Flight Through Entirety: A Doctor Who Podcast Episodes

I Know Very Little About Telebiogenesis
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 42 minutes and 29 secondsWe said goodbye to Tom last week, and so this week all four of us are here to discuss Pete’s first story, set on a delightfully bucolic planet in the Phylox series. Time to dress up like a cricketer and lock yourself in a small cupboard — it’s Castrovalva.
Buy the story!
Castrovalva was released on DVD in 2007. In the US, it was available on its own (Amazon US), but, again, in the UK and Australia, it was part of the New Beginnings box set, which also included The Keeper of Traken and Logopolis (Amazon UK).
Notes and links
Famously, Bidmead was inspired to write this story by M. C. Escher’s 1930 lithograph Castrovalva.
Arthur Rackham was an illustrator of children’s books in the early 20th century. Edith Nesbit, more of whom in a few weeks, wrote children’s books at about the same time, including The Railway Children and Five Children and It.
We first mentioned the Bechdel Test in Episode 27. Does this story feature a scene where two named women have a discussion that isn’t about a man?
We’ve mentioned it a couple of times before, and it’s just excellent, so we’ll mention it again: Blue Box Boy, in which Matthew Waterhouse tells the story of his childhood as a Doctor Who fan, his time on the show, and his subsequent life on the convention circuit. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK) (Amazon AU)
Like Todd, you can impress your friends with an encyclopedic knowledge of Doctor Who’s ratings throughout history by consulting this handy guide on the Doctor Who News website.
Famously, Bill Oddie from The Goodies invented string; while The Goons invented two pieces of string.
Richard compares Castrovalva to the short story The Circular Ruins, written by Argentine magic realist author Jorge Luis Borges and published in 1940.
Fans of Peter Davison’s superb Antony Ainley impression will enjoy his audiobook version of Castrovalva. (Audible US) (Audible UK) (Audible AU)

And you even get to see him dance in the outtakes. Enjoy the spectacle by subscribing on YouTube.
Bondfinger
Our tenth commentary track on the Bond films is now up: it’s The Man with the Golden Gun. Okay, it’s not the best Bond film (be quiet, Nathan), but it’s quite a Rogertaining episode of Bondfinger. Other commentaries are also available, starting with Dr. No and even including the inexplicable 1967 film Casino Royale. You can find these commentaries on our website, and you can keep up with all the Bondfinger news on Twitter and Facebook.

We first mentioned the Bechdel Test in Episode 27. Does this story feature a scene where two named women have a discussion that isn't about a man?
We've mentioned it a couple of times before, and it's just excellent, so we'll mention it again: Blue Box Boy, in which Matthew Waterhouse tells the story of his childhood as a Doctor Who fan, his time on the show, and his subsequent life on the convention circuit. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK) (Amazon AU)
Like Todd, you can impress your friends with an encyclopedic knowledge of Doctor Who's ratings throughout history by consulting this handy guide on the Doctor Who News website.
Famously, Bill Oddie from The Goodies invented string; while The Goons invented two pieces of string.
Richard compares Castrovalva to the short story The Circular Ruins, written by Argentine magic realist author Jorge Luis Borges and published in 1940.
Fans of Peter Davison's superb Antony Ainley impression will enjoy his audiobook version of Castrovalva. (Audible US) (Audible UK) (Audible AU)

Bondfinger
Our tenth commentary track on the Bond films is now up: it's The Man with the Golden Gun. Okay, it's not the best Bond film (be quiet, Nathan), but it's quite a Rogertaining episode of Bondfinger.

Episode 77 I Know Very Little About Telebiogenesis
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 42 minutes and 29 secondsWe said goodbye to Tom last week, and so this week all four of us are here to discuss Pete's first story, set on a delightfully bucolic planet in the Phylox series. Time to dress up like a cricketer and lock yourself in a small cupboard -- it's Castrovalva.
Buy the story!
Castrovalva was released on DVD in 2007. In the US, it was available on its own (Amazon US), but, again, in the UK and Australia, it was part of the New Beginnings box set, which also included The Keeper of Traken and Logopolis (Amazon UK).

