Back in March 2023 we discussed the Jodie Whittaker era of Doctor Who by selecting some episodes to revisit for the first time since broadcast.

That concept proved so popular - it's legitimately one of our most downloaded episodes ever - we're doing the same tonight for the Ncuti Gatwa era.

A year after the dust settled on Season 2 of Ncuti's era - and now, as we know, the RTD2 era as a whole - we watch some episodes and talk about two seasons of the show that have divided fandom ever since they first dropped, and probably always will.

What do we make of the stories on re-watch and, in turn, the Gatwa era in general?

Tune in, find out.

After the chat we also have a TON of listener feedback. Folks, it's been... a month.

In our May episode we were discussing the possibility of the 2026 Doctor Who Christmas Special being cancelled. Madness, people said, it can't be cancelled. That's crazy!

1.5 weeks later, on June 10, it was confirmed that the BBC had cancelled the special and Russell T Davies had announced his exit as showrunner and, by association, Bad Wolf as its production company. A lot happened that week, dear listener, as you may remember.

Tonight, what began as the news segment for the June episode takes on a life of its own. Rather than put out a 2-hour-plus episode of the show, with a 40-minute-plus news segment, we've taken that news segment and our short topics and created this episode from it.

Tomorrow, we will drop the Ultimate Ncuti Gatwa Cold Take discussion that was intended as the main topic of the episode, along with a month's worth of listener feedback.

So you're still getting over 2 hours of Doctor Who Show this weekend - just broken up into two pieces over two days. Let us know what you think of this experiment - and the shows!

Back in the ninth installment of Gin & TARDIS, the boys looked at a random assortment of orphaned Patrick Troughton episodes. That went down so well with listeners that tonight, Dave from the Doctor Who Show, Mark & Rob from 42 to Doomsday, and Richard from Spacefall: A Blakes 7 Podcast, are watching a grab bag of four unrelated William Hartnell episodes from the ‘Lost in Time’ DVD release. The episodes:

The Crusade - Episode 3 Galaxy 4 - Episode 3 The Daleks Master Plan - Episode 10 The Celestial Toymaker - Episode 4

And yes, there’s a musical number at the end 😉

This episode of Alternate Galaxies takes an impromptu, totally unplanned detour into the new Masters of the Universe film after the guys realised they'd both caught the film not long after opening day and it made for a perfect podcast topic.

Join them as they look at one of the most discussed genre films of recent times.

In today’s episode we look at the 2008 TV story, The Sontaran Stratagem / The Poison Sky.

Fifty-two people across the world in eleven different time zones die at the exact same time. The only connection: they all have ATMOS installed in their vehicles. Martha Jones, now a UNIT doctor, summons the Tenth Doctor back to modern-day Earth to help figure out why, but an old enemy lies in wait...

Before that, we kick things off with the usual mix of news and short topics. Then, after the TV episodes chat, we open the mailbag for a ton of feedback from our listeners on a number of topics.

And also stick around after the show ends, if you're so inclined, for a short discussion of the final episode/final season of THE BOYS, as well as commentary about the show over the years.

Enjoy, dear listener.

Join Dave from the Doctor Who Show, Rob and Mark from 42 to Doomsday, and Richard from Spacefall: A Blakes 7 Podcast, after knocking back a few gin and tonics at Dave’s place and watching 1996's Doctor Who: The Movie.

This podcast goes out two days short of the movie's 30th anniversary.

Developed as a co-production between Universal Studios and BBC Worldwide, it premiered on 12 May 1996 on the Canadian television station CITV in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, 15 days before its first showing in the United Kingdom on BBC One and two days before being broadcast in the United States on Fox.

The movie follows the Seventh Doctor, played by Sylvester McCoy, who is shot shortly after arriving in 1999 San Francisco while transporting the remains of his old enemy, The Master. He regenerates into the Eighth Doctor, played by Paul McGann, and teams up with surgeon Grace Holloway to stop the Master from stealing the Doctor’s remaining lives by opening the Eye of Harmony inside the TARDIS.
