Doctor Who TARDISblend Banner

In Doctor Who 9.6 “The Woman Who Lived,” on the trail of a dangerous artifact, the Doctor (Peter Capaldi) arrives in England 1651, and crosses paths with Ashildr (Maisie Williams). The pair team up to chase down the gem known as the Eyes of Hades – but the artifact turns out to be more than expected; and the Doctor’s concern for Ashildr is rising…

During TARDISblend 91, we discuss the second appearance of Maisie Williams as Ashildr (or “Lady Me”) in a story that may have implications on the overall story arc of this season of Doctor Who.

All this and more on the latest TARDISblend podcast!
