  • Episode 125: The Skull Means Nothing (The Armageddon Factor)
    Jul 14 2024
    We reach the end of the Key to Time saga, where the production team decided to put the finale in the hands of a “safe pair of hands” – Bob Baker & Dave Martin (wut?). Anyway, they give us a bonkers story where two planets are fighting a deadly nuclear war, a shadowy figure manipulates things from in between the two planets, there’s a rogue Time Lord who presents as a used car salesman (ummmm… oooookay!), and the final segment of the key is… a person? It’s time for us to talk about The Armageddon Factor! Join us as we discuss the potential genocide of the Zeons, how Merak is an absolute tool, lament K9 becoming a damsel in distress, how Game Theory comes into play, and wander what happened to the Zeons (and how it’s totally glossed over). We also ponder whether Romana joined the TARDIS by the White Guardian put an ad in the Time Lord newspapers (claiming to be the President), looking for a companion for the Doctor… Oh, and Anthony proclaims that he’ll have dinner with anyone!

  • Episode 124: Doctor Who Does Kaiju (The Power of Kroll)
    Jun 30 2024
    Big Methane, Swampies, the legendary Philip Madoc, and Brussell Sprout-looking Giant Squid-Gods? It’s that time Season 16 where things start to drop off a bit, as we get to The Power of Kroll! There’s some drama behind the scenes on this one – including actors being turned green for much longer than planned, and script writer Robert Holmes being a little petulant! Join us as we discuss elaborate uniform designs for rig workers, colonialism (of course) and the revival of associated tired tropes that we have seen so many times before (hello companion sacrifice!), how the roguish Rohm-Dutt is actually quite charismatic, whether the Swampies would taste minty or of seaweed, and how the whole story is crafted around a fart joke. Also worth listening out for is Julie’s rage over badly handled woodwind. If you would like to watch along with us, you can find the entirety of the Season available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

  • Episode 123: Tamm on Tamm (The Androids of Tara)
    Jun 16 2024
    We’re off to the planet Tara, where we encounter a medieval society that has electric crossbows, electric swords, and androids. And may possibly be aware of alien life? It’s confusing. Anyway, there’s a dastardly plan afoot by the cunning Count Grendel to seize the throne and then…? Well, it’s not high stakes, but it’s a lot of fun. It’s The Androids of Tara! Join us as we talk about the Doctor’s reluctance to actually be involved in this adventure, the Taran Wood Beast’s need for a hug, the underappreciation of Madame Lamia, the Zodiac symbols in Taran society, flashbacks to the Pertwee era, and how Count Grendel consistently just steals the show. Additionally, Reilly figures out a potential alternative storyline for this serial that may have been a bit more interesting what we got on screen! If you would like to watch along with us, you can find the entirety of the Season available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).
