Jump on board the Campervan with James, Phil, and very special guest Steven for part three of our mini-series, Talkin Bout Regeneration. Those of you familiar with the iconic Radio Free Skaro podcast will recognise Steven’s silky voice and he waxes lyrical about his favourite regeneration story….nay, Doctor Who favourite story of all time! That’s right after they catch up on the news that came out of the premier of the War Between the Land and the Sea that took place earlier this week. Many thanks to Steven for joining the madness this week – we’ll be back after episodes one and two of The War Between airs next Sunday. Enjoy the show.

Happy Doctor Who Day, everyone! The Three Who Rule celebrate the 62nd birthday for our favourite television show as only Doctor Who fans can, by morosely speculating on the show's increasingly grim prospects in light of an ever-changing media landscape. Fun! Plus we look into Rachel Talalay's and Dalek 63-88's latest lovely Youtube videos, the newly released schedule for Surf and Turf, audio fun with The Wheel in Space on vinyl and various Big Finish bits and bobs, and Day Three of our Torchwood: Children of Earth retrospecticus!

The War Between the Land and the Sea is premiering Sunday, December 7! While that throws a wrench in our usually stable release plans, we're certain we can all cope through the first three weeks of December. In other news, the Three Who Rule calm the waters on missing episode rumblings, a follow-up on Tubi disintegrating Classic Doctor Who from its listings, Gallifrey One news, more staircase intrigues, and the Pondcast, a new podcast featuring none other than Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill reminiscing about their time on Doctor Who! But the real highlight is a descent into 2009 with the second part of our re-examination of Torchwood: Children of Earth!

The Three Who Rule take on the big questions this week, including whether or not to call the Sea Devils "Homo Aqua," possible BBC broadcast plans for The War Between the Land and the Sea, the existence of 4K 35mm transfers of telecined old TV shows, and most importantly the spreading media virus known as the Spiral Staircase, which has driven Steven further around the bend than usual! Plus Tubi intrigue regarding the status of Classic Doctor Who, Doctor Who Magazine issuing massive pieces about Carole Ann Ford and Terry Nation, and most importantly, the first of our five-part re-evaluation of Torchwood: Children of Earth!  Links: Support Radio Free Skaro on Patreon Mark Strickson announced as guest for Gallifrey One Creatures in TWBTLATS to be known as "Homo Aqua" UNIT quiz site reveals seven minutes of deleted scenes from Season 2 Doctor Who Magazine #623 Doctor Who Magazine Special Edition Doctor Who: Legends released Classic Doctor Who leaving US Tubi soon?

The moment has arrived! That is, an actual announcement of Doctor Who's future from the BBC (and not the outgoing Disney+) in the form of a last hurrah from Russell T Davies and Bad Wolf by way of a Christmas special in 2026, along with official confirmation of Turf and Surf hitting the iPlayer this Christmas and Disney+ in February. What does this portend for both the present and future of Doctor Who? The Three Who Rule put on their television detective hats and as usual solve nothing, as do many entertainment journalists including friend of the show Kyle Anderson, and lesser lights such as Variety, Deadline, and The Hollywood Reporter. Plus the usual Big Finish cover over-analysis, a smidgen of Can*Con, and the conclusion of our four-part Classic Series Commentary for "The Sun Makers"!

After a week of not-news coverage where Chris and Warren wandered the Earth and comedian, Who historian and legend Toby Hadoke ably guested, the Three Who Rule are reunited and tackle a shedload of news, including a scoop about The War Between the Land and the Sea airing at different times on the BBC and Disney+, Carole Ann Ford letting loose on the unused Season 2 finale of one Doctor Who, Jane Tranter explaining how TV works in 2025 (not so well!), tons of Big Finish, and most importantly, Part the Third of our Classic Series Commentary for The Sun Makers!  Links: Support Radio Free Skaro on Patreon SCOOP: BBC to air The War Between The Land and The Sea in December; Disney+ in February Carole Ann Ford describes unused Doctor Who finale scene Broadcast Now profile on Jane Tranter and Bad Wolf Jane Tranter addresses Doctor Who future (from Broadcast Now profile) BFI Screening of Blake's 7 Series 2 episodes on November 8, now sold out Character Options Doctor Who The Master and TARDIS Vortex Edition Figure Set Big Finish: The Worlds of Doctor Who – The War Master: His Greatest Trick out now Big Finish: The Third Doctor Adventures: Operation: Vengeance out now Big Finish: The Third Doctor Adventures: The Imposters due February 2026 Big Finish: The Fourth Doctor Adventures: The Ministry of Death due March 2026 Big Finish: The New Adventures of Bernice Summerfield: The Dalek Eternity 2 out now Big Finish: Star Cops: Conflict starts January 2026 BBC Archive: 1964: From Script to Screen – Making a Television Drama Nabil Shaban 1953-2025 Commentary: The Sun Makers Part Three

With the Three Who Rule down to one as both Warren and Chris are gallivanting in parts known and unknown this weekend, and with both the Doctor Who Season 13 Collection and the Blake's 7 Series 2 Collection releases imminent, this week Steven turns the entire episode to a chat with friend of the show Toby Hadoke! Toby recounts working on several extras included across both Blu-ray sets, and also the recent positive hubbub regarding missing Doctor Who episodes generates some excited chatter.