Episode 76 K9 and Commentary
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 54 minutes and 1 secondThis week Bondfinger meets Flight Through Entirety, as we attempt our first ever Doctor Who-related commentary podcast. DVD remotes on standby: it's the lump of coal in all of our 1981 Christmas stockings -- the first and worst Doctor Who spinoff: K9 and Company: A Girl's Best Friend. (Other Doctor Who spinoffs are also available.)
Buy the story
K9 and Company was released on DVD in 2008 as part of the K9 Tales box set, which also includes the execrable Season 15 story The Invisible Enemy. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK).
Notes and links
As usual in the 70s, we reference a whole bunch of Avengers episodes, including Murdersville, The Winged Avenger and The Midas Touch from The New Avengers.
Colin Jeavons appears in some vastly better television programmes: he's Stamper in the original BBC House of Cards, directed by Graff Vynda-K Paul Seed, and Max Quordlepleen in the somewhat terrible television adaptation of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
Fans of children's television who don't hate themselves will enjoy these seminal programmes: Robin Redbreast, Children of the Stones, Sky and the Chocky trilogy, based on Chocky by John Wyndham.
The K9 and Company Annual is included in the K9 Tales box set, so if you're as sad as we are, you probably own it already.
Acorn Antiques was a hilarious series of sketches on Victoria Wood as Seen on TV, which parodies the conventions of badly made television programmes. You can see it all here, and you really, really must.
Hilary Briss, played by Doctor Who's very own Mark Gatiss, secretly sold special stuff to the inhabitants of Royston Vasey in the horrific and superlatively clever League of Gentlemen TV series.
The Travelling Salesman problem is a giant thing in computer science, which posits that it's really, really hard to work out the shortest route to take to cover a whole bunch of known locations. So no wonder K9 was so incredibly unhelpful.
Here's the Literal Video version of Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart. If you click one link in these shownotes, it must, must, must be this one.
And, of course, the best Doctor Who spinoff ever (apart from Wizards vs Aliens which totally doesn't count), is The Sarah Jane Adventures. Take that, Terence Dudley.

Doctor Who in 10 Seconds
Fans of lightning-fast summaries of the stories of the William Hartnell Era will enjoy Doctor Who in 10 Seconds, in which the lovely Brendan summarises Doctor Who stories with considerable wit, verve and rhythm. And you even get to see him dance in the outtakes. Enjoy the spectacle by visiting the webpage or subscribing on YouTube.
Bondfinger
Our tenth commentary track on the Bond films is now up: it's The Man with the Golden Gun. Okay, it's not the best Bond film (be quiet, Nathan), but it's quite a Rogertaining episode of Bondfinger. Other commentaries are also available, starting with Dr. No and even including the inexplicable 1967 film Casino Royale.

I Know Very Little About Telebiogenesis
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 42 minutes and 28 secondsWe said goodbye to Tom last week, and so this week all four of us are here to discuss Pete’s first story, set on a delightfully bucolic planet in the Phylox series. Time to dress up like a cricketer and lock yourself in a small cupboard — it’s Castrovalva.
Buy the story!
Castrovalva was released on DVD in 2007. In the US, it was available on its own (Amazon US), but, again, in the UK and Australia, it was part of the New Beginnings box set, which also included The Keeper of Traken and Logopolis (Amazon UK).
Notes and links
Famously, Bidmead was inspired to write this story by M. C. Escher’s 1930 lithograph Castrovalva.
Arthur Rackham was an illustrator of children’s books in the early 20th century. Edith Nesbit, more of whom in a few weeks, wrote children’s books at about the same time, including The Railway Children and Five Children and It.
We first mentioned the Bechdel Test in Episode 27. Does this story feature a scene where two named women have a discussion that isn’t about a man?
We’ve mentioned it a couple of times before, and it’s just excellent, so we’ll mention it again: Blue Box Boy, in which Matthew Waterhouse tells the story of his childhood as a Doctor Who fan, his time on the show, and his subsequent life on the convention circuit. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK) (Amazon AU)
Like Todd, you can impress your friends with an encyclopedic knowledge of Doctor Who’s ratings throughout history by consulting this handy guide on the Doctor Who News website.
Famously, Bill Oddie from The Goodies invented string; while The Goons invented two pieces of string.
Richard compares Castrovalva to the short story The Circular Ruins, written by Argentine magic realist author Jorge Luis Borges and published in 1940.
Fans of Peter Davison’s superb Antony Ainley impression will enjoy his audiobook version of Castrovalva. (Audible US) (Audible UK) (Audible AU)

