In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Welcome The Ninth Doctor - Rose We return to our occasional series where Phil and Scott look at the inaugural stories that introduced the world to a new Doctor. This time, we welcome Christopher Eccleston as the ninth Doctor in Rose.  After 16 years away from television, did Rose successfully bring Doctor Who into the modern era? How does Christopher Eccleston perform as the Doctor, and what makes his version of the character so memorable? And was the story successful in bringing a new Doctor and a new era of Doctor Who back to television? And in the news this week, Phil & Scott catch up with who is apparently bidding to make Doctor Who for the BBC and there is tat news in Omega's Tat Corner.

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Welcome The Ninth(ish) Doctor - Scream of The Shalka We return to our occasional series where Phil and Scott look at the inaugural stories that introduced the world to a new Doctor. This time, it's the turn of the Ninth Doctor but not the one you were expecting.  Yes, Phil and Scott are talking about the other Ninth Doctor, Richard E. Grant in Scream of the Shalka. In 2003, the future of Doctor Who was online and in the form of Flash animation.  But behind the scenes shenanigans and the constant phrase "rights issues" scuppered this iteration of Doctor Who before anyone had seen a single frame.

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Review - Doctor Who and The Pirates Aha me hearties, Cap'n Phil and Boatswain Scott take to the high seas to bring you a review of Doctor Who and The Pirates from Big Finish, starring Colin Baker as the Doctor and Maggie Stables as Evelyn Smythe.  But there is a very good reason why the lads picked this audio story.  Sadly, the other star of this audio story, Bill Oddie sadly passed away.  Bill Oddie was a legend of British comedy and more known recently for his passion for ornithology and conservation, so the Who's He? Podcast are reviewing this in tribute to him. Also in the news, we also sadly lost Tom Chadbon, Duggan in City of Death and Merdeen in The Mysterious Planet.

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Random Who - Revenge of The Cybermen In this podcast, the Who's He? Randomiser selected Revenge of The Cybermen for Scott & Phil to deliberate over.  Does this season closer for season 12 of Doctor Who round off Tom Baker's first series nicely?  Or is it as bad as a lot of people make it out to be?  And will the appearance of Hazy the cat ruin proceedings? And in a long overdue return to Omega's Tat Corner, it's electroplated metallic tat!

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Unplanned Who - Best and Worst Companions Once again, Phil and Scott select a completely random Doctor Who topic from the hat of a failed actor and try to chat about it for as long as they can.  And to Phil's horror, this episode Scott manages to select the topic of the best and worst companions for each Doctor.   So sit back and listen to a discussion that will most likely annoy you at some point.
