This episode was brought to you in partnership with the Italian Plumbers Guild and Kinga off Big Brother 5, because John Hammond isn't returning our calls.

It's The Polis Box : episode 56!

It's got it all - oh, and we also put Journey To The Centre Of The Tardis on trial! Maggie Maggie Maggie! Out Out Out!

It's The Polis Box : Episode 54!

Lee, Dave and Cameron valiantly face down Skype recording quality that, aptly, makes this episode sound as if it's coming out of a 1940s bacolite wireless, as they return to the courtroom and put The Empty Child and The Doctor Dances on trial!

Join us as we turn music mogul and assemble the finest rap supergroup in history, discover which puppet is Cameron's trigger to the dark places and we somehow find the time to put Mission To The Unknown on trial - but will it be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Doctor Who?

They're two good boys and their podcast is well worth a listen : onthetimelash.wordpress.com ) This episode's intro music : "Lippy Kids" by Elbow ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NItwaz0nLJA )

It's time to reveal the results of every poll from the last four episodes in our Super Soaraway Trial Of The Trial Of A Timelord Anniversary Results Special! Or episode 36 of The Polis Box, to give it a less unwieldy title. We're joined once again by Mark from On The Timelash, Geordie Al from Conquistabores and Greg and Charlie from Doctor Who : The Complete Menagerie (Almost) to pick over the results of the trial of the century (well, ok, the trial of the year) and to also unearth Ben Verth's secret karaoke shame, push the bounds of taste and decency (again) and to inadvertently invent a brand new religion! It's what Sydney Newman would have wanted.

It's the end...but the moment has been prepared for! It's our final case in The Polis Box's epic Trial Of The Trial Of A Timelord and it's the turn of The Ultimate Foe to go before the court. We're joined by lully Greg Jameson and lully Buddy Windrush from Doctor Who : The Complete Menagerie (Almost) to run the rule over the final two episodes of Series 23 of television's Doctor Who - but will it be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against the show? Also : the Doctor that never was, a canny way of reintroducing a former companion without the need for recasting or computer trickery (you can have this one for free, Big Finish) and Cameron's body is possessed by the spirit of James Alexander Gordon. Pools panel result? It's a good listen! You can hear Greg and Charlie (and Sam and Tom - they're all in it) in their natural habitat at : http://thecompletemenagerie.weebly.com/

In the penultimate instalment of our Trial Of The Trial Of A Timelord specials, we're joined by The Conquistabores' Geordie Al Milburn and Jim from the Krynoid Podcast - we present our live audition to be the new panel of Gilette Soccer Saturday, reveal the real reason behind Pussy Galore's name, explore the real story behind the most seismic event in the North-East's recent history...and somehow find the time to put Terror Of The Vervoids on trial! But will it be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Doctor Who? Guard your eyes from stray paintballs and press play at your peril! But dinna tek a Vervoid through the Grove, man, Geoff'll go mad! You can hear more of Geordie Al on : https://wavve.link/conquistabores/episodes and Jim is one half of the Krynoid Podcast : https://krynoidpodcast.wordpress.com/

It's time for part two of our Trial Of The Trial Of A Timelord specials, as Richie Morgan from I Hate Doctor Who and Steven B from New To Who join Lee, Dave and Cameron to put their cases for and against Mindwarp before the courtroom! Revelations aplenty in this episode - outrageous claims of bias! Brian Blessed's secret career in children's television! An unintentional defection to the other side!

Lee, Dave and Cameron are joined by Ben Verth and Mark Donaldson from On The Timelash to put The Mysterious Planet before the courtroom in the first of our Trial Of A Timelord episodes. But will it be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Doctor Who? The decision, as ever, is ultimately yours...

Lee, Dave and Cameron don their wellies, open their brollies and brave the suspiciously corpse-raising elements to put Series 8's finale, Dark Water / Death In Heaven on trial! But will it be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Doctor Who? You decide!

Lee, Dave and Cameron saddle up, mosey on into town and discuss gender identities for horses, plan Usain Bolt's retirement fund, count their Patreon riches and put A Town Called Mercy on trial! But will it be considered a maverick or just a low-down dirty varmint that's guilty of crimes against Doctor Who? The decision, as ever, is yours...

