Tonight’s Friday Night Who takes us back to Tom Baker’s first outing as the Fourth Doctor, in “Robot”.

Find us on twitter for the live tweet-a-long, follow @vortexglenn, @vortexshaun, @VortexKeith and @travelvortex for all the fun and insightful commentary, and look for the #FridayNightWho and #Robot hashtags.  We push play at midnight, CST.

*SPOILER WARNING* If you haven’t seen Star Trek Into Darkness, at the warning point around the 31:42 mark, skip ahead about 35:35 to the 1:07:21 mark to avoid leaning some of its secrets. *SPOILER WARNING*

In this week’s episode we finally get to review the last episode of the season for Doctor Who, The Name of the Doctor. We’ll talk about the epic ending to Series 7b.

But first, step away from the world of Doctor Who and review the new film, Star Trek Into Darkness. Mind the spoiler above if you haven’t seen it. Then we take a look at the Star Trek/Doctor Who comic crossover, Assimilation 2.

Also, some big news to discuss.

And, of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!
