About this episode
Doctor Who returns! Two new episodes dropped this weekend as we enter both the wacky madcap hijinks of "Space Babies" and the outright lunacy of "The Devil's Chord"! What did the Three Who Rule think of CG baby mouths, Jinkx Monsoon vamping all over the place, Beatles instrument accuracy and more? Listen to our multi-hour discourse but know this: the twist at the end is that song isn't very good. Plus the media onslaught continues with Ncuti Gatwa on Canadian radio, RTD dropping secret controversies in Men's Journal, Big Finish fun and golden sonic screwdriver tat, and more! Next week, we see how it all goes…Boom!
