Over two years on from his debut adventure, Ben and Mark return, drinks in hand, to discuss the Ncuti Gatwa era of Doctor Who. Pairing The Church on Ruby Road with State of Decay, the Lash Lads discuss crumbling institutions, rapacious kings and a revolting underclass, but that's enough about the RTD2 era, they also discuss a Christopher H Bidmead story!

Also: The Degesestial Funmaker returns to test Ben and Mark's knowledge of Doctor Who merch, but who is William H. Keith? And what do Halle Berry and Matthew Waterhouse have in common? All this and much less in the glorious return of On the Time Lash.

Ben and Mark throw open the doors of the On the Timelash bookshop for a boozy book launch with Dylan Rees, author of the fabulous book, Myths and Legends: The Reeltime Pictures Story. The lads chat about how Keith Barnfather, Nicholas Briggs, and many more have created a massive people's history of Doctor Who, courtesy of the Myth Makers interviews, deep dive documentaries and spinoff dramas.

And then, in the second half, Dylan chooses a "classic" and "new" Myth Makers for the three of us to discuss; Sylvester McCoy's 1994 interview and Eric Saward's 2005 interview. How has the range changed in the intervening 11 years?

You can buy Dylan's book here.

You can rent or buy the whole Reeltime Pictures catalogue from here.

"Have we learned nothing from Torchwood?"

Mark is joined by Si Hart, host of The Library of Impossible Things, who submits his five choices for the tinsel tunnel. It's a wide-ranging discussion that often comes back to reminding us what it is to be a child watching Doctor Who.

Under discussion: "Dark" Doctor Who, dodgy tea towels, Tom Baker being all teeth and no curls, the weakest story in season 13, and much more.

Also: Who put Ncuti Gatwa in a hydraulic press? And what has Si got against Prentis Hancock?

You can see the boxed set that Mark and Si are talking about here.

The squashed Ncuti Gatwa can be bought here.
