We are all over the map this week! Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and

Liz as we discuss all sorts of interesting Doctor Whogoodness.

First, we dump our "happy thing" segment and break our no-news

rule because the announcement of a new companion is a Big Deal!We're excited about having a new face in the TARDIS, but the levelof excitement varies wildly between Verities.

Next, we continue our run through classic season 1 with "The

Edge of Destruction". It's a fascinating set piece that delves intothe characters of our first TARDIS team in a spooky and oftendisturbing way. Chillingly delightful!

Finally, we touch on our first missing story, "Marco Polo".

There are oodles of ways to consume this one, and we all did itdifferently. We compare various methods and talk about the storyitself. Opinions vary on this one even more than they do on the newcompanion.

Oh, and in addition to all that, we're doing another

Verity! GIVEAWAY! If you need some cool fan merch,Redbubble is the place for you, and we're giving away a $25 giftcertificate.
