We call it sky surfing here.

When I heard the name of this episode I kind of imagined it as an almost Kobayashi Maru situation. You know in Star Trek, it’s the no win situation that Kirk cheats at to win, and that cheating is the reason he gets given the captain’s chair because they really like his initiative in… cheating… I guess? But then it turned out to not be that at all. It’s The Tsuranga Conundrum, written by Chris Chibnall and aired on November 4, 2018.

In which we have theories. THEORIES!

On this week's show, Danica and Brandon are talking about SPYFALL PART TWO and wouldn't you know it? They liked it. And may or may not have found some bits and bobs that remind us of the modern internet. Say, did you hear that Nazis are back? You'd think the world would have learned the first time, but NOPE.

Outro music (we HAVE it this time!) is Skyfall by Adele

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
