Today, Stephen is delighted to be joined by friend of the pod, Ianto! We discuss the second 60th anniversary special, Wild Blue Yonder. Ianto has been a Doctor Who fan since childhood, one of his earliest memories being dressing as a cardboard Dalek for a village gala (swipe to see!). He properly got trapped in the vortex at the age of 15 when the show relaunched in 2005, and cannot wait for the new, new era! All links: https://linktr.ee/abouttimecast

Nick enjoyed creating his own fan series of Doctor Who, including an audio play with Stephen playing...
