We start off our year of sevens with the first story in series 7a. Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Tansy as we discuss "Asylum of the Daleks". Sure there are Daleks, but there's relationship angst, and we really dig into that, which should surprise nobody.

Have you (re)watched this story recently? Let us know what you think about it in the comments!

Happy things:

• Tansy continues her Big Finish listening with Colin Baker's The Rani Elite, which includes a new Rani!
• Kat wants the new Her Universe Thirteenth Doctor crossbody bag!
• Erika subjects her fellow Verities to one of the Doctor Who Villains and Monsters Mad Libs!
• Deb
  • loves the BBC script library!
  • loves that we have a new source of missing-episode audio in the form of the Randolph Tapes!

Here's a compilation of some of the highlights of Something Who from 2022.

We had a range of great guests to join the regular team of Richard, Paul and Giles, including Gav Rymill, Tim Burrows, Ellie (Tardis Monkey), Gary Gillatt, Toby Hadoke and Anthony Lamb. And listen to our most recent episodes for a reunion with former co-host Simon. We chatted about pirates, isolated villages, singing, impersonators and returning to previous haunts. But mostly about Doctor Who.

Peruse our back catalogue for the full versions of all of these clips and, if you enjoy them, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts or similar platform.

The opening music is Three Guitars Mood 2 and, yes, that is Richard playing the ukulele and kazoo on possibly the worst ever version of the Doctor Who theme tune at the end.

Our cover art was designed for us by Bea Garrido. She's a really talented artist, who you can find on Twitter using @BeaGarrido00, where, among other artworks, you can get hold of the prints of some remarkable paintings of characters from Doctor Who.

We go a little off the rails, well, off the schedule at least, to bring you something different. We examine the recent Radio Times article, 11 changes Doctor Who fans want when the series returns in 2020, We set the record straight and discuss the things we agree and disagree with this article.

Don’t worry, we will resume your regularly scheduled stuff next week, but we wanted to address the topic this week and give it attention it is due.

Plus, we look at some other news of the week.

And, of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!

11 changes Doctor Who fans want when the series returns in 2020

The holiday season is upon us, and we're in a giving mood! Join Deb, Erika, Liz, and Tansy as we take a page out of the Deeper Cuts holiday book and pick Doctor Who-related gifts for the world and for each other. These are mostly fanciful things that couldn't possibly happen, but they're a lot of fun nonetheless. It's clear that after 10 years podcasting together, we know what will delight our fellow Verities!

We also briefly touch on the announcement of Ncuti Gatwa's and Millie Gibson's new costumes, in which we all become sci-fi fashionistas. Do check out the video to see things up close!

What would you gift to the world as some holiday DW goodness? Drop us a tweet or let us know in the comments!

Outro Music: Sound of Silver by LCD Soundsystem

Happy 2023, everyone! This year, after 10 years of podcasting, Verity! is going to regenerate! Join Deb, Erika, Kat, Liz, Lynne, and Tansy as we all look back at the last 10 years and share some general hopes for the future! We also chat about the trailer for the Tennant-and-Tate 60th anniversary specials. Much excitement and many feels all around!

Yes, that's right, Verity! will be taking a hiatus and making some changes, so think of this ep as the speech at the end of "Survival", but with the knowledge that the show WILL come back again -- and a lot sooner than Doctor Who did in the 80s/90s!

Many many thanks for listening, whether you've been with us since 2013, picked up somewhere since then, or are joining us right now! We appreciate the community that has built itself up around us, and we're excited to regenerate into the next version of Verity! to keep bringing you thoughts and feelings about Doctor Who for a good long while to come!

In part 2 of our festive special, Ben, Mark and JR Southall return to discuss fan controversy 1970s style, by way of Robert Holmes' The Deadly Assassin. 
As a controversial moment in Doctor Who history, it's gone on to define how the show's mythology worked going forward. 
Can the same be said for The Timeless Children? Time will tell, it usually does.

Under discussion: Tories being bastards on Gallifrey and in real life, Bernard Horsfall's scabby leg, and why there's no women on Gallifrey.

Also: What's more disrespectful? The Cyber-Brig or the Crispy Master?

The Christmas/New Year Special 2022 - The Curse of the Black Spot, Adam and Kirby swashbuckle their way through our last review of 2022. We also have feedback and what we watched this week.

We have reached the end of the 12th Doctor's first season. Victoria and Ross have new insights on this veiwing of these two episodes. Missy grand scheme come to it's climax, Danny dies, Clara greaves, and the Doctor is President of Earth, oh by the way that is a terrible idea.  All these things seem new to Ross and that alone sparks some good conversation.

