Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 11 minutes and 31 secondsMatt Smith's leaving Doctor Who, and Mutter's Spiral Podcast is awash in speculation, wishcasting and left-field scenarios for the Fall of the Eleventh and the subsequent regeneration into the TWELFTH.

He continues with 2 variations of a TENNANT SCENARIO that would lead to the return of David Tennant to the TARDIS.
John then leads us through the various contenders mentioned in the press, and he very cogently and smartly sums up what is needed in the next Doctor. After he details the names everyone's saying, he then comes through with two GREAT "out there" ideas, including one so diabolical that it's worthy of Steven Moffat himself.
You'll have to listen all the way through to hear them - in all, it's an hour of Doctor Who chat and speculation. Take a listen and also - tell us what YOU think! Who's your choice for the next Doctor?

MUTTER'S SPIRAL 52 - 7b Finale Theories
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 12 minutes and 16 secondsThe day has nearly arrived - the DOCTOR WHO Series 7b Finale, where we learn "The Name of the Doctor" AND all about Clara's deal.
SO, it's time to speculate, theorize, hypothesize, guess, and finally throw our hands up in exasperation but also exultation at the mysteries Steven Moffat have devised.
John has a good solid theory, one even Will thinks is more likely to be true. Will has a more fanciful and longer term one (includes 50th WAG).
Includes discussion of "She Said, He Said", the prologue to the finale as well as bringing in clues from the various trailers for the episode, information from the Doctor Who novels (we BOTH mine that for theory support), and even hints and tidbits from the Moff, Matt, Jenna, et al!
If you want some speculation and theories to help you solidify your own theory, take a listen!
If you want to laugh at some bad guesses (most likely), take a listen!
We recorded this on Monday, and since then, I've thought, "Oh, I'm even LESS Close than I thought", then I felt "Hey, i MIGHT be onto something!", then I realized that again Moffat is several moves ahead of us on the chessboard... as usual!
PS - No trivia on this episode.
