Episode 119: Like an Undercooked Cake (Season 15 Retrospective)

It’s our customary season retrospective, as we take a look back at Season 15. If you’ve been following the podcast as we’ve talked through each story, you’ll know that we’ve fully embraced our controversial era: disliking the stories that fandom loves, and loving the stories that the fandom hates – but how will they all stand-up to our usual blend of awards, metrics, and questions from our followers?

 

Join us as we talk about why Underworld is the best story of the season, which character Anthony desperately wants to punch, plenty about the horny prawn (of course!), the child-friendly decision to bring in a robot dog (yay K9!), and how we would have written out Leela in an ideal situation.

 

If you would like to watch along with us, you can find the entirety of the Season available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).
