We see The Sci-Fi Christian, in all its iterations, as being about the collision between faith and nerdom. We believe that good genre fiction is about more than just entertainment. We seek to engage with the themes and philosophies behind our favorite stories, wrestling with the big ideas within speculative fiction. We’re unabashedly nerdy and unabashedly Christian. Even if your faith background differs from ours, we look forward to interacting with you at The Sci-Fi Christian!

It's back to those heady days of 1986 where news of Bonnie Langford's casting devastated Andy, and even 8-year-old Alex understood what a terrible threat to Doctor Who this irrepressible endlessly tap-dancing stage-school screamer posed. But what did they make of Mel's debut then and now? Alongside this debate (there is no debate dear listener just resigned horror) they consider the purpose of a Judas Goat, the satiable curiosity of the Elephant's Child and that playground favourite 'On with the Motley'. Oh do f*** off Pip 'n' Jane. As well as musing on the Hyperion 3's curious policy of incinerating all laundry and the miraculous properties of headphones that have not been plugged in, the Doctor's perplexing choice of this adventure as a defence of his peripatetic peregrinations is unequivocally interrogated. See! Anyone can use a f***ing thesaurus. Elsewhere, Alex still has trouble understanding what a 'bridge' is in sci-fi, we receive a fleeting visit from the Cailleach and the Wee Papa Girl Rappers, and Alex subjects Andy to another bout of his favourite quiz game (not his favourite quiz game). Entirely unavoidable swearing throughout. Next Time: The Masque of Mandragora
