A TARDIS of One’s Own is a Doctor Who podcast in which Jen and Sophie embark on a queer feminist journey through time and space and the first five season of New Who. On permanent hiatus.
Well, well, well, if it isn't another Christmas special. This one is a very obvious take on the Dickens staple, A Christmas Carol, and we have a LOT of reckons. We start off our chats around having a moral compass and how often it falls on minorities to teach compassion to others, but then we rapidly descend into some hot takes around the unhinged parts of this episode. Surprisingly, it's not the fog fish.

E58: The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang & personhood
We've made it to the end of season five. River Song returns to deliver The Doctor a serious warning from his allies: the mythical Pandorica, said to contain the most feared creature in the entire Universe, is opening. Once it does, silence falls, and Earth is left alone in the universe. Jumping through time, the Doctor must figure out a way to bring back those who never were and save his friends from the collapse of reality.
Crucially, Rory returns as what is essentially a manifestation of Amy's imagination, and this made us ask at what point someone becomes a person, and how do you define your own experience of personhood. It's a big topic that we barely touch but an interesting thing to consider!

E57: The Lodger & ignoring the obvious
Had a wee mental health break but we're back on our bs and almost at the end of season 5! In this ep, the TARDIS teleports off without The Doctor and he's left to figure out why it can't land. All signs point to a seemingly ordinary, two storey house dun dun duuuun.
This episode runs on people who can't see can't see what's right in front of their faces, so our theme ackowledges that... it's ignoring the obvious.
