SHOWNOTES

(00:00:00) Dez Skinn is a British comic and magazine editor and author of a number of books on comics. As head of Marvel Comics’ operations in the UK in the late 1970s, Dez reformatted existing titles, launched new ones, and acquired the BBC license for “Doctor Who Weekly”. After leaving Marvel UK, Dez founded and edited “Warrior”, which featured key works by Alan Moore. Called by some the “British Stan Lee”, Dez is one of British comics’ most influential figures (it says here). Dez’s website can be found here.

(00:00:00) Gareth Kavanagh is of course one of the legendary (i.e. we’re not entirely convinced that he actually exists but the stories about him are legion) eminences grises behind the “Vworp Vworp” fanzine and the Cutaway Comics imprint.

“Vworp Vworp” is a fanzine celebrating Doctor Who in comic strip form, as well as Doctor Who artwork in general and the history of “Doctor Who Magazine”.

Cutaway Comics is a new British imprint of comics and graphic novels drawn from the darker recesses of a dangerous, unpredictable cutaway universe. From the creators of Vworp Vworp! Magazine, they star some of the most enigmatic characters to have graced our screens. Beginning with a four-issue limited series written by Eric Saward (Doctor Who) and featuring the mercenary Lytton (as portrayed by Gangster’s Maurice Colbourne), Cutaway Comics is also bringing you art from the UK’s hottest artists including Barry Renshaw (Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog). Cutaway Comics is inspired by the so-called ‘backup’ strips of Doctor Who Weekly, which delved deeper into the characters and cultures of the Doctor Who universe away from the Doctor. Stay tuned for some exciting and unprecedented explorations of the worlds of Doctor Who and beyond.

(00:21:00) The Seacon article in The Guardian which Dez refers to here can be seen on our Tumblr page here.

(00:38:15) “Garth” was a comic strip in the British newspaper Daily Mirror that ran from 24 July 1943 – 22 March 1997. It belonged to the action-adventure genre and followed the exploits of the title character, an immensely strong hero who battled various villains throughout the world and in different eras. It was widely syndicated in English-speaking countries. 1960s Australian fast bowler Garth McKenzie was nicknamed after its hero.

(00:38:15) “George and Lynne”, the liberated couple created by writer Conrad Frost, first appeared in the British newspaper The Sun in 1976 and their adventures continued to appear until 2010.

(00:50:40) The “Guy Fawkes” pub in York can be seen on our Tumblr page here.

Alternate title: Hell Yeah, Mark Strickson! We were less enthusiastic about old Mark after we learned he was maybe possibly theoretically hypothetically a redhead, but also not one at the same time. Got give it up to him though. He was pretty fantastic in this story. Or should I say phantastic, with a “ph?” Probably not because it’s not spelled with a “ph,” but what is spelled with a “ph” is Phantasmagoria, written by Mark Gatiss and released on October 4, 1999.

Show-notes:
1:00: I suppose the cover is kind of orangey.
1:20: I dunno here’s a picture of Mark Strickson, decide for yourself what color his hair is. (Editor’s note: It’s chartreuse.)
2:45: This was the optical illusion I was talking about, courtesy of the Washington Post. I guess they had nothing better to report on or something. Anyway, I if you put your finger between A and B in the image, you’ll see that they’re the same color. That’s what I meant to say on recording. Here’s a bunch of similar illusions from the Washington Post.
3:28: Here’s our first attempt at this episode from like 5 years ago if you’d like to listen to it. I’m not going to.
6:35: Behold: stories set in 1702.
9:23: Here’s the wikipedia page on Almanac that Kiyan couldn’t find in a reasonable time span.
15:08: The Visitation is set in 1666.
19:28: Apparently it was true.
23:37: Check out our classic sci-fi podcast, Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast.
55:30: It’s Day of the Doctor that Kiyan is referring to here.
1:02:02 The P.R.O.B.E. videos are actually about Liz Shaw, they don’t even pretend it’s not, because of how rights worked. Also, if you know how/why P.R.O.B.E. stands for “Preternatural Research Bureau,” let us know, cause we’re stumped.
1:06:38 Seven Keys to Doomsday is an audio adaptation of a stage play.
1:07:50 The name of JB’s current Doctor Who podcast, if you weren’t aware, is Doctor Who Gives a F*ck.

1:20: I dunno here’s a picture of Mark Strickson, decide for yourself what color his hair is. (Editor’s note: It’s chartreuse.)
2:45: This was the optical illusion I was talking about, courtesy of the Washington Post. I guess they had nothing better to report on or something. Anyway, I if you put your finger between A and B in the image, you’ll see that they’re the same color. That’s what I meant to say on recording. Here’s a bunch of similar illusions from the Washington Post.
3:28: Here’s our first attempt at this episode from like 5 years ago if you’d like to listen to it. I’m not going to.
6:35: Behold: stories set in 1702.
9:23: Here’s the wikipedia page on Almanac that Kiyan couldn’t find in a reasonable time span.
15:08: The Visitation is set in 1666.
19:28: Apparently it was true.
23:37: Check out our classic sci-fi podcast, Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast.
55:30: It’s Day of the Doctor that Kiyan is referring to here.
1:02:02 The P.R.O.B.E. videos are actually about Liz Shaw, they don’t even pretend it’s not, because of how rights worked. Also, if you know how/why P.R.O.B.E. stands for “Preternatural Research Bureau,” let us know, cause we’re stumped.
1:06:38 Seven Keys to Doomsday is an audio adaptation of a stage play.
1:07:50 The name of JB’s current Doctor Who podcast, if you weren’t aware, is Doctor Who Gives a F*ck.
1:09:13 The Timescales

Alternate title: Hell Yeah, Mark Strickson! We were less enthusiastic about old Mark after we learned he was maybe possibly theoretically hypothetically a redhead, but also not one at the same time. Got give it up to him though. He was pretty fantastic in this story. Or should I say phantastic, with a “ph?” Probably not because it’s not spelled with a “ph,” but what is spelled with a “ph” is Phantasmagoria, written by Mark Gatiss and released on October 4, 1999.

Show-notes:
1:00: I suppose the cover is kind of orangey.

What an honor and a thrill to have Andrew Smith with me on this episode! This is Episode 18 covering all things Season 18, my favorite all-time season. Andrew joins me for the Full Circle segment to talk all about his contribution to the show among other things. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did recording it!

BREAKING NEWS! Ncuti Gatwa is the new Doctor Who!! ... but this episode was recorded and edited before the announcement, so join me on Trap One later in the week for a deeper analysis.

Welcome to the 25th episode of Doctor Who Literature -- this week is the 49th anniversary of Target's first Doctor Who book releases, and now we're reading their 25th published novelization, "Doctor Who and the Space War", published in September 1976. My guest this week is Daniel Knight, and we discuss the history of TV production in the US, Star Trek, what makes the definitive Malcolm Hulke novelization, and what other Doctor Who podcasts might also be tackling "Frontier in Space" this week.

Daniel joins us for a game of "Guess That Cliffhanger". Can anything in the world stop him now?

In the second half, Jason does a close reading of the text. Is this an improvement on the TV story, or perhaps a slight diminution?

The episode features a brief musical cue from The Beastie Boys for Mothers' Day. No copyright infringement is intended.

As we were recording a forthcoming episode of The Sirens of Audio, the news came through that Ncuti Gatwa has been cast as the lead in the next iteration of Doctor Who.   

Here are our instant thoughts as the news broke.
