Episode 118: Murder is Definitely OK When it's Leela
Trust Your DoctorJust to clarify, we don’t condone murder.
This week our greatest villain returns: difficult to pronounce names! Just kidding, it’s the Master. The serial at hand is The Keeper of Traken, written by Johnny Bryne and aired in January and February of 1981.
Show-Notes
2:11 Ki-Adi-Mundi was a member of the Jedi High Council. He was a Cerean, a species whose members have two brains.
9:45 In 1974 Gerald Ford pardoned Richard Nixon of any crimes he may have committed. You can read the full proclamation here.
12:36 Terrible. Just terrible.
26:00 The seagull that landed on the chimney when Pope Francis was elected was apparently symbolic. Also, the old pope, Pope Benedict XVI, didn’t die. He resigned.
26:24 Meanwhile, Bernie Sanders thinks “there may be some symbolism” regarding the bird that landed on his podium last month.
26:36 I was probably thinking of Duck for President, a children’s book about, surprisingly enough, a duck running for president.
27:06 Article 1, section 8 (a.k.a. the necessary and proper clause) of the U.S. constitution and the 10th amendment act in opposition to each other. Article 1, section 8 gives the federal government the “power… to make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution… all other powers vested by this constitution in the government of the United States,” while the 10th amendment explicitly relegates to the state governments all powers not specifically given to the federal government in the constitution. If you can’t wrap your head around this, well… you’re not alone.
37:09 Spaceship Earth is a spherical building at Epcot in Disney World. The original concept for Epcot was developed by Walt himself, who, as we now know, got the idea from Adric and Nyssa.

Why Is E-Space Green?
Flight Through Entirety: A Doctor Who PodcastOur flight through the vast green void of the E-Space Trilogy continues, as we land on an unnamed planet inhabited only by playing-card monarchs, unconvincing plastic bats and press-on BBC beards. But we still have a pretty good time. Welcome to State of Decay.
Buy the story!
State of Decay was released on DVD in 2009. Unlike last week’s Full Circle, I can’t find it on sale by itself on Amazon in the US, but it’s available as part of the E-Space Trilogy box set from either of the Amazons. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)
Notes and links
As is now well known, State of Decay started life as the Season 15 opener The Vampire Mutations, which was nixed by the BBC so that it wouldn’t steal the thunder from BBC’s own version of Dracula scheduled for broadcast that same year. The Wikipedia article on this lavish production links to several fairly positive reviews, despite Nathan’s tiresome and predictable insistence that it would have been simply terrible.
Terrance Dicks will revisit this unnamed planet in his Virgin New Adventures book Blood Harvest, published in July 1994, which is before some of you young people were even born, for God’s sake.
Follow us!
Brendan is on Twitter as @brandybongos, Nathan is @nathanbottomley, Todd is @toddbeilby, and Richard is @RichardLStone. The Flight Through Entirety theme was arranged by Cameron Lam. You can follow the podcast on Twitter at @FTEpodcast.
We’re also on Facebook, and you can check out our website at flightthroughentirety.com. Please consider rating or reviewing us on iTunes, or Nathan will come round to your house to explain the etymology of the word technocotheca at intolerably tedious length.
Doctor Who in 10 Seconds
These days, the Flight Through Entirety team can usually keep going on about a Doctor Who story for upwards of 40 minutes. But what if we only had 10 seconds?
In the latest (well, only) video project from Flight Through Entirety (well, just Brendan, really), Brendan summarises Doctor Who season by season, spending no more than 10 seconds on each story. Season 1 is up already; by the time you see these shownotes, Season 2 will probably be up too. You can see Brendan’s fabulous work here.
Bondfinger
Next week, we hope, we’ll be releasing our commentary podcast on Roger Moore’s Bond début, Live and Let Die, so you’ve got about a week to enjoy it one last time before we ruin it for you forever, probably. Our most recent commentary is on Diamonds Are Forever (1971). You can find our other commentaries on our website, and you can keep up with the Bondfinger news on Twitter and Facebook.

Doctor Who in 10 Seconds
These days, the Flight Through Entirety team can usually keep going on about a Doctor Who story for upwards of 40 minutes. But what if we only had 10 seconds?
In the latest (well, only) video project from Flight Through Entirety (well, just Brendan, really), Brendan summarises Doctor Who season by season, spending no more than 10 seconds on each story. Season 1 is up already; by the time you see these shownotes, Season 2 will probably be up too. You can see Brendan’s fabulous work here.
Bondfinger
Next week, we hope, we’ll be releasing our commentary podcast on Roger Moore’s Bond début, Live and Let Die, so you’ve got about a week to enjoy it one last time before we ruin it for you forever, probably. Our most recent commentary is on Diamonds Are Forever (1971). You can find our other commentaries on our website, and you can keep up with the Bondfinger news on Twitter and Facebook.

Big Blue Box Podcast - Episode 87
The Doctor Who Big Blue Box PodcastHey Whovians, Who fans and Who-sters. It’s a pretty dark time for Doctor Who fans at the moment with no substantial news and only one merch item so it’s good news we know how to waffle for a while!
The News
Ahem.
Merch Corner
A new book titled The Scientific Secrets of Doctor Who will hit shops and online on July 7th. Looks interesting if the potential science of Who floats your boat.
Giveaway
We have a copy of the very fun book Wallowing In Our Own Weltschmerz to give away thanks to our friends at Miwk Publishing. To win send us your answer on Twitter, Facebook or email (hello[at]bigblueboxpodcast.co.uk) – What classic British pudding does the Doctor yell at Davros which is unlimited? Good luck!
“The Twin Dilemma” Review
Often regarded as one of the worst classic stories, is it that bad? We take a look at the 6th Doctor’s first outing from strangling companions to galactic slugs, all wrapped up in a brand new colourful outfit. Do we consider this story a work of genius or do we feel trapped, watching it in a slug-trail of cement?
Thank you Who fans for listening this week and your comments. On next week’s show we’re reviewing the 9th Doctor story The End of the World and we look forward to your views on that. Have a great week and until next time – Allons-y!

The Oncoming Storm Ep 172: War Doctor 2, The Settling, Something Inside
The Oncoming StormAs 2016 continues it's monstrous march to kill off as many icons as it can, The Oncoming Storm team huddles in its bunker, hoping to avoid drawing the attention of the specter of death to Doctor Who. Afraid to go outside, Josh, Ashley, and Jeff do the only thing they really know how to do, and that's listen to Big Finish! This month, the focus is on the awaited return of the War Doctor, with his second box set, Infernal Devices. Will this finally deliver the Time War story the boys have been waiting on? Once that is accomplished, then it's back to the monthly range to discuss Hex's adventures in history in The Settling by Simon Guerrier and the 8th's Doctor's monthly memory loss in Something Inside. One of these stories has the unfortunate luck to feature something called the 'brain worm' quite proximately. Can you guess which one? The Oncoming Storm... This time, we're got kinky shock collars, cuz only the best for the Doctor.
