00:00 The Who Wars Podcast Theme00:48 The Front Page; Rob @WhoWars kicks off this episode with discussion of this being our biggest ever, from the point of view that it features an interview between Andy @skaromedia and one of the classic era Doctors from Doctor Who, Colin Baker, which is as big on the Doctor Who side of the fence as, say, a Carrie Fisher or Mark Hammil interview would be on the Star Wars side of the fence; San Diego Comic Con and the various Star Wars and Doctor Who announcements there; Doctor Who had a panel (includes audio clip), the announcement of a Lego game (includes audio clip), and a Series 9 trailer (which gets discussed in the following segment); Star Wars had a panel, a behind-the-scenes video (includes audio clip), the release of Dark Disciple by Christie Golden, based on unfinished Clone Wars episodes (reviwed later in this episode), and a symphonic concert of John Williams' Star Wars music (includes audio clip); Welcome to Who Wars #36.11:00 TRAILER – DOCTOR WHO – Andy @skaromedia Al No @TheMeandTheHim Rob @WhoWars J.R.

As mentioned in 'The Front Page' of this podcast, the sound for the interview comes from multiple sources. If you initially find it hard to listen to without headphones, do stick with it as a better sound source kicks in (1:28:43) for the majority of the interview.

Nic, Andy and Derek get together to review a very special 200th episode of the Big Finish main range. The Doctor may be in but it’s not quite the right Doctor. And if he doesn’t get his act together quickly he may not even be the Doctor!

In a momentous news week for Doctor Who, Phil takes the extraordinary step of interrupting this weeks news section with the air date for series 9, a brand spanking new series 9 trailer and a trailer featuring the Doctor for Lego Dimensions! But back in the past with the lads original news item, they try to catch up on the news they have missed over the last couple of weeks and they even try to fit in a quick soujorn to Omega's Tat Corner.

But the real reason for this weeks episode is the continuation of their audio commentary for The Stones Of Blood episodes 3 and 4. So queue more facts from the day of original transmission and Tony yet again continues with his extremely libellous facts on Tom Baker!

In a slightly tense, raucous and rambling finale to Series 3, Ben and Mark welcome Andrew Blair and Tony Sloan (Host of The Geeking Awesome podcast) to try and figure out whether or not the Master is an effective villain as they discuss The Sound of Drums/Last of the Timelords and Terror of the Autons. There's singing, Eric Roberts impressions, an appreciation of Doctor Who insults and nary a mention of Comic Con 2015. (Because we recorded this AGES ago, that trailer's quite exciting though innit?)

Our weekly flight through Tom Baker’s first season continues with an episode made entirely of thirty foot thick reinforced concrete. That’s right, it’s time for that 1975 classic, Genesis of the Daleks!

Buy the story!

Genesis of the Daleks was released on DVD way back in 2006. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Links and notes

Commedia dell’arte is a genre of theatrical comedy featuring an array of various stock characters. It dates from 16th century Italy, but is based on a tradition that goes all the way back to Greek New Comedy from the end of the fourth century BC. So does that make Davros just the latest iteration of Pantalone?

Severin is the hero of Venus in Furs (1870), a novella written by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, who gave his name to something called masochism. Probably best not to look that word up on Google.

The Time Lord is dressed as Death from Ingmar Bergman’s The Seventh Seal (1957). Here is a version by French and Saunders. And this version comes from the first season of The Micallef Programme.

Fans of having no idea of what is going on will enjoy this article on Jacques Lacan from the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy.

Sadly, I’m unable to locate the Parliamentary speech made by a Conservative MP in the 1990s, in which he quoted Davros’s virus speech from Part 5 of this story. Fact fans will be able to corroborate its historicity, however, by referring to Miles and Wood’s About Time volume 4. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Episode 39 - Before podcasts, before cosplay, before the discovery of time travel, there was...NOTHING! Well, not entirely. In ye olden days, when fans went to meetings riding on the backs of pterodactyls there was...the (PAPER) FANZINE! Within those hallowed and now yellowed pages, fans would gather together in a papery, non-digital environment to express their ideas, love (and hate - some things will never change!) about the show. One of the very best of these was none other than TSV, the august fanzine from across the ditch in New Zealand. Mark and Rob chat with TSV editor Paul Scoones. In between bouts of inhaling duplicator fumes, we reminisce about producing fanzines before and after desktop publishing era. We examine how some contributors ascended to the realm of the professional novelist and put the internet in the dock for once again killing something that is fine and previous - damn its eyes! Plus we also touch on Doctor Who comics and Paul's definitive history of them in his book and his involvement in the recovery of The Lion and his work on the DVD Production notes. Paul Scoones's website: Features a blog and additional pages with details about the Comic Strip Companion and the DVD production information text. www.paulscoones.com TSV / New Zealand Doctor Who Fan Club: Includes Archive section featuring material from many past issues of TSV, and the fan novelisations.

Episode 39 - Before podcasts, before cosplay, before the discovery of time travel, there was...NOTHING! Well, not entirely. In ye olden days, when fans went to meetings riding on the backs of pterodactyls there was...the (PAPER) FANZINE! Within those hallowed and now yellowed pages, fans would gather together in a papery, non-digital environment to express their ideas, love (and hate - some things will never change!) about the show. One of the very best of these was none other than TSV, the august fanzine from across the ditch in New Zealand. Mark and Rob chat with TSV editor Paul Scoones. In between bouts of inhaling duplicator fumes, we reminisce about producing fanzines before and after desktop publishing era. We examine how some contributors ascended to the realm of the professional novelist and put the internet in the dock for once again killing something that is fine and previous - damn its eyes! Plus we also touch on Doctor Who comics and Paul's definitive history of them in his book and his involvement in the recovery of The Lion and his work on the DVD Production notes.

Our weekly flight through Tom Baker's first season continues with an episode made entirely of thirty foot thick reinforced concrete. That's right, it's time for that 1975 classic, Genesis of the Daleks!

Buy the story!

Genesis of the Daleks was released on DVD way back in 2006. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Commedia dell'arte is a genre of theatrical comedy featuring an array of various stock characters. It dates from 16th century Italy, but is based on a tradition that goes all the way back to Greek New Comedy from the end of the fourth century BC. So does that make Davros just the latest iteration of Pantalone?

Severin is the hero of Venus in Furs (1870), a novella written by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, who gave his name to something called masochism. Probably best not to look that word up on Google.

The Time Lord is dressed as Death from Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal (1957). Here is a version by French and Saunders. And this version comes from the first season of The Micallef Programme.

Fans of having no idea of what is going on will enjoy this article on Jacques Lacan from the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy.

Sadly, I'm unable to locate the Parliamentary speech made by a Conservative MP in the 1990s, in which he quoted Davros's virus speech from Part 5 of this story. Fact fans will be able to corroborate its historicity, however, by referring to Miles and Wood's About Time volume 4. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
