The Final Game which is an epic story 7 part story that pits the Third Doctor and Roger Delgado’s Master against each other one final time.

You can hear the first three episodes of The Final Game here:

Part One

Part Two 

Part Three

The cliffhanger to the second episode of The Final Game saw the Daleks arrive, so this podcast is all about these iconic monsters. I asked the cast and writer about the first time they encountered the Daleks on screen, their favourite Dalek stories and what they think is the enduring appeal of the Doctor’s most famous foes.

In the second part of the podcast you’ll hear the writer of The Final Game, Chris McKeon, share his thoughts on both the Daleks and the writing of the episode.

• Missy (the previous incarnation of The Master?) was last seen at the end of S10
• Part 1 was directed by Jamie Magnus Stone, Part 2 by Lee Haven Jones
• Ada Lovelace was a pioneer in computer science & Noor Khan a British WWII hero
• Big Finish should ask Nakkiah Lui to write about the Doctor in the Outback
• Google used to have a ‘don’t be evil’ clause in it’s Code of Conduct
• Unlike the classic-villain-free season which preceded it, the previous New Year’s Day special, Resolution, included a Dalek
• Day of the Doctor was the amazing culmination of the 50th Anniversary Year
• The Cartmel Master Plan was never really Cartmell’s master plan
• Kylo Ren is a Star Wars villain
• Omega & Rassillon were (two of?) the founders of Gallifrey
• There was a Classic example of ‘contact’ in The Three Doctors
• The Remnants mentioned The Timeless Child in The Ghost Monument
• The Boneless were antagonists from another dimension in Flatline
• It’s Artron Energy, not Archon Old Man
• Donna’s fate in Journey’s End was very controversial

The Doctor finds herself marooned in the past without her TARDIS as she comes face-to-face with her recently returned Best Enemy. What is the mysterious secret of the Timeless Child? What will the Doctor find when she returns to Gallifrey? Find out as we review Spyfall, Part II, the second episode of the twelfth series of Doctor Who. Plus, feedback from Apple Podcasts and Blue Box Bill along with Lee’s recent interview on the Reality Breached podcast! Hosted by Kyle Jones, Lee Shackleford, and Clarence Brown.

"Spyfall Part Two" was a strong conclusion to the opening Series 12 two-parter, but there was one creative decision I'm wary of, and another that really should have been done differently.

Rob, Dave and Richard discuss series one of The Mandalorian.

The Mandalorian is an American space Western web television series that premiered on Disney+ on November 12, 2019. Set in the Star Wars universe, the series takes place five years after the events of Return of the Jedi and 25 years prior to the events of The Force Awakens and follows the exploits of a Mandalorian bounty hunter beyond the reaches of the New Republic.

Jon Favreau serves as creator, head writer, and showrunner, as well as executive producer, alongside Dave Filoni, Kathleen Kennedy, and Colin Wilson. The show stars Pedro Pascal in the title role. There are eight episodes in the first season, and a second season has been ordered, to premiere in late 2020.

Chapter 1: The Mandalorian Chapter 2: The Child Chapter 3: The Sin Chapter 4: Sanctuary Chapter 5: The Gunslinger Chapter 6: The Prisoner Chapter 7: The Reckoning Chapter 8: Redemption

All of America is the twitspace.

I just realized how weird it is that the villain in a UK story is an American. There’s probably more to that now that I think about it, something about how America gained its independence and now the UK hates them or something. It’s Arachnids in the UK, written by Chris Chibnall and aired on October 28, 2018.

Denise (@CupofTea69), Keith (@50dw50) and Mark (@QuarkMcMalus) go undercover to investigate Spyfall Part One.

So, this admittedly might not be the episode you were expecting from me right now – though I can assure you that me chatting about my 'Spyfall' feels is coming soon! HANG IN THERE! 

But no, on this episode, instead I continue on with my journey through my 'Spark Joy' series – perhaps for the last time for quite a while? -- with a story I love muchly: 'The Girl in the Fireplace'!  

Inside, you'll hear me going on and on for AGES (LONGEST. EPISODE. EVER?) -- all just full of squee and passion (I JUST LOVE THIS STORY, OK?!), with a side of (bleeped) cussing, some meta thoughts about things like polyamory and the nature of the Doctor/Companion relationship, tons and tons of frothing shippiness, and, admittedly, some not-so-nice feels about Rose Tyler thrown in here and there for good measure (sorry in advance!). 

So, anyway, hold onto your hats, everyone, and enjoy the ride! I'm so glad to have you all aboard – yet again! -- on this Love Train! #choochoo
