26: Rose
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 20 minutes and 3 seconds1.01
Yes, really! Erika and Steven watch and discuss the first episode of “new-Who”, “Rose” from 2005.
Why on Earth would we jump ahead 41 years? Well, you’ll have to listen to find out! We like to keep you guessing here at LDW HQ.
But never fear, there’ll be more classic Doctor Who coming at you soon. Or not-soon, depending on how lazy we are. But we’re not giving up on the good old days!

If you’ve been following along with the serial codes as we’ve listed them on the website, you’ll note the letter I was skipped. That’s because “I” looks too much like the number 1 and could have been confusing. Production code neepery FTW!
