Steven Moffat has once again delivered another classic Doctor Who episode. Doctor Who: Boom is brilliant.   It is the best episode the programme has produced in the past several years and will rank high in any list of Doctor Who episodes. It is dark, emotional and “woke”, taking on everything from capitalism, arms manufacturers, and artificial intelligence algorithms to blind faith.   This is Moffat’s hero without a gun but with an extra heart. “It’s hard to talk about the importance of an imaginary hero. But heroes ARE important: Heroes tell us something about ourselves. H ..read more

They say demons run when a good man goes to war, and here are some of the finest examples from six decades of Doctor Who going to war War, yeah? What is it good for?

The series premiere unites Disney money with the spirit of late 1970s Doctor Who to launch an adorably chaotic new duo   Space babies. Space babies. Space babies. Space babies. We’ve certainly come a long way since the Twelfth Doctor declared “people never … put the word ‘space’ before something just because it’s all hi-tech and futurey.” Now nothing gives the Doctor, in the form of Ncuti Gatwa, greater joy then babies in space. Space babies. But who can blame him? It’s a pretty joyous phrase to say. And a pretty joyous episode to watch. This ‘second sight’ review reconsiders the episode ..read more

Out now, Echoes reunites the Eighth Doctor, Liv and Helen for the first time since 2022’s Connections Birdsong by Tim Foley Opening the set, Birdsong is a much more low-key entry into the Eighth Doctor range. Set on an empty world where two scouts await the rest of their colony, The Doctor, Liv and Helen find themselves embroiled in a mystery. The supporting cast of Jane Asher as Myra, and Fiona Button as Bex, make for a phenomenal ensemble cast when pitted alongside our regulars. Whilst the story itself is simplistic, and with a minimal cast, don’t let this fool you. This story packs a g ..read more

The Devil’s Chord is an adventure unlike any other, further opening the possibilities within Doctor Who, and leaving room for a potential future fully musical episode Offering itself as a clear contrast to Space Babies, The Devil’s Chord serves as yet another slice of the Doctor Who pie to new viewers, showing just how versatile the show actually is. Despite the double whammy premiere lessening the run of the season from eight weeks to seven, this strategy is sure to grab the attention of new viewers by the contrast alone between the two episodes. If one word had to be used to describe The Dev ..read more
