It’s a bittersweet podcast today as we wrap up what has been a fantastic weekend at Gallifrey One, our home away from home. But it’s even more sad as it’s been announced that Gallifrey One will end its unprecedented run of conventions in 2028. It will take a while for the Three Who Rule to process this (probably more than the three years the convention has left), but fun is still had with Doctor Who writer Andrew Smith joining the Three for a recap of the convention, Big Finish secrets, and naturally, talk of The Sandbaggers.

It’s Gallifrey One, it’s the start of a mammoth weekend for Doctor Who fans, and it is a milestone for the Three Who Rule – their ONE THOUSANDTH episode!

The Swarm (but not the COVID kind) has befallen a husky-voiced Steven this week and yet in spite of that (or because of it?) he made an appearance on Edmonton radio, one 880 CHED, and explained to local norms both the exciting world of Doctor Who and the mysterious practice of Radio Free Skaro-ing, which you can listen to on this very episode! Plus we have even more Gallifrey One news, an interesting and free TARDIS diary for UK folk, and Episode Two of our exciting and very focused Classic Series Commentary on “The Moonbase”!
