Latest Podcast Episodes

After last weeks disappointing episode, the chaps at Who's He? had high hopes for the much anticipated Neil Gaiman story The Doctor's Wife. Well, neither Paul nor Phil were disappointed but did they think it was the story to change the face of Who as we know it or did they not get caught up in the hype?

Also, the other topic of discussion is Steven Moffat who had a bit of a rant this week at fans who post spoilers and the reaction of the fans on the forums, which nearly leads Paul into giving away his dark secrets of the internet!

In this episode I review the really brilliant episode The Curse Of The Black Spot. Send your feedback to whoitm@hotmail.com, whoitm@gmail.com and to the Facebook group.

Next time I will review Neil Gaimen's first Doctor Who (hopfully we get more) The Doctor's Wife.

So much to love about this episode — Neil Perryman's got a great rundown at Tachyon TV — but let's just focus on love itself.

Bob, Jo! and Tony hoist the sails, walk the plank and, well... other stuff. Yup, it's The Curse Of The Black Spot. There's stuff from Prof Dave and Lillibet, and the Children of Time are...well... cute....

Episode 2 of 3

"Wind's in the east, mist comin' in Like something is brewin', about to begin. Can't put me finger on what lies in store, But I fear what's to happen all happened before..."

Frobisher's gone. The Computer vanished. Astra's been away forever. And even Destina wants nothing else but to return to Gallifrey, leaving the TARDIS forever, just like the rest of them. Everybody leaves, the Doctor says. And so does he.

But even though the Doctor seeks a quiet retirement in the cast of the West End production of Mary Poppins, the universe doesn't seem to let him escape. Who is the phantom voice plaguing the performers of London's Prince Edward Theatre? What do the evil, alien warlike Persecutors want at the theatre? And will Death finally reveal the reason he has followed the Doctor across the spectrum of space and time?

With an army of alien Persecutors on the doorstep, and a temporal rift opening just off centre stage, now more than ever does Earth need a Doctor. But time has run out - for him and for everyone - and soon he will find out exactly what it means to die on stage...

This week spoliergate exploded all over uk radio, tv and of course the internet with Stephen Moffatt's on air rant about fans spoiling the plot for other viewers but also this week saw the long awiated screening of Neil Gaiman's The Doctor's Wife, delayed from last year but well worth the wait as I tell you in my somewhat gushing review.

End theme tune is a remix of the Doctor Who Theme by Tony Gallichan of The Flashing Blade Podcast, Tony can be contacted here show@flashingblade.org.uk

Beware the mad woman! Cam and Tony chat about the wonderful The Dotor's Wife. There's also some feedback and your last chance to win a box set of first Doctor lost stories...

The unedited ramblings about series six continue. This week Tom gets a little too interested in the urination situation on board the TARDIS, and Louis tries desperately to deny the death of the Zune, as they discuss Doctor Who: The Curse of the Black Spot.

In episode 21 I review The Day Of The Moon. That's it really. Send your feedback to whoitm@hotmail.com, whoitm@gamil.com or on the Facebook group.

The next episode might be out tomorrow, or sometime in the week.

Summary:
In tribute to the recently lost Nicholas Courtney (The Brigadier) and Elisabeth Sladen (Sarah Jane Smith), the Professor How Parody Podcast has kindly created The 5 Professors, a DWPA Easter Special (slightly delayed in the Vortex!)

Staring Professor How’s own Graeme “The2ndDoctor” Sheridan, A the Cultdom Collective’s Ian “The6thDoctor” Bisset and Dave “AC” Cooper, Professor Dave’s Ark in Space’s “Professor” Dave Keep, Elizabeth “Lillybet the Wonder Girl” Peloso & Doctor Thomas.

After months of anticipation, series six of Doctor Who opens with a bang with The Impossible Astronaut and Day of the Moon and the nearly 50 year old franchise may never be the same again. Did the season opener live up to expectations? And what exactly will all this mean for the upcoming series? Join Derek, Eric and Lindsay as we ring in the new season with thoughtful debate, insightful criticism but mostly just stunned disbelief at what nightmare-knitter Steven Moffat offered up last weekend.

Notes from Nuge

Fandom is so atomized: Take any two wildly popular genre figures such as "Doctor Who" and "Neil Gaiman" and you'll find many fans of one nearly unaware of the other. In this Time Dilation edition of 2MTL, Chicks Dig Time Lords co-editor Tara O'Shea and I take a walk down the the shelves full of Gaiman's prose, comics and screen work to provide a little explanation of why those of us in the middle of the Venn diagram are so excited.

But first: a traditional two-minute segment, as I tackle "Spoilergate."
