Updated my review. For two reasons.
1. You’ve stopped doing the podcast, which is disappointing
&
2. You invited Chris Chibnall on one of the episodes. That man ruined Doctor Who by going woke with DEI & ESG hiring practices and destroying the canon, by ruining the characters backstory. The Doctor should never has been a woman. RIP Doctor Who.
So for those two reasons, I’ve had to knock a couple of stars off. But apart from that, there’s nothing better than learning more about something you... more
Shame that they finished off a great series with such a badly recorded finale.
Eleanor Gray is a fantastic knowledgeable guest: I’m going to miss this pod.
I had to turn off the recent episode on Anthology 1 which was frustrating . I’m all for people with a sense of humour but one of the ladies in the show has the most annoying laugh ,, I mean laughing at her own jokes and no matter what the comment that stupid giggle , to the point where she was giving me a headache
This really is one of the very best Beatles podcasts! A great idea and great guests sharing the Fab love and much hilarity and a not a few touching moments. Very sorry this dream is over but in the end …. well you know the rest.
