Latest Podcast Episodes

Once again we step away from the Doctor Who Universe to examine films that the actors who played the Doctor have starred in over the years.

As you now know, this gives us a chance to look at a greater body of work outside of the character we know and love.

And, because it is almost Halloween, we’re reviewing movies that could be considered a horror, a thriller, or just spooky in story and tone.

This time we look at War Doctor actor, John Hurt and the 60’s Dalek films Doctor, Peter Cushing in the 1975 Tyburn Film Productions’ The Ghoul and Thirteenth Doctor actress, Jodie Whittaker in the 2011 British science fiction comedy horror film, Attack the Block.

We hope you are enjoying our little diversion.

We present our retrospective of William Hartnell’s First Doctor era, where we reveal the results of our Top 5 Stories poll among our listeners.

(00:41:41) The Weetabix TV advert during this intermission can be found here.

(00:54:10) The Reverend Captain Hullo Porro (better known to his friends and admirers as The Rev – better known to his family as Andy) is one of the three founding hosts of the Diddly Dum Podcast and one of our active hosts from podcasts 01 to 27 (because once a Diddly Dum host, always a Diddly Dum host).  The magnificent artwork which accompanied our first 27 podcasts was the work of the Rev and can been seen at the start of our commemorative podcast 100 video here. His professional artwork can be seen here.

(00:54:54) The specialist Viking horn afforded to Mark here for his “Rassilon’s Horn” moment comes of course from the 1958 film “The Vikings”. It can be heard as a central theme of the film’s music soundtrack and seen 2 mins 15 secs into this video clip.

(01:03:25) My trawl through the whole Hartnell era in order to trace his character development through his different means of addressing Ian can be found on my own blog here.

This week, we look at a medium where Colin's reputation as the Doctor is second to none. To that end, Nathan is only pretending to be evil, Brendan has two peglegs, Todd is having a hard time assembling some shelving, and Richard is just a shadow of his former self. It's Colin Baker, in the Big Finish audio adventures!

• The One Doctor, by Gareth Roberts and Clayton Hickman.
• The Brink of Death, by Nicholas Briggs, the final story in The Last Adventure box set.

Notes and links

Jubilee

Rob Shearman has written a number of Big Finish audios, and some books, including Love Songs for the Shy and Cynical and Everyone's Just So Special. These are all available from his page on the Big Finish website.

Fans of upsetting and occasionally funny near-future dystopias will enjoy Black Mirror, which is available on Netflix.

As usual, Elizabeth Sandifer has an insighful take on this story, which Nathan is impressed by. Shearman himself comments on the article.

If you're in the mood for a much more harrowing patriarchal dystopia, Hulu has recently made a brilliant TV adaptation of Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale.

Doctor Who and the Pirates

This story was written by Jac Rayner, who has written a number of Doctor Who plays and novels. She also maintains a blog.

The One Doctor

Richard and Nathan both remember watching The Maths Show in primary school, which occasional featured a segment called Doctor Where, in which the Doctor and Sally-Anne explained concepts like scale and probability.

The hapless Fry drinks the emperor of the planet Trisol in the Futurama episode My Three Suns.

The Brink of Death

Michael Jayston starred in a dramatisation of Geoffrey Household's 1939 novel, Rogue Male, in which a British ex-serviceman travels to Europe to assassinate the unnamed dictator of a major power. (Oh, okay, it's probably Hitler.)

What you are about to hear is the story of a connection, a connection that was made between a television series and a viewer's life.

The You and Who books are the story of that connection, as told by the people who watch the programmes that make us come alive. Chiefly, of course, Doctor Who.

This podcast will relate some of the stories from those books... and beyond.

In this episode:

Lives, Loves, and (non-Time) Lords by David Busch

With an introduction featuring Rob Irwin talking to JR Southall.

