No Country for Old Doctors (A Town Called Mercy)

This month on the podcast, we saddle up and head for Mercy, Nevada, where the Doctor encounters a gunslinger, a disgraced alien doctor, a town full of terrified humans, and one hell of a moral dilemma.

We’re talking A Town Called Mercy – the 2012 Eleventh Doctor story that asks some pretty uncomfortable questions about mercy, vengeance, guilt and whether the Doctor gets to decide who deserves to live.

Before that, there’s the usual assortment of news and short topics, and afterwards we dig into the mailbag for a heap of listener feedback.

So grab your hat, keep an eye out for cyborgs, and ponder what YOU would do with an alien war criminal.

Enjoy, dear listener.
