• how Jason almost didn't take the editor role
• the influx of content that they now have
• working with RTD
• the recent specials
• DWMs 600th issue
• Doctor Who capturing childhood fears
• reading scripts for Ncuti's episodes
• the forthcoming episode that could be very special indeed
• regenerations and bi-generations
• polls and ranking Doctors and episodes and why that's not that great
• similarities between Doctor Who and K-Drama's
• Colin Baker and how great he is

Plus we play the Grand Serpents Asteroid game with Jason...

A new era of Doctor Who begins as Ncuti Gatwa takes control of *his* TARDIS and meets Ruby Sunday and encounters some Goblins. Whilst busting out a song as well!

Here. We. Go!

We're joined by Paul's daughter Freya as we review this first full episode of the Fifteenth Doctor's era - The Church on Ruby Road!

What did we think of this blend of Doctor Who madness, fantasy and family drama?

We're not going to answer that here, so take a listen and see if you agree with our take and find out what other fans thought of the episode as well.

We discuss, among other things...

• Was it too long before we saw The Doctor?
• Was it a bit too Hollyoaks before it got going?
• Was understanding rope a bit of old rope or a bit of fun?
• Did we bop to the Goblin Song and the Doctor and Ruby's verse?!
• Is the Fifteenth Doctor, Doctor 2.0?
• All this and Geoff asks Paul to draw him like one of his French girls (it'll make sense you when listen!)

...plus find out which celeb Freya thinks Geoff looks like...

Ho Ho Ho, it's a week away from Christmas which means it's the real most magical time of the year - Projectmas! As promised 366 days ago we're back with the same weird fake family from the last movie, except this time they're older!

Join us as we discuss the many pointless plotlines, the huge number of single dads & whether this is any better than the original.

We've also been watching the last (?) David Tennant Doctor Who special 'The Giggle', as well as the Monsterverse series Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. Lewis has also been watching some original Doctor Who episodes all the way back from 1963.

00:00 Intro & Catchup

04:15 Project News (Andrey Braugher RIP & Jonathon Majors Dropped)

We review the final David Tennant special The Giggle and discuss the trailers and clips from the upcoming Christmas special.

It is the end, but the moment has been prepared for...
Wait... is it the end?
It feels different this time!
Wow! Have we just seen a completely NEW kind of regeneration which allows one of the Doctor's incarnations to continue alongside their new one?

Geoff is torn, Paul is astonished and Freya is ... well Freya's just Freya...

In this episode we take a look at the final story of the 14th Doctor's short run - except it might not be. Who knows?

Whatever happens in the future of Doctor Who one thing is certain, which is that Ncuti Gatwa is going to be amazing and will wow a whole new generation of fans!

So in this episode of WHO CORNER TO CORNER we look at THE GIGGLE - the final story of Doctor Who's 60th Anniversary Specials.

Here's a quick rundown of what you'll hear us talking about:

• Ncuti Gatwa's trousers
• Red fingernails
• Avengers (sorry - UNIT) Tower
• Bi-regeneration
• The return of the Toymaker
• Rumours!
• Stookie Bill, the creepiest puppet in all creation
• The surprise (or not) return of Melanie Bush!
• The future of Doctor Who

And much much more as we attempt to process yet another canon-shifting entry in the Doctor Who universe - aka the Whoniverse (TM).

And if you like what we do, why not consider supporting the show by becoming one of our VIP EXPLORERS?

Who Corner to Corner: Great guests and 100% positive Doctor Who chat!

It’s getting all wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey at YLT as we celebrate a huge milestone in British culture: the 60th anniversary of the iconic Doctor Who!

In this episode, we : 

• look at the unlikely-for-the-time trio who launched Doctor Who back in 1963
• discuss the basic premise of the show
• examine its importance as a British cultural phenomenon
• reflect on the symbolism and deeper messages within the series
• consider the discourse surrounding the show and how it contributes to progressive society
• explore the show’s legacy and importance in 2023

For some, Doctor Who is a campy romp that provides an occasional escape from reality, while for others, it’s a community with which to deeply connect.  Whether you’re a dedicated Whovian for whom the show is a lifestyle, or a complete newcomer to the series, there’s something here for everyone in the time and space continuum. Join us, as we celebrate this iconic moment in British pop culture history!

Don’t forget to visit our  SHOW NOTES  for fun bonus content!  You'll find:

• photos of the BBC employees who founded the show
• images of all 15 official doctors and a few of the Doctor’s most iconic enemies (and frenemies!)
• links to several websites to help you continue your journey down the DW rabbit hole
• a bibliography to begin to build your own Doctor Who library 
• and this episode's two Who-inspired drink recipes, the Doctor No. 1 and the Banana Daiquiri! 

Bankole, Chinedu, and Priscilla have gathered for a seat-in protest but also to avoid writing their exams while discussing the series finale of Netflix's hit show, 'Sex Education'. They start with that protest and a question of whether the show may be too didactic (2:05). They then go through a character-by-character examination of the emotional series finale (16:55).

The Trailer for the upcoming 60th Anniversary Specials.
