Mwah. Mwah.

Join James, Michele and Ian as they talk about Jon Pertwee’s and the third Doctor’s final story, Planet of the Spiders.  How does this story stand up compared to the other farewell stories? And just who is afraid of spiders anyway?  Along with some listener feedback and the announcement of the winner of the Tenth Planet DVD competition, what more could you ask for?

Well okay then, since you insist: Ian and Michele also review the final story in the third series of Eighth Doctor and Charley Big Finish adventures, The Twilight Kingdom.

"Lord Niiiimon… it is I, Soldeed…"

Words to strike terror into every self-respecting Doctor Who fan.

Yes, Jim and Martin scrape the very bottom of the cavernous Who barrel this time and confront The Horns of Nimon.

The budget is low but the camp is oh-so-very high. Tom Baker and Graham Crowden compete to bite the biggest chunks out of the unimpressive scenery, accompanied by the wrong Romana and the incorrect K9, while Janet Ellis longs desperately for her Blue Peter job offer to come through the post.

Marvel as trained dancers balance enormous bull masks on their heads and themselves on their ludicrous platform shoes. Gasp as the co-pilot flaps his jowls like a demented bloodhound. Consider suicide as Crowden and Baker have the time of their lives, at the expense of the production and its tormented viewers.

But is it so bad it's good? Or is it so bad that it'll split your trousers?

 

Listen in for Jim and Martin's verdicts on this pseudo-mythical mess.

21ST MAY WHOSTROLOGY

This week's ep starts with several announcements (including a contest!) and our usual Doctor Who happy-things. After that, we get down to business with a fascinating and surprisingly multi-faceted topic. Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Lynne as we talk traitors--those baddies (and occasionally goodies) who sell out their own people and side with the invaders, oppressors, and other villains. Why do they do it? What motivations are the most interesting? Which lend themselves best to scenery-chewing?

Now the usual chit-chat is out of the way, let's get on to more important things, like a CONTEST! If you want to win a copy of Paul Cornell's new novel The Severed Streets, leave us a comment below and let us know! (Personal recommendation: Do enter to win! I really enjoyed the first book, London Falling, and I can't wait to dig into this one!)

^E

Also covered [links on our site]:

• Katrina snapped up the Humble Doctor Who Comics Bundle!
• Erika is thrilled to hear the 12th Doctor won't flirt!
• Lynne is also stoked about the Doctor Who Humble Bundle, especially the Doctor Who: Legacy bit, because she's rocking that game!
• Deb...
  • talks about geek-parenting on the Nerdology podcast!
  • appreciates new fan-run Doctor Who conventions like CONsole Room and the upcoming (second annual) L.I. Who!
  • cheers because Rachel Talalay will direct Doctor Who!
