What a fascinating discussion this week's Doctor Who episode lends itself to. Join Deb, Erika, and Tansy as we discuss women who are allowed to fail and still be heroes, the sexual politics of Romans, the Doctor's (possible?) impatience, Bill's outlook on history and its denizens, Nardole as a "space tourist", and much more.

Erika, of all people, even has a cracktastic fan theory about the next season of the show. Incredibly unlikely, but kinda fun, depending on your outlook.

What did you think about this story? Was it slight? Were the stakes high? Was the monster the point? Was the doctor impatient or irritable or something else? What's up with Missy? SO MANY QUESTIONS. Please feel free to play in the comment section like it's one big happy fandom sandbox.

Also covered:

• Tansy
  • Kickstarts a fabulous speculative fiction anthology of diverse, challenging stories about gender and AI, which we have all backed, and you should too!
  • attends the Australian National Science Fiction Convention and won a Ditmar Award for Best Novella or Novelette for "Did We Break the End of the World?", from Defying Doomsday!
• Erika flashes back to #shelfwars as she and Steven prepare to move their DW materiel to a new apartment.
• Deb wants the epic flirty snark that James Goss wrote between Captain Jack and Jackie Tyler in the new Big Finish audio, The Lives of Captain Jack #2!

This week, Phil and Paul look at The Eaters of Light by returning Doctor Who scribe Rona Munro.

Listen to find out what they thought plus what our listeners thought in our feedback section.

And in the news, Derek Jacobi is coming to Big Finish as the Master, the date has been given of when the Doctor Who Experience will close and of course, Omega's Stats Corner!

Empress of Mars & Eaters of Light

Adam, Mary, Isabella, Andy and Kirby catch up on New Who reviewing the last two stories so far of series 10. We also have feedback, news and You Won't Get This One with a surprise result.

The Monks Trilogy wraps up on a moody, atmospheric note with "The Lie of the Land," and Mark Gatiss wraps up his time as contributor to the show (Say it ain't so!) with the retro-Ice Warriors/Zulu tribute, "Empress of Mars."

MUTTER'S SPIRAL Podcast this week talks all about "The Eaters of Light", episode 10 of Series 10 (or 36) of DOCTOR WHO. This episode marks the return of classic series writer Rona Munro (Writer of "Survival", the final 7th Doctor story, which was also the final story of the first run of the series) to the WHO family. It's a story of Picts and Romans and Crows and Locusts which we both quite enjoyed. We'll talk about what we liked as well as what could have been a bit better for us. We'll also talk about how things stand heading into the HUGE 2-part finale that starts next week. Plus, there's trivia and a bit of news!

Please have a listen!
