Doctor Who: The Web Of Queer

 On this episode of The Web of Queer, we discuss episode 5 in this series run, “Time Heist”. We talk wardrobes, space weather, and women. How do we interpret Saibra’s mutant powers? And what exactly did Clara have to do in this episode?

 

After, we dive into a discussion about transgender representation in Who, or rather the lack of it. What examples has the show shown us so far, and how do we think the show can add to its roster of queer characters?

Ep 005: Blanket Statements and Timelord Tiffs

On this episode of The Web of Queer, we discuss Moffat’s most recent episode, “Listen”. What do we think of the developing relationship between Clara and Danny? And how did the episode hold up as a whole?

After, our review of “The Mark of the Rani”! With all the recent Missy predictions, we thought it might be wise to turn our sights onto one of the more favored contenders, and give our new Classic watchers a peek at what rebel Timeladies can be like.

Ep 004: So Many Merry Men

In this episode of The Web of Queer, we review series 8, episode 3, “Robot of Sherwood.” What did we think of the episode, how does the plot hold up, and what do we think of the new information this episode gave us of the Promised Land?

Later, we take a brief look at some the gay men of Who, covering some fine gentlemen from the Classic and new series, as well as Big Finish and books.
