Then we head to the Main Range title, The Wormery, with Iris joining the Sixth Doctor for an adventure. Hear our reviews of both of these audios.

Also, the news of the week.

MarkWHO42's Halloween Celebration continues as the team welcomes AMC's The Walking Dead actress, Dawn Amber Fox. First, the team investigate the latest MarkWHO42 news. Mark and Iggy resurrect special guest host, former cohost, Trish Helm-Freyre. Then, the interrogation begins as the team interview actress Dawn Amber Fox. Amber reveals how she started in acting and how she landed her terrorizing role on AMC's The Walking Dead, Officer Bello, as well as her upcoming projects. Finally, the latest segment of WHO's Listening with Mark Baumgarten and Christopher baggott focusses on The New Adventures of Bernice Summerfield : The Unbound Universe.

It's time to slow down and get a bit reflective. Inspired by Peter Capaldi's "farewell tour" at New York Comic Con, Deb, Lynne, and Tansy take a thoughtful look back at Peter Capaldi's tenure. We discuss the impact he's had on the show, his legacy and examine his character arc as the 12th Doctor. Sure, we know he has one more story before the serious postmortem's begin, but we'd rather do this while we can still smile!

What do you think Peter has brought to the role and, more importantly, what do you think his imprint will be on the show? Leave us a comment and let us know what you think!

^D

Also covered:

• Lynne added Downtime by Dylan Reese to her Doctor Who Library AND a delightful Rory Funko to her AF collection.
• Tansy is (justifiably!) excited about her podcasts Frankentastic and Sheep Might Fly.
• Deb was so delighted by Peter Capaldi at New York Comic Con she made it this week's topic!

It brings me great delight to say that friend of the show (and podcaster in his own right), Hayden Gribble, has penned a book, which is coming out on the 16th of this month. Pretty much around the time you'll hear this episode.

That book is called Child Out Of Time, a memoir of sorts, about a Doctor Who fan growing up in the Wilderness years of the series.

With a cover by Doctor Who author Paul Magrs and a foreword by Andrew 'Full Circle' Smith, this really is a neat thing.

So, to do my part in letting everyone know the book's out - find it at Amazon, folks - I've gone back to the Doctor Who Show episode #2 (from February, 2016).

Why? Because I had Hayden on that episode. You see, Hayden's always fascinated me from the point of view that in Who fandom we have a bunch of people who watched the classic era and most of us have continued to enjoy Nu-Who. Or they're people who started with Nu-Who and some might have gone back to the classics, but I'd wager most haven't, even if they appreciate the history and gravitas it gives the new material.

But Hayden's different. He didn't see the Classic Era on its first run, but then became a fan in the wilderness years, thanks initially to the TV Movie, so was primed and ready to be a major fan when Nu Who started, just like a Classic era fan... but was still this young guy at the time with a different story to most.

That sort of thing's really interesting to me, so I wanted to chat with him on the show about being a younger who fan who likes the classic era, as a bit of a conversation piece.

Now, towards the end of the chat back in 2016, Hayden mentions some projects coming up and one of them was Child out of Time... so it seemed highly appropriate to dust off this tape, and give you a taste of Hayden and I chatting about his years growing up with the show which he's now expanded upon - in quite a major way - in Child out of Time.

Or they're people who started with Nu-Who and some might have gone back to the classics, but I'd wager most haven't, even if they appreciate the history and gravitas it gives the new material.

But Hayden's different. He didn't see the Classic Era on its first run, but then became a fan in the wilderness years, thanks initially to the TV Movie, so was primed and ready to be a major fan when Nu Who started, just like a Classic era fan... but was still this young guy at the time with a different story to most.

That sort of thing's really interesting to me, so I wanted to chat with him on the show about being a younger who fan who likes the classic era, as a bit of a conversation piece.

Now, towards the end of the chat back in 2016, Hayden mentions some projects coming up and one of them was Child out of Time... so it seemed highly appropriate to dust off this tape, and give you a taste of Hayden and I chatting about his years growing up with the show which he's now expanded upon - in quite a major way - in Child out of Time.

