Hoist your moonrakers and splice the mainbrace! It's Enlightenment. Now, Andy and Alex love the bones of Doctor Who, really they do, but Enlightenment sorely tests them. The things they struggle with are many and varied: the pantomime nature of its villains; the lack of conviction of most of the actors; the Doctor's constant bullying and gaslighting of Tegan; the bizarre amount of attention afforded to tiny unimportant details; Marriner being rapey; Striker being deliberately boring; the dullness of the race. The list is pretty endless...
But, fear not, as ever, the opportunity to talk about Doctor Who brings the pair much joy and laughter. Listen along as they: rail against a ChatGPT Tegan-themed quiz that believes her exit line is linked to the Falklands War; debate if Nigel Havers was 'never out of a naval uniform'; fail to remember Roy's surname in Eastenders; and discuss how one always 'sleep dead uncomfortable in a fake bed.'
Finally, don't fall for the revival of the bamboo furniture craze and, if you were still in any doubt, the Vacuum Shield is most definitely OFF.
Next Time: Terror of the Zygons

Next Time: Terror of the Zygons
As Alex and Andy hit 60 episodes they review possibly one of the most bonkers stories in Doctor Who history! The TARDIS is stolen by Leatherman, the Daleks are selling antique victoriana in the 1960s, people keep getting knocked out for no reason and the Daleks are playing trains and making the Doctor dizzy. Yes its Evil of the Daleks!
The pair are still at Athelhampton House as they talk about the Daleks denying Victoria her Disney princess moment, problematic Kemel, the incredibly convoluted Dalek-plot to trap the Doctor, and the most unnecessary characters in all of Doctor Who: Arthur Terrall and Ruth Maxtible.
Do not feed the flying pests!
