"Closing Time" Review

The post Doctor Who – Ep226: Damn Cybermats Again appeared first on The Doctor Who Big Blue Box Podcast.

On this week's podcast, the Wanderers join 10 on Mars on the eve of the disaster that killed the red planet's first colonists.  Can he save them, or would interference in this fixed point in time only lead to greater tragedy?

QotW: In The Waters Of Mars, the Doctor -- The Time Lord Victorious -- broke the rules of time by saving Adelaide Brooke. What other rule or rules (if any) would you have liked to see the Doctor break?

So Here's the Thing.../Listener Mailbag/Who News

Discussion of "Waters of Mars" (Trevor 8.75, David 8, Connor 8.25, Charlie 8.5)

Discussion of "Dreamland" (Trevor 8.25, David 7, Connor 8.5, Charlie 7.5)

• Trevor  @WhovianTrev    Trevsplace
• Charlie  @insanityinchaos    The Comic Conspiracy
• David http://www.davidsafar.com/    @gwythinn    MaroonedWhovian

Join us next week for our review of Doctor Who story #202, the swan song for both David Tennant and showrunner Russell T Davies, The End of Time! We’ll probably have plenty to say about this landmark two-parter, so we’ll be taking the week off from reviewing other media. Rest assured, we’ll be getting back into the swing of things with Big Finish audio adventures once we get into series five of Doctor Who.

Jon Davey joins us once again to talk about the cratures he played in series 10 of Doctor Who & music videos he has recently made for Avenge 7 Fold and Run the Jewels.

Although we're still a month away from Halloween, we thought we'd get a jump start from horror enthusiast and podcaster, Paul Heath as our guest this month. You may know him from the Hammered Horror podcast or as one of the members of the Pharos Project podcast, but in this episode, he's brought with him that very influential reporter of the supernatural, Kolchak: The Night Stalker! Is he the world's greatest reporter or is he just making it up as he's going along? Come join us! We had a lot of fun recording this one.

Well, we tried. We really did. Episode 207 of The Oncoming Storm was supposed to be this epic conclusion to 5 years of discussing the 7th Doctor's new adventures. And it still is, after a fashion. Just with tons of screw ups along the way. It starts out well enough, Josh Ashley, Rachel, and Jeff are here, and they get through the news well enough. But then the discussion turns to Lungbarrow by Marc Platt, and Ashley gets timescooped away. And despite our best efforts, we can't get him back. Even when a secondary discussion occurs, the pesky interference stops his voice again! So please forgive us, and try to enjoy the discussions that are there, as we talk about the Doctor's past, his family, and his tear jerking goodbye. The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got sentient furniture and mutant killer flowers! Gallifrey is so much cooler than we all thought!

SHOWNOTES

(00:02:15) Photos of the covers of the 1969 and 1970 Doctor Who annuals which complete Hayden’s annuals collection can be found on our Tumblr page here.

(00:10:50) West Kirby Rotary Club has got a very special comedy night lined up at Hoylake Social Club on Monday 16th October. Stand-up comedy will be provided by headliners Michael Legge (BBC6 Music, The Dave Gorman Show, The Alternative Comedy Experience) and Robin Ince. Robin has appeared in The Office and consulted on the writing of Skins, but is probably best know as co-host, with Professor Brian Cox, of Radio 4's The Infinite Monkey Cage.

(00:12:21) “Who at the Playhouse” is a one day event celebrating Doctor Who and his robot companion K9. Meet the stars of Doctor Who in a non-stop day of stage interviews, celebrity autograph panels and photograph sessions on what will be the 40th anniversary of K9's first appearance on Saturday 1st October 1977.

(00:21:28) Peter Capaldi’s script for Listen raises PS5,000 at auction for a Syrian Refugees in the UK charity.

(00:34:59) The ladybird plague of 1976.

(00:35:32) Doc only survived the sweltering summer of 1976 thanks to frozen Jubblies and standpipes in the streets.

(00:37:02) Mark obtained John Challis’s autograph at The Theatre Royal, Margate in 2015.

(01:04:28) “Jackanory” was a long-running BBC children’s television series that was designed to stimulate an interest in reading. The show was transmitted from 1965 to 1996.

“Orange Man” is a British television advertisement for the soft drink Tango Orange and became the “You Know When You’ve Been Tango’d” campaign in the 1990s and 2000s. The advertisement features an orange man slapping a Tango drinker across the cheeks, a wacky metaphor for tasting Tango, and was intended as a reaction against the norm of “cause and effect” television advertising at the time was largely focused on scenarios where peoples lives were improved by the product being advertised. Orange Man caused controversy after reports of injuries when children began copying the events of the advertisement in school playgrounds, and was subsequently banned, with two other versions of Orange Man replacing it, both showing different scenarios aside from slapping.

(01:24:05) “Recessional” is a poem by Rudyard Kipling. It was composed for Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee, in 1897.

(01:24:05) The Dorothy L Sayers novel referred to here is “The Five Red Herrings”.

"The Horns of Nimon" Review

Thank you so much for listening and for sending in your reviews. Next week we start the conclusion of our 9th Doctor reviews with Bad Wolf so get those dvds/blu rays out for your reviews. Until then have a fantastic week and remember - Allons-y!

IT'S SEASON THREE TIME! This week David and Matt review the season three opener, 'The Runaway Bride'. Throughout the episode they attempt to answer such questions as 'How much shouting is too much shouting'?, 'Under what circumstances is it OK to rob a bank'? and with Matt's own wedding looming , 'What could be worse than being abducted by aliens during the ceremony'?

Doctor Who theme by Ron Grainer, arranged by Alexander Erben.
