 Galactic Poetry Slam | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 28:13

The Doctor may have known Shakespeare, but our attempts to play a trivia game with Whovian Limericks would have the Bard seeking an unhealthy dose of retcon.

 Torchwood Rewatch: Sleeper (S2E2) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 31:04

With the team now working more effectively and completely than any time in Season 1, we're handed a rather overt, at times obvious investigation into a crime that could have led to more, but didn't.

 Classic Rewatch: Nightmare of Eden | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 36:40

With an unusual foray into an intergalactic crime drama rather than a space mystery, Season 17's fourth story installment leaves us a little unimpressed.

 The Runaway TARDIS (Pop Classics) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 10:14

As a little bonus episode for our younger listeners, Keir is joined in the GPR studios by a 3-year old book critic to review the newest kids' book publication from Pop Classics & Quirk Books.

 Torchwood Rewatch: Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang (S2E1) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 46:08

Season 2 of Torchwood crashes in like a left hook, and even the return of fearless leader Jack can't fully contain the shockwave that is Time Agent John Hart.

 Classic Rewatch: The Creature From the Pit | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 39:30

Our tin dog sounds a little off as we land on the jungle planet of Chloris in this Fourth and Romana story, but that's not the only thing that feels odd.

 Quantine Productions | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 34:54

We take a couple of turns around the studio table wondering what a complete Doctor Who story production would turn out like if the limitations and complications of stay-at-home did their worst. From DIY sets and sound effects, to last-minute recasting and other mishaps, it's just the level of wonkiness that gets the 'GPR slightly distorted stamp of approval'.

 Torchwood Rewatch: End of Days (S1E13) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 53:08

When a few of our Torchwood Hub 3 team declare mutiny over their dear Captain in the Season 1 finale, sunny happy Cardiff pays the price in the form of really unpleasant overcast skies.

 Classic Rewatch: City of Death | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 57:58

With a bottle of wine, a chicken egg, a clenched fist, and a famous painting of a nonplussed Italian noblewoman, we head to Paris for what is undoubtedly our favorite classic era story. From the 'we can't believe it was written this quickly' backstory, to the snappy and smart Douglas Adams dialogue, to the over-the-top but still delightful performances, we agree that the only thing we'd want to change about it is the duration. We'd want more.

 The Rumor Mill | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 30:11

Given a randomly drawn set of heroes, adversaries, and locations, we play a few rounds of creating off-the-cuff episode synopses that -- while possibly ridiculous -- have some definite 'watchability'.

 Torchwood Rewatch: Captain Jack Harkness (S1E12) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 40:08

The Cardiff Rift gets uppity, courtesy of a mysterious cravat-sporting caretaker with a penchant for Polaroids and time-tinkering, taking Jack and Tosh to 1941 and a very awkward military meet-up.

 Classic Rewatch: Destiny of the Daleks | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 51:04

With equal parts psychopathy and sarcasm, we drill into Season 17 with Terry Nation's final story contribution to Doctor Who, and the full-time arrival of Lalla Ward as Romana.

 Fire, Retire, Admire | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 35:15

It's game night in the GPR studio, and we're taking trio of Doctor Who characters to decide who stays, who goes, and who gets burned from the record.

 Torchwood Rewatch: Combat (S1E11) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 42:35

We step into the ring with guest Julie this week, returning at long last to our Torchwood progress to discuss Noel Clarke's contribution to the first season. (Yes, THAT Noel Clarke.)

 Classic Rewatch: The Armageddon Factor | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 48:31

Our good friend Drew from "Who and Company" joins us to finish assembly of the Key to Time, and wrap up the sixteenth season of Doctor Who.
