In this week’s podcast we revisit the novel Lethbridge-Stewart: Beast of Fang Rock by Andy Frankham-Allen, for a spoiler filled review of the book. We give our no holds barred review of the story in the continuing line of books.

Before that, however, we review another story in Candy Jar Books’ range of Lethbridge-Stewart stories, this time the short story entitled, The Cult of the Grinning Man by Tom Dexter which precedes Beast of Fang Rock in the chronology.

And, finally we are joined this week by friend-of-the-show, Andy Frankham-Allen. Andy shares some insight into the the line, as well as how he came to write and help steer the ship for the series.

Plus, we discuss the news that Steven Moffat is leaving Doctor Who, and that we will only see one story this year before the series is moved to the Spring of 2017.

And, of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!

BREAKING WHO NEWS: Steven Moffat has announced he's stepping down after Series 10, to be replaced by Broadchurch creator (and Who and Torchwood writer) Chris Chibnall. AND, NO NEW WHO UNTIL CHRISTMAS 2016! SO - lots to talk about in a special BREAKING NEWS edition of MUTTER'S SPIRAL!

So, how do John & Will feel about this changing of the guard? What do they think of Chibnall's previous work, and what might Who look like with him in charge? We go through a lot of what we know and share our thoughts. Won't you join us?

Well, it's come down to this - Episode 5 of The Daemons. Join Josh, Felicity and Jeff as we embark on the controversial ending to this classic story. Lots of discussion of Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie but we all bow down to the "Five rounds rapid" line. But we do go through the list of Doctor Who episodes where someone spits. Are we happy with the ending? Perhaps the episode has "gone-west" - you be the judge.

On the thirty-first edition of Reality Bomb, we have a super-sized episode that starts with a discussion with Keynon Wallace and Nikki Stafford about Doctor Who's new showrunner (in 2018) Chris Chibnall.

Plus Lindsey Mayers, Shannon Dohar and Rebecca Diem go back and revisit the speculations they made about Series 9 last September and The Android Invasion is in the Gallery of the Underrated courtesy of Jim Sangster. All this and the world's most popular podcast examines a fan argument, week by week!

This week, Brendan, Richard and Nathan tackle City of Death, by Douglas Adams and Graham Williams. How many superlatives can fit in a single 40-minute podcast episode?

Buy the story!

City of Death was released on DVD in 2005. Seriously, if you don’t have a copy, just buy it. At once. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Notes and links

We’ve uploaded some photos from Brendan’s Facebook album Toys on Tour, which is the best place to go to see a plastic Tom Baker crawling up the gate to the Galerie Denise René in Paris.

After Hitch Hiker’s and Doctor Who, Douglas Adams wrote two novels featuring holistic detective Dirk Gently, which reused elements from City of Death and Shada. Those novels were Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency (1987) and The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul (1988). They’re very good.

Ken Grieve, with whom Douglas Adams went to Paris for lunch that one time, was the director of Destiny of the Daleks.

We talked about Cornell, Day and Topping’s The Discontinuity Guide a couple of weeks ago. Here’s their take on City of Death.

Peter Cook and Dudley Moore’s weird spoof version of The Hound of the Baskervilles was released in 1978. It just sounds amazing!

When she wasn’t busy helping her husband to steal the Mona Lisa, Catherine Schell appeared in the second season of Space: 1999 as Maya, a shape-changing alien from the planet Psychon. It’s really much worse than you could possibly imagine.

Fans of erudite discussions of art, scarcity and authenticity will enjoy Elizabeth Sandifer’s take on this story from TARDIS Eruditorum.

For two years, from 1911 to 1913, the Mona Lisa was no longer in the Louvre: it was hidden in a trunk in Vincenzo Peruggia’s apartment after he entered the Louvre, hid it under his smock and made off with it. See, we’re educational as well as entertaining.

Captain Tancredi’s bodyguard is played by Peter Halliday, who won our hearts in his role as Packer in The Invasion.

Romana’s naughty schoolgirl outfit seems to be inspired by the St Trinian’s film series in the 50s and 60s. Another inspiration might be Madeline, the heroine of a series of children’s books written by Austrian author Ludwig Bemelmans in the 1950s and 60s.

Licence Denied was a collection of fan writing edited by Paul Cornell and first published in 1997. It is, sadly, out of print. Notable essays include Tom the Second, Gareth Roberts’s defence of the Williams Era, and Why the Nimon Should Be Our Friends, by Phillip J. Gray. And no, you can’t borrow my copy.

James Goss’s novelisation of City of Death was released by BBC Books in 2015. It’s good. Buy it. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Comic Book Guy kidnaps Lucy Lawless in The Simpsons Halloween episode Treehouse of Horror X. Hilariously, the Simpsons Wikia page warns that “this episode is considered non-canon and the events featured do not relate to the series and therefore may not have actually happened/existed”. Which is nice to know.

