Latest Podcast Episodes

In this week’s podcast, we put our Doctor Who reviews to one side briefly for something a little bit different. In the first of a series of specials we are calling ‘Beyond the Doctor’ were looking at the William Hartnell acting vehicle, Carry On Sergeant. We’ll review the film and give our impressions on the actor’s take on a role that is different from the one we are very most familiar with in Doctor Who.

Also, we’ve added a little segment that we hope to continue from time to time. It’s our ‘Doctor Who: Legacy – Tip of the Week”. In this week’s installment, Glenn will have a tip for farming time fragments necessary for leveling up characters in the game.

Plus, the news of the week, including something of a scoop for us in news coming out of Planet ComicCon with the announcement of another Doctor Who guest.

And, of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!

Who are they? Listen and find out! You’ll also hear a drabble of news, but more importantly, we also have a fun interview panel from Chicago TARDIS with Annette Badland, Noel Clarke, and Camille Coduri! Can you stand the excitement?

We're correcting what we see as an oversight this week by reviewing the Forth Doctor story "City of Death".  This was also an opportunity for Daisy to show this story to a New Who friend interested in going back and watching Classic Who. 

We've also got lots of Gally news.

In this episode of Playing Doctor Podcast we travel to the Kempsville Area Library in Virginia Beach. We were pleased to be invited to participate in the Library’s Doctor Who night “Calling All Whovians” and we look forward to participating again in the future (or maybe even the past, because TARDIS). The night’s discussion was “Doctor Who: Fifty Years to Overnight Success”. We examined how that even though Doctor Who has been on the air and popular in Britain since 1963 and enjoyed niche success in the US during the 1970s and 80s, it wasn’t until 2010 and the arrival of Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor that Doctor Who exploded in popularity in the United States. While this isn’t a SPOILER episode we do discuss several topics across all five decades of Doctor Who so there may be a few minor spoilers.

Special thanks go out to Librarian Denise Walker and Crystal Parker for inviting us to the show. We really enjoyed ourselves and were honored to be asked to participate in the evening’s events.

If you’re in the area be sure to check out some of the other fun events at the Kempsville Area Library.

It's time for another Target book review and this time Phil and Paul have chosen Destiny Of The Daleks written by Terrance Dicks. Phil is not such a fan of this story, so his judgement is already quite clouded, while Paul tries to find the good story lurking beneath. While this book is the fastest release Target made after a story's transmission (and it shows!), the shabby nature of the TV serial shines through which only leads Phil to conclude that the one thing that could have saved the book and the TV serial is extra boobs.

And in the news this week, how Doctor Who fared at the National Television awards, some more series 9 updates, Russell T. Davies on writing a Doctor Who movie script and in Omega's Tat Corner it's kitchen tat and some new figures that evoke memories of a BBC newsreader from days gone by.

My classic series mini reviews return with a look at Doctor Who: The Massacre for which I watched a recon and listened to the soundtrack CD.

Red Kang or blue? It's classic years this week and we review the McCoy era story Paradise Towers. Is it ice hot or does it leave us a little lukewarm?

Doctor Who is staying put on Netflix. There's been lots of chatter for the past few weeks and even a few petitions have appeared since the BBC's contract has been in question with Netflix. Good news has prevailed however and The Doctor is here to stay, at least for now.

Russell T Davies' confuses us a little this week after his comments recently. In the last episode we told you that he wouldn't be making a return to write for Doctor Who and wanted to move on but in his latest interview he says that if a DW movie was presented he would absolutely do it. Yeah, we thought it was weird too.

It was the National Television Awards on Wednesday 21st Jan and although DW didn't win in the Best Drama category (that went to the rip-roaring action packed thriller Downton Abbey) the 10th Doctor himself David Tennant did pick up the Special Recognition Award. Completely justified as he's an amazing actor and for us Who fans he always carries the show's torch with pride.

It's back to the 80's and the McCoy era as we talk through a story that often divides opinion but are we Red Kangs or Blue? Is the Great Architect a suitable monster and what purpose did Pex serve? Find out and more as we chew the fat and give you our rating.

Thank you for getting in touch and posting your thoughts on this week's review. Next week it's The Doctor's Daughter so jump on to Facebook or Twitter and give us your thoughts. Until next time - Allons-y!!!

It's been a LONG time since we've done a Throwback Review. So let's pick up where we left off: with an insufferable TARDIS couple realizing that things are just a little bit complicated, and a heaping helping of nostalgia from the Archetypal Companion and the Shooty Dog Thing.

In the mountains of Tibet, an ancient force has awoken and is taking over minds, one by one, to help in it's plan to take over the world. No, The Oncoming Storm isn't changing format to talk about missing stories like The Abominable Snowmen. No, this week, Josh and Ashley, with guests Jeff and Dr. Scott, are looking at that *other* story that takes place in Tibet, The Roof of the World by Adrian Rigelsford. No, No, not the episode of Marco Polo. The Big Finish audio. The one that features the 5th Doctor, Peri, and Erimem fighting an evil from the dawn of time that had been trapped by ancient Egyptians. In Tibet. And in a coincidence that totally have nothing to do with anything related to this week's story, we discuss what you do when you find out an author may not be all you thought they were. The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got freeze guns, by way of Peri's ... botany skills?

