After a chance meeting at the War Machines event at Riverside Studios, Richard speaks with journalist and author Jonn Elledge, a regular on the podcast Paper Cuts.

We have free ranging chat based on the loose theme of Jonn's latest book, A History of The World in 47 Borders, discussing how Jonn became a Doctor Who fan, how Doctor Who deals with the topic of borders and how, like any listener to this podcast, at all times at least 30% of Jonn's brain is dedicated to some aspect of Doctor Who.
