  • Episode 125: The Nightmare Is Over
    Mar 22 2026

    Well, how about that? Episodes 1 & 3 of The Daleks' Masterplan have been found and will be released on the BBC iPlayer at Easter.

    In the meantime, Gav, Giles and Paul join Richard for a discussion about the episodes themselves. What do we already know from the soundtracks, clips, photos and camera scripts? What about the newly recovered clips we've been shown? What should we be looking out for?

    We'll be back after the episodes have been released to discuss how closely they mirrored our expectations and what's completely new.

    Head over to https://www.bigfinish.com/, where we all love Paul's stories.

    Giles is a published author with many books, primarily related to science and astronomy. check out his work here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Giles-Sparrow/author/B001IXOESC, at all good bookshops, and a few bad ones too.

    Richard's other podcast "If It's Hurting, It's not Working" is currently on hiatus, but it's a fun and informative look at work - why we work, how we work, and what makes a great job. And also what makes a great workplace, how to turn things round when we're not enjoying our work and, in the end, how we can all make our work better. We've moved - for all episodes, now go to https://open.spotify.com/show/4c8RB62kyKkfMPixhM7MmG.

    The Something Who logo, which features prominently on all our cover art was designed for us by Bea Garrido. She's a really talented artist, who you can find by following this link: https://beagarridoart.weebly.com/, where you can buy prints of some remarkable paintings of characters from Doctor Who.

    The opening music is Three Guitars Mood 2 and, yes, that is Richard playing the ukulele and kazoo on possibly the worst ever version of the Doctor Who theme tune at the end.

  • Episode 124: Quite Daunted, Eh?
    Mar 16 2026

    It's the second half of a chat about a pairing of stories suggested by Gav: last time the two part 6th Doctor story Timelash from Season 22, which we paired this time with 9th Doctor outing The Unquiet Dead from Series 1. We'll decide whether watching them was a gas, or just let us feeling aghast. Joining Richard for the discussion are Gav, Giles and Paul.
