Latest Podcast Episodes

The Time Meddler is a seminal moment in Doctor Who history. No Doctor Who podcast can be complete without acknowledging it, and no podcast about Doctor Who Literature can be complete without discussing its novelization.

Frazer Gregory, one of my most frequent and popular guests, rejoins me for the first time since Episode 100. We have a lot to say about this story, including a discussion of its geography -- where in Northumbria does it take place, and on what precise day does it take place? Frazer has a theory, and it involves, perhaps, the very week that we're talking to you.

There are also games to be played, not just the one that I have for Frazer, but the one that he has for me ...

About a year ago we looked at our top overrated DOCTOR WHO stories. It caused quite a stir with some of you! Today's episode is the flipside of the same coin where we look at the opposite. What have been the most underrated stories in Doctor Who's long and storied history? Come at us!

We’re back for the first episode of Peter Capaldi’s final year — a simple, well-told tale of Girl Meets Girl, Girl Becomes Puddle, Girl Loses Girl and, finally, Girl Goes off with Her Tutor on a Series of Adventures in Time and Space. Welcome aboard, Bill Potts. It’s The Pilot.

Notes and links

Friend from the Future was a promotional short designed to introduce Bill Potts first broadcast during Match of the Day on 23 April 2016, nearly a year before this episode aired. You can see the entire short here.

Peter mentions the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode Skin of Evil as another TV episode containing a high-concept puddle. It’s famously not very good, as Joe and Nathan discovered in this episode of Untitled Star Trek Project.

You’ll be relieved and probably unsurprised to learn that Nathan is wrong: John Peel doesn’t claim that Genesis of the Daleks took place in 1831. However, TARDIS Wikia dates it as set in the 15th or 16th centuries, probably because in The Daleks, one of the Daleks claims that there were two races on Skaro 500 years ago. But the whole idea is absolutely enervating, don’t you think?

The squishy thing Todd mentions as a possible companion for the Doctor is, of course, Mr Huffle from The Return of Doctor Mysterio. The Doctor does apparently take it with him at the end of the story.

And Pearl Mackie married her wife Kam Chhokar on 4 May this year. Here’s a wedding photo from Tumblr.

Douglas is Cancelled is Steven Moffat’s most recent TV show — a four-part miniseries starring Hugh Bonneville, Karen Gillan and Alex Kingston, about a middle-aged male TV personality who is overheard making a sexist joke at a friend’s wedding. Worth a look.

Follow us

Nathan is on Bluesky at @nathanbottomley.bsky.social and James is at @ohjamessellwood.bsky.social; Todd is on X as @toddbeilby. The Flight Through Entirety theme was arranged by Cameron Lam.

You can follow Flight Through Entirety on Mastodon and Bluesky, as well as on X and Facebook. Our website is at flightthroughentirety.com. Please consider rating or reviewing us on Apple Podcasts, or we’ll invent a massively high-concept backstory for you which prevents you from ever truly realising yourself as a person.

And more

You can find links to all of the podcasts we’re involved in on our podcasts page. But here’s a summary of where we’re up to right now.

500 Year Diary is our latest new Doctor Who podcast, going back through the history of the show and examining new themes and ideas. It’s first season came out early this year, under the title New Beginnings. Check it out. It will be back for a second season early in 2025.

The Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire has broadcast our hot takes on every new episode of Doctor Who since November last year, and it will be back again in 2025 for Season 2.

There’s also Startling Barbara Bain, our Space: 1999 commentary podcast. We’ve covered the first six episodes of Series 1; Episode 7 should be out some times in the next couple of weeks.

The Blakes 7 podcast Maximum Power has been on hiatus for a while, but arrangements for the recording of Series D are well underway, and we will definitely have some new episodes for your before the end of the year.

And finally there’s our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. Last week, they took a trip with Kirk, Spock and McCoy to the Planet of Space Ancient Rome in Bread and Circuses.

We focus this time on the Big Finish adaptation of The Prisoner.

Number 6 actor Mark Elstob joins us to talk about his career, Patrick McGoohan Doctor Who, Blake's 7 (specifically, Paul Darrow's Avon), and of course, The Prisoner.

