Hurtling back in time to November 1988, our 23rd episode sees us tackle the controversial 25th anniversary story Silver Nemesis and ask ourselves whether the poor reputation of the story is fair. Along the way we ask A LOT of questions such as: Why is Ace so scared after a picnic?Who planted the gas canisters?Who lit all the candles in the crypt?Why does anyone ever trust the Cybermen?Did the Doctor really kickstart both the First and Second World Wars?andWhat the heck is anyone's plan in this story?We decide that you can ride a horse through this story's plotholes, but there is some debate as to whether we can do it in the same time it takes to get to Windsor from London! Elsewhere we have a quiz about unmade Troughton tales in which Alex must decide 'Trought-on' or 'Trought-off' and Andy has a prescient moment when he predicts the appearance of the Cailleach/crows in a future Season 12 episode before Praxeus aired. All this and Nazis, Kellman's hair, unadulterated hatred of jazz, and Alex's tenuous and entirely untrue Silver Nemesis claim to fame. Enjoy.

We love you all.Andy & Alex xxx
