Latest Podcast Episodes

In this week’s podcast we finally get around to reviewing the story that much of fandom has panned and constantly finds its way at the bottom of “best of” lists.

However, we decided to give a fair chance to the Sixth Doctor and Peri story, The Twin Dilemma.

Find out whether we judge the story as harshly as the populace, or if we come down on the side of favor.

Plus, a look at another of the 50th anniversary e-book releases, Something Borrowed, also featuring The Sixth Doctor and Peri and the return of a favorite villain.

Also, a few news items to get out of the way.

And of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!

The Five(ish) Fangirls Podcast

Welcome to the podiverse, ladies!

Random chance brings Tom and Louis to Doctor Who's tenth anniversary extravaganza, The Three Doctors. The origins of the Doctor's contempt for Twitter are explained, and we manage to hold things together through the force of our own will.

Wow it's been over a month since our last show! So we're back and we go over some casting news and upcoming releases but the bulk of the show is us discussing a recent study saying the Moffat's Who is more sexist then Davies Who.  Also, we want all of you to be aware that whether you agree that it is or disagree, we respect of all of your opinions and remember, we are just expressing our opinions as well.  Do we answer the question?  Nope, but then again, I'm not sure anyone can give a definitive answer that everyone can agree with.  Anyway thanks for listening and we appreciate every one of you out there!

-John, Nicole and Joanna

On the show this week, it's a return to Target books with a look the novelisation of The Ice Warriors by Brian Hayles.  As usual Phil and Phil make comparisions to the televised version of the story and while dissecting the differences, Phil admits to reading some of the book in the style of Wallace and Gromit while Paul just shakes his head in despair (which doesn't really work on audio).

And in a very slow news week, they bring you the news that The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot is getting a DVD release, Doctor Who guided tours recommencing in Cardiff and a discussion about recent articles suggesting that Doctor Who should take a break.  But all the while, the memory of Steven Moffats eyes still lingers which leads them to accuse the Moff of sleeping with the BBC.

We've talked about the TARDIS before. We've had discussions about the Chameleon Circuit and temporal physics. This week, we're discovering a whole bunch (but by no means all) of the little used funtions of the TARDIS. Little things that the Doctor may have mentioned or used only once, things that writers or showrunners came up with at the last moment when they realised they had painted our intrepid crew into the perverbial corner.

And stuff...

WARNING: Contains rabbit chasing

The randomizer, it has been noted, can be a harsh mistress. Bear that in mind when you cast an ear to our commentary to "Frontios", the somewhat maligned but still intriguing apocalyptic Fifth Doctor tale of hunger, strife, fascism and....giant snails. And if slimy Tractators aren't your thing, tune in for news, debunking of missing episode non-rumours, and as always, talk of LEGO!

The Untempered Schism are returning to the sadly short run of the Ninth Doctor as he, Rose and Jack take a side trip to Cardiff (along with Mickey). And while they do get a bit of a vacation, things turn hot when it turns out the Mayor is wearing a familiar face (easy to do when the face is part of a skin suit).

At the Hay Festival, showrunner Steven Moffat promised that the new season of Doctor Who will be radically different. Does casting Peter Capaldi alone make that true?

Warm up your vocal chords everyone! This isn't an ordinary episode of The Oncoming Storm. That's right, episode 107 is the musical episode! Well, it would have been, if Ashley and Rachel had let Josh have his way! But alas, gentle listener, you will just have to be content with the soothing sounds of Colin Baker singing, in Doctor Who and the Pirates, or The Lass Who Lost a Sailor, by Jacqueline Rayner. What's that? You don't like musicals? Well tough, because this is one story that is worth it! Stick around for the best little comedy-drama-musical with heart you've heard in ages! We dare you to not be humming along to "I Am the Very Model of a Gallifreyan Buccaneer" by the end of it! The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got a pirate... with 2 Peg Legs! Of course he does! It's in the story!

Join us next week for our reviews of Doctor Who serials #18, Galaxy 4, and #19, Mission to the Unknown!  We invite you to follow along by watching the serials before the podcast.  Three of the four parts of Galaxy 4 are lost, so there has been no full-length DVD release.  A condensed reconstruction is available on the Aztecs Special Edition DVD, and the official soundtrack is available from Audible.com.  Mission to the Unknown is also lost, but the soundtrack is included with the soundtrack of The Daleks' Master Plan, also available from Audible.com.
