Time Ram enjoys a cup of tea with two lumps (and sugar) as we take on the famously unfinished Shada, finishing it off with Patrick Troughton. Oh well, at least it’s festive, what with Jamie’s deadly porridge pot, long actresses and a song from Kamelion.

Time Ram gets in touch with its inner Chibnall as we zhuzh up ’42’, promoting it from the Tennant era to Davison! Ok, so we lose Freema Agyeman, but we gain popstars a-plenty and JNT’s most inexplicable decision. Also: Beryl Reid in a sweaty vest! What’s not to love?

Time Ram learns what works and what doesn't, as we translate Capaldi's 'The Woman Who Lived' into the Hartnell era! Listeners of a nervous disposition may need to turn away as we mix up man-cows with French spies and free Susan's ring. It must be the extreme old age...

It's Time Ram and it’s time to brave (perhaps) the first Paul McGann season climax as he and Grace take on “The Brain of Morbius”. Surely it’s time for a song and dance number? Not to mention some extra limbs. Karn will never be the same again.

It's Time Ram, the Doctor Who podcast that gives discontinuity a try with 'Deep Breath' but now starring Patrick Troughton! So we must establish who wasn't Polly's boyfriend, what you can achieve with the right hat and how to build London on 25p and a pasty.

Time Ram gets all giddy as we turn our attention to 1965’s ‘The Web Planet’ and transpose it into the Colin Baker era! Excitement or oxygen deprivation? You decide! Meanwhile, we get to enjoy an Optera soap opera, comfy spacesuits and an excess of Husperon.

It’s the end… and the moment hasn’t been prepared for, as Time Ram takes Sylvester McCoy’s final TV story ‘Survival’ and drags it hissing and scratching into the era of Tom Baker. Plus the Master is back, but no-one can recognise him because he’s dressed as a bush!
