Hello Patrons! Here is a little something exclusive for you. 20 years ago today, the evil pepper-pots from Skaro (or one of them, anyway) returned to our screens, thrillingly reinvented for the 21st century, and yet unmistakably the same. To mark this anniversary, we have rewatched 2005's "Dalek" (which happened to be one of Ben's favourite episodes!) and recorded a special commentary track.We highly recommend listening to the track in sync with the episode (there is a countdown after our introduction). This will eliminate any awkward silences where we got too engrossed in the episode to speak!We hope you enjoy this, and if you'd like to hear more episode commentaries, let us know!
