Latest Podcast Episodes

Afinal, o que acontece com os companions depois que o Doutor vai embora? E qual a influência do Doutor na vida do cidadão comum que não viaja com ele?Em LUCKY DAY, um episódio quase sem Doutor, temos a volta de Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson), que tenta seguir em frente após suas viagens a bordo da TARDIS. Ela conhece um novo rapaz, Conrad Clark (Jonah Hauer-King), que teve uma experiência com o Doutor ainda criança e criou um podcast (!) para contar sua história. Quando uma ameaça se apresenta, eles contam com a ajuda de Kate Stewart (Jemma Redgrave) e da UNIT.Estresse pós-traumático, as "mentiras" da UNIT e Sra. Flood se apresentando como "A Governadora": vem com a gente nesse review!

Well, well, well. This week returns us to Midnight, but this time with Lombardo space marines on a search and recovery mission to a diamond mine that has gone silent. Another interesting future-tech gadget from the mind of RTD, with the TARDIS cracking the spacesuit selection for Belinda and the Doctor. But overall, David thought the Doctor's thinking and planning was sloppy and Ben thought the story was a bit choppy. Opening music is "Diamonds are Forever" composed and conducted by John Barry with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Closing music is a 1935 recording from Guy Lombardo and the Royal Canadians, "I'm Just an Ordinary Human". We recorded this episode on 29 April 2025.

Join James, Michele and Brent for their instant(ish) reaction to episode four of the new series of Doctor Who, Lucky Day! But not before we go through the feedback you wonderful listeners have sent us about last week’s episode, The Well.

What did you think? Let us know by emailing the Campervan at feedback@thedoctorwhopodcast.com, Tweeting or Xing us, or jump on our Facebook Page or Group!

No “more considered” episode this week, but Ian and James will be back on Sunday with a live recording from the bank of the River Thames after they’ve seen the 20th Anniversary screening of Dalek and Father’s Day at The British Film Institute.

Because they are in the grounds of Hellwood Manor - the first safari park for ghosts!

But strange electric pulses started to be detected in its forests... and then they started to get stronger... and then people lost their memories...

Review - The Well

Phil and Paul return for a more in depth review of The Well, the latest episode of Doctor Who, starring Ncuti Gatwa and Varada Sethu. With both of them surprised at this being a sequel to Midnight (and some people not so surprised), were they also impressed with the performances, the tension what seems to be some strange editing choices? And just why was Brian May mentioned again?

Well, we knew Lux was going to be a hard act to follow, but The Well does a bang-up job! And, by that, we mean that it's the entity banging these poor troopers all over the room in that one scene! Yeah, fantastic performances from everyone. More characters that we care about in a short time. And impressive return of a Modern Who monster we didn't really see coming and lots of speculation about possible Pantheon influence and wondering what Mrs Flood's rank is. Let's get at it!

SHOW NOTES

(00:04:08) At this year’s Capitol event, we got Peter Davison to autograph Mark’s copy of Doctor Who Monthly #55 and we’re offering it to someone who send us a Private Message on any of our social media platforms (linked above). We’ll draw a name out of a hat during the next podcast. The magazine can be seen on our Tumblr page here.

(00:05:57) This audio clip is from Russell T Davies’ 2008 interview with Mark Lawson which can be seen here. The actual clip starts at 00:06:50.

(00:07:16) “The Robot Revolution” or “The Robot Wars” was the first extended Judge Dredd story that ran in early issues of 2000 AD from progs 10-17 in 1978.

(00:15:52) This audio clip is from “The Jet Propelled Guided NAAFI”, from “The Goon Show”.

(01:32:20) This audio clip is from S08E13 of “The Simpsons” and the clip can be seen here.

(01:36:50) At this year’s Capitol event, we got Peter Davison to autograph Mark’s copy of Doctor Who Monthly #55 and we’re offering it to someone who send us a Private Message on any of our social media platforms (linked above). We’ll draw a name out of a hat during the next podcast. The magazine can be seen on our Tumblr page here.

The Diddly Dum Podcast acknowledges the copyright of anyone we’ve pinched anything from.

In a rare intersection of time and space, Ben and David sit down on the same couch in the same living room at the same time to not only watch "Lux", a new episode of Doctor Who, but also to record a podcast on the very same story together. Wow! We talk about animation, RTD's storytelling and handling of 1952 America, Belinda's yellow dress, and breaking the fourth wall and who Davies depicted to represent fandom (replete with good-natured Moffat ribbing). Opening music is from "Make 'em Laugh" by Nacio Herb Brown and Arthur Freed from the 1952 MGM musical Singin' in the Rain and performed by Donald O'Connor. Closing music is "The Girl In The Yellow Dress" by David Gilmour and Polly Sampson off of the 2015 album, Rattle That Lock. We recorded this podcast on 23 April 2025.

JB and Sean are joined by Lelon Stoldt for this round of Disney Who episode reviews.  And though we all dump on “The Robot Revolution”, we actually have a lot of nice things to say about “Lux” and “The Well”.  Is RTD setting us up for another disappointing series finale, or will he actually stick the landing this time? In any event, f*ck him for killing the cat!  

Russell T Davies returns to cosmic horror, a medium in which he excels, in “The Well”, an episode full of invisible enemies, reigns of terror, and a need to listen! What did the Three Who Rule think of this scary excursion 400,000 years into the future? And more to the point, did you know Steven helped get HD footage into The War Games In Colour? Plus new Big Finish including Jodie Whittaker and Mandip Gill’s first audio adventure, a book about Kangs (who don’t conquer), a big ol’ Quatermass box set, and more! Next week, will it be our Lucky Day?

This month, we’re diving into the 2001 BBC Books Eighth Doctor novel, Father Time.

Following on from our recent synopsis episode, this is the main event: a full discussion of the novel—what works, what doesn’t, and how it fits into the broader Eighth Doctor era. We also explore the plot, the tone, and some standout characters, including the Doctor’s daughter, Miranda!

Before all that, we kick things off with the usual mix of news and short topics you’ve come to expect. Then, after the book chat, we open the mailbag for a bumper listener feedback section—nearly 25 minutes of your thoughts, theories, and reactions. Our listeners are the best.

And if you enjoy our musical moments, don’t skip the end! Inspired by some of that listener feedback, we play a very special song after the closing credits—one that was nearly lost to time after its chance to appear in a recent episode of Gin & TARDIS came and went.

So we're here to help! With Father Time being discussed on Sunday’s main show, this episode isn’t a discussion itself, but a chapter-by-chapter breakdown of the novel’s events—perfect for refreshing your memory or getting up to speed before the conversation.
