This episode of MarkWHO42 is all about Jodie from two different perspectives, the guys and the gals. On our biggest round table discussion yet, we separate the gents from the ladies to hear two different perspectives about the first female Doctor WHO, Jodie Whittaker. Was this time right time? Was this the right idea? Why a female Doctor? Is Doctor WHO destined for failure, or looking at a new resurgence? As we move forward with our 13th Doctor, our panelists of experts give their take on what has happened, the controversy spawning throughout the WHOniverse and what they believe will be the future of Doctor WHO. So, join the team of MarkWHO42 (with Christian Basel hosting the men and Iggy Mathews hosting the women) with their very special guests on this special and quite possibly controversial episode. And whatever else happens, Jodie Whittaker is the Doctor, "whether you like it or not."

10 episodes into our fourth series and 50 years after he took on the role (remember, Season 7 filming was well underway by late 1969 for a January 1970 debut), we discuss the Jon Pertwee era of Doctor Who.

We discuss each season, along with breakout chats on the Pertwee companions, UNIT, the Third Doctor in other media, such as books and audios, and more.

Before then, as usual, we discuss the past month in Doctor Who which, this time around, includes Jodie Whittaker singing some Coldplay, an amateur version of Mission to the Unknown, and Doctorates all 'round for the cast and crew of The Woman Who Fell to Earth. Were they deserved?

General listener comments from: Shane Gordon (sorry we called you Shane McCoy on the show!), Paolo Damante, Mark Cockram, and Christopher Bryant

Doctor Who Show mailbag emails from: Peter Deadman, David Clarke, Bill McCann, Sheldon Carnegie

Our year of loves and lasts continues with a rather big "last". Join Deb, Erika, Liz, and Lynne as we discuss 1989's "Survival", which was a "last" in many ways, although it wasn't originally intended as such.

How do you feel about 7's last full story? What did you think of the Cheetah People's costumes? Is that infamous line really the nadir of Sylvester McCoy's performances on Doctor Who? Let us know in the comments!

^E

Also covered:

• Lynne had moving prep help from Michi Trota, Jesse Lex, and Dolores and Matt Peters (the latter two gave them Doctor Who LEGO Dimensions goodies), and Matt hosts two podcasts:
  • Since Last We Spoke!
  • Digital Dumpster Diving!
• Erika
  • discovers "What if John Carpenter did a Doctor Who Theme?"!
  • cannot wait for LI Who and hopes to see you there!
• Liz is filled with delight and squee and Great Emotion because the next Doctor is a woman!
• Deb blatantly steals borrows a game from Kim Rogers and Sage Young at Head Over Feels and wants you to submit your ideas for "This or That" for future Verity fun!

This week, we’re manic, reactive and endogenous, as we contemplate fondant, marshmallow, and the practical problem with leaving someone alive. Make sure you’ve paid your poll tax — it’s time for an outing with The Happiness Patrol.

On with the Motley

In our ongoing postal plebiscite, you’ll be voting on which Colin Baker story will be the subject of our next commentary podcast. Take your mind off the horrors of democracy, head over to the shownotes for Episode 121, and cast your vote.

Buy the story!

The Happiness Patrol was released on DVD in 2012. In the US, it was released on its own (Amazon US), while in the UK and Australia, it was inexplicably released as part of the Ace Adventures box set, along with Dragonfire (Amazon UK).

Notes and links

Richard continues to feud with the hosts of the New To Who podcast. They’re all very attractive.

Dog lovers will find today’s upsetting media landscape impossible to navigate without referring to doesthedogdie.com.

The sound, look and feel of this story owes a lot to noirish thriller The Third Man (1949).

Section 28 of the Local Government Act (1988) was a dogshit piece of legislation enacted by the viciously homophobic Thatcher Government that banned the “promotion” of homosexuality. It remained in force in the UK until 2003.

And here’s the Monty Python sketch about Happy Valley, in which anyone unhappy was immediately put to death. Hilariously.

And here’s Nathan’s personal take on the idea of Frocks and Guns in Doctor Who.

Horrifically enough, Richard is right about the term Joy Division being used to refer to the practice of sexual slavery in Nazi labour camps.

Lady Land is the official TV Tropes name for the Planet of Women trope.

Neither Richard nor Nathan have ever even heard of T-Bag, a British TV programme about a weird witch who travelled around time and space collecting weird objects. For the last few years of the show, T-Bag was played by Georgina Hale, our very own Priscilla P. (It’s horrifically bad. Take a look at one of the episodes from Season 3 here.)

@TinDogPodcast talks about B10 "Voice from the Past" George Spenton-Foster Roger Parkes 13 March 1979 7.0 (80) Blake suffers nightmares of the memory conditioning the Federation performed on him five years before. On course to the resort world Del-10, Blake makes a sudden unexplained course change to PK-118, a mining asteroid. Avon and the rest believe that someone is trying to manipulate Blake's mind and have him restrained, but Blake tricks Vila into believing that the others are plotting against him. Once free, Blake teleports to PK-118 where he meets a resistance group led by former Arbiter General Ven Glynd - a man who originally convicted Blake at his trial, but claims he has defected. Glynd, along with two other revolutionaries; the frail Shivan (whose face is masked with bandages), and LeGrand (a governor whose ship they later rendezvous with), claim they have enough legal evidence to non-violently overthrow the Federation and request transport to a political meeting on planet Atlay. Avon and the others however, only smell a trap when they realize a device Shivan carries may be controlling Blake's mind. Guest Stars: Richard Bebb (as Ven Glynd), Frieda Knorr (as Governor Le Grand), Martin Read (as Nagu)

It's the end of the line for the Tenth Doctor, and The Master and Wilf are there to give him a send off. Also, we get to celebrate Christmas! Old companions and old foes make an appearance. The End of Time is also the last Russell T. Davies penned Doctor Who episode. So, yeah, there is a lot of ground to cover this week and more than enough to talk about even before we get to the regeneration!

