Steven and Erika care so much about Doctor Who that they neglect a game 7 NHL playoff game (until it goes into OT). Liz is awesome; her hat is not. The Doctor is awesome; his clipboard is not.

Earlier this year, your Pieces of Eighth co-host Kenny recorded an episode of another podcast he co-presents, The Power of 3, which marked 20 years of the Eighth Doctor at Big Finish.

He and co-conspirator David Steel look at Storm Warning, Sword of Orion, The Stones of Venice and Minuet in Hell, as well sharing their excitement at the return of Paul McGann to the part of the Doctor.

When Richard turns into a carboard cutout, Paul and Giles have a go at reassembling him.

This is the first half of a typical Something Who comparison between two stories - The Mind Robber and Amy's Choice. This half focuses exclusively on The Mind Robber, but stick around, the second half will be along as soon as we've edited it.

Please like or share our podcast with people who will enjoy it, so we can build our listener base high for happiness. You can rate us directly on Apple Podcasts or Podchaser.com

Giles' book A History of the Universe in 21 Stars: (and 3 Imposters) can be found in all good bookshops and also here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/History-Universe-21-Stars-Imposters/dp/1787394654/

Gav's book Doctor Who: Dalek Combat Training Manual can be found here (other retailers are available) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1785945327/

Also find his excellent YouTube series Terry Nation Army here: https://youtube.com/user/Dalek6388. And they've started a new podcast here: https://dalek6388.podbean.com/ which you should definitely listen to, once you've heard this.

And head over to https://www.bigfinish.com/, where we all love Paul's stories, especially for the Doctor Who and Jago and Litefoot ranges.

Richard's other podcast is called "If It's Hurting, It's not Working" and it's a fun and informative look at work - why we work, how we work, and what makes a great job. And also what makes a great workplace, how to turn things round when we're not enjoying our work and, in the end, how we can all make our work better. https://ifhurtnotwork.podbean.com/

The opening music is Three Guitars Mood 2 and, yes, that is Richard playing the ukulele and kazoo on possibly the worst ever version of the Doctor Who theme tune at the end.

On the sixty-seventh edition of Reality Bomb, Graeme Burk asks the question “Why do conventions fail?” and Ly Cao, Jeff Elston and Jim Sangster discuss the logistical, economic and general reasons that many cons lately cancel at the last minute. A new book, Bookwyrm: An Unauthorised & Unconventional Guide to the Doctor Who Novels Volume 1 looks back on the Doctor Who New Adventures novels of the 1990s and its authors Robert Smith? and Anthony Wilson are here to talk about the days, long ago in an English winter, when Doctor Who was only to be found in prose. And Concorde crash lands in Jurassic England and author Jenny Colgan is on the spot talking about Time-Flight in the Gallery of the Underrated. All this plus Listeners Letters with Joy Piedmont, and the latest superhero sequel featuring an all-too familiar villain.

Our series of retrospectives of each Doctor’s era reaches Paul McGann, the Eighth Doctor – which in practice ends up being a review of “The TV Movie” and “Night of the Doctor”.

SHOWNOTES

(00:00:02) Our Night at the Opera cold open is, of course, a reflection of the Madame Butterfly scene in “The TV Movie” where Grace is summoned from the opera. Fans of “Frasier” may also recognise tributes to the S07E15 episode “Out With Dad” which can be seen here.

(00:06:48) The clip from “Brass Eye” which convinced John Challis that Noel Edmonds had shot Clive Anderson can be found here.

(00:07:25) “Get Some In” is a British TV sitcom featuring Tony Selby about National Service life in the Royal Air Force, broadcast between 1975 and 1978 by Thames Television.

(00:17:20) The pull-out special from the Spring Bank Holiday edition of “Radio Times”, celebrating the broadcast that week of “Doctor Who: The TV Movie” can be found on our Tumblr page here. It shows the seven incarnations of the Doctor leading up to Paul McGann. We have also refashioned this to show the seven hosts of the Diddly Dum podcast which are (anti-clockwise from 1 o’clock round to 5 o’clock) Al No, The Revd Cpt Hullo Porro (The Rev), Matt Charlton, Allan Lear, Hayden Gribble, Mark John and Doc Whom. All these thumbnail sketches were done by the Rev himself (@skaromedia) at various times in the podcast’s existence.

(00:22:40) “Child Out of Time” is Hayden’s memoir of growing up in the Doctor Who Wilderness Years.

(00:33:21) At “Capitol”, the 40th anniversary convention of the Doctor Who Appreciation Society in 2016, Hayden was asked to try on a Gallifreyan soldier’s uniform for reasons which we’ve forgotten and he took the opportunity to be photographed with guests (left to right) Daphne Ashbrook, Fraser Hines and Yee Jee Tso.

(00:35:55) As is surely common knowledge, each host of the Diddly Dum podcast upon arrival is presented with an engraved silver Edwardian cigarillo case. With one exception, all hosts have kept these in the inside pockets of their crushed velvet smoking jackets over their hearts as protection against assassin’s bullets from rival podcasts. The one exception is Mark who uses it to keep his fags in.

(00:39:45) The Grandpa Simpson onion story comes from S04E17 (“Last Exit to Springfield”) of “The Simpsons” and the clip can be seen here.

(01:01:02) This “Kenneth Williams as Nyder” clip appears at around 00:37:50 into Diddly Dum Podcast #118 (“The Amazing World of Tom Baker”) and can be found here.

The Diddly Dum Podcast acknowledges the copyright of anyone we’ve pinched anything from.
