Latest Podcast Episodes

(Note: I realize that it's George R.R. Martin and not J.R.R. Martin.  I must have Tolkien on the brain. -Daisy)

A wide variety of news leads off the latest episode of Radio Free Skaro, as the Three Who Rule pontificate about the fate of Caroline Skinner, the discovery of early Doctor Who scripts and even a little about the upcoming Series 7B... but wait, there's more! This week saw the release of the Special Edition of The Aztecs, which includes the recently-found third episode of Galaxy 4, and what more fitting way to celebrate its release on home video than for the RFS lads to talk all over it in the form of a commentary. Talk of Lego, the upcoming Calgary Expo, the realization we're on the cusp of the longest unbroken streak of Doctor Who episodes since 2010 - and of course the other news of the week - round out this week's podcast. Enjoy!

Kick a Myrka! (Stop it, you'll go blind!)

Yes, it's Pertwee time. We have a look at The Time Monster. And were the Pertwee stories TOO cosy at times?

Plus we launch our 'Design A Quark' competition. What would the Quarks look like if they came to the New Series?

There IS a prize!!!

In the somewhat nearish future, the Second Doctor, Jamie and Zoe have landed in a bit of a mess. The Ice Warriors have taken over the Moon Base, which is also the control center of the world wide T-Mat system. The Doctor needs to stop the invasion, though there is the minor problem of being stuck on Earth at the moment. Luckily there is an old rocket just sitting around waiting to be used…

After a longer than usual break between episodes, Phil & Paul return with their long overdue review of the Target novelisation Doctor Who and The Cave Monsters.  During the course of dissecting this book, they discuss the problem of poorly realised femaie characters, rushed endings and the dietary habits of 1970's Britain.

And in the news this week, the announcement of an official convention to celebrate the 50th Anniversary and also a recap on the news they missed out on during the last couple of weeks including the Ice Warriors makeover for series 7, and the perils of press releases giving away major plotlines.

Jo Grant has long been thought of as a dolly bird with trendy gear and huge eyelashes but Dave and Elizabeth think that there is more to the Third Doctor's assistant played by Katy Manning. Their discussion looks at the young girl who arrived in Terror of the Autons, her journey to become the idealistic woman of The Green Death and beyond to The Scorchies, the latest Companion Chronicle from Big Finish

It's Bulis-Time on episode 50 of The Oncoming Storm! Love 'em or hate 'em, there's no denying that Christopher Bulis left his mark on Doctor Who in the wilderness years, racking up 12(!) books full of trad stories and plots. This week, Ashley and Josh are looking at Bulis's first foray into writing, 1993's Shadowmind. The Doctor, Ace, and Benny are on another vacation... so obviously it must go wrong, with duplicates and gestalt creatures aplenty. Oh and military hardware. Lots and lots of military hardware. Join your hosts as they debate the merits of this debut novel and tell you if it's worth any time at all! The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got talking charcoal and telepathic squirrels. Seriously, we can't make this stuff up kids!

This week Phil and Paul continue with their retrospective of series 3 with a look back at Gridlock.  What will they make of this story after all this time and do they think it's a rollicking good adventure or a big disappointment?  In making their minds up, they get into a bit of a disagreement over Martha Jones character and Paul spoils an otherwise lighthearted piece of banter concerning corpse disposal.

And in the news this week, there is plenty of update on the Mark Gatiss drama An Adventure in Space and Time, news of series 8 straight from the mouth of Steven Moffatt and in Omega's Tat Corner, Paul's lonely existence is called into question with his methods of seduction.