In a bumper episode, Lee, Dave and Cameron put Colony In Space on trial via the Soviet Beatles, Rentaghost, Peter Kay impressions and numerous Old Grey Whistle Test sessions...but will it be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Doctor Who? Prepare a flask of tea and a pack of biscuits, book a week off work and feel the length...

It's The Polis Box : Episode 27! This time, Lee, Dave and Cameron retcon yet another Stallone classic, plant a Sesame Street favourite in Janet Fielding's subconscious, demand some green jelly and put The Robots Of Death on trial! Will it be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Doctor Who? You decide...

Join Lee, Dave and Cameron as they hoist anchor, splice the mainbrace, Rodger the Cabin Boy, dust the back passage and traverse the high seas to put that scurvy seadog The Smugglers on trial! Will it be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Doctor Who? You decide...

It's The Polis Box : Episode 24! This time, we discuss evolution vs religion, Rula Lenska (sadly minus her dog), unearth the most harrowing TV moment of all time, summon the spectre of Darren Anderton and add another icon of childrens' television to the wrong-un file. Oh yeah, and we put Resurrection Of The Daleks on trial! Will it be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Doctor Who?...

It's The Polis Box : Episode 23! This time round, we go roman around a bunch of old stones, push for yet another sponsorship deal, entomb the chief executive of the SPFL, offend the Welsh (again) and introduce you to a shipping pairing that no amount of bleach (injected or otherwise) will remove. Oh yeah, and we also put The Pandorica Opens and The Big Bang on trial! Will they be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Who?...

It's The Polis Box : Episode 22! This time round, we take a beloved companion up the amazon, visit the world's worst phone shop and we're joined two actual genuine gods-honest Welsh superstars as we put The Green Death on trial! Will it be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Doctor Who?

This month, Lee, Dave and Cameron tackle the prickly subject of Meglos from Series 18 of television's Doctor Who, in which cactuses...cactuseses...cactuseseses?...a big jaggy plant threatens the existence of the Doctor, Romana and some planet or other. And Dobbies Garden Centre. Maybe. Also : Dennis Norden and Nicholas Parsons' secret love tryst! The voice of the valleys! And S Club 7! Reach for the stars with the Polis Box : episode 21!

Scringestones! Offensive attempts at regional accents! Vegetable-based gameshows! Shergar! How much can Jon Pertwee be bought for? Does Tom Baker taste of LSD? Police interventions! And the Ribos Operation on trial! All this and more as The Polis Box returns!

It's The Polis Box Episode 15! In this month's episode, Lee, Dave and Cameron put Timeflight on trial...a much maligned 80s episode but is it's status as whipping boy of the Davison era *really* deserved? We also discuss kicking off with nuns on a train, why Timeflight teaches us that Brexit is going to be alright in the end, at least twenty-thousand instances of the word Concorde and, for the first time ever, bowing to the might of the censors to avoid one of us potentially losing our job...

It's The Polis Box Episode 14! In this month's episode, Lee, Dave and Cameron put Earthshock on trial...you know, the one where Adric ends up with horrendously stained and sticky pyjamas...not like that, you filthy beggars. We also discuss alternative careers for Nigel Mansell, fractious family days out, dinosaurs and pitch a brand new home improvement show that Channel 4 would be *mental* to turn down...

It's the inglorious return of The Polis Box, the podcast that puts Doctor Who in the dock! In this month's episode, we put The TV Movie on trial...the Doctor has gone on holiday to San Francisco by accident and all hell has broken loose, thanks to the Master. Don't worry, dear listener...while there's CLOCKS, there's hope...

Ring the bells! Take to the streets! Tell your neighbours and friends! There’s no cause for celebration…warn them, it’s the return of The Polis Box! Fresh from our arduous five-month battle with Jonathan Powell and Michael Grade, we’re back from hiatus with the same old toss you came to expect in the last series! Join Lee and Dave as they cosplay as Colin Baker and The Valeyard (not really) to put another entry in the Doctor Who canon on trial. This time : will Horror Of Fang Rock be offered up a shining beacon of hope or will it be cast out into the fog forever? You decide…

It’s The Polis Box #011! Normal service has been resumed as we get back to our mission to put all of Doctor Who on trial. In this episode, will Let’s Kill Hitler be found guilty or not guilty of (war) crimes against Doctor Who? You decide… This podcast is brought to you in association with Vimto, seeing as Penderyn Whisky clearly never took the hint.