Episode 76 K9 and Commentary
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 54 minutes and 1 secondThis week Bondfinger meets Flight Through Entirety, as we attempt our first ever Doctor Who-related commentary podcast. DVD remotes on standby: it's the lump of coal in all of our 1981 Christmas stockings -- the first and worst Doctor Who spinoff: K9 and Company: A Girl's Best Friend. (Other Doctor Who spinoffs are also available.)
Buy the story
K9 and Company was released on DVD in 2008 as part of the K9 Tales box set, which also includes the execrable Season 15 story The Invisible Enemy. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK).
Notes and links
As usual in the 70s, we reference a whole bunch of Avengers episodes, including Murdersville, The Winged Avenger and The Midas Touch from The New Avengers.
Colin Jeavons appears in some vastly better television programmes: he's Stamper in the original BBC House of Cards, directed by Graff Vynda-K Paul Seed, and Max Quordlepleen in the somewhat terrible television adaptation of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
Fans of children's television who don't hate themselves will enjoy these seminal programmes: Robin Redbreast, Children of the Stones, Sky and the Chocky trilogy, based on Chocky by John Wyndham.
The K9 and Company Annual is included in the K9 Tales box set, so if you're as sad as we are, you probably own it already.
Acorn Antiques was a hilarious series of sketches on Victoria Wood as Seen on TV, which parodies the conventions of badly made television programmes. You can see it all here, and you really, really must.
Hilary Briss, played by Doctor Who's very own Mark Gatiss, secretly sold special stuff to the inhabitants of Royston Vasey in the horrific and superlatively clever League of Gentlemen TV series.
The Travelling Salesman problem is a giant thing in computer science, which posits that it's really, really hard to work out the shortest route to take to cover a whole bunch of known locations. So no wonder K9 was so incredibly unhelpful.
Here's the Literal Video version of Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart. If you click one link in these shownotes, it must, must, must be this one.
And, of course, the best Doctor Who spinoff ever (apart from Wizards vs Aliens which totally doesn't count), is The Sarah Jane Adventures. Take that, Terence Dudley.

DVD remotes on standby: it's the lump of coal in all of our 1981 Christmas stockings -- the first and worst Doctor Who spinoff: K9 and Company: A Girl's Best Friend. (Other Doctor Who spinoffs are also available.)
Buy the story
K9 and Company was released on DVD in 2008 as part of the K9 Tales box set, which also includes the execrable Season 15 story The Invisible Enemy. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK).
Notes and links
As usual in the 70s, we reference a whole bunch of Avengers episodes, including Murdersville, The Winged Avenger and The Midas Touch from The New Avengers.
Colin Jeavons appears in some vastly better television programmes: he's Stamper in the original BBC House of Cards, directed by Graff Vynda-K Paul Seed, and Max Quordlepleen in the somewhat terrible television adaptation of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
Fans of children's television who don't hate themselves will enjoy these seminal programmes: Robin Redbreast, Children of the Stones, Sky and the Chocky trilogy, based on Chocky by John Wyndham.
The K9 and Company Annual is included in the K9 Tales box set, so if you're as sad as we are, you probably own it already.
Acorn Antiques was a hilarious series of sketches on Victoria Wood as Seen on TV, which parodies the conventions of badly made television programmes. You can see it all here, and you really, really must.
Hilary Briss, played by Doctor Who's very own Mark Gatiss, secretly sold special stuff to the inhabitants of Royston Vasey in the horrific and superlatively clever League of Gentlemen TV series.
The Travelling Salesman problem is a giant thing in computer science, which posits that it's really, really hard to work out the shortest route to take to cover a whole bunch of known locations. So no wonder K9 was so incredibly unhelpful.
Here's the Literal Video version of Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart. If you click one link in these shownotes, it must, must, must be this one.
And, of course, the best Doctor Who spinoff ever (apart from Wizards vs Aliens which totally doesn't count), is The Sarah Jane Adventures. Take that, Terence Dudley.

