Merry Christmas! I mention it here because we barely do in the episode! Because we're too busy covering Doctor Who: Flux (11:00, with full spoilers throughout) and Wrath of Man (26:47)!
And yes, Wrath of Man is replacing the promised Spider-Man: No Way Home review, as we couldn't make it to the cinema due to Omicron. Sigh.
