PAUL: What shall we talk about in this podcast, Geoff? We've literally nothing to go on right now. No new Doctor Who for ages.
GEOFF: CBA
PAUL: Ooh! Cybermen, Banshees and Autons?
GEOFF: No
PAUL: [search request: 'CBA'. Search returns results on 'CBA - acronym, vernacular usage] Oh... um... right.. er... anyway-
GEOFF: Tennant's coming back. That's the rumour.
PAUL: What? Seriously? OK... er... let's start with that then, and see what occurs!
That's what happened. Honestly. We started talking about the rumours regarding the return of you-know-who to the show and then at around 7 minutes, Geoff cheered up and all kinds of topics flew across our virtual studio.
Put your seatbelts on, listeners! You don't want to miss this ride!

As the deadly DALEKS finalise their plans to assassinate the High Council of the Time Lords - presumably as part of the build up to the Time War but actually who really knows? - hosts Paul and Geoff unleash their own weapon: the very first figure set from Character Options featuring TEGAN JOVANKA!
Complete with an EXPLODED DALEK, a massive gun and a Dalek canister, this new Vortex Edition set from CO launches with impeccable timing - for us anyway, given that we were watching Resurrection of the Daleks, Tegan's poignant exit epsiode.
So join us as we take a closer look at the figure set, pose Tegan in a variety of ways and play around with her massive gun.
In-between all that, we try and find time to talk about the story we're supposed to be watching.

It's the space year 1984 and the DALEKS are back in London! This time it's all very secret, until a gun battle erupts in the heart of the city's rundown Docklands area between some dudes in future space-wear and a bunch of very SINISTER London Police.
Meanwhile, the TARDIS is being pulled through a time corridor and the Doctor, Turlough and TEGAN hang onto every piece of furniture they can as the time machine spins out of control!
Why are Daleks appearing now?
Who are the space dudes and why does one of them look like a very Likely Lad?
Why does everyone start acting weirdly whenever they get shot by a Dalek?
Who is the prisoner on the space station the Daleks seem eager to get hold of?
What is the body count by the end of the episode?
Why is Turlough lurking and when will Tegan get out of bed?
Was Dirty Den really serving time at Her Majesty's pleasure..?
And, basically, what the Davros is going on in this classic tale from Peter Davison's final season as the Fifth Doctor?
Join us and watch along in real time as we try to make sense of RESURRECTION OF THE DALEKS- a fast-paced, action-packed story which sees the departure of Tegan and the Daleks returning to Doctor Who in their own adventure, the first since 1979, in explosive style!

The Doctor receives a text message from an unknown caller and follows it up in the TARDIS to arrive in war torn Afghanistan. However, no sooner have they stepped out to admire the view when both the Doctor and Yaz are pulled into a dimensional rift that deposits them on a world called 'Rock', upon which a brutal war is being fought between the humans and the monstrous BANSHEES! 
Listen up as Geoff and Paul dive deep into the latest 13th Doctor audio adventure from the realms of BIG FINISH. With contributions from our very own Thirteenth Doctor, Katie Haynes! 

We discuss:
Ride or Die's plot and character development
Overarching themes of warfare, complicity, and morality
Yaz's journey
The symbolism of the Banshees
The implications of corporate involvement in conflict. 
AND who (or what) is the Tourist? Do we know more or less by the time the story ends...?
