In this week’s show we jump into a parallel universe where the good Doctor is an Earthbound scientist, tinkering with his time machine in his back yard with the non-canonical "Dr. Who And The Daleks". We finally get around to seeing this alternative version of Terry Nation’s Daleks story.

Also, no news this week, but we have plenty of stuff to talk about with Shaun refreshed from a journey to the great state of Colorado.

And, of course, there’s feedback!

Enjoy!

 

Ohren zu, hier wird gesungen. Ahnlich wie in der Folge, die wir im heutigen Cast durch die Mangel drehen (Rings of Akhaten), wird auch in diesem Whocast gesungen. Das hebt zwar die Stimmung, aber ist genau wie in der Folge nicht immer schon. Wir hoffen dennoch, dass ihr mehr Spass haben werdet als an der eigentlich Folge. Wir hatten ihn definitiv. Ahnlich wie bei der Besprechung zu "The Bells of Saint John" hat auch hier das Mischpult keine wirkliche Beziehung zum H2 aufbauen konnen. Darum musst Ihr Euch leider mit dem etwas weiter im Raum stehendem H2-Micro-Ton-Aufnahmen begnugen. Aber ohne diese, ware uns dieses musikalische Kleinod gar nicht erhalten geblieben.

Happiness Patrol Episode 112: Cybermites and Welsh Quarries

"We have to get the thrip-wibble to modulate the tharack bar."

In which we broadcast in glorious stereo, a cyber pig gets locked in a cupboard of shame, there is a terrible flute solo and we check ourselves before we wreck ourselves.

Reviews: Nightmare in Silver
Air Date: 16th May 2013
Additional notes: Guest star Warwick Davis has been in more SF films than you can shake a light sabre at. But we chose to name this episode after a Ricky Gervais mockumentary he starred in. It isn’t very funny. At one point, he gets stuck in a dog flap.

The day has nearly arrived - the DOCTOR WHO Series 7b Finale, where we learn "The Name of the Doctor" AND all about Clara's deal.

SO, it's time to speculate, theorize, hypothesize, guess, and finally throw our hands up in exasperation but also exultation at the mysteries Steven Moffat have devised.

John has a good solid theory, one even Will thinks is more likely to be true. Will has a more fanciful and longer term one (includes 50th WAG).

Includes discussion of "She Said, He Said", the prologue to the finale as well as bringing in clues from the various trailers for the episode, information from the Doctor Who novels (we BOTH mine that for theory support), and even hints and tidbits from the Moff, Matt, Jenna, et al!

If you want some speculation and theories to help you solidify your own theory, take a listen!

If you want to laugh at some bad guesses (most likely), take a listen!

We recorded this on Monday, and since then, I've thought, "Oh, I'm even LESS Close than I thought", then I felt "Hey, i MIGHT be onto something!", then I realized that again Moffat is several moves ahead of us on the chessboard... as usual!

PS - No trivia on this episode.

I've long heard tales from other podcasters of 'cursed' episodes that have either been lost to time or were just vast struggles to get out. So, I guess it was inevitable that I'd have one of those misfortunes myself. Yes, this episode had tons of stumbling blocks, almost too many to name, but its finally here (albeit about 2 months late!). I do hope that it is worth the wait!

Anyway, join me on this episode as I finally discuss the last three episodes of S9 -- 'Face the Raven', 'Heaven Sent', and 'Hell Bent' -- finally polishing off my thoughts on last year's Doctor Who stories. I do hope you all will join me and, as always, glad to have you all aboard. Enjoy the ride!
