Episode 159 - A Perfect (Roman) Match

2018 brings another new Verity! feature: Perfect Match, in which a Verity selects a classic Who story and a modern Who story that go together...for whatever reason. Join Erika, Lynne, and Tansy as we compare and contrast Tansy's perfect match: "The Romans" and "The Fires of Pompeii". What ties do you see between these two stories? How has storytelling evolved between these two tales, and how does that affect the show? Let us know what you think in the comments! ^E Also covered: Lynne loves seeing David Tennant say nice things about Jodie Whittaker! Tansy can't wait for series 11 with its women writers!
