We here at Radio Free Skaro Towers pride ourselves on our ability to shoehorn Canadian content into our discussion of a British institution, but prepare yourself for a megaton-level of maple syrup as we welcome fellow Canuck Graeme Burk with a look back at the 20th anniversary of modern Doctor Who and all the surrounding hoopla, broadcast machinery and piracy that surrounded it! Buckle up – it’s the trip of a lifetime! Links: Guest:

It’s a week of podcast adjacent activity as the fine folk at the Merseyside Doctor Who Group shouted out this very podcast on the occasion of our breaching the transom of 1000 episodes, David Tennant hosts one Russell T Davies on his podcast and most importantly, fine gentlemen Neil Perryman and John Williams announce an oncoming storm known as World of Telly! Plus, we have news and base speculation about both the new Character Options 3rd Doctor and sonic and possible future iterations, crochet fan works, behind the scenes camera excitement from Terror of the Suburbs, and a chinwag with...

It’s another exciting week of almost there but not quite new Doctor Who and as such the BBC released a new trailer for Season 2 mere moments before we released last week’s episode, as befits the tenor of our times. We also go into detail on a since-expunged German Disney+ Season 2 trailer with new footage, actor Freddie Fox, reflections on criminal behaviour when Rose leaked 20 years ago, and most importantly, new Doctors Who in Little People form the good folk at Fisher Price. Only slightly less important, our Miniscope about pioneering Doctor Who producer and director Mervyn Pinfield!...

It’s the week after Gallifrey One which means two things: post-Gally malaise AND a giant pile of news, including a release date of April 12 for Season 2 on iPlayer (and also theoretically Disney Plus), speculation on the future of Doctor Who as per usual, a boatload of Big Finish, new books, a new RTD-penned series called “Tip-Toe” coming next year to Channel 4, and endless Youtube cogitation mostly revolving around Steven reacting to things. Take a listen if you dare! Links:

It’s a bittersweet podcast today as we wrap up what has been a fantastic weekend at Gallifrey One, our home away from home. But it’s even more sad as it’s been announced that Gallifrey One will end its unprecedented run of conventions in 2028. It will take a while for the Three Who Rule to process this (probably more than the three years the convention has left), but fun is still had with Doctor Who writer Andrew Smith joining the Three for a recap of the convention, Big Finish secrets, and naturally, talk of The Sandbaggers.

It’s Gallifrey One, it’s the start of a mammoth weekend for Doctor Who fans, and it is a milestone for the Three Who Rule – their ONE THOUSANDTH episode! And what better way to pass the one thousand barrier than a full length interview with Doctor Who writer and former show runner Steven Moffat, and current Doctor Who executive producer Julie Gardner! Thanks to Shaun Lyon, Graham Kibble-White, Jack Kibble-White, Ken Deep, and special thanks to Paul McGann for narrating our opening video! Links:

It’s that time of year again, our pre-Gallifrey One rundown of the greatest convention on Earth as we go through the schedule with a fine tooth comb, examine which panels and other events we and others are excited about, and as a special bonus this year you’ll get to hear Steven go completely off the rails about UK television stalwart Z-Cars! Next stop: Gallifrey One, and Episode 1000 with Steven Moffat and Julie Gardner LIVE on stage on Friday! Links:
info_outlineIt is the beginning of Warren’s 54th trip around the Sun (aka Hot Orbie) as we release this episode and as such the Three Who Rule ponder news of new Gallifrey One guests, the official announcement of an animated recon of the 1966 Doctor Who story “The Savages”, an unofficial and very cool animated recon of “The Wheel in Space”, Doctor Who audio news, Steven’s overcomplicated Andor-Doctor Who-Disney+ conspiracy-laden paranoia, and an exciting interview with both Paul and Sonny McGann from Chicago TARDIS!
