"Time of the Daleks" Tabletop Adventure

Let's play a game!

The "Doctor Who" franchise offers many ways for Whovians to live out their own adventures in time and space at home - one of those is Gale Force Nine, Inc.'s "Time of the Daleks" board game. Jessica and Phillip start off as Doctors and must race against the Daleks to arrive on Gallifrey. Will they beat the Doctor's enemy? How many times will they regenerate? How often will they have to stop and read the directions??? (Don't worry, we edit those parts out) Let us know if you've played and how it turned out.

In their look into the TARDIS library, the couple look at the re-creation of "Mission to the Unknown" by the students and staff of the University of Central Lancashire. Check out their efforts here.

Jessica and Phillip have finished their first Blu-ray set of the classic "Doctor Who" era with Series 10. Not only does it contain the first multi-Doctor story with "The Three Doctors," but also has additional features and interviews with the actors, producers, and more who made this penultimate series of the Third Doctor era. From saying goodbye to Jo Grant to saying hello to the use of CSO (color separation overlay), there is a lot that sets this series apart. What is your favorite story in Series 10?

"Fugitive of the Judoon" Review

Not since the Series 12 opener "Spyfall" has an episode been so chock full of reveals.

What were your reactions to this episode?

"Nikola Tesla's Night of Terror" Review

Tesla. Edison. Animated steampunk corpses. Scorpion Queens. All that plus the Doctor and TARDIS fam converge in this turn-of-the-20th-century episode of monsters and discovery. This series has been full of guest stars, and this episode continues that trend - with a few alum from "Doctor Who" and its spin-offs showing up. Did Tesla carry this episode? Was the toothy villain (that's not Tim Shaw...) scary? Join the discussion, and let us know how this episode landed for you.