It's the end of the line for the Tenth Doctor, and The Master and Wilf are there to give him a send off. Also, we get to celebrate Christmas! Old companions and old foes make an appearance. The End of Time is also the last Russell T. Davies penned Doctor Who episode. So, yeah, there is a lot of ground to cover this week and more than enough to talk about even before we get to the regeneration!

This sounds like a shitty Rocky spinoff.

Sometimes, when I can’t breathe, I wonder what it would be like if I had to pay for my next breath. Like, if I was dying right now would I be willing to fork over the money required to keep on living? It’s a really interesting thing to think about, but also kind of horrifying. Is your life worth that much? It’s Oxygen, written by Jamie Mathieson and aired on May 13, 2017.

This week, we hop aboard the SS Pentallian just in time for it to start plummeting into the heart of a blazing sun. And so while we wait for our inevitable incineration, we answer trivia questions about Bananarama, forget everyone’s names, throw shade on the Captain’s marriage, and spend far too much time crawling around the ship, gurning and gnashing our teeth. Fortunately, it’s all over in 42 minutes.

Notes and links

The 1972 film Solaris, based on Stanislaw Lem’s 1961 novel, features — spoiler alert! — a sentient ocean on an alien planet.

Fans of real-time narrative in cinema will also enjoy Run Lola Run (1998), Fail-Safe (1964), and The Set-Up (1949); United 93 (2006) is also good, but might be more difficult to enjoy.

Lis Sladen gets to do some much more enjoyable possessed-by-aliens acting in the third story of the first season of The Sarah Jane Adventures, Warriors of Kudlak.

And there’s coffee in that (sentient) nebula in the sixth episode of Star Trek: Voyager, The Cloud.

This week, we're manic, reactive and endogenous, as we contemplate fondant, marshmallow, and the practical problem with leaving someone alive. Make sure you've paid your poll tax -- it's time for an outing with The Happiness Patrol.

On with the Motley

In our ongoing postal plebiscite, you'll be voting on which Colin Baker story will be the subject of our next commentary podcast. Take your mind off the horrors of democracy, head over to the shownotes for Episode 121, and cast your vote.

Buy the story!

The Happiness Patrol was released on DVD in 2012. In the US, it was released on its own (Amazon US), while in the UK and Australia, it was inexplicably released as part of the Ace Adventures box set, along with Dragonfire (Amazon UK).

Notes and links

Richard continues to feud with the hosts of the New To Who podcast. They're all very attractive.

Dog lovers will find today's upsetting media landscape impossible to navigate without referring to doesthedogdie.com.

The sound, look and feel of this story owes a lot to noirish thriller The Third Man (1949).

Section 28 of the Local Government Act (1988) was a dogshit piece of legislation enacted by the viciously homophobic Thatcher Government that banned the "promotion" of homosexuality. It remained in force in the UK until 2003.

And here's the Monty Python sketch about Happy Valley, in which anyone unhappy was immediately put to death. Hilariously.

And here's Nathan's personal take on the idea of Frocks and Guns in Doctor Who.

Horrifically enough, Richard is right about the term Joy Division being used to refer to the practice of sexual slavery in Nazi labour camps.

Lady Land is the official TV Tropes name for the Planet of Women trope.

Neither Richard nor Nathan have ever even heard of T-Bag, a British TV programme about a weird witch who travelled around time and space collecting weird objects. For the last few years of the show, T-Bag was played by Georgina Hale, our very own Priscilla P. (It's horrifically bad. Take a look at one of the episodes from Season 3 here.)

Our commentary on The World is Not Enough (1999) will be released this weekend, probably, but while you're waiting you can enjoy our previous commentaries on the Pierce Brosnan films, and our commentaries on the Timothy Dalton Era.

We also have plenty of Rodgecasts online, and there are other Bonds available, as well. Even the fake ones that weren't included in the official box set.

You can keep up with all the Bondfinger news on Twitter and Facebook.

This week, we're manic, reactive and endogenous, as we contemplate fondant, marshmallow, and the practical problem with leaving someone alive. Make sure you've paid your poll tax -- it's time for an outing with The Happiness Patrol.

On with the Motley

In our ongoing postal plebiscite, you'll be voting on which Colin Baker story will be the subject of our next commentary podcast. Take your mind off the horrors of democracy, head over to the shownotes for Episode 121, and cast your vote.

The Happiness Patrol was released on DVD in 2012. In the US, it was released on its own (Amazon US), while in the UK and Australia, it was inexplicably released as part of the Ace Adventures box set, along with Dragonfire (Amazon UK).

Notes and links

Richard continues to feud with the hosts of the New To Who podcast. They're all very attractive.

Dog lovers will find today's upsetting media landscape impossible to navigate without referring to doesthedogdie.com.

The sound, look and feel of this story owes a lot to noirish thriller The Third Man (1949).

Section 28 of the Local Government Act (1988) was a dogshit piece of legislation enacted by the viciously homophobic Thatcher Government that banned the "promotion" of homosexuality. It remained in force in the UK until 2003.

We continue on with our discussion of spooky Doctor Who and try to answer whether horror truly works in the confines of the show. Does more realistic effects detract or enhance the storytelling of spooky stories? Is Ben a horror snob and what makes David a fan of theatre? Opening music is "Mysteries" composed by Don Harper from "The Invasion" and closing music is "Keeler's Transformation Begins" composed by Geoffrey Burgon from "The Seeds of Doom".
