My #1 in our recent top Master stories ep!

A lot of fun to hear @diddlydumpodcast.bsky.social with @sukykhakh.bsky.social dive deep into the wonderful The Deadly Assassin!
I agree… the behind the scenes line up really is something of a dream team!
I watched part 1 last night, and it really is SO will made!

This was a fantastic listen.

Shove it in your ear holes!

Amazing day at Brid Comic Con meeting Hacker T Dog and Hartley Hare!

This is so very thoughtful. Having heard an advance copy of our forthcoming review of "The Deadly Assassin", Mrs Mary Whitehouse sends her kind birthday wishes to Doc.

My Rose has left me
I’m in a mood
She’s gone to Kenya
With the bloke from Allied Carpets
She wasn’t immunised
That’s a legal requirement
She’s increasingly slapdash
Since we bought that new hearth rug

Enlightenment is one of those stories where I love the premise, but not always sure about the execution in parts, so enjoyed hearing @diddlydumpodcast.bsky.social with @sukykhakh.bsky.social chat about it!
There is a lot to like, it's true!

Curses! You're quick!

For those of you wondering which story we'll be reviewing in the next podcast, as ever we'll drop a hint through the medium of...Fingerbobs.

Oooooh.

Nice to hear @diddlydumpodcast.bsky.social chat about The Savages release! It seems to have gotten very little attention about the place!
A very missing and forgotten story! And a very enjoyable podcast!

When Laurence Kraus was lecturing on this, one of his students supposedly raised his hand and asked: "Professor, did you say this is going to happen in 5 million years or 5 billion?" - "5 billion." - "Oh good. I was starting to get worried."

After a brief hiatus while S2 of #DoctorWho was playing out, an expanded GIN & TARDIS team chats about THE RIBOS OPERATION. Join @davidkitchen.bsky.social, Richard from Spacefall, and Rob & Mark from 42 to Doomsday on your podcatcher of choice or stream the ep here: thedwshow.net/2025/06/15/g...

It was lovely hearing young Doc hosting the gold run with m’colleague J.R. Southall.

How happy and full of joy he sounded all those years ago…

But Doc still had to tell him off several times for interrupting.

Fair to say I enjoyed the finale more than the guys here did, but I can see the flaws that have been pointed out. Some very good points. Ncuti has left too soon for sure. A back to basics, less story arc future would please me.....

Yes, me too.

Oh, charming! Just kick me as you pass, Mark. - Doc 😉

Really enjoying hearing Mark and Andy wax lyrical about The Story & The Engine.
