The brilliant writer and performer, @jameslark.bsky.social has his latest season of Neurotic Literature and it’s as intelligent, engaging and funny as ever. This story blew me away with its cold fury at blame culture and manipulative parenting.

Amazingly, Monday's episode will be our 100th! I can scarcely believe it. The lovely Joe Ford @docoho44.bsky.social will be joining the podcast to discuss an absolute classic.

‘Killing someone was one thing, but this was worse; there was no honour or morality in it at all…’

This character is the nadir of Doctor Who fiction for me. Ridiculously violent, unpleasant, childishly motivated, tedious and stupid.

Lesson 42! It's time to beat up the Karkus, get trapped in a book and worry about a dollop of foamy spittle at the side of the mouth of a writer of weeklies... @thepolisbox.bsky.social