Theme music by Joe Kraemer and Jamie Robertson.

  Manchester, 1993. The Time Lady Ruath, an old friend of the Doctor's, arrives on the planet to inform Earth's vampires that the arrival of their legendary messiah is imminent. His rising will herald an age of endless night where the undead reign supreme. All that is needed is the blood of a Time Lord. In Tasmania, the Doctor, Tegan, and Nyssa are enjoying the sun and plenty of cricket. When they are attacked by vampires, they escape unscathed, except for Nyssa who suffers two small puncture wounds to her neck. Compelled by her attacker to remain silent, she can tell no-one what she's turning into. Why is Ruath so determined to see the descendants of the Great Vampire rise to power? If only the Doctor knew the truth, she's certain he would turn to her side, and help to secure the future of Vampire kind, no matter how much humanity must suffer. Based on the 1994 Missing Adventures novel by Paul Cornell.

We continue with our Ian Marter discussion with a brief conversation about the debut of Harry Sullivan in "Robot"! But, before we get underway, we pick up where we left off with new details about Marter's time at St. Edmund Hall at Oxford University with the discovery that there is a recording on vinyl of Marter singing in You Can't Do Much Without a Screwdriver, an original musical staged by the Oxford University Experimental Theatre Club at the Oxford Playhouse in May 1965. Marter played the lead character, Guy Ffolkes, an Amnesian nationalist, and sings "Bang On" with Jack and Harry, described as two villains in the playbill. There's a photograph of Ian with Adèle Geras née Weston on stage during the production. We also uncovered a photograph of young Ian with fellow Oxford students, Tamara Ustinov, John Dodgson, Anne Bibby, and Nick Elliott rehearsing for another play. Plus a photograph of Marter with actor Richard Burton in a local pub. Opening and closing music is "Mysterious Robots," composed by Dudley Simpson. We recorded this episode on 26 August 2024.

He wouldn't have gotten away with it, too! If it wasn't for those meddling kids and their crotchety old Time Lord! Yes, this week we watched The Sensorites! Honestly, a pretty good six-parter that wasn't exactly fast-paced and full of action, but also didn't really have pacing problems either. What it did have was one really crazy Sensorite who did not want humans (or their Time Lord) anywhere near their planet and he did some pretty Scooby villain stuff to stop them. Well, try and stop them at least. Anyway! Grab some Scooby Snacks and let's dive in!

It's taken us a few years, but here's Something Who podcast bringing up the ton - yes, it's our landmark 100th episode!

Grab a nice hot bevvy and start your day the Stace & Barry way!

Welcome to Part One of our intermittent ongoing look at The Trial of a Time Lord, a single 14-part Doctor Who serial that comprised the whole of Season 23, televised between September and December 1986, but broken up into four separate novelizations. Confusingly released out of order and non-consecutively.

Jim Sangster, Doctor Who Literature's multi-talented co-producer, logo designer, and in-house band, adapted and performed this week's introductory number, appeared as a talking head on the Trial of a Time Lord DVDs (recorded 16 years prior to the production of this episode), and is this week's guest. We'll about about Liverpool and its many connections to Doctor Who, and speculate just when does Trial take place relevant to the Sixth Doctor's own timeline?

The Shadows of Avalon caused a lot of excitement when it was first announced.

Not only did it mark the return of Paul Cornell to writing Doctor Who, after his triumphant New and Missing Adventures work, but it brought back the Brigadier, and introduced a new incarnation of Romana.

It also had an astonishing daring moment that really did seem audacious at the time.

We're joined by editor Steve Cole, as Kenny and Matt discuss the novel and its impact, with archival quotes from Paul Cornell.

Erika and Steven dispense with the saxophones and somehow end up talking about “The Space Pirates.” Again.

Waffle On about Weird Science

Another jump down the 1985 memory lane with this hit teen comedy from John Hughes. Its certainly of its time but wowzers it was a fun film to talk about. 

The lads first catch up on what they have seen at the cinema and on tv and then jump into this comedy. 

Meds and kell also tease about an event they may be involved in next year so stay tuned.
