Who's He? Podcast 460 | Doctor Who: Let's look to the future

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Review - Boom After last weeks divisive episodes, Phil and Paul turn their attention to Boom written by Steven Moffat. Does this episode improve on last weeks offering of Doctor Who or does it suffer the excesses of Steven Moffat's writing? With the themes of religion, AI and arms manufacturers featuring heavily in this story, this episode of the podcast decides to use the phrase "hard man stick".

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast..... Space Babies and The Devil's Chord Review Doctor Who is back on Saturday nights with the first season of Ncuti Gatwa's take on the The Doctor. With two episodes airing this week, Phil and Paul tackle both Space Babies and The Devil's Chord but is this Doctor who as they knew it or have the pair of them finally been left out of the viewing demographic? With comparisons made with The Sarah Jane Adventures and Phil using the word "gurning", perhaps time has been called?

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Doctor Who: Let's look to the future With less than a week to go before Ncuti Gatwa begins his first full series as Doctor Who, Phil and Scott take a look ahead to see if they are excited and looking forward to the new series. But to let you all into a little secret, while Scott is full of youthful enthusiasm and can't wait for the new series to start, Phil is less excited and ponders whether this is where he parts ways with Doctor Who!

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Review - Phantasmagoria Cricket! Gambling! Yes, this episode Phil and Paul enter the world of gentlemen's rooms with Phantasmagoria from Big Finish. In this story featuring Peter Davison as the Doctor and Mark Strickson as Turlough, dodgy playing cards, spirits and a house made of meat is the order of the day. But what did they think of this story that was released when Paul and Phil were both in the twenties? Apart from making them feel old of course!

Along the way both Phil and Scott take conversational diversions to the BBC Shop, the Children's Film Foundation and Screen Test.

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Introducing The First Doctor In an occasional series, Phil and Scott are discussing the episodes of Doctor Who that introduced us to a new Doctor. And to kick things off, they start right at the very beginning with William Hartnell in An Unearthly Child. With a lot to set up and with the very first episode being filmed twice, Phil and Scott look at the pilot and the transmitted episodes and how effective were either of them in introducing the Doctor to the world. Also, in the news, Varada Sethu is officially announced as the 15th Doctor's companion for season 2 and that she will be travelling alongside Millie Gibson!

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Who's He? at The Movies | Night of The Demon This time Phil takes a look at one of his favourite British horror movies, Night of the Demon starring Dana Andrews. In a tale of witchcraft, hairy demons and disbelieving square jawed scientists, this M.R. James classic ghost story is bought to the silver screen in a film that Phil has been fascinated with since he was a child.

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Horror of Fang Rock - Review This episode Phil and Scott settled down to watch the new and shiny version of Horror of Fang Rock from the recent Season 15 blu-ray collection. New effects, screaming ladies and plenty of fog is the order of the day with Tom Baker and Louise Jameson on fine form. They also go through the number of changes made to the special effects (spoilers ahoy!) and Phil takes Scott through a quick potted history of producer Graham Williams and touches upon how awkward Tom Baker was towards him. But what's this? The BBC also release a new trailer for the upcoming series of Doctor Who, along with all 8 episode titles. Of course, the lads talk about that as well.

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Review - The Caves of Androzani What has taken these two so long to get around to talking about this story?  In episode in which Phil has the occasional disagreement with his microphone stand, Paul and he discuss The Caves of Androzani, Peter Davison's final story in the role of the Doctor. While considered an all time classic by just about everyone, will Phil and Paul find fault? And just why didn't the Doctor take his medicine early? The news is also covered as we get Paul's take on the method in which the new series is being released on iPlayer first and their reaction to Steven Moffat returning to write for Doctor Who. But they don't talk about the new trailer as this was recorded way in advance of that!

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Review - Flatline Phil and Scott decided to revisit the Peter Capaldi era of Doctor Who with Flatline, a story that has little bit of significance for Phil as this was the first episode of Doctor Who that he watched with Scott way back in 2014! But how does this story hold up for both of them after all this time and how does Clara's story arc of wanting to be the Doctor feel to them both? Also, in the news Doctor Who is back on our screens on 11th May but with a twist that will upset purists!