HAPPY NEW Year! Doctor Who's 60th anniversary year is upon us in 2023.

And to kick off the celebrations, we asked our listeners to share with us their favourite Eighth Doctor stories, on TV, audio, books, comics, etc.

This episode is dedicated to the memory of our friend Si Hodges, who kindly provided us with images to use in several season three episodes, including the Beyond the Vortex episodes, and creating us a special piece of art for The People's Temple episode. 

Happy New Year to all; we wish you a happy and healthy 2023.

My guest this week is the great Iain Martin (@broadanddeep), from oh so many great Doctor Who podcasts, including but not limited to We're All Stories in the End and All of Time and Space.

Iain proves a true challenge to the all-time "20 Questions" quiz title-holders.

While the TV version of "The Power of Kroll" doesn't win a lot of fans this week, the novelization was previously featured on Jason's Terrance Top Ten list in September 2019.

"Doctor Who and the Power of Kroll" features cover art by Andrew Skilleter.
Doctor Who Literature is now a member of the Direction Point Doctor Who podcast network.

From Amy’s imaginary friend to the Hero of Trenzalore, Matt Smith spent four years and more than a few centuries as the Doctor. So now that he’s gone, how do we think he did?

Notes and links

Thank you very much to the listeners who contributed their questions to this episode: DJ Alpha-T, Frazer Gregory and Nathan Bottomley.

Nathan claims to enjoy the idea that the Doctor is a somewhat problematic figure rather than just a traveller or a simple hero. Not everyone agrees, however. In this article in The Atlantic, Ted B Kissell complains that Matt Smith’s Doctor, is in many ways, a fairly terrible person.

As we said last week, Steven Moffat’s actual quote was that Matt Smith is like “Patrick Moore in the body of an underwear model”.

None of us seem to know anything about the ratings here, but The Day of the Doctor was apparently the highest rated drama for the year on the BBC, with 12.8 million viewers and an additional 3.2 million views on iPlayer. On BBC America, it had an audience of 2.8 million viewers, which was the highest rating ever received on the channel. (This, and more information about the special can be found on its TARDIS Fandom page.)

Nathan is on Twitter as @nathanbottomley, Todd is @ToddBeilby, and Richard is @RichardLStone. The Flight Through Entirety theme was arranged by Cameron Lam. You can follow the podcast on Twitter at @FTEpodcast.

You can find Jodie into Terror, our flashcast on the entirety of the Whittaker Era of Doctor Who, at jodieintoterror.com, at @JodieIntoTerror on Twitter, on Apple Podcasts, and wherever podcasts can be found. We’ll be back with a new flashcast on the second Russell T Davies era in November 2023.

Our James Bond commentary podcast is called Bondfinger, and you can find that at bondfinger.com, at @bondfingercast on Twitter, on Apple Podcasts, and everywhere else as well. In our most recent episode we watched a very silly film called Bullseye!, starring Roger Moore and Michael Cain.

We can also be heard on the Blakes 7 podcast Maximum Power, which is currently covering Series B of the show. In this week’s episode, Terry Nation makes a triumphant return to the show in Countdown.

And finally, there’s our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. This week, we watched an episode of the Star Trek cartoon Lower Decks called Mugato, Gumato, in which the crew of the USS Cerritos rescue some rightly unloved space animals from the Original Series who have been captured by Ferengi criminals.

You can find Jodie into Terror, our flashcast on the entirety of the Whittaker Era of Doctor Who, at jodieintoterror.com, at @JodieIntoTerror on Twitter, on Apple Podcasts, and wherever podcasts can be found. We’ll be back with a new flashcast on the second Russell T Davies era in November 2023.

Our James Bond commentary podcast is called Bondfinger, and you can find that at bondfinger.com, at @bondfingercast on Twitter, on Apple Podcasts, and everywhere else as well. In our most recent episode we watched a very silly film called Bullseye!, starring Roger Moore and Michael Cain.

We can also be heard on the Blakes 7 podcast Maximum Power, which is currently covering Series B of the show. In this week’s episode, Terry Nation makes a triumphant return to the show in Countdown.

And finally, there’s our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. This week, we watched an episode of the Star Trek cartoon Lower Decks called Mugato, Gumato, in which the crew of the USS Cerritos rescue some rightly unloved space animals from the Original Series who have been captured by Ferengi criminals.

Is there any value in fiction? Vicki doesn't think so. But as the TARDIS is invaded by a robot rabbit and Steven and Vicki become trapped outside, to what lengths must the Doctor go to find their happily ever after?
