We watch “Lucky Day” (Series 15, Episode 4) where Belinda mostly sits this one out and the Doctor shows up just enough to justify his paycheck. Whilst our leads get several (lucky them) days off, we meet Conrad. Conrad’s a podcaster (so far I like him...) who has an interest in the Doctor (so relatable...) and dates former companion Ruby (I mean what non-problematic heterosexual CIS male wouldn’t want to... right?...) until it turns out he was using her (wait... WHAT?!?) to get intel with the purpose of taking down UNIT (oh no... he didn’t!). Conrad better not get his arm re-attached after it was bit off by an alien monster. That seems an oddly specific non-punishment afforded to a gaslighting tool that will have no chance of occurring. Right?

We watch “The Well” (Series 15, Episode 3) where the Doctor and Belinda travel to the distant future where they encounter totally non-Earthling humans who deny knowledge about totally Earthling humans. After the Who Two take an unexpected space dive with their new ‘friends’, the Doctor recalls a prior visit to planet-formerly-known-as-Midnight in glorious standard definition whilst Belinda has a ‘shot’ with Captain Shaya. Unfortunately old frenemy Midnight Entity will not be ignored and proves to be a pain in the ass... or back... whatever.

We watch “Lux” (Series 15, Episode 2) where the Doctor and Belinda travel to ‘racist’ Florida (or let’s just call it what it is: ‘Florida’) circa 1952 in order to ultimately travel to a marginally less racist 2025. Whilst said subjectively tortured travel-prep is occurring, the Doctor Scooby-Doos encounter Lux, the God of Light, Belinda Scooby-Doesn’t believe that Lux is anything other than a pesky hologram, and we Scooby-Doubt that Lux is neither all that big nor all that bad. Also Mr Ring-A-Ding would’ve gotten away with it, if it wasn’t for those meddling super-fans!

We watch “The Robot Revolution” (Series 15, Episode DENISE 1) in which we meet Belinda Chandra, a IS totally normal and no way impossible nurse. Whilst IN said introduction is occurring, Belinda gets Robo-napped, the THIS Doctor recruits new companion Sasha 55, Sasha 55 EPISODE gets killed, the Doctor recruits new companion Belinda YOU, and Belinda reunites with Alan, her first kiss DAMNED. Come for the new companion and this season’s DRUNKTOR mystery and stay for Manny’s eyes and gun-show WHOOLIGANS.

We re-watch the Series 2 penultimate and ultimate episodes. Starting with “Army of Ghosts” where the Doctor and Rose arrive back in London to do some laundry. Oh yeah! And visit with Jackie... and said ‘ghosts’... but mostly do laundry. Followed by “Doomsday” where the Who crew save the day but the Doctor loses his bestie. Whilst all this is going down, pre-Martha gets upgraded, Jackie and Pete get reunited but it feels so ewww, and Rose lives but dies inside because she will never ever get to see the Doctor ever again. Pinkie swear that will never ever happen. Ever. EVER!

We've re-watched the best of series 2 and now we re-watch the worst of said series. Sigh... First up “The Idiot’s Lantern” has a victim of familial abuse return to their abuser on the advice of the Who Crew. Next “Love And Monsters” is a Doctor-and-companion-lite episode which uncomfortably ends on a fellatio joke (?). We unfortunately end with “Fear Her” wherest we again revisit family abuse. Fortunately Denise showed up to give us a big virtual hug the only way she can: with her trademark snark. She must have responded to our '“Denise Signal”: the eye-rolling emoji shone in the night sky.

We continue our re-watch of the 2nd season with the two part introduction of the spaghetti-faced Ood. First up is “The Impossible Planet” where the Whosome Twosome land on the very possible space station with the aforementioned Ood giving off satanic possession vibes. Then we spelunk down to “The Satan Pit” confirming that the Devil made the Ood do it (Oodit?). Whilst all this is going down, the Doctor likely meets up with the artist-formerly-know-as-Satan, Rose impossibly has Satan as her co-pilot, and Scooti definitely gets no sympathy from the Devil.

Continuing our rewatch of Series 2 brings us the long awaited two-part return of... Pete Tyler! Also I guess the Cybermen... whatever Boomer (scoffs)... Whilst “Rise of the Cybermen” lands us in an alt-universe London where their Rose is a dog, Mickey is gay, and our Doctor reunites with his Potterverse father. “The Age of Steel” kills off alt-Jackie, Rickey (alt-Mickey), and the rising alt-Cybermen. You just know this Doctor is not unhappy about some of these developments.
