Happy Sunday! Premiering on YouTube (both episodes will appear on our audio feed later this month) it's the second half of our conversation choosing the Doctor Who stories we think would have been appropriate to tell in Peter Cushing-style children's movies; into the 1980s! youtu.be/YVIdXlWIHTg

A bit later than planned thanks to technical issues, here's our review of what happens when North America decides it's going to decide what goes on in Latin American... It's Oliver Stone's political thriller based on a true story, Salvador jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/salvador-1...

Given that December brought us the rumour RTD's final episode would be called The Last Doctor, and this month has it as The Lost Doctor, I'm predicting a Valentine's Day suggestion of The Lust Doctor, a more fannish March rumour The List Doctor, before finally RTD reveals it to be The Lest Doctor

Some further thoughts - undiluted by the passage of water under the bridge - on the Doctor Who spin-off that brings the Disney deal to a conclusion, The War Between the Land and the Sea jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/the-war-is...

I see Donald Trump has announced himself as Man Utd's interim manager

The War Between the Land and the Sea might have finished over a fortnight ago, but that doesn't mean we're not still talking about it... youtu.be/CATV-k-Cvp8

Now that the consolidated viewing figures are in for the final instalment of The War Between the Land and the Sea, here's a handy guide to the overnights, the 7-days, the charts and the overall average - plus a useful comparison with the consolidated 7-day figures for the two Ncuti Gatwa seasons:

Back to the normal number of weekly episodes from today, starting with a comparison between the two movie adaptations of Stephen King's book The Running Man, including the recent production by Edgar Wright: jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/the-runnin...

Happy New Year! An audio and a video to launch 2026... On our podcast feed, we ask why we came to like Doctor Who in the first place: jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/who-do-you... And on YouTube, we wonder what stories Peter Cushing's Doctor Who could have subsequently starred in: youtu.be/ZmFPz6YzuVA

Just the Sophie Aldred bits from last night's Celebrity Mastermind youtu.be/hZfRicpKJOs

On Friday we'll be discussing our first Blakes 7 story since introducing the series into the Who Review Extra randomiser, but tomorrow morning it'll be a New Year double whammy with an audio episode in which we work out what we love about Doctor Who, and a video premier expanding the movie Doctor...

In 1984 you couldn't move for Frankie Goes to Hollywood, occasionally on the radio (albeit not so much on the BBC, until overcompensation kicked in) but mostly on people's torsos. We take a look back at an unlikely phenomenon. jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/music-club...

There's a new A Ghost Story for Christmas on the iPlayer so of course we had to take a look: jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/tv-club-88...

Two films from 1995 that helped drag cinema into the 21st century, but do Seven and 12 Monkeys still look as radical now as they did at the time? jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/film-club-...

An audio episode and a video episode for Christmas Day... On YouTube, we answer the question of why do we love Doctor Who: jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/film-club-... And over on our audio feed, we watch a pair of Christmas movies with an odd connection to the podcast itself: youtu.be/RIi4PauXhnM

Our thoughts on the final episode of The War Between the Land and the Sea: jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/who-review...

Our review of The War Between the Land and the Sea comes with a content warning; as well as some swears, we will also be talking about The War Between the Land and the Sea and there might not be that much détente between the four of us either.... youtu.be/SFl6g4wkY2A

It's time for our annual House of Games-adjacent, Doctor Who-themed Christmas quiz, and this time there's something a little different about the way the teams work... jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/blue-box-2...

Our Hammer retrospective gets fully underway with a look at the three films that kicked off the company's enduring relationship with their most iconic characters - in The Curse of Frankenstein (1957), Dracula (1958) and The Mummy (1959) jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/film-club-...

We're now just two episodes away from what looks like the end of the RTD-2niverse, but what would we make of the developing War Between the Land and the Sea? youtu.be/2aspSVx75XY

We begin a watch-through of the best (and much of the rest) of the Hammer horrors, with two Quatermass-adjacent sci-fi films that were either inspired by or adapted from Nigel Kneale's early TV serials: X the Unknown and The Abominable Snowman jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/film-club-...

This year's Christmas Special (in the absence of any other), as chosen by the randomiser, is The Time of the Doctor - and we'll be choosing our first Blakes 7 episode to review too jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/who-review...

Next week on Strangers in Space... It's Week 2 of The War Between the Land and the Sea, there's a new Knives Out Mystery to talk about, there will be two volumes of Hammer retrospective and we'll be choosing our first Blakes 7 review Find all our links here: strangersinspace.weebly.com/links.html

It's officially Christmas here at Strangers in Space, and we're kicking off the twelve days with a double video episode wherein we choose our best original run Yuletide story, and then two rather oddly comprised teams indulge in our annual festive quiz. youtu.be/nHX-oocZfoo

A change of showrunners brings a change of style, but is it acceptable to expect the man who wrote Coupling to sex up Doctor Who - and were there moments when the new approach went too far? jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/blue-box-1... Our new homes: strangersinspace.weebly.com/links.html

Did week one of the latest Doctor Who spin-off, The War Between the Land and the Sea, run aground, take flight, or sink without trace? jrsouthall.podbean.com/e/who-review...
