Doctor Who

  • Doctor Who: Every ‘Witch’ way gets Loose…

    Last week’s Doctor Who episode ‘Kerblam!‘ was a dark satire on a certain massive delivery corporation and though – in the end – the real cosmic threat didn’t come directly from the business model, there were those who wondered if Amazon was even slightly perturbed by the comparisons. On...
  • Latest ‘Who’ season to end in heat of ‘Battle’…

    It seemed we had to wait an age for the return of Doctor Who and even since Jodie Whittaker plummeted into a Sheffield train carriage there’s been far less information about upcoming episodes than there has been in recent years. But we’re now in the latter half of the...
  • Doctor without Borders? ‘Demons’ takes on Partition…

    As Yaz listens to some of the stories that her grandmother Umbreen tells of her youth she is interested by some of the details that she appears to be deliberately leaving out.  Given a recent (off-screen) mishap with Death-Eyed Turtles, Yaz feels the Doctor owes them a more personal...
  • Doctor Who and the shape of Ptings to come..?

    While scavenging for parts on a junk asteroid, the Doctor and her team accidentally set off a sonic mine and end up in the Tsungara medical facility, needing time to recover. But time may be a luxury because separated from the Tardis means that there’s no way off the...
  • Why Who not present for Christmas? What of 2019?

    Rumours, ill-founded or not, are usually to be found circling all things Doctor Who with speculation rapidly becoming debated then accepted as fact until its formally denied – and often not helped by the tabloids reporting what is said on internet forums as fact and then said forums taking...
  • Doctor Who: Between Arach and a Hard Case…

    After traversing time and space, the Tardis team are finally back in Sheffield, though it seems they’ve hardly been gone at all.  However it also appears that something is very wrong in – and under – the city. What turns out to be far more than a missing-persons concern...
  • Tabula ‘Rosa’: Doctor Who passes historical test…

    The Doctor lands the Tardis in a back-alley and is only half-surprised to find out it’s not Sheffield circa 2018, but Montgomery, Alabama in the 1950s.  Before they can depart, the Doctor detects something amiss: signs of misplaced energies that indicate time-travel that precedes their arrival.  Deciding to investigate,...
  • Doctor Who 11.2: Desolate, but Monumental Improvements…

    The last time we saw The Doctor (Jodie Whittaker) and her new friends, her calculations had gone askew and instead of materialising with the Tardis, they’ve been left floating in the vacuum of space. Sadly, they all die – and that’s the episode done.  Or… not. No, just in...
  • Falling Broadly, Rising Thriftly: Doctor Who regenerates…

    In the fields and woods above Sheffield, a young man  tries to find his balance and, instead, finds a doorway from another world. On the train-tracks in the heart of the city, the late-night express comes to an abrupt halt when an alien visitor makes an unexpected ticket-check. And...
