Harry and Benton are back, but no one cares, as robot replicas of Brendan, Nathan and Richard trudge through Terry Nation's penultimate Doctor Who story, The Android Invasion.

Buy the story!

The Android Invasion was released on DVD in 2012. In the UK and Australia, it was released as part of the UNIT Files box set, along with Invasion of the Dinosaurs (Amazon UK). It was released on its own in the US (Amazon US).

Notes and links

We're going to put you through a whole lot of terrible vintage televsion in this episode's shownotes, so are you sitting comfortably? Then let's begin.

Here's Patrick Macnee's John Steed standing in front of the Cock Inn from The New Avengers title sequence. Ooh-er!

Nathan's phrase "robot replica" was shamelessly lifted from an episode of Steven Moffat's Press Gang called UnXpected, in which the eponymous gang encounter the fictional hero of a terrible, terrible 70s science fiction TV series. Which is probably just a coincidence.

Fans of actual robot replicas will enjoy The Stepford Wives (1976) and Westworld (1973).

Such fans will also enjoy The Avengers episode The Hour that Never Was, not because of robot replicas, because there aren't any, but because it's just superb.

And such fans will be completely overwhelmed by these Six Million Dollar Man episodes: Steve Austin fights a robot replica of someone else in Day of the Robot, and there's a robot woman with a Sarah-from-the-Part-2-cliffhanger face in the Bionic Woman crossover Kill Oscar.

Milton Johns talks about Guy Crayford's eyepatch in this BBC interview.

Fans of robot replicas of English villages will enjoy the Danger Man episode Colony Three.

No one at all will enjoy Terry Nation's first Avengers episode Invasion of the Earthmen, which was described by the Avengers Forever website as "one of the worst classics Avengers episodes of all time".

The Get Off My World guys are back with part one of a two-part podcast looking at Doctor Who role-playing games with special guests Twin Cites theater and game maker Tim Uren and Pagan Publishing head honcho Scott Glancy! Join the guys as they reimagine fifty plus years of Doctor Who as one massive role-playing campaign, unpack the sandwich thematics from the 1972 Third Doctor adventure The Sea Devils, play an excerpt from Scott’s interview with role-playing game icon and contributer to FASA’s Doctor Who role-playing game Ray Winninger and take an unexpected journey through the convoluted head canon of Tim Uren!

We’re back! After a small break from saving the universe and recording podcasts the Tardis is back in the air. We’ve got plenty of news plus our review of a Troughton classic. Let’s do it…

The News

Our friends in the US will shortly be able to see the two-part finale from series 8 – Dark Water and Death in Heaven at the cinema in 3D and Dolby Atmos. Taking place on the 15th and 16th September this will be a nice event to lead you into series 9. Do a search for Fathom Events for ticket information.

Fancy owning a piece of Doctor Who history? One of the original Dalek props from 1963 that was also used in the docu-drama An Adventure in Space and Time is going up for auction soon. Dalek “Dave” will be among lots of original movie props and memorabilia at an auction on 23rd September at London’s BFI IMAX. Bring your savings however as Dalek “Dave” is expected to go for anywhere between PS4000 – PS6000.

Big Finish seem to have once again come up with a delightful pairing, this time our classic investigators Jago and Litefoot are teaming up with Sontaran Commander Strax. Due out this November and up for pre-order now, the story takes place in Victorian London where they’re on the trail of a creature stealing brains and a haunted house. It would be a crime to not order this one!

A new trailer for series 9 dropped a few days ago and we chew the fat a little on what we can expect, what the Doctor will be wearing and will Clara be finally leaving or sticking around?

Lastly, some big names from Who have been seen together in and around Cardiff. David Tennant, Paul McGann and Russell T Davies have all been seen together and have got tongues wagging. We’re not reading too much into RTD based on his last comments about returning to Who but McGann and Tennant have the cogs turning. Hmmmm.

“The Mind Robber” Review

We’re off to The Land of Fiction for a classic Who story and that loveable fool Patrick Troughton. Full of suspense, humour and fairy tale this 60’s story pleases a lot of fans, but does it impress enough?

This week’s trivia question

Last episode we asked you – What was the 100th story to be broadcast? The answer was The Stones of Blood.

This week’s question is – By what names do the Doctor and his companions call themselves in the Gunfighters? Give us your answer in the comments below or post it on Twitter or Facebook. Good luck!

It’s been awesome being back and recording once more, the natural order of things is now restored. Join us next week for more news and our review of Matt Smith’s Hide. Have a great week and until then – Allons-y!

PODcastica is back! John has traveled throughout time and space to bring two very special guest to this week's episode! Monica and Jacque from "Girls Interrupting" enter the time vortex to sit down and discuss "Silence in the Library" and "Forest of the Dead"!

We were supposed to be talking about the trailer. We got a tad off topic. We only got through about have the Maisie Williams theories. And we know the Moff recently said Maisie Williams is a "new character," but he often says things that turn out not to be true or are true on a technicality and decided Williams mat be someone we know-ish. There are lots of left overs that I'll post in two weeks with the outtakes. We've also decided Ken is an official member of the podcast.

Jason and Paul are back to give their thoughts on a few brief pieces of news, and to then jump into their most villainous episode yet!  You can't have the Doctor without all of his foes. So, they run down their favorite villains in all of Doctor Who history!  See who made their list, and who didn't, in this episode of Talking Timelords, "Our Top 5 Villains!"

They're not what you think.

On this week's show, things are happening. TERRIBLE THINGS! Or I guess more accurately, drunk things. First, Danica and Brandon watch "The Idiot's Lantern" (Series 2, Episode 7) where the Doctor and Rose fight an HBO show, I guess? Then it's straight onto "The Doctor's Daughter" (Series 4, Episode 6) where we contemplate the meta story and almost break our pickled brains.

Sex stuff will happen.

Bryan Lewis of legendary Norfolk bands The Gloom! and Humanoids From the Deep joins us to discuss the third series episode, “Lazarus.”

While The Doctor is dropping off Martha after their "one" trip in the TARDIS a story on the news catches his eye and soon they're off on another adventure. The brilliant Dr. Richard Lazarus has figured out how to reverse the aging process. Meanwhile the effects of Dr. Lazarus' experiment have started to show as he becomes the Scorpion King of Death. The Doctor defeats the Scorpion King by playing his organ to defeat the CGI monster once and for all. In the end Marth and the Doctor leave again for more adventures despite ominous warnings from Harold Saxon to Martha's mom.

OK, so that was a great second trailer for Series 9, with loads and loads of Daleks.

Except for those guys introduced in "Victory of the Daleks."

Alas, the New Paradigm.

In this week’s episode we take a little break from reviews to discuss Shaun and Keith’s trips to Kansas City Comic Con which in its first year featured none other than the Sixth Doctor, Colin Baker. Both recount their visits to KC and experiences at the con.

Also, lots of other convention announcements to get to, including LI Who, Chicago TARDIS, Gallifrey One, and our local convention, TopCon.

Plus, we talk about the news of the week, including an unsettling rumor about the possible fate of Doctor Who next year, and we speculate on what it could mean if it’s true.

And, of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!
