Strangers in Space
Broader and deeper than Doctor Who...
Back in the early months of 2012 we started life as the Blue Box Podcast, a small team of three (then four, then five...) people podcasting our thoughts on Doctor Who, in the classic style of a bunch of friends the microphones were just accidentally eavesdropping on during a conversation in the pub. Over a decade later, the team has expanded and so has the remit; nowadays we publish episodes approximately three times a week, and the discussion has moved on to include any number of subjects that Doctor Who fans might find themselves chatting about during the aforementioned informal gatherings. So alongside our main subject, you'll find us talking about films, and music, and politics, and other TV programmes, and more besides - and occasionally talking to special guests about their interests too. But of course, plenty of Doctor Who.

It's a decade since the Doctor Who spin-off that nobody seemed to want faltered onto our screens, which feels like an appropriate amount of time to come back and talk about how everyone missed out on enjoying Class

If you thought those first three seasons of Ted Lasso might be all you were going to get, if you thought when those storylines concluded that might well have been it, then you were wrong! Three years on and he's back in the UK with a fourth series - but was it right to resurrect him?

There's a deadline of Sunday 1st November for the funding of this graphic novel about the life and times of Douglas Adams, and while we know how the galactic hitchhiker might himself have felt about such things, we figured it was worth getting the team from Cutaway Comics to have a chat about the project and its genesis and aims
