the turn of Doctor Who from Christmas past as Phil and Paul take a look at the 2008 Christmas special The Next Doctor.  During the course of dissecting this story of Cybermen and mistaken identity, you will hear things that have nothing to do with the episode in hand, like Tom Petty, Roy Orbison, The Travelling Wilburys, The Crying Boy, The Blue Boy and Labradoodles.  Now what other podcast b...

This week Phil and Paul return to Doctor Who in its audio format with a look at Big Finish Productions story Project: Twilight, a story of South East London gangsters (shut it you slags!) and vampires.  Find out whether this story holds up for them or does it have no bite? (I am so sorry for that bad play on words.  I shall ruminate on my behaviour and it will not happen again.  Thank you.) And in...

In this weeks edition of the Who's He? Podcast, Paul and Phil turn their attention to the Target novelisation of The Tenth Planet.  Unfortunately after a few weeks of the lads being reasonably happy, they return to form as they do not like this book.  Not one bit.  So much so, Paul forgets how to count and throws his A Level Maths certificate on the fire and Phil goes down a dead end in the conver...

At the second time of asking, Phil and Paul are giving it another go with Smith and Jones, the series 3 opener.  This time they are a bit more with it but get easily sidetracked along the way with a discussion on the Doctor kissing his companions - does it still shock or is it old hat now?  Phil also manages to get in an impression of Terry Scott and during the recording Paul is visited by the gho...

After leaving you all on a cliff hanger last week, it's the return of Phil, Paul and Tony with part 2 of their audio commentary for Dalek Invasion of Earth!!  What's in store for you all this week?  Well folks, it's the same as last week, awful puns, Tony's facts and long bouts of silence.  However, this is all interspersed with a long ramble about Toffo's, recounting who's still alive from Are Yo...

After a no show with the podcast last week, episode 84 finally gets made but not what was advertised in the previous episode.  Oh no, they've gone and done an audio commentary instead and this month it's Dalek Invasion of Earth episodes 1 to 3.  During the commentary hear, feel and hit Tony as he makes Phil deploy the dreaded swear beep for the second time in the podcasts history!  Thrill as Paul...

This weeks podcast starts off strangely.....there's no Paul!!  Yes Phil is left to his own devices to begin with as he goes through this weeks news items which include casting news for series 7b, the Live+7 viewing figures for series 7a a BFI screening of a lost Doctor Who episode and a brief sojourn to Omegas Tat Corner. But when Paul finally shows up, they get stuck into another audio story, The...

After recording this particular episode months ago, they've decided to unleash it upon an unsuspecting public.  So stand back and prepare yourselves for the first in an occasional series of Target book reviews, starting with The Pyramids of Mars by Terrance Dicks.  However, comparisions are purposely made between the book and the transmitted version.  How do Phil and Paul think they compare?  Tune...

After a couple of months, an audio commentary makes a welcome return to the Who's He? Podcast and they've selected The Twin Dilemma.  What's wrong with them?!!  During the course of the commentary they try to keep their spirits up by comparing the titular twins to Phil Collins and Mestor to Don Estelle with a little bit of Al Jolson thrown in for good measure.  But this one isn't pretty folks, oh...

Well it's the end of Doctor Who until Christmas, so what to do?  It's a mid series review that's what!  And to help Phil and Paul discuss series 7 so far, friend to the show Stephen Prescott from A Mad Man With A Box Podast makes a welcome return to the show.  They have a great time discussing what they liked and disliked in this first half of series 7 and they lament that the recently released "P...

After a two week break the podcast that no-one listens to makes its triumphant return with a review of The Angels Take Manhattan.  What will Paul and Phil make of the Ponds departure from Doctor Who?  Do they think series 7a finished with a bang or a whimper?  Is Phil still a miserable old sod or has he cheered up over the last 14 days? (NO!)  Will Paul try to temper Phil's wild conspiracy theorie...

Gulp!  We're nearly out of new Doctor Who to watch and debate over!  So sit back and listen with a big hot mug of steaming whatever and see what Paul and Phil thought of The Power of Three!  Does Phil actually enjoy an episode or does he still say "meh!"?  Will Paul ever shake off the "little Ern" tag?  Will their ratings systems collapse in on itself?  Besides that, Phil manages to insult Profess...

Yes, welcome to the audio equivalent of valium!  This week Phil & Paul turn their attentions to A Town Called Mercy, the latest episode in this run of Doctor Who.  After a couple of weeks of not agreeing with each other, will this week be any different?  However be assured that during this weeks podcast references will be made to Red Dwarf, Star Wars, The Terminator, Firefly, West World and erm......

Dinosaurs On A Spaceship, the one that the Who's He? Podcast team have been waiting for with some trepidation!  Yes, it's the first of Chris Chibnall's stories for Series 7 and what do they think?  Will the wind of change blow through this podcast or will they follow suit and give this a negative review?  Listen to see if there any surprises! Also, in the news this week the audience figures for As...
