491: Doctor Who is back in 2026, but where will it stream?

We've had the good news about Doctor Who's long-term survival, but we still don't know who will run it, or where it will stream...

This week, Christian Cawley and James McLean bring you a long discussion about the recent news from the BBC, as well as speculating on where the next iteration of Doctor Who might be streamed.

We also consider the approach the upcoming CBeebies animation show might take, in light of the abandoned Nelvana animation, Lance Parkin's 1998 novel "The Infinity Doctors," and the K-9 TV series.
