With series 13 now over, it\u2019s time to have a look back at Doctor Who<\/a>\u2019s ambitious serialised run of episodes \u2013 in other words, let\u2019s get to the crux of Flux.<\/p>\n

In this week\u2019s Radio Times Doctor Who podcast<\/strong> we give our full review for Chris Chibnall and Jodie Whittaker\u2019s final series, discuss a few lingering issues and take a look ahead at what\u2019s next in the upcoming New Year\u2019s Day special.<\/p>

Is this really the best series Whittaker and Chibnall have made? Or did familiar issues scupper the six-part story from joining the pantheon of Who greats? Listen on to find out\u2026<\/p>\n

What else can I expect from episode 8?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alongside our series 13 review we share the latest news about Who festive special Eve of the Daleks, its intriguing time loop storyline and new details about the slightly different breed of Dalek faced by Jodie Whittaker, Mandip Gill, John Bishop, Adjani Salmon and Aisling Bea on January 1st.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s always good to delineate and make specific\u00a0the Daleks we meet at any point,\u201d series showrunner Chris Chibnall previously told Doctor Who Magazine. \u201cThese are the bronze Daleks, which we\u2019ve only really glimpsed in recent years.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut in this episode we have an execution squad, armed with rapid-fire, multi-blast weapons that make them even deadlier than standard Daleks.<\/p>

\u201cThis is the ultimate New Year\u2019s countdown \u2013 while you\u2019re stuck somewhere, with Daleks coming for you\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Plus, we opt for a special festive edition of our regular Controversial Question of the Week, namely: Was the BBC right to cancel the Doctor Who Christmas special? The answer may surprise you\u2026<\/p>\n