We have a long time to wait for new Who (not counting Peter Capaldi's swan song this Christmas) but already rumors are swirling about how incoming showrunner Chris Chibnall will give us his vision of the good Doctor. In the meantime, we have DVDs headed our way along with an animated version of Shada, the red-headed stepchild of not-quite-lost classic Who stories. And this week's Second Chances features author and Reality Bomb podcaster Graeme Burk, with his (and our) look at..."The Pyramid at the End of the World"!

"I don't work for anybody. I'm just having fun."

Not so much fun for the cold turkeys, the cattle-prodded Mandrels and the eviscerated punters on the good ship Empress though.

Yes, this is Nightmare of Eden and 'nightmare' could be seen as an apposite epithet by the crew and viewer alike. It's a heady cocktail of spiked drinks, unfortunate zips and insurance policy wordings.

K9 needs some obedience classes, the Doctor shrieks about his extremities and Romana gets a nasty love bite (but not as nasty as her dress), while Tryst accentuates the silliness, Fisk makes it uniformly worse and Rigg turns on, tunes in and drops out.

So did Jim and Martin find the story as first class as the toilet facilities or were they glad when the nightmare was over?

Find out here.

It’s the final season of the Classic Series of Doctor Who, and to celebrate, Brendan, Nathan and Richard are blowing up either an archaelogical site or the entire world. Let this be our last Battlefield!

Notes and links

The Brigadier’s wife Doris is played by Angela Douglas, who played a major role in a four Carry On films: Carry on Cowboy (1965), Carry on Screaming! (1966) Carry On… Follow That Camel (1967) and Carry On… Up the Khyber (1968).

Richard Franklin’s novel Operation H.A.T.E tells a the weird story of Captain M, whose narrative has been completely stripped of all overt Doctor Who references for intellectual property reasons.

Fans of serious scholarly treatments of Arthurian Mythology will enjoy Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975) and John Boorman’s Excalibur (1981).

Michael Kerrigan’s direction of the final battle was clearly based on the Batley Townswomen’s Guild recreation of the Battle of Pearl Harbour.

This story’s writer, Ben Aaronovitch, is now an accomplished novelist. But, back in the day, he had terrible difficulties meeting publication deadlines. Marc Platt ended up writing the novelisation of Battlefield, and Kate Orman had to step in to finish a crucial New Adventures novel, So Vile a Sin, when Aaronovitch couldn’t meet the deadline (he claimed his hard drive had failed).

This title was released in October 2017. It will be exclusively available to buy from the BF website until November 30th 2017, and on general sale after this date. Bath, 1756 - and a very dashing gentleman known only as the Doctor is newly arrived in town, accompanied by his lady friends Mrs Clarke and Mrs Ramon. He's created a stir among the gentlefolk of Georgian high society - and a stir in the heart of merry widow Mrs Theodosia Middlemint, rumour has it. They are not the only strangers from abroad causing tongues to wag, however. The mysterious Lady Clara, come from Amsterdam in the company of the noble Captain Van Der Meer, has the whole of Bath agog. Who is she, really? What is she, really? But there's something terrible beneath the veneer of Georgian gentility. As awful a horror as the Doctor has ever exposed, hidden inside Balsam's Brassworks. Something that needs to be brought to light, for the sake of all humanity. Written By: Marc Platt Directed By: Jamie Anderson Cast Colin Baker (The Doctor), Lisa Greenwood (Flip Jackson), Miranda Raison (Mrs Constance Clarke), Glynn Sweet (Sir Geoffrey Balsam), Georgina Moon (Mrs Middlemint), Liam McKenna (Titus Craven), Wayne Forester (Rev Mr Philip Naylor), Giles New (Captain Douwemout Van Der Meer), Diveen Henry (Sarah), Ben Arogundade (Gorembe). Other parts played by members of the cast. Producer David Richardson Script Editor Alan Barnes

On this week's episode I'm joined by Simon Ibison (@daddaughterdr), who writes the lovely daddaughterdoctor blog, about watching Doctor Who with his nine year-old daughter.
