  • Summary

  • The Twelfth Doctor once said Hate is always foolish, and love is always wise.Always Foolish is a positive Doctor Who podcast, exploring the good side of 'bad' episodes. Or episodes people think are bad.


    We'll be tackling negative discourse head-on by discussing where these stories fall down, how they could be improved, and what's actually pretty darn great about them, thank you very much. And along the way there'll be news, impressions, and many, many tangents.

    On this episode we're seeing what lies beneath Starship UK as we explore The Beast Below, Steven Moffat's least favourite Steven Moffat episode.


    Has this episode become more relevant after 10 years? Is this the best dark fairy tale who has done? How does a winder kiss his wife? Is this a story about optimism or cynicism? What do people think the creepy poems are for? Answers to all these questions on this episode of Always Foolish.


    Always Foolish is a positive Doctor Who podcast, about finding things we like in episodes we don't. We pick out our favourite bits for these stories, and suggest quick fixes to some common critiques.

    Apr 29 2024

    On this episode, we discuss the newly revealed episode titles for series 14 (SPACE BABIES) and give some of our predictions. Plus David has some behind the scenes scoops from Doctor Who Magazine.


    Why did Russell go with Space Babies? Why does it make people so angry? Why does Steven Moffat love one word titles? How long is a yard anyway? Is the British Empire the true villain? Often yes. But in Doctor Who? Maybe! Answers to these questions, and more in this episode.

    Apr 21 2024

    In this extra episode I break down my favourite Turlough stories from across TV and audio. Why? Because I am better at procrastinating important things than you. Also because Turlough deserves more love!
