We\u2019re back!<\/p>\n

After a long absence for both our podcast and Doctor Who<\/a> in general, we\u2019ve returned for a one-off episode to take a look at\u2026 er\u2026 a new one-off episode. Specifically, of course, we\u2019re giving our verdict on Legend of the Sea Devils<\/a>, the new Doctor Who Easter special that happens to serve as Jodie Whittaker\u2019s penultimate adventure.<\/p>\n

Was this a festive treat to savour alongside your mountain of chocolate, or less than eggs-celent? Were the new Sea Devils a roaring triumph, or a damp squib? Find out what we thought by listening to the full podcast below, or on whichever podcast provider takes your fancy at this given moment.<\/p>\n\n<p>We also delve into the question of the Doctor and Yaz, look ahead to the centenary special this autumn, and ponder the age-old question: which is the best season of Doctor Who? By which we mean, spring or autumn?<\/p>\n<p>All that, <em>and<\/em> we caught up with episode co-writer Ella Road, who revealed the unusual way she was inducted into the world of Who.<\/p>\n<ul><li><a href=\""https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/doctor-who-jodie-whittaker-final-episode-trailer-newsupdate\/"\">Doctor Who trailer revealed for Jodie Whittaker\u2019s epic final episode<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\""https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/doctor-who-ace-tegan-newsupdate\/"\">Doctor Who confirms return of classic companions<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><p>\u201cI basically chatted to them on the phone, and they were like, \u2018Are you in?

So what\u2019s the story that I\u2019m writing?\u2019 And they were like, \u2018We don\u2019t have a story. We want you to come and make it up.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo there I was, suddenly on a train to Wales, to sit in Chris\u2019s living room for three days, and come up with some ideas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Altogether, we hope it\u2019s a Doctor Who podcast that was worth the wait.
