Celebrate your Black Friday weekend with a new episode of Doctor Who A to Z! With the new spin-off "The War Between the Land and the Sea" upcoming, Josh and Ashley talk about spin-offs in general, what they hope to see in the new UNIT / Sea Devil (sorry, Homo Aquatic) one, and what spin-offs they'd love to see!

First, though, they cover all the Whoniverse news worth covering!

This week, Ashley, Josh and Alan each count down their five favorite monsters or aliens from the 1980s! We'll be talking about stories from the final decade of the original show, from Tom Baker's final season through all of Davison, Colin Baker, and Sylvester McCoy! In addition to our Top 5s, we cover some of the others that we love that didn't quite make our final list.

First, we cover the latest in Doctor Who news!

We have a big show for you this week! First, we've got a boat-load of news about the Future of Doctor Who, including the end of the Disney+ deal, updates on The War Between the Land and the Sea, announcement of a 2026 Christmas special, and a mention of the new animated pre-school series. Plus, we talk about the passing of Nabil Shaban and early reviews of the Season 13 Blu-Ray.

Then we dive into this week's topic - our review of the Tom Baker's debut in 1975, "Robot" written by Terrence Dicks, directed by Christopher Barry, and produced by Barry Letts.
