This was a cracking year for Movies but somehow weve managed to pick all the most morose ones. Wyn chooses Dawn of the Dead, Craig picks Watership Down and someone that looks like a lot like Lee points us towards Invasion of the Bodysnatchers. Thank the lord for Jo, for coming to save the day is Superman.

That 1963 Show - Cindy's Christmas Quest.

#It's Christmastime...and there's a need to be afraid...

The only mince pies in this podcast are the ones we cast over music, TV and movies: all years and eras under the tree this time out.

Anyway the fab festive foursome fly Tangent Air once more and unwrap the cultural Christmas touchstones of our respective youths to determine which songs are cracking, crazy or just plain crap.

Oh, and a Very Merry Christmas to all of you at home!

This time we have mostly been watching Movies. Craig picks Goodfellas with extra cheese. Lee has had a memory implant and picks Total Recall. Wyn has chosen Tremors, which is nice and Jo recommends a film with lots of men in uniforms, The Hunt for Red October. Fasten your seatbelts for another ride on tangential airways...

After much sloshing about in space/time, the rift has dropped the boys back into 2006 for a special, nay affectionate, retrospective of Torchwood (mainly because we forgot to record it at the time- we were tripping on retcon - mmm, tastes like raspberries...)

Gwen in police uniform, Jack’s arse, Owen’s pouting and Ianto’s coffee are just some of the things we don't talk about in this rambling review of RTD’s 'other' big mid-noughties show.

All is not lost however, as we’re joined by a special, increasingly recurring, guest presenter who does their best (but fails) to rein in the anarchy that is That 1963 Show – the podcast that’s a fixed point in time…which might explain why we don't have a regular release schedule…

Broadsword calling Danny Boy!
This time around the boys look at the movies and music of 1969. Warning! Due to a technical error Matt Bianco appears in this podcast. I'm so, so sorry.
The music you can hear is:
Here Comes the Sun / The Beatles / Abbey Road
Oh Well / Fleetwood Mac / Then Play On
Aquarius - Let the Sunshine In / The 5th Dimension / Age of Aquarius

Just in time (ahem) for the start of the second half of series 6 of Doctor Who the boys take a butchers at the first half. We also take a trip down amnesia lane and play some excerpts from recordings made at the series 6 premiere party at the One Tun pub in old London Town. These were recorded in a busy pub so sound quality varies - you have been warned.

Caution! Alcohol may have been involved.

A huge thanks to Rob, Tony, Jo and Sophie for allowing us to stick a microphone in their faces and press record.

The music in this episode:

I Want to Take You Higher - Sly and the Family Stone (album - Stand)

Good Times Bad Times - Led Zepplin (album Led Zepplin 1)

The End - The Beatles (album Abbey Road)

All classic albums from 1969 and well worth your consideration.

This time around the boys take a look at the music of 2006. Lee offers forth The Arctic Monkeys, Wyn waxes lryical over Flight of the Conchords, and Craig drops the ultimate in XTC weapons. It's a short one this time folks.

It's 1973 and we're 'avin 'oops

Welcome to the first That 1963 Show special (or episode six - like we have a release schedule!) which focuses on the saga that is Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes with a very special guest, who now can't get it wrong (hint, hint*) she leaves that to the rest of us.

Metaphysical discussion and debates on the way British society has changed over time are just two of the things you won't hear here. Perv alerts over PC Annie, Alex Drake and Ford Cortinas, yes. Fun, yes. Gene Hunt quotations, yes. Sensible, no.

So sit back, wear your flares and wing collar shirts (and then change half way through into leggings and pixie boots) and enjoy.

(* OK, it's the lovely Jo from the Flashing Blade podcast.)

Ahoy there. It's part one of our review of 2006. This time around Craig, Lee and Wyn say farewell to a much loved companion when we look at School Reunion, and Wyn just doesn't get it when we look at Genesis of the Bond, aka Casino Royale.

The closing music is by Joe Cornish, from the Adam and Joe BBC 6 Music show, called the Sontum of Qualace.