The potential imminent return of some missing Doctor Who episodes is top of mind this week, thanks to an interview with John Franklin, Sue Malden, and Professor Justin Smith from Film is Fabulous! on Tim Burrows' excellent Missing Episodes Podcast. The Three Who Rule preview the episode and talk of the “several missing episodes” that are in collections right now, as well as telling you how you can help the Film is Fabulous! project. Also, the Series 10 soundtrack is coming, Pete McTighe will be at Gallifrey One, and it's Part Two of our Classic Series Commentary for “The Sun Makers”!

Wild speculation abounds as rumours of the BBC and Bad Wolf “it's not you, it's me” -ing each other surface given the somewhat mid (as the kids say) reception to the latest iteration of Doctor Who, The Three Who Rule have theories a-plenty as to the show's next steps, anchored by nothing but their half-formed notions of media literacy (and some inside knowledge). Besides that, we have more exciting Big Finish previews, a Verity! mention on UK game show “The Chase” and the first part of our Class Series Commentary for seminal 1970s serial “The Sun Makers!” Links: Support Radio Free Skaro on Patreon Film is Fabulous now able to accept donations as a charitable trust Film is Fabulous on Doctor Who missing episodes Verity! appears as a clue to a question on The Chase BBC seeks to exit agreement with Bad Wolf?

In a show of mercy by the wayward forces of the universe, the news list is short and sweet this week as we delve into new Gallifrey One guests, Ncuti Gatwa's Scottish BAFTA nomination, our usual forensic examination of Big Finish covers, and our feature, an interview with Doctor Who writer Beth Axford about her latest work, the Official Doctor Who Quiz Book and well as her upcoming work of fiction, Doctor Who: Firefall!

A sad time in the world of Doctor Who as we mark the passing of writing titan Christopher H. Bidmead, and to join us in reflecting on both his work and life is Andrew Smith, writer of “Full Circle”, Big Finish dynamo, and friend of the esteemed Mr. Bidmead. Andrew looks back at getting his first break in TV due to Bidmead, working with him on behind the scenes features, and the man's general approach to Doctor Who, including an infusion of science and a real sense of continuity where none previously existed. We've also got the usual bevy of news including more vague handwaving on the future of Doctor Who, 1970's Cyberman dolly goodness, a new fancy tier for Britbox, and more!  Links: Support Radio Free Skaro on Patreon Second wave of Gallifrey One guest announcements begin with Jason Haigh-Ellery Gallifrey One 2026 Art Show Space Reservations now open ‘It's not a question of if Doctor Who returns, but when and how' – Jane Tranter Christopher H Bidmead died Aug 6 Steven Moffat tribute to Christopher H Bidmead The War Between the Land and the Sea available for preorder on Amazon UK, no release date Character Options Revenge of the Cybermen set due this month Character Options History of the Daleks Set #20 Just Sarah: More Than Fifty Years of a Doctor Who Companion due later this year, preorder available Big Finish: Doctor Who – The First Doctor Unbound: Knights of the Round TARDIS released Big FInish: Doctor Who – The Fourth Doctor Adventures: The Last Queen of the Nile released Big Finish: UNIT – Brave New World: Knightfall due Mar 2026 BritBox added a Premier tier with 4K and other perks, $150/yr in Canada Final Week for Graeme Burk's The Comics Code Kickstarter Tribute: Christopher Hamilton Bidmead Andrew Smith Season 18 Logopolis Castrovalva Frontios

Doctor Who has been erased from both HBO Max in the United States and now Prime in Canada, leading the Three Who Rule to speculate on the future of streaming with tangents into Star Trek, the likelihood of Billie Piper actually being the Doctor, spurious yet tantalizing missing episodes hints and nonsense, and Ncuti Gatwa on various chat shows not giving anything away about his time on Doctor Who!

In a week replete with San Diego Comic Con, a semi-invigorated BBC Shop, and a SDCC-adjacent UNIT Black Archive pop-up, you would think there would be more Doctor Who news to cogitate about this week, but you would in fact be wrong!
