Doc gets crowned president, Gallifrey gets invaded twice, and Leela and K-9 get no goodbye

The post C097 The Invasion of Time appeared first on Who Back When | A Doctor Who Podcast.

Should old Doctors be forgotten?

I only just processed that this was the only episode of Doctor Who that aired in 2019. The one and only single one. Which is a little weird because 2019 was so damn long, at least in my life. And throughout that long span of time there was only one single episode of Doctor Who to keep me sane. Pity. It’s Resolution written by Chris Chibnall and aired on January 1, 2019.

Guess what? It's the return of Paul, fresh from his recent sojourn in LA, who joins Simon, Giles and Richard to review the latest episode of Doctor Who - The Haunting of Villa Diodati. Everyone loves Maxine Alderton's first entry to the canon and while we wonder how it took Chris Chibnall so long to find a script like this, we detour into Latin and Greek and, of course, Big Finish. It's our longest short episode by some distance!

Please like or share our podcast with people who will enjoy it. You can rate us directly on Apple Podcasts or Podchaser.com

The opening music is Three Guitars Mood 2 and the closing music is possibly the worst ever version of the Doctor Who theme from Richard on ukulele and kazoo.

So you want to continue your successful show but need to recast your leading man. What do you do?

Why you make things as difficult as possible for your bemused audience to accept him, of course!

The Power of the Daleks sees impish impostor Pat Troughton cackling evilly, talking about himself in the third person and doing his very best to disingratiate himself with the good cop / bad cop companions, Polly and Ben.

Luckily there are some seemingly servile Daleks to distract their attention, along with some crafty colonists, an increasingly mad professor and Vulcan’s worst ever spy.

Polly wears shorts, the Doctor wears a silly hat, and Ben wears down everyone’s nerves with his unmanaged anger.

Does Valmar desire dominatrices?

Who would win in a fight between Hartnell and Troughton?

Will the Doctor’s recorder soon be in need of a rinse?

And did Jim and Martin find the new bloke a refreshing change or more like a fart in the face from a mercury swamp?

Listen to find out!

Also available on Spotify.
