Doctor Who – The Power Of The Doctor (2022)(TV Review)
I have discussed Doctor Who plenty of times, doing pieces on each of Jodie Whittaker’s series, but the first specific episode review of Doctor Who I did was way back in January 2018, when I covered the recent Twice Upon A Time, the final episode for both Peter Capaldi as […]

Doctor Who: Eve of the Daleks (2021)(Review)
CONTAINS SPOILERS Since Doctor Who crashed back on our Christmas TV schedules in 2005 with tenth Doctor David Tennent’s maiden voyage in The Christmas Invasion, the festive tradition of Christmas Who’s sat nicely alongside our turkey and Quality Street on the 25th December. That was until Chris Chibnall took over […]
Doctor Who Flux – the Vanquishers (Episode 6)(Review)

CONTAINS SPOILERS This series is like a greatest hit’s tour of Doctor Who villains, a bumpy ghost train, with […]
Doctor Who Flux – Once Upon Time (Episode 3)(Review)
“Once Upon Time”. We’re a long way down the time vortex, and there is no place like home. Doctor Who goes into overdrive in a badly structured meander into madness. CONTAINS SPOILERS To start with, an apology for wrongly titling this week’s episode in last week’s review. Perhaps too entrenched […]
Doctor Who Flux – War of the Sontarans (Episode 2)(Review)
“War of the Sontarans”. Better, but still bonkers. It’s episode 2 of the latest Doctor Who series and I think my brain may be starting to adjust to the manic pacing and nonsensical scripting – I actually watched this episode without hanging out the washing (that’s what happens when you […]
Doctor Who: Flux – Halloween Apocalypse (Episode 1)(Review)
The start of the much-anticipated thirteenth series marks the beginning of the end for Jodie Whittaker’s Doctor and showrunner Chris Chibnall, but will the number thirteen prove unlucky for the controversial combo?
