Episode 81: A Good Man Goes to War
Demons run when a good man goes to war. Ashford loves that line so much. Yes, Straight Outta Gallifrey is covering the Steven Moffat mid series 6 finale, A Good Man Goes to War. Plots are unraveled and tightened at the same time. Matt Smith is at his best in this episode, the pictures are pretty, and we get a feature by the wonderful Alex Kingston. What's not to like? Well, Ashford has some concerns, but he still believes this is one of the era's best episodes. Siskoid from Siskoid's Blog of Geekery joins the discussion as well. What do...

This first, on air, T.A.R.D.I.S. team are separated quite a bit, covering more ground of this landscape where the Aztecs resided. Was Barbara right for trying to change this culture with her relatively modern, English ways? Perhaps stepping back and allowing History to take its course is not the right thing to do?

How does a podcast talk about a serial of Doctor Who where the actual story doesn't exist? In a word. Easily. Ashford read the novelization to prep before the show, while Siskoid, of the Siskoid Blog of Geekery, revisited the reconstruction. One can not go wrong either way. Ashford hopes that one day this seven part serial can be found with its lavish costumes, exotic locations, and realistic angst and peril.

Quite stunned by the fact that she enters a police box, they are accosted by the Doctor. And this is when our adventure begins. Waris Hussein did a superlative job of directing this...
