Episode 227 – Age of Davros

TTV-Logo-1400-150x150**UPDATE** Apologies go out to Time Lord Ben. We accidentally omitted his feedback that should have followed his tip of the week. That has been corrected and the file reposted.

In this week’s show we flip last week’s topic on its ear and discuss the question: Is Davros better of without the Daleks?

We try to answer that by exploring what we know of the creator of the Daleks.

But leading into that discussion, we review the Big Finish Productions story, Davros, produced during the 40th anniversary year of Doctor Who. We’ll give our impression of that story.

And, per usual, we’ll discuss some news of the week, but not before we provide our reviews of the latest film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the recently released, Avengers: Age of Ultron. We should warn you however, we get into some HEAVY SPOILERS about the film. So, if you have yet to see it, you may want to skip ahead in the podcast to about the 41 or 42 minute mark.

Plus, another Doctor Who: Legacy – Tip of the Week.

And, of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!
