After a brief break, we resume our journey through the Time War as we enter Act Two of the story. This time another Timelord enters the foray. We join the Doctor’s granddaughter, Susan with two stories. First, it’s Big Finish Short Trips 7.10 – “All Hands on Deck”, featuring Susan and the Eighth Doctor. Then we move on to the box set, Big Finish’s “Susan’s War”.

Hear what we thought of these stories, plus a quick recap of what we’ve been up to while we were gone.

Several program notes this week. We're a big hit in France. The fabulous novelization cover by Roy Knipe generates much talk on Twitter. A major change to the show coming next week -- tune in and find out --

-- but before you do that, stick around this week. The always funny and ever-unpredictable Bill Evenson (of The Frankenstein Minute Podcast and Reality Bomb!) is back. We discuss Frankenstein, his Doctor Who humor book (co-written with repeat Doctor Who Literature guest Stacey Smith?), which is the better show: Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul, and... occasionally, just very occasionally, we talk about "Doctor Who and the Sontaran Experiment".

Bill has a memorably rough time with "20 Questions". Will he finish? Will he be the first person in the history of the show to NOT get the answer?

Jason breaks down what CultBox calls his "forensic look" at the text. Who's the better narrator -- Jason, or Jon Culshaw?

Links this week:
We're thrilled to make CultBox's September podcast roundup.
Bill and Stacey Smith? wrote a very funny book.
Jason previously interviewed Bill and Stacey about it on Trap One.
Jason returns to Trap One to discuss The Celestial Toymaker this week.
And Bill can be  heard weekly on The Frankenstein Minute.

Se tem uma coisa que Doctor Who faz bem é introduzir mistérios que fazem os fãs mergulharem em teorias.

No caso da Divisão, não é diferente! De Fugitive of the Judoon, passando por The Timeless Children e finalmente por The Halloween Apocalypse, essa organização vem sendo uma das maiores interrogações em nossas cabeças. Quais as reais motivações da Divisão? Qual o envolvimento da Doutora na organização? Qual a relação de Swarm e Azure com a Criança Atemporal? Venha analisar e questionar todos esses dados com a gente!

E o mais importante. Lembre-se: A divisão não existe. A Divisão não tem agentes. Esse podcast nunca sequer foi ao ar.

The time has finally arrived. Doctor Who is back on TV and with a festive episode, too. This week we examine the first story in Series 13, or what’s being referred to as Doctor Who: Flux. Hear what we thought of Chapter One: The Halloween Apocalypse.

Plus, be sure to listen for the keyword in this week’s podcast show to get your first entry for a chance to win a copy of Doctor Who Fluxx the card game from our friends over at Looney Labs.

Enjoy!

This week, Nathan, Simon, Peter and their new friend Mathew find ourselves wandering some space corridors in search of some kind of button that will bust us out of this time loop. Are we on board the USS Voyager during one of its less successful high-concept episodes? Or do we find out — to our horror — that we’re on a Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS?

Notes and links

We don’t mention him by name, but the writer of this episode is Steve Thompson, who also wrote The Curse of the Black Spot (about which, more here) and Time Heist (co-written by Steven Moffat).

The eponymous Law of Conservation of Detail can be found explained on the TV Tropes wiki. In short, only detail relevant to the story will be included in an episode, particularly a constrained 42-minute television episode. Its corollary is that any detail included in an episode should be expected to be relevant to the story.

Simon alludes to the film 127 Hours (2010), in which a young American man’s arm is trapped under a boulder in a canyoneering accident and so he decides after five days to break the bones and then cut it off in order to free himself. Somewhat surprisingly, Simon significantly underestimates the number of hours it would take someone to make that decision.

We can also be heard on the Blakes 7 podcast Maximum Power, whose coverage of Series B will be starting soon, with a Very Special Episode That I Absolutely Can’t Tell You About.

And finally, there’s our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. No new episode this week, but we recommend the episodes in our back catalogue where we talk about Enterprise. There’s usually some good ranting to be had.

In short, only detail relevant to the story will be included in an episode, particularly a constrained 42-minute television episode. Its corollary is that any detail included in an episode should be expected to be relevant to the story.

Simon alludes to the film 127 Hours (2010), in which a young American man’s arm is trapped under a boulder in a canyoneering accident and so he decides after five days to break the bones and then cut it off in order to free himself. Somewhat surprisingly, Simon significantly underestimates the number of hours it would take someone to make that decision.

This week, Nathan, Simon, Peter and their new friend Mathew find ourselves wandering some space corridors in search of some kind of button that will bust us out of this time loop. Are we on board the USS Voyager during one of its less successful high-concept episodes? Or do we find out — to our horror — that we’re on a Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS?
