A proposito di questo titolo

The Twelfth Doctor once said Hate is always foolish, and love is always wise. Always Foolish is a positive Doctor Who podcast, exploring the good side of 'bad' episodes. Or episodes people think are bad. We'll be tackling negative discourse head-on by discussing where these stories fall down, how they could be improved, and what's actually pretty darn great about them, thank you very much. And along the way there'll be news, impressions, and many, many tangents.

  • Sleep No More
    May 3 2026

    On this episode we're not hitting snooze on Mark Gatiss' series 9 fiendish found footage film, Sleep No More.

    How should the critique of capitalism be drawn out more? Is Reece Shearsmith acting, or is he just like that? Isn't the implementation of found footage sorta excellent? Is Tom Blair Witching out? Why isn't this episode scary, and how can we change that? What would Clara vlog about? How should Doctor Who balance experimentation with quality? Answers to all these questions on this episode of Always Foolish. Plus teenage David cameo.


    Always Foolish is a positive Doctor Who podcast, about finding things we like in episodes we don't. We pick out our favourite bits for these stories, and suggest quick fixes to some common critiques.

  • Dimensions in Time Loop (2026)
    Apr 5 2026

    Welcome to the second Dimensions in time Loop, our yearly tradition where we find new ways to lose our minds over Doctor Who's bizarre Eastenders crossover, Dimensions in Time (1993).


    Is Mandy the worst politician in British history? (Yes, Tom has the stats)! How much would David spend on a Silurian murder board? Is this in fact purgatory? Are we seeing the wilderness years made manifest? What exactly is happening to the companions? What exactly is happening to us? Answers to all these questions on this episode of Always Foolish.
