Episodes
-
Jack & Joe & Si Hart join forces to critique one of Doctor Who’s absolute diamonds. Brilliant monsters, stunning ideas, great characters, excellent humour and a narrative that confounds and delights.
-
Jack & Joe face deadly time eaters, giant spiders, evil renegade Time Lords seducing buxom Atlanteans and Trump-esque nasties in their efforts to convince you that these stories are underrated. So much fun to be had discussing these insane stories.

-
Joe & Jack; you shall die… What is it that Jack wants from drama? What is the most mischievous box set the BBC has released? Can Jack play everybody in this story? Why is this plot so wonderfully clever and devious?
-
Joe & Jack; tearing our pants. How much do we love this? Shoddy production values, awesomely camp performances, huge gags, actors trying to make each other corpse, and energy in the writing, of not the direction. ‘No Lord Nimon! I brought you the tributes!’
-
Join Jack & Joe as they head to Skonnos, face insane fashion designs, huge performances, irresistible Dudley music, cheapness, rattly sets, and the Nimon prepare to watch and talk about…themselves!
-
Roll up! Roll up! Jack and Joe are joined by music maestro Paddy Haesler, composer of the podcast theme tune, to discuss his favourite Doctor Who serial: The Greatest Show in the Galaxy! Is this the best score in Doctor Who? Is this the Doctor and Ace at the height of their powers? And what does the new series owe to this mercurial era of the show?
-
Join Jack & Joe as the reach the tail end of series seven - a controversial year for the pair of them! Are any of these episodes any good? Was the show in crisis? Does inspiration peek through the cracks?
-
Right then, Clara Oswald: time to find out what that was all about. Missed a series arc, you say? Missed complicated time travel shenanigans, you say? In the first of a two part discussion, Jack and Joe take a deep dive into Series 7B, famously the least contentious series of Doctor Who ever put to screen. Tune in as they rattle their way through The Bells of Saint John to Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS! What could there possibly be to disagree about?
-
Join Jack & Joe as they embark on a farewell tour for Amy & Rory. Joe hates them and the era and pretty much everything that Moffat touches and Jack pretty much holds the era up as his favourite…so we all know how this is going to go down. Right…?
-
Join Jack & Joe; bearing witness to the next stage of Dalek evolution! An ambitious failure? Overstuffed? Terrific characters? Great set pieces? Interesting ideas going nowhere? Jack putting the devil in Joe? You might think we’ll hate this…and you might just be surprised.
-
With Jack away on yet another thespian adventure, it falls upon necessity to be the mother of invention (if nothing else, a consistent release schedule). So join Jack and Joe as they both take their own respective solo trips to the planet Zanak, with Joe providing commentary for Parts 1 and 4, and Jack rambling his way through parts 2 and 4. The Nimon apart, but together!
-
Join Jack & Joe & Jason; contentious love! Jack has watched Arc of Infinity, Mawdryn Undead & The Five Doctors. Joe has watched Snakedance, Terminus, Enlightenment & The Kings’ Demons. Jason has come to convince us this is a great season. Let fireworks commence!
-
Jack & Joe; taken out of time and space! Tegan’s introduction and why it’s wonderful…and awful! Adric’s best story? All tone and no structure? Huge, attention grabbing ideas and high stakes…in a funereal wake of a story. Logopolis thrills us, and baffles us!
-
Join Jack & Joe as they dodge spooks, flirt madly, dance, get possessed, and unveil huge arc plots! We’re hugely enamoured with this, for once on the same page, and discuss the many merits of an episode that reveals just how good this era can be when it gets everything right.
-
Join Jack & Joe as they return for series four (to Doomsday). Crass characterisation, unconvincing dialogue, confusing plot details, exposition aplenty…it can only be Four to Doomsday! Can the Nimon tackle their greatest challenge to date and find anything nice to say about this story?
-
Join Jack & Joe as they finally give in to popular demand (of just Roger’s demands) and review The Long Game. Plus a fabulous bonus feature, and special features, and excitement of episodes to come. Huge love to the ultra talented Mark Rawlins (of Two Watch Who fame) for his glorious efforts in our Dimensional Feature.
-
Join Jack and Joe as they burn up as star just to visit Rose Tyler on Bad Wolf Bay. Is she Doctor Who's most authentic representation of a real person? Does her arc in Series 2 come at the expense of the goodwill she's earned the year before? And how important is a companion's family to their time on the TARDIS?
-
Join Jack & Joe as they head back to school! After a slightly self congratulatory 10 minutes, we get down to the real emotional nitty gritty of this powerful episode. Much love for the return of an old favourite, discussion of the excellent monsters, a terrific use of K.9 and the new Doctor already at his best. Featuring the K.9 and Company theme as sang by David Brierley.
