Aliens fake other aliens crashing into Big Ben and the Thames River as a diversion from their horrible methane gas exchanges. The Doctor watches TV, Mickey is blamed for killing Rose, and Mother Jackie slaps the Doctor across his face so hard that all 900 years flash before his faces. Will farting aliens win over Kelsey as much as they do Shelby? Maybe we need Dr. Tosh Sato to help us out.

Kelsey puts her mark on this Sixth Doctor tale that sees The Doctor meeting up with rival TimeLords the Master, and the Rani. English fictional quotes cannot stop the banter and insults thrown around each TimeLord, and the Doctor somehow goes unseen into the Rani's lair to find out the mystery of the unsettled Luddites. Why does Peri like to wear yellow? Will the Doctor stop arguing with Peri? Find out in this 19th Century historical story in which the Doctor is not the one interfering with history!

Richard Briers tries his hand at the Chief Caretaker in charge of the building's main cleaning staff, a set of very sad looking white robots. Surprisingly they don't look as dirty as the rest of the building. Over at the top of the building is a pool that Mel obsesses over throughout all four episodes while the Red Kangs clash with the Blue Kangs, the Rezzies, and even the Doctor as they cannot figure whether he is good or not. Good advice: do not ask to greet the Red Kangs, nor should you trust Pex to save you from a cardigan and a trident. So much garbage, so little cleaners!

"What do you all do in there?" "Argue, mainly." Yes we sit down to debate, argue and interrupt each other over the topic of who is a companion to the great Doctor. Do they have to travel with him? Do they need to be loyal? Do they need to make him fish fingers and custard with a side of carrot juice? Join Michael and Shelby as we tinker with our TARDIS databanks and figure out who really is a companion.

In a Christmas episode that was not aired at Christmas, the Doctor travels to 1869 Cardiff during the Christmas holiday where a rift in time and space creates a real phantom in an opera. Gas creatures who were mostly silent, unless they inhabited the dead, were they themselves a deadly vengeance of revenge. The Gelth as they were named end up crashing a Charles Dickens reading of A Christmas Carol and involving The Doctor, Rose, and Gweneth in a plot of certain doom for the human race. Will Colin be the happy medium?

We journey to New Earth [New (times 15) York to be more specific] to join up with some familiar faces, skin, and metallic spider creatures. Chip's shoulder is falling apart as he helps his Lady Cassandra steal a body, find a way to extort a fortune from the hospital staff, and escape the hospital basement in which they reside. In doing so pandemonium ensues when zombie like flesh is released from the Matrix of the Sick hidden in the hospital walls. Kelsey gets to see her very first David Tennant story too.

As the Moxx of Balhoon annoys Kelsey, Jabe throws out her branches and enters Shelby's heart. The Steward has trouble with his buttons while Rose has trouble with the many aliens watching her home world roast. And the fact that she just ran off with a strange man 5 billion years into the future begs the question where her priorities lie. We all check out Kelsey's first Christopher Eccleston episode.

Do they actually say, "Yo ho ho?" The curse for watching this episode is not understanding why they don't simply turn of the lights. However that may trigger a Vastra Nerada attack. We grow out our beards and start speaking pirate while we take on this light hearted episode that attempts to kill Rory, kill off the Captains young son, and anger a hologramatic psiren who will turn into a demon in order to "protect" her patients. Man I'd hate to see the insurance bill!

Kelsey chooses her first classic story to watch: Peter Davison's final adventure. Peri and the Doctor stumble into a Spectrox nest, and acquire a deadly rash. The problem is that the only cure is down in the depths of tunnels carved out by boiling hot mud. Okay, another problem is that the military from Androzani Major believe the Doctor and Peri are gun running and sentence them to death. Oh, and Sharez Jek wants Peri to be his bride, his androids will kill them on sight, Morgus wants them dead, Stotz delights in their suffering, and the mud bursts start destroying the tunnel systems as well. Phew! Will we all get away from Androzani Minor?

We revisit this rather epic episode that takes place in Utah, Florida, a giant cube, the Moon, Washington D.C., Outer Space, and various parts of the world! Canton Delaware the Third "assassinates" our entire TARDIS crew, River goes all Rambo on the alien "menace," and Kelsey finds her compassion for the creepy Silence. Anyone have a Sharpie?!
