The world is going through a tough time right now with many of us hunkering down to try to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus (friends, by doing nothing we are doing our part). So we at Radio Free Skaro hope to try to entertain and educate you over the coming weeks as we usually do, and this week, Graeme Burk and Robert Smith? drop by to talk about their new book, Who Is The Doctor 2, the follow-up to the successful first volume of this unofficial Doctor Who episode guide! Stay safe, everyone.

The Timeless Wait has begin, but the Three Who Rule won’t let a little thing like a long monotonous stretch of time until new Doctor Who stop them from babbling about their favorite television show! Not when there’s stats, retrospectives, a ridiculous amount of tat and, most importantly of all, in celebration of International Women’s Day, an interview with Louise Jameson, writer and producer of ATA Girl 2, out today from Big Finish!

The time has come for “The Timeless Children” being timeless! Will Doctor Who canon and continuity survive? Can the Doctor and the Master ever make nice? What will become of the Time Fam? Most importantly, what was the opinion of your humble servant podcasters on this, the finale of Series 12? You will obey…by listening! Also stats, tat, Target books and t-shirts. And no new Doctor Who until the holiday season!

It is the Time of Descent for the Three Who Rule as they have just returned from Gallifrey One and are still in the thrall of the post-con blues, but for the Cybermen (and indeed one television programme called Doctor Who) it is the Time To Ascend…to something or other, as determined next week. In the meantime, here’s a review of “Ascension of the Cybermen”, the first part of the two-part Series 12 finale! Also, we catch up on our Stats segment after skipping it last week, Torchwood returns to the iPlayer, Big Finish explores more nooks and crannies of the Whoniverse, and you can Build-A-Bear yourself a Doctor!

What a weekend! Not only did the Three Who Rule attend Gallifrey One and had a wonderful time (as you will hear in this podcast), but they had a new episode of Doctor Who to watch in the form of “The Haunting of Villa Diodati”, a scary haunted house story beautifully filmed and impeccably acted! Also, Steven recounts his experiences interviewing Christopher Eccleston on the main stage at Gallifrey One!

Immortal beings (who are expressly not the Eternals, Guardians, or Toymakers), evil, nightmares, mental health, and giant hands are just some (alright, most) of the topics tackled in this week’s Doctor Who episode, “Can You Hear Me?”, and the Three Who Rule have opinions and conjecture to bandy about for days in an episode that provoked a lot more discussion than we thought we would. And it’s our first episode of several this week as our Gallifrey One Preview Episode follows on Tuesday! It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

Birds, globetrotting, and hapless travel vloggers are all part of the mix in “Praxeus,” the latest adventure in Series 12 of Doctor Who as the Doc & Co race against time, disease, environmental catastrophe, and general crankiness to save the world! What did the Three Who Rule think of this planetary runaround? You know the drill. And you also know this is the place for news of tat, Big Finish tat, even more tat, and s…tats. Ahhhhhh-aahhhhhh! Stats!