JC and Rita are back! After a long vacation, the dynamic duo hit the ground running by previewing the best new movies and television shows of 2015. Included in the preview is Jurassic World, Star Wars VII – The Force Awakens, I Zombie, Fear the Walking Dead and more!

Edge of Destruction

Adam, Debbie, Mary and Kirby review this little tidler of a story.

Plus, feedback, news and You Won't Get This One.

That's right! We're back with another edition of In Defence Of! (And yes, now that I live in Canada, I've started spelling it with a "c". Sometimes.) Join Deb, Erika, Lynne, and Tansy as we try (oh golly do we try) to defend the topics and concepts our dear sweet CRUEL listeners have suggested. "Dimensions in Time"? The eyebrow agenda? The Dalek episodes with the pig people? And even more! This wasn't easy, but it sure as heck was fun!

^E

It's time for more "MUTTERS Classic" - yes, a repeat from our archives - today, following on last week's podcast on "Blink", we look at "The Time of Angels" - part 1 of the 2 part Weeping Angel story from Series 5 - this is the 4th 11th Doctor episode as well as the 4th MUTTER'S SPIRAL episode  - May 10, 2010 - so it's from the early days!  I'm sure there's lots of discussion, gushing and trivia!  We again did a quick intro - not much news this week, but just a little hello.  If you're so inclined, take a listen!  Enjoy!  

On the nineteenth episode of Reality Bomb, guest host Erika Ensign talks about Last Christmas with Lindsey Mayers, Cat Smith and author Rebecca Diem about Last Christmas. We discuss the growing popularity of Doctor Who Legacy with gamer and vlogger TheAdiposeTV. And television producer David Barsky takes us on a visit to Voga the Planet of Gold as Revenge of the Cybermen makes its way to the Gallery of the Underrated. Plus Alex Kennard returns to audio essays and muses on the reaction of fans to series 8 and we look at gatekeeping Doctor Who fandom. Literally.

This week we get a little silly, but take a break in out madness to review a couple of Eighth Doctor stories. In this show, we look at (or listen to, rather) Eight’s break out series by Big Finish, Blood of the Daleks parts 1 and 2. Hear our impressions in the new format of audio drama that was developed for BBC Radio 7.

And, we discuss our first impressions of new companion, Lucie Miller

Also, we look at some news of the week, including last minute negotiations between the BBC and Internet streaming service, Netflix.

Plus, a few more Gallifrey One convention guest announcements.

And of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!

A glorious reunion with three Smiths, two tin dogs, and genetically modified gargoyles who are allergic to their own oil.

The post N017 School Reunion appeared first on Who Back When | A Doctor Who Podcast.

Back to our regularly scheduled programing, we turn the clock back to the Troughton era, when the Second Doctor fought tirelessly alongside everyone's favorite companions of those years, Jamie and Zoe, and they faced a recognized foe, the Ice Warrior.  Yes, it's a discussion of "The Seeds of Death", often confused with another story from years later "The Seeds of Doom", a fact of the tragedy of the random Doctor Who name generator.

With us on this journey to the moon by rocket is our good friend David Hooie.  We talk a little bit about David's early years with the show and about his podcast, Hoo on Who, before he deposits us via his own TARDIS into a location yet to be disclosed.  Stay tuned....

Look for us on Facebook, send us email vis tardistavern@gmail.com, and follow Sean on Twitter via @tardistavern.  You can also follow David Hooie via @DavidHooie.

When Jayden was offered the chance to travel in space and time with the Doctor in the TARDIS, it was an offer too good to pass up. And the first planet the Doctor takes him to definitely lives up to expectations. Orange seas, shining buildings, floating cars, talking servobots – the City of Blinding Light is everything you could expect in a futuristic city.

But while Jayden is dazzled by how alien the aliens are, the Doctor is concerned with other things. People are going missing in Blinding Light leaving strange energy traces even the Doctor can’t identify. And when the K-9 unit the Doctor once left with an old friend is destroyed, the Doctor soon learns that once again he’s brought his friends to a world of deadly danger.

But even the Doctor doesn’t know how bad things are. A new race of beings are about to be born, a race of infinite power that will shake the universe forever, and Jayden is the only one who will be able to defeat it…

In this week episode, the Who's He? Podcast look at another Big Finish title The Auntie Matter starring Tom Baker and Mary Tamm. In this tale of chinless wonders, maiden Aunts and apologetic murderous robot butlers, Phil and Paul lament the fact this is the first ever story that they have reviewed that features Mary Tamm and can't believe why they haven't featured her so far and they discuss whether this story really fits in with season 16.

And in the news, there are no stats!! But there is news of Russell T. Davies of never wanting to write for Doctor Who again, some more series 9 filming news and John Barrowman announces the return of further Torchwood audio stories that gives Phil unwanted flashbacks to Miracle Day.
