I wrote this script suggestion and lovingly wrapped it around a brick. Apparently, my prayers were answered, so we now toss this brick of an episode gently through the window of your hearts. Witness the Doctor's midlife crisis, only short a brand new convertible. Roll your eyes with glee as we discuss the lamest soldiers ever portrayed on screen. Bite your nails to the new improved Clara. And watch your step as giant electric tribbles abound. All this and two other things, in the most exciting Arrow of Time episode this week. And if you feel there just aren't enough Zygons in “The Zygon Invasion,” the good news is that there is a part two on the way!

This week on Too Many Books, Dave discusses The White Deer by James Thurber.

And believe it or not, Matt has a WhoTube, “Doctor Who | Read My Mind | Amy/Rory” by purplefringe vids: http://youtu.be/8uJfBqbWcY0

Unfortunately, there are more Zygons than you think.

1 day until The Zygon Inversion!

Good day Who fans, this is episode 63. Some waffle, some rants, some news and our review of The Zygon Invasion – good times! Let’s get stuck in.

The News

Peter Capaldi was on the Radio 1 Breakfast Show on Wednesday morning and while chatting generally about Who, he did mention that Clara would be departing before the end of the series and that it would be very sad indeed. Tissues at the ready.

Jenna Coleman has been added to the upcoming Official Festival in London next weekend and we were even offered photo ops. Trouble is, the online system wasn’t great for this with lots of complaints to the BBC Festival twitter account. If anyone got a photo op with Jenna send us the pic.

Toys “R” Us are going to release an exclusive line of 5″ figures from Character. It’s a bit cheeky in a way as some of them are re-released in a newer box but the McGann figure looks awesome along with a couple of the Capaldi figures.

“The Zygon Invasion” Review

We’ve been looking forward to this story since it was announced before series 9 started, who doesn’t love a good Zygon? Here we see them putting their master plan into action to take over the world but does The Doctor have enough to stop them this time?

This week’s trivia question

Last week we asked you – Warehouse no what – where the Ood brain is kept? The answer is – 15.

This week’s question is – At what age was the Doctor taken from his family to join the Acadamy? Give us your answer in the comments below or post it on Twitter or Facebook. Good luck!

Thanks al always for your thoughts, reviews and audio clips. Keep them coming, we love it! Have a great week and enjoy The Zygon Inversion tomorrow night. Until next time – Allons-y!

Andy, Alan and Derek (or their Zygon counterparts) settle in to discuss this weeks Zygon invasion.

Hello everyone! Oh shut up. Yes, why are you talking directly to the listeners? Leave him alone, we can break the 4th wall if we want to! SHUT UP, ALL OF YOU! How can we do the introduction to The Oncoming Storm if all of you keep talking over me?!? Sorry, ignore them. Just the previous incarnations of the podcast speaking up in my head. So where were we? Oh yes, this week Josh, Ashley, Rachel, and Jeff are back to talk about Big Finish's newest box set, Doom Coalition! The 8th Doctor faces off against a new foe, The Eleven, a Time Lord with all of his previous incarnations still living in his head! After that, we go back and see what happened when the 8th Doctor returned from the Divergent Universe in Terra Firma by Joseph Lidster. Finally, we see the brilliant Evelyn Smythe take leave of the TARDIS in Thicker Than Water by Paul Sutton. It's a loaded episode, that's for sure! The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got no Star Wars take for a change! That should last all of an episode or two.

In which we are brimming with allegories and metaphors, and totally know the difference between the two.

This week, Brandon and Danica are watching "The Zygon Invasion" (Series 9, Episode 7 of Doctor Who) and end up being drunkenly riveted by the whole episode. I mean really, you guys - this was a crackerjack episode. There was Osgood! Jokes! Doctor Funkenstein! Seriously, what more do you want? Some Once Upon a Time chatter? Maybe. Probably not, but we don't care. WE DON'T. (We do. We love you.)

Steven and Erika are in LONDON! So of course, they watch some Doctor Who from 1964. This is an extra-lazy from-the-hotel-bed recording so Erika didn’t have to hold up her head while recording. Again. Hey, walking around London (and Cardiff) is tiring!
