This week, the "Doctor Who" is Peter Davison's swan song, "The Caves of Androzani." The "Other Things" are Buffy and Angel!

Next week, we'll be talking about "Attack of the Cybermen," featuring Colin Baker as the Sixth Doctor. The week after that we'll be talking about a Seventh Doctor story... of your choosing! Comment here on this post, or leave an @ reply for @TheCloisterRoom on Twitter telling us which Seventh Doctor story we should discuss. Stories not on DVD are fine!

Hello all, here is episode number five of 'Who' - Is the Man Cast where I review Doctor Who: Vampires of Venice, recommend some episodes of Stargate SG-1, start a Discworld (a series of books, for those of you who don't know) section and I read some feedba- no I don't, oh well.

Also I plug (finally) The 20MB Doctor Who podcast: http://www.facebook.com/?sk=236183122#!/group.php?gid=123660367652675 ( I hope that works).

And as always if you are looking for this podcast on iTunes, just type: 'Who' - Is The Man Cast.

Oh my giddy aunt!

If there was a Doctor that many commentators said inspired Matt Smith in the creation of his Doctor’s persona, it was one Patrick Troughton, the second Doctor.

Trevor and Tom explore the era of this most brilliant of Doctors in the first part of our retrospective of his work before, during and after his time on Doctor Who.

In this first part, we look at his time before Doctor Who, and cover his first season in 1966.

Stay tuned, for later in the week we release the second part of our series on Patrick Troughton, the cosmic hobo.

Jago and Litefoot. Yup, more of the simply wonderful Big Finish series. There's lots of feedback and we end with some music that includes vampires and a certain big, blue boy scout....

In a not-so-unprecedented move, Steven and Chris welcome back the Two-minute Time Lord himself, Chip, to take a look at what is thought by many to be the weak point of Series 5 -- Victory of the Daleks. The Series 5 commentary series examines where the episode went right and where it went wrong, and of course there can never be enough discussion about the Power Rangers-esque Daleks. Will opinions change for the better? Will they change for the worse? Will Churchill ever put out that blasted cigar when in the bunker? Only some of those questions will be answered in this week's Radio Free Skaro!
