  • Insulting to its audience

    This show has one great host (Dave) and another who regularly insults the audience, talking down to them, engaging in worthless name-dropping, and sharing opinions that demonstrate a significant amount of ignorance. With so many podcast options, I’d avoid this one.

  • Love the show

  • A truly first rate podcast by two Doctor Who fans who really love the show.

    I discovered this podcast within the last year and it has become a firm favourite. The thoughtful discussions about the show are well balanced and also highlight the best aspects of the programme that we have grown up with and admire so much. Dave’s love of the Hartnell era and Rob’s appreciation of Davison is great to hear for an old school fan like me. The list makers episodes are always really interesting as they show that everyone has a different take on what makes the programme tick, what w... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Open Mic (Ask Us Anything 2026)
Q: Is there a podcast you use for inspiration or based yourself on when you started?
I think it would be something like Rebel Force Radio, which is a long-running Star Wars podcast.
INTERVIEW: Doctor Who Myths and Legends: The Reeltime Pictures Story
Q: Did any myths or misconceptions about Reeltime get debunked in your research?
Yes, one was about 'Return to Devil's End' starting out as a drama; it was confirmed that this wasn't true.
INTERVIEW: Doctor Who Myths and Legends: The Reeltime Pictures Story
Q: How do you think Reeltime managed to maintain that working relationship with actors, writers, and other creatives without the BBC backing?
It was likely easier because they were early organized fans who genuinely cared about the show, allowing them to foster connections with those involved in creating Doctor Who.
INTERVIEW: Doctor Who Myths and Legends: The Reeltime Pictures Story
Q: What drew you to Realtime Pictures as a subject worthy of an entire book?
It started with my previous book where I got to know Keith Barnfather, and his insights sparked my interest in delving deeper into Realtime's story.
Rob and Dave Unplugged 4
Q: What would give you joy to the world in this year's Christmas special?
I would like to see a good adventure that doesn't feel the need to be saying every five minutes, don't forget it's a Christmas special.
