Season is over. Christmas doesn't come until next month. But the cast is giving out an early Holiday in this episode as Mark and Christian show off what they did at Hurricane Who: Category Five!

What does Missy identity spell for Doctor Who as a whole? Good things or Bad? What is the meaning behind "3 months"? Should the Doctor have kicked Clara out the door for what she tried to do? And what of the return of UNIT? And the finale's shocking death? Is there a way that person can return? And speaking of returns, who liked the surprise return of a beloved character in an unexpected form? And is this truly the end of the Doctor/Clara partnership? All these questions asked, plus talk of the nature of spoilers and a brief discussion of the jolly cameo in the end credits.

It's been 75 episodes since the WHOniverse was born. And to celebrate we have something special. We at the WHOniverse have many a times spoken of the link Doctor Who has with Game of Thrones. We've even joked about it. But now, we have living breathing proof of said connection. For today's episode features an interview with Tony Way. He has acted in both shows. And he's sharing stories about doing so with us. Learn about what it was like to shoot his scenes in Deep Breath. Learn about his time on Game of Thrones as a minor but important character. And learn why Trish loves his character. We even cross into yet another fandom by discussing his work in Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Enjoy our anniversary gift to you. Enjoy while you can. For our next episode will feature the review of the season 8 finale, and the dead will rise.

It's double-episode review time on the WHOniverse! First, grab your spray-paint can and make a door as we review Flatline. Check out what we thought of Clara acting as the Doctor. What did we think of Fenton, the grouchy old guy and Rigsy, Clara's episode companion?

Then it’s over the river and through the Forest of the Night as we review In the Forest of the Night. Find out who in the WHOniverse thinks Danny Pink should've been in more episodes. Learn about the Tunguska Blast and how humanity has the habit to brush things off. Perk up your ears for a Lord of the Rings shout out.

We are taking a break from our reviews on the new series of Doctor Who to celebrate Halloween! Flatline and In the Forest of the Night will both be discussed next week. This week features two interviews. The first with Dr. Geek himself, Scott Viguie, will be all about the science of Halloween plus a few theories on Doctor Who science. Then we have Talon and Alida of A Couple of Geeks talking about cosplay... We thought it appropriate because Halloween does mean dressing in costume as well. So listen to the latest episode... Don't be afraid, it's only Halloween!!!!
