Episode 98: Styre Over Substance (Season 12 Retrospective)

Another season down, and so it’s time for us to look back on the entirety of Season 12 in our now-customary end-of-season retrospective! Once again, we examine the season through our usual blend of awards, a recap of our scores and metrics, and questions from some of our friends from social media.

 

Along the way, Reilly and Julie clash over whether or not the Scientific Reform Society make for good villains, Anthony continues to express amazement at Terry Nation writing a stone-cold classic, and Don questions how fully formed Harry is as a character. The entire team are united in their opinion of the true star of the season (and yes, it’s exactly who you think).

 

If you would like to watch along with us, this entire season is available for streaming at both Britbox US (https://www.britbox.com) and Britbox UK (https://www.britbox.co.uk). The entirety of Season 12 can also be found in a lovely Blu Ray boxset from both Amazon US (https://amzn.to/3RWV2md) and Amazon UK (https://amzn.to/3d5ZO1N).