Our Casino Royale (1967) commentary will be released early in February. With hilarious results.

Moffat Out -Chibnall In

There’s been an awakening. Have you felt it? It’s in our sanity. As in, we’re losing it.

We know. Two Years. Some of you have been here for all two of them. Some of you weren’t. That’s ok, we love* you all. No but actually, thank you for listening. We really do appreciate that there are people who sit/stand/walk while listening to two random guys babble on about Doctor Who, or movie trilogies, or whatever we fancy really. We know this episode is a bit “thrown together” you might say, but it’s a nice representation of the years behind and ahead of us. Below I’ve dropped links to all the friends we’ve made this past year, as well as anything else of note. Here’s to another year of laughs!

*Love is subjective.

Flight Through Entirety

We've uploaded some photos from Brendan's Facebook album Toys on Tour, which is the best place to go to see a plastic Tom Baker crawling up the gate to the Galerie Denise Rene in Paris.

After Hitch Hiker's and Doctor Who, Douglas Adams wrote two novels featuring holistic detective Dirk Gently, which reused elements from City of Death and Shada. Those novels were Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency (1987) and The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul (1988). They're very good.

Ken Grieve, with whom Douglas Adams went to Paris for lunch that one time, was the director of Destiny of the Daleks.

We talked about Cornell, Day and Topping's The Discontinuity Guide a couple of weeks ago. Here's their take on City of Death.

Peter Cook and Dudley Moore's [weird spoof version of The Hound of the Baskervilles](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hound_of_the_Baskervilles_(1978_film)) was released in 1978. It just sounds amazing!

When she wasn't busy helping her husband to steal the Mona Lisa, Catherine Schell appeared in the second season of Space: 1999 as Maya, a shape-changing alien from the planet Psychon. It's really much worse than you could possibly imagine.

Fans of erudite discussions of art, scarcity and authenticity will enjoy Philip Sandifer's take on this story from TARDIS Eruditorum.

For two years, from 1911 to 1913, the Mona Lisa was no longer in the Louvre: it was hidden in a trunk in Vincenzo Peruggia's apartment after he entered the Louvre, hid it under his smock and made off with it. See, we're educational as well as entertaining.

Captain Tancredi's bodyguard is played by Peter Halliday, who won our hearts in his role as Packer in The Invasion.

Romana's naughty schoolgirl outfit seems to be inspired by the St Trinian's film series in the 50s and 60s. Another inspiration might be Madeline, the heroine of a series of children's books written by Austrian author Ludwig Bemelmans in the 1950s and 60s.

Licence Denied was a collection of fan writing edited by Paul Cornell and first published in 1997. It is, sadly, out of print. Notable essays include Tom the Second, Gareth Roberts's defence of the Williams Era, and Why the Nimon Should Be Our Friends, by Phillip J. Gray. And no, you can't borrow my copy.

James Goss's novelisation of City of Death was released by BBC Books in 2015. It's good. Buy it. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Comic Book Guy kidnaps Lucy Lawless in The Simpsons Halloween episode Treehouse of Horror X. Hilariously, the Simpsons Wikia page warns that "this episode is considered non-canon and the events featured do not relate to the series and therefore may not have actually happened/existed". Which is nice to know.

The Doctor Who world was rocked this week by the news that Steven Moffat will be stepping down as showrunner, to be replaced by Chris Chibnall, showrunner of Broadchurch and writer of Torchwood, Life on Mars and yes, Doctor Who fame. What did the Three Who Rule think of this seismic shift, not to mention the fact that there won't be any new Who until Christmas of this year? More to the point, what are their views on digitizing Doctor Who pinball? Never let it be said we don't focus on the important issues here at RFS. Just in case baseless speculation isn't your thing, we also have an interview with Katy Manning, recorded at LI Who and presented here for your listening pleasure.

Gally's almost here and we're SO excited! All we want to do is talk about who we're going to see as guests. Well, you know us. Mostly all we want to talk about are Gally guests. So this show, we're taking a peek at the guest list and chatting about what we know and what we've seen of some of them. And some other things as we go careening off the path and down the rabbit hole.

WARNING: Contains many, many rabbits.

Is anything ever funny for the right reasons?

This week Kiyan and Dylan face the roughly 4×21 minute ritual of Kroll. It’s really rather simple, you sit through the 4 episode The Power of Kroll serial, take a few notes, and then record a podcast about it. The serial was written by Robert Holmes and aired in December of 1978 and January of 1979.

This is the kind of alarm clock/timer that Kiyan and Dylan were referring to, in case you were wondering.

Summary:

Adam J Purcell, Andy Simpkins and Keith Dunn sit down, cloistered, in front of the 2015 Doctor Who episode, Hell Bent, and spout our usual nonsense!

The Doctor isn’t going to take anymore, the General feels the change coming on and the President has lost more than his hair. But enough of their problems, please sit down with us to enjoy Hell Bent...
