"You're liable to wake up Old Nick going that deep!"

And imagine old Nick's horror when he woke up after a BBC stag do and found that someone had given him a comedy eye-patch and a joke shop scar.

But it's not just the Brig who's had an unsympathetic makeover in Inferno's alt-right universe. Cuddly Sergeant Benton is now brutal bastard Benton and lovely Liz has adopted a nasty wig and an equally nasty attitude. Professor Stahlman, of course, is equally gittish wherever you find him, but Greg Sutton's sexist tendencies have been crushed under the fascist jackboot - and he seems even less likely to achieve penetration with this particular Petra.

Throw in some technicians in wolf's clothing (and Christmas cracker teeth), a soldier shooting himself off a gasometer and lashings of automatic door porn, and we have something of a great big melting pot.

But do Jim and Martin think Inferno burns brightly or does it feel like the end of the world?

Find out here.

“A Town Called Mercy” Review

We’re heading to the Wild West this week for the 11th Doctor’s Western themed adventure and a big moral decision sits on the Doctor’s shoulders. Does this one give us enough of a rootin’ tootin’ time or fall flat faced in the sand?

Thank you guys, another jam packed show and our last one until series 10 starts on Saturday. Next week we will, obviously, be reviewing The Pilot and we’d love your thoughts on that. Until then have a great week and remember – Allons-y!

The wait is over as Doctor Who Series 10 begins on Saturday, April 15, 2017. We announce our series review schedule of what appears to be a MASTERful final series for showrunner Steven Moffat and for Peter Capaldi's twelfth Doctor. We discuss Marvel Comics' X-Men Gold, Thor: Ragnarok, Spider-Man Homecoming, and revisit a local comics shop. All this plus announcements for WHOLanta and Southern Geek Fest 2! Hosted by Kyle Jones and Clarence Brown.

Scott and Steve catch up with their exercise regimes then talk about some of the latest sci-fi news, including a claim from Scott that could end up bringing the podcast to an early close. After that the grouchy old geeks go all Room 101 and decide which shows it's time to consign to history and cancel from ever making a new episode.

Two topics up for review on this week’s episode.

First it’s the Third Doctor mini-series from Titan Comics. We tackle this story arc featuring the Third Doctor, Jo Grant, and a whole host of other familiar faces featured in era.

Then, another Big Finish audio drama from the Main Range. This time it’s the Sixth Doctor and Evelyn story The Assassin in the Limelight.

Plus, news of the week, including a fairly “SPOILERY” one, so be warned.

And, of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!

MUTTER'S SPIRAL Podcast is back, just in time to preview SERIES 10 of DOCTOR WHO (the final Peter Capaldi series, *heavysadness*)! Join John and I as we delve into talking about what we can look for in Series 10 - episode by episode, storyline by storyline. We will talk about the upcoming debut of Pearl Mackie as Bill, and how Bill will fit on the show. We talk about the return of many old foes (including some "surprise" ones that have been revealed to the public already).

We do talk in detail about each episode, so if you like to stay away from knowing too much, be forewarned. But, if you're like us and love to speculate and anticipate, then this will be right up your trap street!

We will also discuss the return of Classic Doctor Who episodes to American streaming as BritBox debuts stateside, and we will discuss the sad passing of a great actor, Tim Pigott-Smith, from the classic era (and one of John's favorite stories, "The Masque of Mandragora"). Trivia will return next week with the episode recaps!

We are VERY excited for Series 10, and we're excited to be back discussing them with each other and with you, dear listener! We hope you enjoy!!

It's audio commentary time! Yes, after nearly a year, the trio of Phil, Paul and Tony reconvene to talk and drink all the way through both episodes of The Rescue! Marvel once again at Tony's spurious facts based on the day of the story's original broadcast, which causes Phil to become a little worried! And at some point along the way, they also talk about The Rescue!

And in the news, Tim Piggott-Smith dies age 70, the news that Bill Potts is Doctor Who's first gay companion and a spoiler that hit the press that is so spoilery, Phil and Paul won't even discuss it!
