Something Who

Episode 4: Beneath the Surface

Richard may have eaten too much rhubarb as he goes exploring tunnels with Paul and Giles. Then it's down to business as the three of them discuss the work of the two Chrises - Bidmead and Chibnall - Frontios and The Hungry Earth / Cold Blood. En route they manage to weave James Blunt, Brexit negotiations and washing powder into the conversation.

The opening music is from All I Wanna Do by Sheryl Crow and the closing music is from Georgia on My Mind by Ray Charles. 

Episode 3: Shoot for the Moon

After the Moonbase commander sets the Something Who team the challenge of recording an episode in an hour and a half to solve a strange illness that's affecting the UK, Richard Giles and Simon discuss the Season 4 Patrick Troughton story The Moonbase and Series 3's David Tennant story Smith and Jones. What could the linking theme be?

Contact the team on Twitter via @Something_Who, find additional content on our Something Who Youtube channel and note our very slight presence on Facebook.

The opening music is from Tipitina by Dr John and the uncredited snatch of music at the end is from Cup of Tea by Kacey Musgraves. 

Episode 2.5: What a Blinkin' Day

The Something Who crew are all on holiday, temporary hiatus or otherwise indisposed, so once his memory is restored, Richard invites Tim from The Doctor Who Grumpcast for a chat about the Season 10 Blu-Ray, Missing Episodes, Series 11 and, yes, a comparison of Day of the Daleks and Blink. Only question: is this Grumpcast X or Something Who 3? Neither - its Something Who 2.5!

13Cast Episode 7 - Talkin’ ’bout Resolution

Crowded TARDIS? More like crowded 13cast! Mike finally catches up with us and, after a Morecambe and Wise catchphrase competition, we discuss the New Year’s Day episode, Resolution. Given the early(ish) hour of recording, Paul still seems to be suffering from a bit of Temporal Drift, but at least the audio issues are behind us. And when we've finished with the episode itself, we make our own Doctor Who Resolutions. 13cast will return. Eventually.

13Cast Episode 6 - Battle-scarred

The Gremlins have got a tight grip on 13cast this week. Giles' PC didn't record the first half, Paul's PC decided to reboot at random intervals and Simon's microphone was a bit variable, so Richard may have sacked the lot of them. But despite this, we've got our review ready for The Battle of Ranskoor Av Kolos and our thoughts on the season as a whole.

13Cast Episode 5 - On Reflection

It's Advent and the 13cast crew ponders the move of Doctor Who from Christmas to New Year. Then it's review time for The Witchfinders and It Takes You Away, before a debate on the nature of Doctor Who and whether the last episode is an allegory for the latest series. Finally our Christmas lists.

Note: Simon's audio was badly affected by interference. We've done our best to edit round this, but there is distortion on his contributions and some have been lost.

13Cast Episode 4 - Bubble Trouble

13cast wonders - just why is there a 10 minute colour animation of Wheel in Space for Missing Believed Wiped at 25? Then the crew returns to the task of reviewing Demons of the Punjab and Kerblam! with diversions into Puncast and Latincast. And the famous sweet Yorkshire staple of Rhubarb. Which may, or may not be connected to Kerblam!

13Cast Episode 3 - Anamorphic in the UK

After the 13cast crew perform their tribute / insult to the 4 Yorkshiremen, it's time to deliver their reviews of Arachnids in the UK and The Tsuranga Conundrum, with a brief diversion into BakeOffcast. And after a couple of positive episodes, there's a bit more grumpiness this time.

13Cast Episode 2 - Sit Down

After Richard finds out he's on a different wavelength from the rest of the 13cast crew, he's also a bit hazy on the nature of Rosa Parks' protest. The team then give their reviews of The Ghost Monument and Rosa, including chapter 3 of anamorphic lenses. Keep listening to the end for the first installments of Masterchefcast and SkyAtNightcast. We also break it to Simon that Jane Horrocks is from Lancashire.

13Cast Episode 1 - Sheffield Steel

After watching Doctor Who for over 45 years, Richard finally has a Doctor that sounds like him. Well, a little bit. Since none of them could get a ticket to the all-star Sheffield premiere, he's invited the 13cast crew round to discuss the debut of the Yorkshire Doctor in a story set in Yorkshire with someone who was born and brought up in Yorkshire. Yorkshire.
