There are hundreds of Doctor Who episodes and stories out there and we set out to watch them all! Not just that – We set out to watch, review, discuss, debate, rate and praise and/or poke holes in every episode of Doctor Who, starting with the 1963 pilot. That’s right; we started with William Hartnell and worked our way forward through time, episode by episode and Doctor by Doctor. In parallel, we also reviewed New Who, starting with Eccleston in the 2005 revival. At the time of writing this we're reviewing Ncuti Gatwa's first series and are nearly caught up!
From comparing Dalek and Cybermen military strategems to ranking companions by hairstyle, we’ve got it covered. And while you subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcast fix, we’re populating WhoBackWhen.com with written reviews, episode statistics and an ever-growing Visual Index of aliens, creatures, historical figures and companions that the Doctor meets along the way. So join us! We'd love to travel down that temporal road with you!

N179 The Church on Ruby Road — The 2023 Christmas Special
A mysterious cloaked figure enigmatically leaves a newborn baby behind on the collection doorstep of St. Building Atmosphere’s Church one snowy Christmas Eve, departing without so much as a “Goodbye, Ruby Sunday”. Who could hang that name on her?
Flash forward 18 years and the foundling has grown up to become another wide-eyed portion of grist for Davina McCall’s sentimentality mill. But just when Ruby hopes to find out about her family, her foster mum Carla gets a new baby with the same birthday to care for over Christmas.
Enter the Fifteenth Doctor, catching Ruby’s gin and tonic here, sprinting down roof ridges there. Turns out her accidents were no accident, this series of coincidences indeed no coincidence, as every adopted character ever fostered in the show has become fair game for the gobblin’.
