A new month means a new LIST MAKERS episode!

This time, our top classic era Doctor Who writers.

If you’ve never heard a List Makers episode before, these are 20m chats based around making a list related to a Doctor Who topic and discussing our similarities, differences, and whatever else comes up during the chat!

If you’re enjoying this format, write in and let us know. Suggestions for future lists to be drawn from The Hat of Rassilon are also welcome; get in touch!

Twitter, Facebook or email us old-school style at hello@thedwshow.net

On the brand new Trap One Podcast Adam (@AdamJClegg), Ruth, (@UndiscoveredAdv), Colin (@Colin_neal) and Mark (@QuarkMcMalus) discuss the new Target novelisation of The Zygon Invasion by Peter Harness.

You can order the book here.

For the first time, Jason is joined by a guest, prolific Doctor Who non-fiction writer, longtime fan, epidemiologist, and a former profile subject on Morgan Freeman's "Through The Wormhole", the inimitable Stacey Smith? (the questionmark is part of her name).

In the first part of the episode, Jason goes in-depth on the text, prose, and themes of The Cave Monsters. Then, as Stacey joins in, together, we discuss and debate Malcolm Hulke's first novelization, "Doctor Who and the Cave Monsters". Stacey previous wrote about the parent TV story for the Black Archive series, which she and I previous discussed on Trap One, which you can listen to below.

This week we also pay tribute to Chris Achilleos, one of the great Doctor Who illustrators, who painted the cover and drew the internal illustrations for The Cave Monsters. Chris Achilleos passed away on Wednesday, December 9, 2021.

You heard it here first, from the podcast that the show is based on rather than the other way around ™.

The end of our first season that we podcasted along with the episodes as they aired. So that’s gotta be something important in our history right? And three episodes from now we’ll basically have finished up this whole era on the podcast, with our first podcast along regeneration episode. Anyway, it’s The Vanquishers, written by Chris Chibnall and aired on December 5, 2021.

Show-notes:
1:20:  Spoiler Alert: How to Pronounce did not help.
1:46: The clip I found is the beginning of this interview with Azhur Saleem and Jamie Magnus Stone.
7:40: I tried to find out if “tapestratic” was a word, and it is not. (Editor’s note: But as always, you can find it being used online in, you guessed it, an academic(-ish) article: Becoming-Jaguar: Escaping Dialectical Negation Through Monistic Process Metaphysics)
9:22: Check out our movie trilogy podcast, Triple Play: A Movie Trilogy Podcast.
24:17: The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument is cool as hell and you should all check it out. Tweet me if you have any questions about it, I love my work.
24:34: Just outing my github, I suppose, but here’s the code I wrote that gets run every night on any data we take.
24:55: Wikipedia cites an internal memo from Barry Letts where he names The Master explicitly because it’s another academic degree like a doctorate. This memo, however, 404’s so I’ll just link Wikipedia.
28:12: ToohotforTV
31:18: We’re (not (not (not))) going to make chocolate on Cooking with Trust Your Doctor.
32:12: For more on Gan and the failures of his limited, check out our Blake’s 7 podcast, Zenith: A Blake’s 7 Podcast.
38:06: We watched the Prisoner (2009) over on our classic sci-fi podcast, Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast.
1:01:32: Good news, knowyourmeme is here to explain the “Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?” meme.
1:06:15: Here’s that Paul Cornell tweet that spurred on this discussion.
1:28:16: I will not be able to find this tweet again, it’s been almost a week since it was posted and things in the twitterspace just fall into the void.
1:29:02: Here’s the TARDIS wiki page for Shobogan (species).
1:33:53: Doctor Who Gives a F#*! has a great website, you should go look at it.
1:42:02: To keep up with our Inevitable adventures, go and subscribe to Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast.

This week, the Doctor and River Song get married in an episode that completely rewrites itself before our very eyes, and the eyepatch anecdote makes its triumphant return to the show. You are all cordially invited to The Wedding of River Song.

Notes and links

Richard identifies some possible inspirations for this episode, including Cloud Atlas (2004) by David Mitchell and The Master and Margarita (1967) by Russian author Mikhail Bulgakov.

Nathan mentions Steven Moffatt’s adaptation of Dracula (2020), in which two of the three episodes use the same narrative framing technique he uses in this episode, where the events of the episode start to impinge on the story being told in flashback at the start of the episode.

Steven B calls The Doctor’s Wife a “nerd-baiting title” in our episode on that story, called, appropriately Nerd-Baiting Title. Nathan levels the same accusation against the title of this story.

JUST when you thought there was no more Eighth Doctor to novelise, he pops up in a Fourth Doctor book.

Stephen Gallagher recently wrote a new short story featuring Paul McGann's Doctor, which was included as part of his novelisation of Warriors' Gate.

Kenny and Matt chat their way through the story, which includes a brief reading from it, before hearing from editor Steve Cole and the writer himself.

A fuller chat with Steve Gallagher appears in The Power of Three podcast, episode 128.

Notes and links

Richard identifies some possible inspirations for this episode, including Cloud Atlas (2004) by David Mitchell and The Master and Margarita (1967) by Russian author Mikhail Bulgakov.

Nathan mentions Steven Moffat’s adaptation of Dracula (2020), in which two of the three episodes use the same narrative framing technique he uses in this episode, where the events of the episode start to impinge on the story being told in flashback at the start of the episode.
