About this listen

A weekly Doctor Who podcast hosted by Garry and Adam, featuring honest reviews, deep discussions, and a genuine passion for the show. Since 2014, we've chatted our way through every era of Doctor Who—covering modern stories, classic adventures, and spin-offs like Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures. Whether it’s a newly aired episode or a classic story from decades past, we bring thoughtful conversation, our signature waffle, banter, and a grounded take on each story. Each month, we’re also joined by the Big Blue Box writing team for our bonus Round Table episode, where we chat about what's happening in fandom, news, stories new and old and generally anything we feel like chatting about in the world of Doctor Who. New episodes every Friday on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all the usual podcast apps. You can also listen and read our latest articles at bigblueboxpodcast.co.uk. Don’t forget to follow, leave a review, and share with your friends.

  • Who Fans, Meet Federation Strike - Our Blake’s 7 Podcast
    May 8 2026

    Hey, Who fans! Something a little different is landing in your feed today. This is the very first episode of Federation Strike: A Journey Through Blake's 7, a Blake's 7 podcast hosted by us.

    The show follows lifelong superfan, Adam, and newcomer, Garry, as we work through every episode of the classic BBC sci-fi series together. If you've ever been curious about Blake's 7 but never made the jump, this is a great place to get acquainted with the show.

    Think of it as the Big Blue Box format applied to a show that shares a lot of DNA with classic Doctor Who — same era, same BBC corridors, same Dudley Simpson on the music — but with a darker edge and its own distinct identity. This first episode covers The Way Back, the 1978 series opener written by Terry Nation.

    The podcast is well underway, and at the time of this episode going out, we're currently halfway through reviewing Series 2, with plenty more still to come.

    Thank you for checking out our other podcast, and we'd love you to come along on our journey through Blake's 7. Click the links below to hop over to your fav podcast app or search "Federation Strike" to find and follow the show.

  • February 2026 Roundtable: The Race for Showrunner Heats Up
    Feb 20 2026

    Hey, Who fans, and welcome to The Big Blue Box Roundtable.

    On this episode, we don’t really have much concrete news, so it’s rumours and hearsay. We discuss the public two-horse race for the showrunner role (there could be other horses in the race, who knows) and the rumour that Netflix wants more control over format and runtime, IF they are, in fact, the next streaming partner.

    All interesting stuff, so grab a cuppa and settle in as we chat about all things Doctor Who!

    This was a Big Blue Box Roundtable episode. Thank you for joining Garry, Adam and various members of the writing team.
