by The Three Who Rule
Radio Free Skaro is possibly the most popular, most prolific and charmingly irreverent (but never irrelevant) Doctor Who podcast around. Since August 2006, hosts Warren (in Vancouver, BC) and Steven (in Edmonton, AB) have provided listeners with their brand of amusing Doctor Who praise and punishment. A year later, Chris (also in Edmonton, AB) was added to the team, and The Three Who Rule were born. Recommended by Doctor Who Magazine, Radio Free Skaro provides an entertaining and diverting listen for the diehard or casual Doctor Who fan. New episodes usually appear on Sundays, following a loose magazine format of the three hosts discussing the news and events of the past week in the worlds of Doctor Who, Torchwood, and the Sarah Jane Adventures. They have also recorded special commentary podcasts for classic series and new series episodes of Doctor Who along with interviews of some of the brightest of the Doctor Who luminaries. Radio Free Skaro is also the official podcast of Gallifrey One, the world’s largest and longest-running annual Doctor Who convention.

<p>It’s “Lux” time at Radio Free Skaro Towers and the Three Who Rule have thoughts about both the two-dimensional (mostly) villain of the title and more including RTD and Murray Gold song crimes, whether or not this whole Pantheon thing is panning out, how ring-a-ding good The Doctor and Belinda are together, *that* fan scene and more! Plus news of books, DWM, and more Gallifrey One news! </p> <p>Links:</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li><a href="https://www.patreon.com/radiofreeskaro">Support Radio Free Skaro on Patreon</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.gallifreyone.com/reservations/" target= "_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Gallifrey One 2026 Hotel Reservations Open May 9</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.gallifreyone.com/news-041724/" target= "_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Anita Dobson at Gallifrey One 2026</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002b8rr" target= "_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Doctor Who “Lux” Review</a></li> <li><a href="https://youtu.be/9rDD5fJGF34" target="_blank" rel= "noreferrer noopener">Doctor Who Unleashed S2E02</a></li> <li><a href="https://youtu.be/9S0jBl0H-LY" target="_blank" rel= "noreferrer noopener">Behind the Scenes: Lux</a></li> <li><a href= "https://www.doctorwho.tv/news-and-features/alan-cumming-and-director-amanda-brotchie-on-bringing-mr-ring-a-ding-to-life-in" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Alan Cumming and director Amanda Brotchie on bringing Mr Ring-a-Ding to life in Doctor Who</a></li> <li><a href= "https://uk.news.yahoo.com/russell-t-davies-no-time-213000907.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Russel T Davies has “no time” for Doctor Who too woke criticisms</a></li> <li><a href= "https://parade.com/tv/doctor-who-season-2-russell-t-davies-premiere-interview" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Russell T Davies hints at ideas for Seasons 4 and 5</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002bl53" target= "_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Well on BBC One Apr 26, 7:20pm</a></li> <li><a href= "https://www.doctorwho.tv/news-and-features/polish-polish-qa-with-the-designer-of-scoot-the-polish-bot" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Q&A with Michael van Kesteren who designed Scoot</a></li> <li><a href= "https://www.panini.co.uk/shp_gbr_en/blog/doctor-who-magazine-616/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Doctor Who Magazine 616 due Apr 24</a></li> <li><a href="https://obversebooks.co.uk/product/76-logopolis/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Black Archive #76: Logopolis due April 2025</a></li> <li><a href= "https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/461655/doctor-who-shirley-jackson-and-the-chaos-box-by-bayron-doctor-who-and-kalynn/9781405969956" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Doctor Who: Shirley Jackson and the Chaos Box coming June 12</a></li> <li><a href= "https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/461660/doctor-who-one-night-only-a-fela-kuti-story-by-thompson-doctor-who-and-tade/9781405970303" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Doctor Who: One Night Only (A Fela Kuti Story) coming August 21</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0DVZQDKR4" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Season 7 Blu-Ray available for order in Canada</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c045dk29xqqo">Jean Marsh dies, aged 90</a></li> </ul>

<p>With One! Week! To! Go! before the new series of Doctor Who graces our internet-connected devices and (in the UK) tele-appliances, there’s a surfeit of news to talk about including interviews with Russell T Davies, Varada Sethu, the same and Ncuti Gatwa on The One Show, as well as observations of the show’s 20th anniversary, the usual Canadian content digressions and silliness, and an exciting interview with Exterminate-Regenerate: The Story of Doctor Who author John Higgs!
