SHOWNOTES

(00:00:00) We open this podcast with a promo for our own Hayden’s spooky new horror novel “The Lurking”. Available at all surviving bookshops and online vendors such as these via these direct links: Amazon and Barnes & Noble and Booktopia and Waterstones.

(00:05:25) Cutaway Comics is a new British imprint of comics and graphic novels drawn from the darker recesses of a dangerous, unpredictable cutaway universe. From the creators of the acclaimed Vworp Vworp! Magazine, they star some of the most enigmatic characters to have graced our screens.

Beginning with a four-issue limited series written by Eric Saward (Doctor Who) and featuring the mercenary Lytton (as portrayed by Gangster’s Maurice Colbourne), Cutaway Comics is also bringing you art from the UK’s hottest artists including Barry Renshaw (Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog).

There’s also a Kickstarter up and running to help fund the launch which can be found here.

Cutaway Comics is inspired by the so-called ‘backup’ stripes of Doctor Who Weekly, which delved deeper into the characters and cultures of the Doctor Who universe away from the Doctor. Stay tuned for some exciting and unprecedented explorations of the worlds of Doctor Who and beyond.

(00:08:12) Earl Cameron CBE (8 August 1917 – 3 July 2020) was a Bermudian actor who lived and worked in the United Kingdom. Along with Cy Grant, he was one of the first black actors to break the “colour bar” in the United Kingdom.

(00:09:24) In 1981, BBC Radio 4 produced a dramatisation of J. R. R. Tolkien’s “The Lord of the Rings” in 26 half-hour installments. This was full of members of the Doctor Who Repertory Company. Ian Holm played the part of Frodo; Sam was played by a young Bill Nighy; Legolas was played by David Collings (Tyrum, Poole, Mawdryn); Treebeard was played by Stephen Thorne (Omega, Azal and Eldrad); Nazgul was played by Michael Spice (Morbius); Radagast was played by Donald Gee (Eckersley).

(00:12:50) “Marvels” is a four-issue limited series comic book written by Kurt Busiek, painted by Alex Ross and edited by Marcus McLaurin. It was published by Marvel Comics in 1994. Set in the 1939 to 1974 time period, the series examines the Marvel Universe, the collective setting of most of Marvel’s superhero series, from the perspective of an Everyman character, news photographer Phil Sheldon. The street-level series portrayed ordinary life in a world full of costumed superhumans, with each issue featuring events well known to readers of Marvel comics, as well as a variety of minute details and a retelling of the most famous events in the Marvel universe.

(00:26:18) “The Shoreditch Incident” was an event in which Imperial and Renegade Dalek factions battled in Shoreditch in November 1963. “The Shoreditch Incident” was also the title of a book on the incident written by ex-UNIT officer Hamlet Macbeth. (PROSE: The Left-Handed Hummingbird, Return of the Living Dad). Second Lieutenant Gary Jonathan Finch died in the incident but it was hushed up by the military. This inspired his son, Clive Finch, to begin his research on the Doctor. (PROSE: Rose).

(00:32:05) The music bed playing behind Smashie Hayden’s countdowns is, of course, “Yellow Pearl” by Phil Lynott which was used as “Top of the Pops” theme music.

(00:33:00) “Child Out of Time: Growing Up With Doctor Who in The Wilderness Years” is our own Hayden’s memoir of a childhood which began in the year in which Doctor Who was cancelled.

(00:48:50) This “Dalek Attack” commercial can be seen here.

(01:07:25) “A Critical History of Doctor Who on Television” by John Kenneth Muir.

(01:11:14) John Carson (Ambril in “Snakedance”) also played Hans Van Reijn in “A Hymn to Freedom”, S01E12 of BBC serial “Secret Army”, a clip of which can be seen on our Youtube account.

(01:40:00) We’d like to draw your attention to “Regenerations”, a charitable anthology to which Simon has contributed and which has now been confirmed as coming out on 3rd August and can be pre-ordered now at this link.

“Something has gone very wrong with time! The Time Lord formerly known as the Doctor has been fighting the Time War for as long as he can recall. His previous lives — all those triumphs and tragedies — have been boxed up and filed away, too painful to revisit. That is until something — or someone — begins tugging at the thread of the Doctor’s past. As familiar stories twist and shift, threatening the stability of the universe itself, the reluctant Warrior finds himself with only one option. He has to save the Doctor.”

“Published by Chinbeard Books, “Regenerations” has been written to raise money for “Invest in ME”. It is a non-profit, unofficial, charity anthology – with no copyright infringement intended. Nobody involved is taking a fee for their time or talent.

Chinbeard has already sold out the limited print run but ebooks can still be bought.

P.S. A lovely promo vid can be seen at this separate link.

A discussion about the Leela years in Doctor Who focusing in on Tom Baker and the behind-the-scenes change in the production office and how Leela's character's arc imploded in season 15, where ambition hit the hard wall of lack of money. Ben theorizes that K9 is the talking cabbage that Tom always wanted as a companion and may explain why he stayed on for season 16. While David wonders why Boucher and Holmes dropped Leela's "Pygmalion" storyline in their season 15 scripts.

A discussion about the Leela years in Doctor Who focusing in on Tom Baker and the behind-the-scenes change in the production office and how Leela's character's arc imploded in season 15, where ambition hit the hard wall of lack of money. Ben theorizes that K9 is the talking cabbage that Tom always wanted as a companion and may explain why he stayed on for season 16. While David wonders why Boucher and Holmes dropped Leela's "Pygmalion" storyline in their season 15 scripts. Opening and closing music is from "The Invasion of Time" soundtrack composed by the incredible Dudley Simpson. This episode was recorded 5 August 2020.

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.
