Doctor Who: Watchers in the Fourth Dimension
TV & Film:TV Reviews
We’re finally getting started on the legendary Season 14, as we discuss the debut serial, The Masque of Mandragora. Will it live up to the expectations that the received wisdom of fandom has set for the season, or will the season opener prove to be a disappointment? As always, you’ll have to listen to find out!
Join us as we discuss whether this story would still work without Federico, what we wish Part One had been, the new credits font, the new TARDIS control room, dimensionally transcendental pockets, the appropriate length of recaps, and the various callbacks to the past throughout the story...
