The Who Watch Podcast

The Massacre aka "Anne Chaplet's Fringe"

Season 3, Ep. 5

Get ready for some sectarian violence, and non-existent French accents.


Beth and David are back in Paris, this time in the 1570s, for a rather dark and violent adventure - The Massacre (not like the title gave it away).


There's a celebration of Steven, a complete bemusement at Anne Chaplet, a brilliant monologue from one William Hartnell - and the arrival of a brand new companion!


Beth and David are back next Wednesday (ish) - in the meantime, you can get in touch via @whowatchpodcast, or send them some love via email - thewhowatchpodcast@gmail.com.


Plus, the gang are asking a favour - send this podcast on to three of your Who loving mates, and they'll be forever grateful!


You can also tip The Who Watch Podcast via Ko-Fi, if you'd like!


Find socials, the Song Of The Story playlists, and other fun things here, including Beth's ruddy quiz book!