It’s The Polis Box Episode 10! Now, never let it be said that the Polis Box isn’t a bastion of taste and decency…well, ok, you can let it be said, on the strength of the first twenty seconds of this episode. Basically, it’s Dave. Because…well, he’s Dave. Maybe he was channelling the spirit of Jim Davidson (aka Jim Robinson off Neighbours), we just don’t know. This week, we put the Tom Baker era in the dock once again with The Invisible Enemy on trial! We reveal the results of Episode 9’s poll and there’s the usual cavalcade of nonsense…with apologies to Germans, Austr

It’s The Polis Box…Episode 9! In this episode…John Simm in a plastic bag! Dave rewrites the Doctor’s family line! And we launch our Kickstarter appeal to raise enough funds for a people-carrier trip down to Manchester to raid a lock-up full of Doctor Who figures. Oh yeah, and there’s the small matter of the results of Episode 8’s vote on Planet Of The Spiders and we put The Doctor’s Daughter on trial. Not that anybody tunes in to hear us gassing on about such things. That’s because nobody tunes in to hear us gassing on…

It’s The Polis Box Episode 8! On this week’s episode…technical failures! Interruptions from household appliances! Benton and the Brigadier roughing up some East End criminal types in a shed up by Heathrow! And our profuse apologies to the family of Georgia Moffett… But asides from all that, we reveal the results from Episode 7b’s case and we’re putting Jon Pertwee’s final story as the Doctor in the dock, with Planet Of The Spiders on trial. A tear, dear listener? No, don’t cry…while there’s other Doctor Who podcasts, there’s…hope…

It’s The Polis Box Episode 7b! In which Lee and Dave round up their end-of-series-3 spectacular by endurin…sorry, enjoying The Sound Of Drums and Last Of The Timelords. It’s got it all…megalomaniac Masters! Dobby Doctors! Blue Peter competition winners ruthlessly slaughtered and forced to live out existence in a spherical cage (that’s the best bit…) We’ll also be revealing the results from Episode 7a’s poll on Utopia, alongside some giddy excitement about the return(ish) of Power Of The Daleks and, as is customary, an entirely unplanned and somewhat questionable Jimmy Savile joke. And then we’re off for a lie-down, never wanting to see these episodes for a long, long time…classic era episode next time, though. After this, even Timeflight will feel like a sweet release…

It’s The Polis Box Episode 7! Or 7a, if you prefer, as it’s the first part of our end of Series 3 “spectacular”. This time around, we’re covering Utopia – so if you like your Master with a mop of grey hair, your sentences bookended with a Chan and a Tho and like your extras with more ham than a butcher’s shop window, then this is the episode for you! Dave puts forwards the case for why this is an exemplary example of Doctor Who, while Lee battles in vain to put together a case for the prosecution, which essentially boils down to some 10th Doctor bashing. There’ll be a lot of that when we draw Series 2 and 3 in the future…

It’s The Polis Box Episode 6! The podcast that puts Doctor Who in the dock (true), has been proven to make you sexually attractive to the opposite sex by association alone (kind of true) and on the brink of that lucrative Maynard’s/Bassetts/Bell’s Pies sponsorship (alas, not true). In this episode, it’s the turn of television’s Peter Davison to take to the dock, as we put the penultimate Fifth Doctor story, Planet Of Fire, on trial. Does it provide the flame that lights up your life, or is it just a massive roaster? You decide… Also in this episode : Kidnapping attempts! The Curse Of The Phallic Prop Mould!

It’s Episode 5 of The Polis Box! In which Lee and Dave shamelessly chase yet more sponsorship deals (while showing a level of heightened sophistication), examine the many accents of John Barrowman, provide yet more hot takes on quinoa and wonder just what their listeners are playing at when they reveal the results of Episode 4’s vote on The Androids Of Tara. On trial this time round is The Unquiet Dead from Christopher Eccleston’s all too short tenure in the Tardis. Will it be ranked as one of the show’s all-time great works, or will it be exposed as a trickster, a charlatan and a fraud?

