Tom and Louis met to discuss the overall quality of Doctor Who's seventh series, but were derailed briefly by a plague of missing episode rumors (skip to 18:44 if you don't want to hear about those). Tom waxed vitriolic about The Power of Three, while Louis appraised the season's worthiness as a farewell to Matt Smith. All this and tangents!

After what seems like a lifetime, Phil and Paul finally return to their series 3 retrospective with Daleks In Manhattan.  Has time been kind to this story or is it still the big mess that they remembered?  Rest assured, both Paul and Phil give a reasoned critique but during the course of their dissection, Phil puts on a showgirl voice, Paul manages to insult Wales and quickly backtracks and the whole conversation degenerates into hardcore pornography.

And in the news this week, the saga of the recovered (or not recovered) missing episodes is discussed, Roath Lock will get Royal patronage, Matt Smiths thank you to cast, crew and fans and last and by no means least, Omega's Tat Corner makes it's triumphant return wherein you will hear the phrase "ring hanger".

Waffle On about The Carry On Films.

Its a long episode but when you have a franchise that has 31 films its a bit hard to fit it all in 60 mins so you get an extra half an hour as a treat

Oh...here we are again. Torchwood. Miracle Day. It's been two years, but Cheryl never saw it...till now. And since we've been talking about Jack being immortal it's only fitting that we torture - erm, make - uh, let Cheryl watch it now so she can give her review with Daisy, who is actually re-reviewing this for you.

Episode 89: Jack in the USA

It has been one crazy week in the world of Doctor Who, with rumours of scores of missing Doctor Who episodes being found, then not found, then found again, then, finally, all of them declared not missing but destroyer. The end. Is it, though? The wait for a new Doctor will also have to wait awhile, so there is very little in the way of solid news to discuss this week, but that didn't stop the Three Who Rule! One thing is for sure, though - Radio Free Skaro will be at Westercon 66 in Sacramento in a couple weeks, and the convention organizers Kevin Roche and Andy Tremblay are here to tell you all about it. It's looking like it might be an interesting summer in this, the 50th anniversary year of Doctor Who!

With all of these mundane little stories we're covering, you're no doubt saying, "But Sean and Steve, when are you going to tackle something really classic, like 'City of Death' or 'Fear Her'?" (That second one was a joke.) Wait no more: in this episode we discuss the 1975 six-parter from Tom Baker's first season as the Doctor, featuring Sarah Jane and Harry. That's right, it's finally time for "Genesis of the Daleks"! If you don't like this story, we'll have to find out what's wrong with you...by autopsy.

Oh, there's also this little bit of news to discuss about Matt Smith leaving.

Like us on Facebook, email us at tardistavern@gmail.com, (we're especially fond of audio feedback, since we often get too drunk to read emails out loud, and follow Sean on Twitter via @tardistavern. He's a bit slow on Twitter nowadays, however, since he's given up drinking during the week.

Siobhan celebrates six years of podcasting!

Talking of 'six', THE Colin Baker gets scrutinised with an intense scrute.

Sinister scowls.

And in the end... WHERE ARE MY DRAGONS??!

Sometimes you just need to take a break and relax, more so after the heavy topics in our last show. So to unwind a bit we're taking a moment to look at The Lodger, where the Eleventh Doctor has to try and pretend to be normal while sharing a flat with an unsuspecting human. Not really the sort of blending in this Doctor is known for.
