Andy and Alex are finally back reviewing classic Doctor Who. They love Who so much but the Troughton tale The Wheel in Space certainly tests their patience with its convoluted plot, questionable ethnic characters and pacing. However, they still find a lot to enjoy here and, as ever laugh a great deal about topics as diverse as ping pong, unbridled fury at Kit Pedler, Jamie's overreaction to fruit salad, and the fiendish nature of Nigel Robinson's quiz books.
Yes it's an all new series of World Enough and Time: the classic Doctor Who podcast that unites Andy and Alex despite the world that exists between them!

We've been on a bit more than a summer break, but we're back and its about (World Enough and) Time...
This month we go back to our roots and the very first story we covered on the podcast way back in 2017: Spearhead from Space. We archived that episode as the sound quality was terrible, but also because we didn't really do this seminal Pertwee classic justice.
This time around its a proper deep dive as we talk about stuff we've not thought about before, despite knowing this story inside out:
- The geography of the story: where is Oxley Woods in relation to Ashbridge Cottage Hospital and indeed AutoPlastics? And are any of those near Epping?
- How automated is the Plastics Factory and why is Ransome's doll so special?
- Is the 'Doctors Only' sign sexist?
- Is this the worst ever exhibition at Madame Tussauds?
- Does the Doctor drop calling Liz Doctor as a power move?
- And our own twist on 'Gay or European?': 'Auton or sweaty?'
All this, Louise Jameson, an argument about better stories than Spearhead, and a Companions quiz. What else could you possibly need?
We love you (and we're very glad to be back)!
