Latest Podcast Episodes

Richard makes a triumphant return to the podcast just in time for the start of the Sylvester McCoy era. And the Rani's back too, cosplaying as Brendan for some reason. It's Time and the Rani.

So free will is not an illusion after all

Every time we turn around it's election season, and here at Flight Through Entirety, things are no different. This time we want you to vote for a Peter Davison story for our upcoming commentary podcast, scheduled for release after we finish Season 25.

Buy the story!

Time and the Rani was released on DVD in 2010/20111. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Notes and links

Philip Sandifer has posted a video blog in which he explains why he thinks the visual style of this story is a vast improvement. Scroll to the bottom of his discussion of this story, or, better still, read the whole thing.

Fans of terrible dialogue and refreshingly simplistic plots will also enjoy Pip and Jane's episode of Space: 1999, which is called A Matter of Balance. (That's a link to the actual episode, by the way, so click carefully.)

The story of King Solomon's wisdom can be found in 1 Kings 3:16-28.

Mrs Malaprop was a hilarious comedy aunt from Sheridan's play The Rivals (1775), famous for continually choosing the wrong word; despite that, she was the very pineapple of politeness.

Brendan's quixotic quest to read every original Doctor Who novel is insightfully and entertainingly chronicled on his blog, The Doctor Who Reader.

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:

Me and Who: A tale of the Radio Times Special, cassettes and Paris by Miles Northcott
Douglas finds the target: The Kamikaze sketch from The Burkiss Way by Stephen Hatcher

With an intermission 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

“Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,

Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,

Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,

Let PC McGarry wear black cotton gloves.”

The Whoseum is in deepest mourning this week for the loss of that titan of our childhood, Brian Cant. Nevertheless, Series 10 continue apace and reviews of “Empress of Mars” and “The Eaters of Light” are called for.

Along the way, Allan relates the history of Half Man Half Biscuit, Doc reveals the shocking truth behind his academic record, Mark recalls a curious meeting in a Kentish pub, and we reveal the truth about “Zulu”.

Saddle up everyone because the Arrow of Time team is taking on the latest of Who with “The Eaters of Light.” And they’ll also talk about eating light, and how much of a drag it is. Also they discuss a FAN-tastic fan theory sent in by one of OUR fans, the FANbulous Conrad Fannington! No that’s not his actual last name, but it would be amazing if it was!

For your fan made video segment of WhoTube we have “Doctor Who: The Boys Are Back In Town” by Sllittle – https://youtu.be/DRDKFQlRvr8

This is Bags of Action. The podcast devoted to action movies, both old and new, but all of them are awesome! In this episode Steve and Pete are joined by a special guest, Andy Schmidt, to discuss a classic film of his choosing, Highlander from 1986. It's been a long time since they've all seen the film, so does it hold up today? Is there anything they'd change about it, and what's the difference between the US and the European versions?

"The Eaters of Light" Review

Death by Scotland! It's certainly a hostile place for our Tardis Team this week but what's with the music? Romans, Barbarians, scary monsters and crows. Some good ingredients but is it enough for a solid story or do we feel like it's a bit... cold?

Thank you for listening and sending us your reviews. Next week it's World Enough and Time which sounds intriguing so get your reviews in for that. Until then have a great week and remember - Allons-y!

In which the monster of the week is all the rave. Trust us, it will make sense later.

This week, Danica and Brandon are proud to have Kat from Verity! on the show to discuss what happened on "The Eaters of the Light". There's a whole lot involving noodle rave monsters and Romans and the Scottish and sexuality and bullshit with Missy. It's a bit bonkers, but a lot of fun, honestly.

Outro music is "All The Small Things" by Blink-182
