  • DWAZ #85 - SEASON 2 WRAP-UP
    Jun 26 2025

    This week Ashley, Josh and Alan revisit the second and final season featuring Ncuti Gatwa as the Doctor and reflect on the season overall. What were some of the great, good and less-good moments? How do we rate each episode differently than we did upon first viewing in light of the season as a whole? How does this season reflect the era overall (as short as it is)?

    First, though, we dig into the news, and talk about the trailer for The War Between the Land and the Sea, an upcoming Big Finish release featuring Sarah Jane and Harry, a new book project from Sophie Aldred, and a revival of the Eighth Doctor Adventures from the original Wilderness Years!

    This week we wrap up Season 2 / Series 15 / Season 41 with a review of the season finale, "The Reality War."

  • DWAZ #83 - "WISH WORLD"
    May 29 2025

    The season is rapidly careening towards its end, so this week we're reviewing the first half of the 2-part finale, "Wish World," and ..... this one really came close to breaking us! After a stellar season, we really found this one frustrating. RTD is RTDing hard, y'all. This is probably our most heated discussion yet!

    First, though we have some quick news about the new spin-off series The War Between the Land and the Sea and an upcoming Big Finish release that we're looking forward to!

    We really want to hear what YOU thought of this episode! If you've got thoughts about "Wish World" that you'd like to share with us, just by email us at doctorwhoatoz@gmail.com or dropping a comment on our socials!

But okay, yeah, we also talk about the surprise appearance of [REDACTED] and the unexpected bi-generation of [REDACTED]!

    May 15 2025

    This week we steer our TARDIS to a seemingly unassuming barber shop in Lagos, Nigeria for "The Story and the Engine", a weird tale about a god, safe spaces, the power of storytelling, and a huge mechanical space spider. It's Episode 5 of Season 2 and it's written by Inua Ellams and directed by Makalla McPherson.

    This week Josh, Ashley and Alan dissect the newest episode of Doctor Who Season 2 - "Lucky Day" written by Pete McTighe and directed by Peter Hoar.

  • DWAZ #78 - S2E2 "LUX"
    Apr 24 2025

    This week we're "beamin' at ya" a day early with our review of this week's episode, "Lux," the second episode of Season 2 (Series 15), written by Russell T Davies. In it, an animated character called Mr. Ring-a-Ding comes to life in Miami 1952. But Ring-a-Ding is so much more than just a character from a film short!

    This is an unedited conversation between three friends and Doctor Who fans in which we discuss the episode in depth and speculate wildly on some crazy theories we've come up with!
