| 6/20/26 | ![]() Unchained Melody (Assassinating “Let’s Kill Hitler”) | Let’s Kill Hitler promises history’s biggest time-travel trolley problem, then stuffs Hitler in a cupboard and turns into River Song: The Origin Story at hyperspeed. Steven Moffat’s chaotic midseason premiere delivers bootstrap paradoxes, poison lipstick, Amy and Rory unknowingly parenting their own daughter, and a human-shaped spaceship staffed by tiny people with homicidal antibodies. But can Matt Smith and Alex Kingston’s peak chemistry sell a redemption arc that races from murder to total self-sacrifice in roughly one evening? Join us as we punch fascism, debate baby Hitler, update our wrist devices and decide whether this bold, bonkers episode clears its own impossibly high bar.

You get one of Doctor Who’s strangest detours for a marquee monster, where the Cult of Skaro grapples with ambition, identity, and a makeover ambitious enough for a Broadway musical. We dig into how Daleks in Manhattan and Evolution of the Daleks blend showbiz sparkle with Hooverville grit, why Dalek Sec’s big evolutionary leap still resonates, and how a story filled with showgirls, pig slaves, and lightning-powered science ends up delivering some of the most intriguing self-reflection the Daleks have ever attempted.Give your own rating for Daleks in Manhattan and Evolution of the Daleks on Spotify!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel and become a True Companion of the podcast to get new episodes before everyone else!Subscribe to our newsletter at pulltoopen.net for extended notes on Daleks in Manhattan and Evolution of the Daleks.Support the podcast by becoming a patron of Pull To Open on Patreon.Please review Pull To Open on Apple Podcasts.Timeline:Intro 00:00:00Previously… 00:01:56Whomoji Challenge 00:07:59POLL to Open 00:12:49TL;DW 00:18:09Commentary: Daleks in Manhattan and Evolution of the Daleks 21:25:19History Corner 01:02:50Four Questions to Doomsday 01:07:05What If the Evil Plot Had Succeeded? 01:14:22Where Is the Clara Splinter? 01:17:09Final Judgment 01:21:38Randomizer! 01:31:15Follow us on:TikTok: @pulltoopenInstagram: @pulltoopen63Facebook: @pulltoopen63X: @pulltoopen63Threads: @pulltoopen63Bluesky: @pulltoopenPlay Pull To Open BingoStory EssentialsSeries 3, Episodes 4 and 5Story number: 185, per the The Pull To Open CodexWriter: Helen RaynorDirector: James StrongShowrunner: Russell T.

| 11/22/25 | ![]() Space: 1969 (Energizing “The Space Pirates”) | Ahoy, space scallywags! This week the Randomizer maroons us in The Space Pirates, the six-part “epic” so padded it should come with its own flotation device. Join us as we navigate Argonite economics, Star Trek knockoff vibes, Clancy's comedy moustache, a CEO who is definitely up to something, and a TARDIS crew who spends most of the story confused, kidnapped, or both. Is this Bob Holmes’ secret experiment? A proto–frontier-in-space? Or simply the BBC showing off their 1969 model shop?

| 11/8/25 | ![]() Doctor, Octopus (Filleting “The Power of Kroll”) | Doctor Who’s biggest monster gets his due—or does he? The Randomizer drops us into The Power of Kroll, the soggiest segment of the Key to Time season, where the squid is supersized but the stakes… maybe not so much. Join us as we wade through methane, musical glass-shattering, suspicious swampies, and the curious absence of K9.

| 10/29/25 | ![]() Who Returns? (Reacting to the 2026 Christmas Special News) | Doctor Who is back, babes! The BBC has reclaimed its Time Lord, and Pull To Open is here with a full transatlantic debrief. What does Disney’s departure mean for the future of the franchise? What might RTD’s newly announced 2026 Christmas Special look like? Will it be the final chapter of RTD 2.0 or the beginning of something entirely new? Join us for Rose-tinted speculation, companion casting theories, fandom grievances, and way too many ideas for how to fix the streaming rights vortex.

| 10/25/25 | ![]() The Martians (Chilling “The Ice Warriors”) | It’s the second Ice Age and Britannicus Base is under siege—by glaciers, bureaucracy, and a hissy Martian warlord with grabby hands. Join us as we dig into The Ice Warriors, the monster debut that screams “classic” but quietly whispers “fix me.” Are the Warriors even wearing armor? How does Jamie know Shakespeare? And did humanity really get rid of all the plants? The Randomizer serves us a slow-burn base-under-siege with a plot twist that feels… scientifically questionable. But we’re here for Penley’s beard, Clent’s drama, and Victoria’s HR complaint. Also: there's a bear.

