This week, I'm joined by Moisés Chiullán, to discuss a moment from the 2015 Christmas special, The Husbands of River Song, with Peter Capaldi as the Twelfth Doctor and Alex Kingston as River. We talk about what Capaldi brings to the table when portraying the Doctor's relationship with River, the closure this episode offers for a long-running storyline, and what the Doctor's actions in this episode say about him as a character.

This week, I'm joined by Connie Gibbs, to discuss a moment from 2017's The Pilot, the premiere of Peter Capaldi's third and final series as the Doctor, and the episode that introduces him to companion Bill Potts. We discuss how Bill's family history resonated with Connie's own, the brilliance of Bill's dynamic with the Doctor and how that brilliance was let down, and how a memento can tie us to someone who's no longer with us.
