Time Eddy II

Gallifrey One: 28 Years Later

It's the final season of the Classic Series of Doctor Who, and to celebrate, Brendan, Nathan and Richard are blowing up either an archaelogical site or the entire world. Let this be our last Battlefield!

Buy the story!

Battlefield was released on DVD in 2008/2009. Included in the release is a re-edited special feature-length version. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Notes and links

The Brigadier's wife Doris is played by Angela Douglas, who played a major role in a four Carry On films: Carry on Cowboy (1965), Carry on Screaming! (1966) Carry On... Follow That Camel (1967) and Carry On... Up the Khyber (1968).

Richard Franklin's novel Operation H.A.T.E tells a the weird story of Captain M, whose narrative has been completely stripped of all overt Doctor Who references for intellectual property reasons.

Fans of serious scholarly treatments of Arthurian Mythology will enjoy Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975) and John Boorman's Excalibur (1981).

Michael Kerrigan's direction of the final battle was clearly based on the Batley Townswomen's Guild recreation of the Battle of Pearl Harbour.

This story's writer, Ben Aaronovitch, is now an accomplished novelist. But, back in the day, he had terrible difficulties meeting publication deadlines. Marc Platt ended up writing the novelisation of Battlefield, and Kate Orman had to step in to finish a crucial New Adventures novel, So Vile a Sin, when Aaronovitch couldn't meet the deadline (he claimed his hard drive had failed).

Doctor Who in Ten Seconds

Brendan's accelerated recaps of Classic Doctor Who are finally back, with some speedy ten-second summaries of all of the stories from Season 8.

Can changes to a character’s race, sex, age, and/or sexual orientation dramatically alter a character? What impact could those changes cause to the character’s reception by fans, media, or the general population? We discuss these questions – and more – in Episode 10 of Discussing Who. Hosted by Kyle Jones, Clarence Brown, and Lee Shackleford. In addition, we welcome special guest host Dave “AC’ Cooper from the Cultdom Collective and Doctor Who Podshock.

It brings me great delight to say that friend of the show (and podcaster in his own right), Hayden Gribble, has penned a book, which is coming out on the 16th of this month. Pretty much around the time you'll hear this episode.

That book is called Child Out Of Time, a memoir of sorts, about a Doctor Who fan growing up in the Wilderness years of the series.

With a cover by Doctor Who author Paul Magrs and a foreword by Andrew 'Full Circle' Smith, this really is a neat thing.

So, to do my part in letting everyone know the book's out - find it at Amazon, folks - I've gone back to the Doctor Who Show episode #2 (from February, 2016).

Why? Because I had Hayden on that episode. You see, Hayden's always fascinated me from the point of view that in Who fandom we have a bunch of people who watched the classic era and most of us have continued to enjoy Nu-Who. Or they're people who started with Nu-Who and some might have gone back to the classics, but I'd wager most haven't, even if they appreciate the history and gravitas it gives the new material.

But Hayden's different. He didn't see the Classic Era on its first run, but then became a fan in the wilderness years, thanks initially to the TV Movie, so was primed and ready to be a major fan when Nu Who started, just like a Classic era fan... but was still this young guy at the time with a different story to most.

That sort of thing's really interesting to me, so I wanted to chat with him on the show about being a younger who fan who likes the classic era, as a bit of a conversation piece.

Now, towards the end of the chat back in 2016, Hayden mentions some projects coming up and one of them was Child out of Time... so it seemed highly appropriate to dust off this tape, and give you a taste of Hayden and I chatting about his years growing up with the show which he's now expanded upon - in quite a major way - in Child out of Time.

It's the dangerous murderous Dastari (Johnny Ringo) and our High Council members are more in the mood to start the episode than to banter. Join Josh, Erik, Kyle and Sean as we embark on the episode that killed Professor Korensky (Charlie) - who apparently was famous though none of us remember him. We never figured different, though. So come to Chicago and enjoy Episode 3!

In which we discover that Neil Gaiman likes his TARDIS' like he likes his women.

We're continuing our season of companions with Marina Reid Hale (@mrimm) who gets us into a double dose of episodes this week - The Unicorn and the Wasp, and The Doctor's Wife.

We learned a lot. Such as the fact that it's a bad idea to get impregnated by a giant wasp alien. And that wasp people are people too. And that concrete faces can not give consent. It was... a lot. So.

Outro music is "I Am Not A Robot" by Marina and the Diamonds
