David's still on his jollies around the world, so it's time for Tom to challenge David to once more determine which of these weird eighth doctor novels is a fake? If he can't, David will punish himself by buying something he hates in Japan to lug around with him forever more.

Has the Time Hotel been done before? Why does anything happen in these books? Who presents Sandi Tovskig's Richard Osman's House of Games? What sort of nemesis is Sabbath? What is that in Tom's cup? Answers to all these questions on this episode of Always Foolish.

Always Foolish is a positive Doctor Who podcast, about finding things we like in episodes we don't. We pick out our favourite bits for these stories, and suggest quick fixes to some common critiques.
