The Ninth Doctor appreciation podcast discussion
It's that time of week again, Kasterborites, where James McLean, Christian Cawley and Brian Terranova pluck one of the many subjects of Doctor Who and offer their thoughts about it. This time around, we're dedicating an entire podKast (with a "K") to the legendary, oft-overlooked yet hugely important Ninth Doctor, as played by the statuesque Christopher Eccleston.

The UNIT PodKast
You lucky people! Not content with gushing over Season 7 in last week's podKast, this time around Christian Cawley and James McLean discuss the wonder that is UNIT, that Dad's Army-esque band of brothers operating out of an ever-moving HQ, combating alien attacks with or without the help of the Doctor. From The Web of Fear through to Planet of the Dead, we (mostly) avoid the UNIT dating issues...

When a Doctor Who Costume Goes Wrong
What happens when to all intents and purposes, it seems that a Doctor Who costume is just wrong? This week's Kasterborous podKast (with a "K") turns its attention to the matter of the Doctor's sartorial elegance (or in some cases, lack of...) There isn't a single incarnation of the friendly Time Lord who hasn't raised eyebrows with his choice of attire. While some choices have been great, oth...

Should the BBC take scheduling Doctor Who more seriously?
We're a little earlier with this week's podKast - which is just as well as we're talking about some pretty topical stuff, namely the questions over the scheduling of Doctor Who Series 7, the coming BAFTA special achievement award for Steven Moffat and Kasterborous' own review marathon in which we cover every serial from An Unearthly Child/100,000 BC to Survival. We reckon the issue over schedu...
