When PRIMARY SOURCES ended, earlier in 2022, a promise was made that it would come back 'from time to time' as a series of specials. Today, Rob makes good on that promise, with the PRIMARY SOURCES CHRISTMAS SPECIAL 2022.

Featuring input from Anthony Carroll (squared), Chris March, Richard Smith, Terry Hayward, Jeremy Bonwick, and Neilers C, a team of Doctor Who fans weigh in on a letter to Doctor Who Magazine #238 from May, 1996 on the topic of...

SEX!

Yes, hanky panky, coitus, relations, lovemaking... whatever you want to call it. Does it ruin Doctor Who? Fans certainly thought so with the TV movie hurtling at them back in 1996. Have our attitudes changed, or is it still a bit... icky?

Wishing you all the compliments of the season, and we'll be back in the new year to do it all again.

In the first part of a 2-part festive special, Ben and Mark are joined by J.R Southall from the Strangers in Space podcast for a Christmas argument all about The Timeless Children.

Under discussion: Doesn't the Timeless Children just return the character back to 1966? Where can kids catch up on the adventures of the George Gallacio Doctor? Will Doctor Who ever be a show with a broad appeal ever again? Does it have to be?

Also: Mark drinks a can of turkey soup, J.R teaches us the merits of staying hydrated and Ben tans the Christmas whiskies.

David and Matt kick off their Series 9 coverage this week, with a discussion of "The Magician's Apprentice". David answers some listener questions, and even gets to waffle about prog rock for a bit (at a price). There's also some work-related confessions for our confession dials and, of course, Meal of the Week.
