• Radio Free Skaro #291 – That Which Survives

    A simple commentary about "Closing Time," which gave the Three Who Rule ample time to discuss the great chemistry between Matt Smith and guest star James Corden, instead devolved into a simply rancid discussion on babies and their propensity to poop on this episode of Radio Free Skaro. Our ...

  • Radio Free Skaro #290 – Whom Gods Destroy

    Ah, that's the January we remember. The Christmas Special aired weeks ago, it's a long time until new Doctor Who (even longer than usual) and there's really not too much going on in the Who world. But there's always Gallifrey! A bit of Gally news and banter helps, well, fill ...

  • Radio Free Skaro #288 – Friday’s Child

    Despite January usually being a lean time for news of things Who, this week was chock full of factoids and quasi-related marginalia for the Three Who Rule to ponder and prognosticate upon. Of course all seriousness went out the window with a commentary on "Night Terrors," which such weighty matters ...

Radio Free Skaro #204 – Click here to listen

Something almost completely impossible happened this week in that not only did the Series 5 finale, The Big Bang, provide a fantastic and satisfying end to one of the best series of Doctor Who in recent memory, but the Three Who Rule actually agreed on how much they enjoyed a series finale. From Steven Moffat’s mastery of what could have been a convoluted story to Matt Smith’s best performance as The Doctor (again, for the 13th straight week), The Big Bang had it all, and it only makes the six-month wait until the 2010 Christmas special seem that much longer. And what will Radio Free Skaro do to pass the time until then? Listen and find out…

Screen shot 2009-11-19 at 10.47.58 AMThe BBC this morning formally announced the previously unknown title for the Christmas Day episode. While it has been known for months that Tennant’s final episode would be called “The End of Time” the production team was keeping things hush hush for the penultimate episode, though that silence has now been broken and we now know the title to be — wait for it — “The End of Time Part One“.

Okay, call it a smidge underwhelming that they’ve teased us like this only to give us something we already knew but for us old school fans there’s a certain nostalgia that makes us grin from ear to ear to know something in NuWho will finally be called “Part One” and “Part Two”.

Den of Geek LogoSimon Brew over at Den of Geek has posted a wonderful summary article outlining a hefty chunk of what has been gleaned from interviews and formal announcements, along with sneaky peeks from fellow fans and other sources, about David Tennant’s finale beginning next month. Radio Free Skaro’s own Chris was fortunate enough to have a pedantic hand in the piece, which quite obviously carries with it the heftiest of spoiler tags. Anyone who’s been fortunate enough to keep their head buried in the sand with respect to spoilers should most definitely NOT take a look.

The article can be found here, and it’s definitely worth reiterating the VERY spoilery nature of the piece.
