For the next three weeks, we are presenting some archive content in the leadup to our three-part Miniscope on the works of director Rachel Talalay.

Rachel has been a friend to us here at RFS, appearing no fewer than six times, and we thought it was worth re-releasing our interviews and commentaries with her over the years as a lead-in to our conversations about her work on Doctor Who.

From episode #507 of Radio Free Skaro (released December 2015), Warren visits the home of Rachel Talalay in Vancouver for an extended discussion about the making of “Heaven Sent” and “Hell Bent”.

Stay tuned later in the week for the re-release of our commentary for “Heaven Sent”, recorded with Rachel Talalay in 2016.

Erika and Steven watch the only moving-footage episode of “The Space Pirates”, and Erika has a lot to say about it: Robert Holmes has an egg agenda; Milo Clancy’s “old prospector” voice isn’t quite up to Incomparable podcast snuff; and she discovers her favourite Doctor Who spaceship (besides the TARDIS, of course).

I’m not saying that we’ve engaged in time piracy, stealing Doctor Who from the present then talking about it in the past and then having the show recreate the show from our podcast, but I’m not saying that we didn’t either. Why didn’t Bo Holmes write a story about Time Pirates instead? That would have been way more interesting. We were right all along. It’s The Space Pirates. Written by Robert Holmes and aired between March 8 and April 12, 1969.