| 10/11/25 | ![]() Wolf Clan (Metamorphosing “Tooth and Claw”) | We are amused. Even Queen Victoria couldn’t keep a straight face through this lycanthropic slice of Tennant-era mayhem. Tooth and Claw is a kung-fu-kicking, wolf-howl-screaming, Torchwood-originating slice of steampunk nonsense, and honestly? It rules. The TARDIS misses Ian Dury and lands in the middle of an accidental backdoor pilot for Torchwood—with kung fu monks (???), an anti-wolf diamond laser, and a Queen who just wants these grinning time travelers gone. Does it all hold up? Sort of. Does it matter? Not really. Werewolves are real, the monarchy may be cursed, and Rose just might be the Bad Wolf again. Join us as we karate-chop our way through one of the wildest RTD-era monsters-of-the-week and explore why Queen Vic is the real final boss.Give your own rating for Tooth and Claw on Spotify!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel and become a True Companion of the podcast to get new episodes before everyone else!Subscribe to our newsletter at pulltoopen.net for extended notes on Tooth and Claw.Support the podcast by becoming a patron of Pull To Open on Patreon.Please review Pull To Open on Apple Podcasts.Timeline:Intro 00:00:00Previously… 00:01:59Whomoji Challenge 00:06:49POLL to Open 00:14:57TL;DW 00:22:22Commentary: Tooth and Claw 00:24:16History Corner 00:53:17Four Questions to Doomsday 01:02:29What If the Evil Plot Had Succeeded? 01:06:17Where Is the Clara Splinter 01:11:14Final Judgment 01:17:39Randomizer! 01:22:19Follow us on:TikTok: @pulltoopenInstagram: @pulltoopen63Facebook: @pulltoopen63X: @pulltoopen63Threads: @pulltoopen63Bluesky: @pulltoopenPlay Pull To Open BingoStory EssentialsSeries 2, Episode 2Story number: 172, per the The Pull To Open CodexWriter: Russell T.

| 9/27/25 | ![]() Planet Mirth (Delighting “The Happiness Patrol”) | Doctor Who gets political, camp, and candy-coated all at once in The Happiness Patrol. On Terra Alpha, Helen A rules with a smile—and a gun—while her confectionary executioner, The Candy Man, dishes out death by fondant. Pete and Chris dive into this neon-noir dystopia, unpack the not-so-subtle Thatcher parallels, and debate whether Sylvester McCoy’s most infamous outing is biting satire, glorious camp, or both.

| 9/14/25 | ![]() Island Chat (Interviews from Long Island Who 2025) | What’s it like to work on Doctor Who and Torchwood when you’re not in the spotlight—but still right there among the monsters, costumes, and chaos? In this very special live episode recorded at Long Island Who, Pete and Chris chat with two veterans of the Whoniverse: Mickey Lewis, a monster actor and novelist with stories to spare (including some very punk-rock prose the BBC might not approve of), and Amy Benedict, a Hollywood mainstay whose time on Torchwood: Miracle Day gave her a fresh outsider’s perspective on the show’s darker corners. From Dalek mishaps to John Barrowman pranks-that-weren’t, this is Doctor Who behind the masks, gloves, and prosthetics—where candor meets fandom.Pull To Open: Interviews from Long Island Who 2025Season 6Episode 25Hosts: Pete Pachal and Chris Taylor | — | ||||||
| 8/30/25 | ![]() Master of the Moment (Ingesting “The Time Monster”) | TOMTIT jokes. Chronovores. Diapers. That one time the Doctor ran interference with a cork and a fork. Welcome to The Time Monster — a Pertwee six-parter that throws everything into the vortex, including Atlantis, bird gods, and a TARDIS nesting doll. Is this Jon Pertwee’s “so bad it’s good” masterpiece? Or just a cautionary tale about letting the Master go full academia? We try to make sense of the nonsense, analyze why the Master needs to chill with the bird metaphors, and launch a bold theory: Clara Oswald is Kronos.

| 8/16/25 | ![]() Rex and the City (Regressing “Invasion of the Dinosaurs”) | Dinosaurs in Doctor Who? Always a risky proposition—especially when they’re on a BBC budget in 1974. Invasion of the Dinosaurs tries to roar, but often just… stands there looking sleepy. Still, there’s more to this six-parter than claymation T-rexes. Sarah Jane gets her best early outing as a journalist, UNIT is (mostly) back together, and Mike Yates makes a shocking heel turn. Add in Operation Golden Age, one of Classic Who’s most bonkers conspiracies, and you’ve got a story that’s as much political paranoia as prehistoric spectacle. Just don’t expect Jurassic Park. Maybe Jurassic parked.Give your own rating for Invasion of the Dinosaurs on Spotify!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel and become a True Companion of the podcast to get new episodes before everyone else!Subscribe to our newsletter at pulltoopen.net for extended notes on Invasion of the Dinosaurs.Support the podcast by becoming a patron of Pull To Open on Patreon.Please review Pull To Open on Apple Podcasts.Timeline:Intro 00:00:00Previously… 00:02:05Whomoji Challenge 00:10:32Poll To Open 00:15:18TL;DW 00:20:31Commentary: Invasion of the Dinosaurs 00:24:02Four Questions to Doomsday 01:05:47What If the Evil Plot Had Succeeded? 01:08:27Where Is the Clara Splinter? 01:13:02Final Judgment 01:18:29Randomizer! 01:23:21Follow us on:TikTok: @pulltoopenInstagram: @pulltoopen63Facebook: @pulltoopen63X: @pulltoopen63Threads: @pulltoopen63Bluesky: @pulltoopenPlay Pull To Open BingoStory EssentialsSeason 11, Serial 2Story number: 70, per the The Pull To Open CodexWriter: Malcolm HulkeDirector: Paddy RussellScript Editor: Terrance Dicks, Robert HolmesProducer: Barry LettsAired 12 January–16 February 1974Pull To Open: Invasion of the DinosaursSeason 6Episode 23Hosts: Pete Pachal and Chris TaylorMusic: Martin West/Thinking Fish©️AnyWho Media LLC 2025Doctor Who ©️BBC 1963 | — | ||||||
