This week's episode of Radio Free Skaro has unwittingly turned into a celebration of one-time Doctor Who producer Philip Hinchcliffe. Not only do the Three Who Rule provide commentary on the first Hinchcliffe story to air, 1975's iconic The Ark in Space, but it was also announced this past week that Hinchcliffe will be appearing at his first ever Gallifrey One convention in February of next year. So sit back and listen as we celebrate one of the finest eras in Doctor Who history that made the show an international success story. 

Also, listen as we make fun of actors' hairstyles. Ah, it's Radio Free Skaro. What do you expect?

Chewing the fat on what has been taking place in the Doctor Who world lately are Brian Terranova, James McLean and Christian Cawley, who despite their obvious, unrivalled professionalism on the podKast haven’t received a Bafta lately (or, indeed, at all).

Fear not, however, at least one of them has been in the same room as two of the subjects of this week’s podKast with a K – Steven “The Grand Moff” Moffat (aka The Moffinator) and Matt Smith.

This week we look at Steven Moffat’s much-deserved Bafta award and some of the odd reaction to this on Twitter, as well as chat about Matt Smith carrying the Olympic torch (and being slightly distracted by the issue of blanket coverage of the subject).

Summary:
Adam J Purcell, Andy Simpkins and Keith Dunn sit down, gobsmacked, in front of the Babylon 5 second season episode, In the Shadow of Z’ha’dum, and spout our usual nonsense!

Mr Morden is feeling confined, Sheridan smells a rat and Kosh is older than he looks. But enough of their problems, please sit down with us to enjoy In the Shadow of Z’ha’dum...

Geek to Geek with Monts and Nuge - David Montieth and Barry Nugent bring you their monthly slice of pop culture madness. No script, no preparation but a lot of fun and sass...always sass.

Topics covered

Our thoughts on Avengers Assemble.

What we think of the upcoming Green Arrow TV show.

What we're looking forward to reading and watching over the Summer.

Thoughts on the Eagle Awards and MCM Awards (this was recorded before we found out there still would be an Eagle Awards).

What DC can do to catch up to Marvel on the film front.

And much more.

In which we focus in a little on the latest books that we've plucked from the top of our bookstacks. In the absence of Mattie we are joined by 'The Grampus' a.k.a Matt Farr from Dissecting Worlds. He kicks things off with Adrian Tchaikovsky's insect-themed fantasy, the Shadows of the Apt. Clover follows this up with Juggernaut, an explosive zombie actioner by Adam Baker set in the Gulf conflict. Next up, Phil tells us about Stacia Kane's stylish and grungy urban fantasy, Unholy Ghosts. Dion then waxes lyrical about Jenny Nimmo's The Snow Spider, a beautiful children's fantasy with a tragic heart. Finally Matt gives us a flavour of the prolific but oft under-appreciated weird fiction writer Clark Ashton Smith. All of this is of course spiced with our usual blend of good humor and pettiness.

Stay tuned also for Adam Baker's first recorded interview on Juggernaut, after the main programme.

Feedback is always welcome. You can post comments here on GS, e-mail us at scrolls@hotmail.co.uk or tweet us @scrollscast if you like.
If you want to get personal you can send abuse to @phlambler or pedantic diatribes to @thegrampus. @Dion_Scrolls is more partial to flattery or sponsorship deals from major ice-cream producers.

I'm just saying...

Anyway, that's enough waffle. Keep reading.

Taking a break from Alternative Histories, The Dissecting Duo participate in the spirit of the Olympic summer with the first of four episodes looking at sports and games and all that healthy outdoors nonsense we both try and avoid

We start by looking at team sports and could hear such highlights as:

• The fine line between games and sports
• Star Trek Space Badmington Thingy and other made up sports
• Why can't the Flash run in the Olympics?
• The challenges of technology, distance, and interplanetary environments.
• The changing faces of Cricket, Football and Rugby and the problems of prediction
• And much more....

So sit back, enjoy & disagree!

Feedback and discussion always welcome @Dissectingwrlds for the show and @clarkythecruel for Kehaar and @thegrampus for Matt

The First Doctor is suffering – of all thing – a toothache, so has to go visit the local dentist to get it removed. Of course it's never that simple as the local dentist happens to be one Doc Holiday. From there things proceed to go a bit sideways as The Doctor, Steven and Dodo get pulled quickly into the Gunfight at the O.K. Coral.

May brings us snowstorms, Adric, Nyssa, Tegan, the Fifth Doctor, and the Seventh Doctor in Lance Parkin's Cold Fusion, one of the later installments in Virgin's Missing Adventures series. From the back cover:

'The entire universe is at stake and I'm locked in here with another incarnation of myself, and not even one of the good ones.'

More than one TARDIS lands on a barren ice world. The fifth Doctor, Adric, Nyssa and Tegan find a once ordered society on the verge of collapse, as rebels wage a dirty war with Scientifica, the ruling elite. All that stands between order and anarchy is the massed presence of an Adjudicator peacekeeping force.

But is peace the only reason for the Adjudicator garrison? What exactly has been discovered deep beneath the planet's surface? Who are the mysterious Ferutu? And why is telling a ghost story a criminal offense?

The fifth Doctor sides with the cause of justice and fairness as always. But, as a threat to the universe unfolds, he finds himself in conflict with his past...and his future.

For continuity buffs, this story takes place between the television stories "Castrovalva" and "Four to Doomsday" and between the New Adventures Return of the Living Dad and The Death of Art. The back cover text seems to skirt around the fact that the Seventh Doctor and his friends are present in this story, but anything that is blatantly obvious by glancing at the front cover shouldn't be considered a spoiler.

We previously reviewed a Lance Parkin's The Infinity Doctors back in Episode 8. It can't be argued that Parkin is an ambitious author, and hopefully Cold Fusion will not disappoint. So sit back and enjoy!

Kyle Anderson saw the absence of first Doctor stories covered on the podcast and he had some thoughts about one that he really needed to get out. It’s win for him, win for me and hopefully win for you the listener!

Apologies for the sound towards the end, apparently my microphone came unplugged. I’m hopeful though that it doesn’t ruin what is otherwise a fantastic episode of the podcast. “The Time Meddler” should be included in any Doctor Who primer. If you haven’t seen it you should and I think Kyle and I make a clear case as to why.
