About us

500 Year Diary is a new Doctor Who podcast by the people who brought you Flight Through Entirety.

When Flight Through Entirety started back in 2014, we were discussing Doctor Who stories that were more than 50 years old; our most recent FTE episode was about a Doctor Who episode that’s merely eight years old.

We’re in danger of catching up with the present day.

So to give the most recent seasons of Doctor Who the chance to recede into the past, we’ve decided to slow down the FTE production schedule and to start a new podcast, concentrating on different aspects of the show — things we’ve never discussed before, topics we’ve never properly addressed, and things that FTE only covered briefly.

That new podcast is 500 Year Diary.

Each season of 500 Year Diary will cover a theme — an idea, a trope, a genre, a person or a character. Our first season is called New Beginnings: in it, we talk talk about reboots, relaunches and pilot epiodes. Our second season is called The Second Coming, where we talk about the second time a monster or villain appears in Doctor Who.
