Episode 25: Kinda

Doctor Who: the World Enough and Time podcast

In their 25th episode Alex & Andy hurtle back to 1982 to the jungle paradise of Deva Loka where mystery boxes shouldn't be opened, you can't mend people and Nerys Hughes is practically perfect in every way. In Kinda they find much to enjoy and reflect on its first broadcast in 1982 and its repeat in 1983 as well as how they feel it stands up today. There's even a recording of a 4-year-old Alex singing along to theme tune and taking the piss out of Hindle which is worth the admission price* alone. (*Our podcast is entirely free!) Along the way they share their experiences of Doctor Who fandom and conventions. decide that Buddhism is the best religion, slag off Lou Beale and make passing references to all manner of televisual gems, including Play School, Timeslip and The Adventure Game. All this, plus the usual quiz and a visit from the Cailleach which prompts praise of Series 12, especially of the Timeless Children finale. This bumper 2-hour episode was recorded well before the world as we currently know it, so its wonderfully absent of you know what talk. Stay safe everyone. We love you xxx
