This week, Phil and Paul plunge into the depths of the murky waters of Target and come bobbing up to the surface with a look at the novelisation of The Sea Devils by Malcom Hulke. And in a surprising turn of events, our intrepid duo don't agree on this book. But which one thought it was a majestic blue whale of a book and which one thought it was a wet haddock? Tune in to find out!

And in the news, we say goodbye to Ken Dodd, Dorka Nieradzik and Peter Miles, Christopher Eccleston opens up and what happened between him and the BBC after he left Doctor Who and in a welcome return to Omega's Tat Corner, it's handbag tat!

Here's the audio podcast version of this awesome milestone.

The post B042 The 200th Episode Extravaganza appeared first on Who Back When | A Doctor Who Podcast.

Matt Smith's leaving Doctor Who, and Mutter's Spiral Podcast is awash in speculation, wishcasting and left-field scenarios for the Fall of the Eleventh and the subsequent regeneration into the TWELFTH. Will has several out-of-the-box ideas, starting with JENNA4DOCTOR12 - Jenna Coleman becomes the 12th Doctor. He continues with 2 variations of a TENNANT SCENARIO that would lead to the return of David Tennant to the TARDIS.

John then leads us through the various contenders mentioned in the press, and he very cogently and smartly sums up what is needed in the next Doctor. After he details the names everyone's saying, he then comes through with two GREAT "out there" ideas, including one so diabolical that it's worthy of Steven Moffat himself.

You'll have to listen all the way through to hear them - in all, it's an hour of Doctor Who chat and speculation. Take a listen and also - tell us what YOU think! Who's your choice for the next Doctor?

January 27, 2018 saw a lot of firsts... it was the first time Rob met Dave in person; the first time the guys recorded an episode of their show in person; the first time Rob had ever recorded a podcast with ANYONE else in the room; the first time they recorded with the guys from the New to Who podcast (see our February 25 episode); the first time Rob had met any of the Flight Through Entirety podcast team... and so on. You get the idea.

Anyway, at some stage on that very busy day, amid recording an episode of the Doctor Who Show and an episode of New to Who, Rob and Dave found time to crack out a single microphone, mount it on a table, and have a conversation about Doctor Who fandom in Australia. Basically how they came into it; what it was like; conventions, and more. They end up moving through the topic and even onto talking about the modern era of fandom that they now no longer feel a major part of, but are extremely supportive of.

Very personal... a little indulgent... and the sound quality isn't quite where the Doctor Who Show normally pitches, but if you're at all interested in our back stories, or Doctor Who fandom in Australia in the 80s and 90s in particular, this could be a very interesting episode for you to hear.

Along the way, we take a well-earned cup of tea until rain forces us indoors,we look at boys’ comics of yesteryear, and we find out what Doc as a boy wanted to be when he grew up.
