Planet of the Dead; Adam, Mary, Ben, Kirby and Robert talk about the first ever Easter Special. We also have feedback, news and How Aged Are They. We also try and pronounce Ncuti's name correctly.

On the ninety-ninth edition of Reality Bomb, Ncuti Gatwa is the Doctor and Graeme Burk talks to Dominic G. Martin and Sage Young about what Ncuti might bring to the role and what to expect about future Doctor Who. Joy Piedmont chats with Mikey Williams about Ncuti and the experiences working on set on Sex Education. Evan Teng brings us to Victorian Yorkshire as the quirky and delightful Matt Smith era story The Crimson Horror comes to the Gallery of the Underrated. We even have late-breaking news as Kim Rogers and Max Kashevsky discuss the announcement that David Tennant and Catherine Tate are returning to Doctor Who! Plus we have another round of "F*ck that guy"!

Never let it be said that the GOMW crew neglect to address the burning questions of our age!

In Episode 76, Ariel and the other clowns zoom in close on the Season 2 William Hartnell serials The Web Planet and The Chase to investigate whether they deserve their Bad Reputation. Will we go deep into the Jungian implications of the Animus, the Cold War politics of the Zarbi, and the continuing relevance of a Joan Jett song from 1980? Tune in and find out! All this, and “The Lair of the Zarbi Supremo” too!

Is RTD2 a nostalgia trip? Some thoughts on last week's announcement of Ncuti Gatwa, today's announcement of Catherine Tate and David Tennant, and the merits of old mistakes vs. new mistakes.

BREAKING NEWS KLAXON! Everything old is new again as only a week after the introduction of Ncuti Gatwa as the new Doctor, the BBC and Russell T Davies have announced the return of David Tennant and Catherine Tate to the show in a series of specials that…could be pretty much anything, given Mr. Davies’ proclivity for mystery. What are the Three Who Rule’s take on this stunner of an update? You can probably guess from our previous rantings and/or praise, but tune in anyway! All of this is not to overshadow a corker of an interview with Who expert, actor, podcaster and Friend Of The Show Toby Hadoke, along with news of tat, annuals, Big Finish goings-on, and the Timelash! So please, if you will, Allons-y!

Delighted to welcome to the show this week, for the first time, Conrad Westmaas. We discuss the ethics of adding illustrations to your own Target book copies, the unexpected career intersection between John Abineri and WInona Ryder, and what it's like to hear Paul McGann namecheck your own character on TV. Is Planet of the Daleks a good story?

Conrad also braves a game of "Guess That Cliffhanger!", with surprising results (spoiler: sadly, no cliffhangers involving John Abineri appear this week).

In the second half of the program, Jason discusses the surprisingly extensive differences between the TV story and the slim novelization.

Jason discussed the casting of Ncuti Ghatwa on this past week's episode of the Trap One Podcast. Please check that out as well!

Just drop that seaweed in the blender and blend it right up. Yum.

Did you hear that? That noise. The one just behind you. The one that kind of sounded like a door opening. Nah, never mind, it probably wasn’t important. Probably just the wind. It’s Whispers of Terror, written by Justin Richards and released in November, 1999.

Show-notes:
0:37: Ironically, Kiyan’s specificity ended at not including the actual date of release, since it appears nobody really knows what it is.
3:45: According to the Doctor Who Podcast Alliance, the total sum of our audio output is actually 22 days.
6:18: Considering the rather blistering intro paragraph of this 2008 academic paper, it’s probably not true that indigenous Tasmanians forgot how to make fire. Unless this paper is wrong idk.
7:20: Brace yourself, I’m about to mispronounce Ncuti Gatwa‘s name.
9:00: Yeah, guess I just decided to immortalize my mistake for all eternity. Nice.
13:03: Some excerpts of the interview appear on DailyMail. Here’s the relevant part: “‘It was talent. He was the very last one, we thought we had someone and then in he came in and stole it,’ Davies said.”
35:32: Someone made a compilation of all the times Mel screamed, so you can enjoy that if you like.
36:27: Witness the atrocity known as laverbread. I’ve never tried it, so you know what, hey, it might be good.
1:05:42: It’s called Ghost in the Machine, and we’ve released an episode on it here.
52:27: Here’s what bigfinish.com looked like in 1999. Something tells me the Big Finish we know and love today weren’t the owners of the domain back then.
1:00:26: The dog in question. And on fire.
1:06:28: Here are our episodes on Ghost in the Machine and Sleep no More if you’re interested.We’ve also released an episode on Sleep No More.
1:06:32: I have no idea which story I’m talking about here. I couldn’t find it.
1:08:50: Here’s The Time Scales by the way.
1:12:20: Good news, you don’t need to navigate Twitter’s god awful interface because I’ve done it for you.
1:15:20: Listen to Zenith: A Blake’s 7 Podcast on your favourite podcast catcher.
1:20:00: Behold the rabbit hole of WeatherNewFans.
1:23:39: I had no idea how right I truly was…

After an unintentionally long gap, Ben and Mark are back to discuss two types of Whittaker Dalek stories. Jodie Whittaker's first festive special 'Resolution' and David Whittaker's 'The Evil of the Daleks'.

While building up their own hangovers, the Lash Lads tackle the first ever Doctor Who New Year's Day special, and ponder how the energy changes compared to Christmas.

And does 'The Evil of the Daleks' buckle under the weight of fan expectation? Ben and Mark attempt to find out.

ALSO: Digital dog gate! The winner of DWDICG11 is announced! Aren't Daleks sometimes a ropey as fuck?

Apologies for the slightly tinny sound on Mark's end!

The Dalek 63.88 Documentary about the American series is here. 
Toby Hadoke's Evil Of The Daleks reactions begin here.

This week, we're chatting about the unofficial companion to the Big Finish audios featuring the Eighth Doctor and Charley, C'rizz, Tamsin and Lucie, featured in the book written by Will Brooks and Nick Mellish.

We meet the pair and found out what led them to write about the audios, as they go through the episodes, one by one, on a daily basis, and find out how they look back on their work now.

If you've not read the book, it's available on the Kindle for a bargain £1.99!
