Pack your sausage sandwiches and your thermos - but don't forget your truncheon as we might need it if we want to get to Plymouth. Photo ID? Well, there are a load of pictures to choose from in the priest hole - that's if we don't end up getting stoned before we start. It's all go in this skull smashing instalment : but will Steve Cranford choose the same thing as your host as the highlight of this blood-curdling episode?

The 100th Doctor Who story - maybe we should have held out and had it as the 100th Happy Times and Places! Gah - there's always clarity after the event! Anyway, this has been one that has never quite done it for yoiur host, Toby Hadoke: and he is open about this at the start... but of course, the whole point of the podcast is to get a special guest (in this case presenter and beefcake Stephen Cranford) to be so enthusiastic that Toby can't help but feel the love. So draw your curtains, summon your raven and prepare to sacrfice the next hour or so on the Stones of Blood.

So, after the epic journey through Marco Polo let's fire the starting pistol on Doctor Who's next quest. We've gone from historical back to science-fiction, with the return of the writer who has proved himself a boon to the prodcution team. But it's fair to say it's an episode during which quite a lot goes wrong, and there were a few hiccups on the way to it too. But there are new monsters, a well known guest star who has a couple of unique Doctor Who claims to fame, and some press interest. So zip up your wet suits and don't trip on your flippers, and let's dive into The Sea of Death.

Not much about the episode (The Legend of Ruby Sunday) in this one really - as is Indefinable Magic's wont, it wanders of on a tangeant all of its own. This time the inspiration comes from that joy we feel when an element from the show's past comes back to reconnect us to our childhoods. It also takes in some of the convoluted ways these returns have been disguised and what it must be like for the actors to get a call about a role they first played decades ago. This is pretty much a first draft, one-take broadcast, done on the fly during journeys to and from various jobs and personal obligations and recorded literally minutes before publishing . So forgive any slight compromises in sound quality and the odd fluff.

Ed Stradling revels in the many deaths that Eric Saward serves up in this very gruesome but highly entertaining story. Or is it a violent aberration that is too grim for a family fantasy show? Food for thought and for chat in the second part of this feature length adventure that is actually the same length as normal but doesn't seem like it is.

So, what to we do when we don't like an aspect of a Doctor Who story? Well, we are Doctor Who fans, so we behave utterly rationally of course. For this episode of Indefinable Magic, the way in which we are drawn to criticise the thing we love comes into the spotlight. Is there such a thing as objectively good and bad, and who has the monopoly on saying what "true" Doctor Who is? As ever, these are attempts to rationally examine an aspect of the show and the fan experience, and are not intended as vehicles for criticism or value judgements on a particular episode.

This one has been done as originally broadcast - as a pair of feature length episodes. So it's two things per instlalment that have to be chosen by special guest Ed Stradling. It's a story controversial for its tone and content, and one that would have an impact and influence on the future of the show. And for your host and Ed, it's one that they both made a documentary about, so there's a little extra perspecive on the VAM as a nice bonus.

Remember - these podcasts are not intended as reviews or value judgements on the latest episodes of Doctor Who. They are audio essays based upon some aspect of the story and weaved into a - hopefully - thoughtful and sometimes humourous monolgue.

Dot and Bubble could provoke discussions about all sorts of different subjects, but for this edition of Indefinable Magic we will stick our heads into the world of social media. It's not just the denizens of Finetime who distract themselves from reality by spending their lives in a curated online world. Doctor Who fandom does a lot of its appreciation of the show online too, and the Dot and Bubble has plenty to say to us about chums, chat and chapping in cyberspace.
