IT'S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME.... OF THE YEAR! That's right, it's February - time for another GALLIFREY ONE Doctor Who Convention (the 28th!), so this must be our annual preview episode with our great friends Sage Young and Kim Rogers of HeadOverFeels.com ! We'll discuss what everyone is doing (panels, cosplay, etc) at this year's Gally, as well as the other people, places, and things that we're looking forward to! Also, John and I will do a little intro about Gally in general for any listener who is going for the first time. It's a quick listen, just enough to get your juices flowing for the convention (HA - as if we aren't all amped up to 11 (or TWELVE) already! )

ALSO, keep your eye on our main Libsyn page all weekend (as well as our Twitter feeds) for links to our podcasts from the convention!

Jeff and Felicity joins Josh again with a perhaps underrated Peter Davison story: Frontios. It is likely that there will be a fair amount of discussion about battery acid, Turlough saliva and wood lice. But then again, that's the High Council for you.

The Others have never shied away from a Cybermen episode and this is no different. As they take a look at the first two episodes of the Peter Davison story, Earthshock, they ponder the question of what moments in Doctor Who have been unexpected or shocking. The reason for this discussion stems from the fact the general public in the UK had no idea at the time the Cybermen were returning in this story; a secret kept to such an extent that JN-T even refused an opportunity for the Cybermen to be on the cover of the Radio Times. What other moments came as a completely shock?

We are The Others.

The Others is not recommended for people who don't like swearing or are easily offended.

We're a podcast on an anniversary special. But probably not the one you were expecting.

That's right. The Oncoming Storm is here with episode 80, in the week of Doctor Who's 50th anniversary! And we're ready to talk about the anniversary story. No, not the one with those two babyfaces and the guy from "Alien" in it. Ashley, Josh, Rachel, Sacha, and special guest Dr. Scott Vigue are here to discuss The Light at the End by Nicholas Briggs, the Big Finish Anniversary special. 8 Doctors, 1 Master, and a slew of companions. Will it be a mess or a masterpiece? But before that, a certain minisode with big implications regarding Doctor Who spin off media is thoroughly analyzed. And we won't lie, drooled over. The Oncoming Storm... This time we've got a whole lotta McGann, and some validation at last. Life couldn't be better.

Just like that John Travolta movie.

This week we move into season 25. Can you believe we’ve almost finished 25 years of Doctor Who? Time wise that’s almost half of all the time it’s existed. It’s Remembrance of the Daleks, written by Ben Aaronvitch and aired in October of 1988.

None of us have slept for weeks, and our exposure to Twitter has taught us that technological progress must be resisted at all costs. So join in with us as we smash the machines and discuss The Mark of the Rani.

Buy the story!

The Mark of Rani was released on DVD in 2006. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Notes and links

Spy vs Spy was a long-running wordless comic strip which featured for decades in MAD Magazine.

Fans of period drama where the principals aren't wearing the most horrific clothes possible will enjoy The Pallisers and When the Boat Comes In.

Brendan mentions Cornell, Day and Topping's opinion on this story's rubber trees in their Discontinuity Guide entry on this story.

Before taking on the role of the Doctor, Colin Baker was most famous for his role as Paul Merroney in The Brothers, which ran from 1972 to 1976, and also featured television's fabulous Kate O'Mara.

Horrifically, Bic pens for women were actually a real thing. Here's Ellen's take on the topic.

For those of you who don't live and breathe the history of Doctor Who, Michael Grade was Controller of BBC One in 1985. In February of that year, he announced that Doctor Who was cancelled; later on, he announced instead that it would be "rested" for eighteen months.

Brendan, who was basically born to find redemptive readings for the worst Doctor Who stories ever, is a major contributor to the newly-published, Hating to Love: Re-evaluating the 52 Worst Doctor Who Stories of All Time, which is available in all good bookstores everywhere. And on the Kindle.

On ths week's show, Danica fixes another broken part of Brandon, as he finally finishes his exploration of series one with "Bad Wolf" (Episode Twelve) and "The Parting of The Ways" (Episode Thirteen) and finds it to be quite fantastic. Then, they talk about "Age of Steel" (Series Two, Episode Six... or Seven if you count the Christmas Special) and they don't get distracted by James Wolk at all. At. ALL.
