The Doctor Who Podcast #413 – The Doctor Who Podcast Film Club – Christmas Edition

It's only a week to Christmas!! Here in the DWP Campervan, we are getting into the Christmas spirit - by watching films that remind us of this wonderful time of year. However, given its impossible for us to sustain conversation about films (or indeed ANY subject) without refencing Doctor Who, James, Brent and Phil draw parallels between the films they've selected with Doctor Who stories! Can you guess the Who connection before they do?! It won't be hard....!

We'll be back on Sunday with our review of the Finale to The War Between The Land and the Sea, and then again in just a few days time ON CHRISTMAS DAY - with our own very Christmas Special! If the BBC can't provide a Doctor Who Christmas celebration, then we will! Hooray!

Enjoy the madness! :-)

Jump on board the Campervan with James, Phil, and very special guest Steven for part three of our mini-series, Talkin Bout Regeneration. Those of you familiar with the iconic Radio Free Skaro podcast will recognise Steven's silky voice and he waxes lyrical about his favourite regeneration story....nay, Doctor Who favourite story of all time! That's right after they catch up on the news that came out of the premier of the War Between the Land and the Sea that took place earlier this week.

Many thanks to Steven for joining the madness this week - we'll be back after episodes one and two of The War Between airs next Sunday.

Enjoy the show.

The guys then discuss the latest 13th Doctor and Yaz story by Lisa McMullin and Big Finish, Lionesses in Winter. Which to be clear, has nothing to do with the national English women's soccer team.

The TARDIS is "going nowhere" apparently! That's what the BBC said said week - and the irony is that's how it all began, in a junkyard, in 1963.......!

Join Phil and James as they talk about where Doctor Who is now and speculate about when we can expect it to be back on our screens. Has Disney Plus disappeared in to the sunset with their big bag of cash? Has RTD cried (Bad) Wolf once too often? Will we ever know why Billie Piper and Carole Ann Ford were actually in the last series at all?! All this and more gossip, news and feedback besides!