In episode four of The Polis Box, it’s the turn of The Androids Of Tara to stand trial. Lee and Dave mull over the pros and cons of the fourth Key To Time story, but will it be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Doctor Who? The answer, as ever, is down to you… Also in the episode : quinoa! Scurrilous rumour! John Barrowman’s wardrobe! A midget rolled in cut hair! And the truth behind the curious case of Mr. Ed and his permanent smile…

We’re back! It’s The Polis Box Episode 3 : You Cannae Shove Your Granny Off A Bus But You Can Belt Her Off A Roof With A Table Lamp (aka Retcon Pollen And The Infinite Sadness). In this episode, we cover Amy’s Choice from Series 5, Matt Smith’s first season as the befezzed Timelord. Surely such a stone-cold classic of modern Who couldn’t be found guilty of crimes against Doctor Who? Surely. Surely? We also reveal the results of our polls on Episode 2’s cases, School Reunion and The Two Doctors. Will Lee finally break his duck and get his first successful result? (Probably not). Or will Dave sweep to victory once again? (Most likely). Listen to find out!

We’ve listened to your comments and your feedback, but sadly, your pleading has fallen on deaf ears as Lee and Dave return to put another two episodes of Doctor Who in the dock. On this week’s episode : we cast our eye over the last fortnight in Doctor Who (now that there’s been some actual news…ish). Bill! Bemused Lineker! Barrowman! We also put two more episodes of Doctor Who on trial, vying for their place in The Polis Box’s Official Unofficial All-Time Doctor Who Ultimate Canon (Sort Of) – this time round, it’s the turn of dugs and doctors as we make the case for and against School Reunion and The Two Doctors!

After much delay (and some light-entertainment collateral damage), it’s finally time for The Polis Box : Episode One! In this episode, Lee and Dave put The Magician’s Apprentice / The Witch’s Familar and The Sontaran Experiment in the dock. Which, if any, will claim a place in The Polis Box’s Official Unofficial All-Time Doctor Who Ultimate Canon (Sort Of)? That’s where you come in. Based on the arguments put forward by your rambling hosts, you decide whether the episodes in question should be condemned for crimes against Who or be cleared of all charges and take their rightful place in the canon. Leave all personal feeling at the door, your vote should only be based on the utter nonsense of fools.

Crows! Companion exits! The boy wizard who shall not be named! A special guest appearance live from Vienna! William Hartnell’s secret tryst with Courtney Love! Copious amounts of swearing (and not from us, for once)! And which Doctor is best to turn to when you need a steak bake in a hurry? All this and more as The Polis Box puts Face The Raven on trial!

It's The Polis Box Episode 18! This month, Lee, Dave and Cameron put Terminus on trial - it's got the lot! Inadvisable dietary choices! Big dugs! Radiation! The Big Bang (again)! A cut-out-and-keep compendium of stripper names! The Black Guardian putting together some self-assembly furniture! You don't get this on Radio Free Skaro! Will Nyssa's swansong be found guilty or not guilty of crimes against Doctor Who? It's your decision...

It's The Polis Box Episode 17! This month, Lee, Dave and Cameron put The Return Of Doctor Mysterio on trial in a seasonal episode (only if you're listening to this four months after release). Will Mysterio give us a warm fuzzy yuletide feeling of goodwill or will it be as welcome as spittle on your prized motor from the mouth of an Anfield legend? WARNING : This episode, recorded in the midsts of a jelly-baby induced sugar high, contains a variety of unconvincing accents. Apologies to the French, Germans, Scousers...in fact, apologies to everyone. Everywhere. Especially to Mrs Phillips.

It's The Polis Box Episode 16! In this month's episode, Lee, Dave and Cameron put The Rescue on trial...a short, sweet nugget of the 1960s or does it just deserve to be pushed down a shallow incline and fed to a man in a sleeping bag? We also discuss the murky world of children's television, the extensive acting CV of a BBC prop that puts Christopher Eccleston to shame and pitch a Jim Henson made remake of Gangs Of New York...
