Film Club Duet 31: Superman and Thunderbolts*

It's Season 2 of our own, rebooted Doctor Who, and someone else's turn to have a go at creating a themed series of episodes telling a compelling, coherent story out of the concept of only remaking the stories of the past

Blue Box 179: The Death of Doctor Who

Music Club 28: David Bowie

It was the Daleks' first appearance in Steven Moffat's Doctor Who and the first time Matt Smith's Doctor had come face to face with them - and it was very much Amy's first time too - but Victory of the Daleks has always divided opinions. The question is, after fifteen years would that still be the case?

Presented by J.R. Southall, with Matt Barber, Ryan Blake and Simon Brett

Who Review Extra 50: Victory of the Daleks

There can't be many horror films where it's the Japanese who've remade it in their own language rather than the other way around, but the original Cube is one. We take a look to see how it stands up nearly thirty years later

Presented by J.R. Southall, with Ryan Blake and Dylan Rees

Film Club Lite 78: Cube (1997)

Broader and deeper than just Doctor Who Main episodes: talking about Doctor Who so you don't have to Film Club: reviewing and contextualising a popular movie or film director TV Club: ditto but TV Film Club Lite: focussing on a particular movie for a shorter, more focussed review Music Club: the hosts talk about artists that have been influential in their lives Who Review Extra: choosing an older Doctor Who story for the shorter review routine Desert Planet Picks: once in a while, a special guest chooses the eight items they'd take with them, if they were about to be marooned on a desert planet
