“That’s the only sad thing. I want to know what happens next.”

It’s the end of an era and the end of this podcast: time for us to get together on folding chairs in a church hall somewhere with everyone we ever met to talk about our adventures with The Power of the Doctor.

And time for a last farewell. Thank you all.

The Whittaker era is heading towards its inexorable end and dragging this podcast along with it, so it’s time to take a quick penultimate break in nineteenth-century China, where we watch a lot of villagers being killed, a statue breaking open or something, a mysterious sea monster with no apparent plot function, and the non-awaited return of some rubber masks from the 1970s. And, of course, the relationship between the Doctor and Yaz runs into serious fluogeomagnetic issues.

Here’s a link to Brendan’s YouTube series A Walk to Work with Whittaker: his take on this episode will appear some time tomorrow (or today if you’re in a different time zone, I guess).