The You and Who books, from which all royalties are paid to charity, are available in print and for Kindle, from watchingbooks.weebly.com

Joining us this month is a powerhouse in the world of Big Finish.  She's a writer, actor, singer, dancer, producer, director, and all-around fantastic person - Helen Goldwyn!  Helen takes time out to talk to us about her very busy career on stage and at Big Finish, when she first discovered Doctor Who, and the life-changing experience that led her to directing.

Then Helen brings to us her Pick of the Month, the British/American produced comedy/drama, You, Me and the Apocalypse.  It's a genre-melding 10 episodes that features great performances by stars such as Rob Lowe, Megan Mullally, Jenna Fischer, and Mathew Baynton.  What would YOU do if an asteroid was belting toward Earth in 30 days?

Before the interview, we take a few minutes to reflect on the life of the legendary Terrance Dicks and what he's meant to multiple generations of Doctor Who fans.

As regular listeners know, Rob and Dave differentiate the Doctor Who Show from most other Who podcasts by seldom talking about a single Doctor Who story as the main segment of their monthly shows. Their topics are usually broader, taking in multiple stories as they work their way through a topic.

This month, however, the guys have decided to mix things up and do something a little different by taking a deep dive on the penultimate (and underrated?) Tom Baker story, The Keeper of Traken, as the main focus of the episode.

Before they get there, however, they follow their usual format of cherry picking some of the more interesting Doctor Who news stories for the previous month, and also rattle through a few quick 'mini topics' of their own.

Keeper of Traken listener comments from: FilmArk Reviews @mattbarberuk; Rob Kelly @robkellytweets; Darren Signal @dcsignal

As regular listeners know, Rob and Dave differentiate the Doctor Who Show from most other Who podcasts by seldom talking about a single Doctor Who story as the main segment of their monthly shows. Their topics are usually broader, taking in multiple stories as they work their way through a topic.

This month, however, the guys have decided to mix things up and do something a little different by taking a deep dive on the penultimate (and underrated?) Tom Baker story, The Keeper of Traken, as the main focus of the episode.

Before they get there, however, they follow their usual format of cherry picking some of the more interesting Doctor Who news stories for the previous month, and also rattle through a few quick 'mini topics' of their own.

This week, we look at a medium where Colin’s reputation as the Doctor is second to none. To that end, Nathan is only pretending to be evil, Brendan has two peglegs, Todd is having a hard time assembling some shelving, and Richard is just a shadow of his former self. It’s Colin Baker, in the Big Finish audio adventures!

Buy the stories!

The stories we discuss this week are all available for download from the Big Finish website.

• Jubilee, by Rob Shearman.
• Doctor Who and the Pirates, by Jacqueline Rayner.
• The One Doctor, by Gareth Roberts and Clayton Hickman.
• The Brink of Death, by Nicholas Briggs, the final story in The Last Adventure box set.

Notes and links

Jubilee

Rob Shearman has written a number of Big Finish audios, and some books, including Love Songs for the Shy and Cynical and Everyone’s Just So Special. These are all available from his page on the Big Finish website.

Fans of upsetting and occasionally funny near-future dystopias will enjoy Black Mirror, which is available on Netflix.

As usual, Elizabeth Sandifer has an insighful take on this story, which Nathan is impressed by. Shearman himself comments on the article.

If you’re in the mood for a much more harrowing patriarchal dystopia, Hulu has recently made a brilliant TV adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale.

Doctor Who and the Pirates

This story was written by Jac Rayner, who has written a number of Doctor Who plays and novels. She also maintains a blog.

The One Doctor

Richard and Nathan both remember watching The Maths Show in primary school, which occasional featured a segment called Doctor Where, in which the Doctor and Sally-Anne explained concepts like scale and probability.

The hapless Fry drinks the emperor of the planet Trisol in the Futurama episode My Three Suns.

The Brink of Death

Michael Jayston starred in a dramatisation of Geoffrey Household’s 1939 novel, Rogue Male, in which a British ex-serviceman travels to Europe to assassinate the unnamed dictator of a major power. (Oh, okay, it’s probably Hitler.)