It’s All About Him
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 13 minutes and 0 secondsWell… it’ll just go on and on and on and on, because it’s part of our television, isn’t it? Why should it stop, there’s no evidence… everyone’s been very successful in it.
Tom’s gone, so it’s time for another retrospective episode, ably compered by Sir Todd Beilby. Who will we snog, marry and avoid this time?
Notes and links
Fans of Tom Baker will enjoy his 1997 biography Who on Earth is Tom Baker? (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
Pearl Mackie is introduced as Peter Capaldi’s new companion when she faces the Daleks in this introductory video.
The Robots of Death do return, in the Kaldor City audios and in Robophobia, a Big Finish audio starring Sylvester McCoy as the Doctor.
Tom’s Doctor makes his comic debut in 1975, in the TV Comic strip Death Flower.
Chris Boucher’s terrible (but highly absorbent) BBC Books include Last Man Running and Corpse Marker.

It’s All About Him
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 13 minutes and 0 secondsWell… it’ll just go on and on and on and on, because it’s part of our television, isn’t it? Why should it stop, there’s no evidence… everyone’s been very successful in it.
Tom’s gone, so it’s time for another retrospective episode, ably compered by Sir Todd Beilby. Who will we snog, marry and avoid this time?

Full of Orphans
Episode Duration: 0 days, 1 hours, 31 minutes and 35 secondsIt’s the end, but the moment has been prepared for.
This episode, we say farewell to the star of Doctor Who’s last seven years and a huge part of our childhoods: the Great Curator himself, Tom Baker. On the way, we discuss gravity, orphans, Auntie Vanessa’s outfit, agnosticism and the untimely destruction of the entire universe. It’s Logopolis.
Buy the story!
Logopolis was released on DVD in 2007. In the US, it was available on its own (Amazon US), but, again, in the UK and Australia, it was part of the New Beginnings box set, which also included The Keeper of Traken and Castrovalva (Amazon UK).
Notes and links
In Australia, we were fortunate to have Doctor Who four or five nights a week at 6:30 PM just before the ABC News. But, between new seasons and endless repeats of Pertwee’s final year, we were treated to the Japanese television series Monkey, which was dubbed by fabulous English actors like Doctor Who’s very own David Collings, and newly-welcomed Australian citizen Miriam Margolyes.
Richard’s mention of frocks and guns gives us the perfect opportunity to link to Nathan’s blog post on the subject.
Before receding into the background on Doctor Who, Sarah Sutton starred in a spooky television programme called The Moon Stallion (1978), along with her fellow Who-alumni David Haig and John Abinieri.
Fans of the sombre mystical brilliance of Season 18 will enjoy following script editor Christopher Bidmead on Twitter at @chbid.
Feeling overwhelmed by the inevitability of death, the ephemerality of pleasure and the fundamental grinding pointlessness of human existence? Of course you are. Unfortunately, The Doctor Who Pattern Book will do very little to cheer you up. And anyway it’s out of print.
Fortunately, the universe won’t last forever. Fans of cabalistic ideas the link between words and reality will enjoy Arthur C. Clarke’s 1953 short story The Nine Billion Names of God.

Inveterate essayist and Avengers fan recommends Avengerworld: The Avengers in Our Lives, a charity anthology produced in aid of Champion Chanzige, a charity which exists to improve conditions for underprivileged children at a primary school in Tanzania.
Nathan
Nathan has been enjoying The Greatest Generation, a Star Trek podcast by two guys who are a bit embarrassed to have a Star Trek podcast. Check out their website at gagh.biz.
Richard
Charmingly, Richard has been reading books about Wonder Woman, including Jill Lepore’s The Secret History of Wonder Woman (Amazon US) (Amazon UK), and our very own El Sandifer’s A Golden Thread: An Unofficial Critical History of Wonder Woman (Amazon US ) (Amazon UK).
Todd
Equally charmingly, Todd has been enjoying Tegan and Sara’s 2012 album Heartthrob, and particularly the song “I Was a Fool”. Buy it on iTunes. (Other online music retailers are also available.)
