Following up our discussion of Lords of the Storm, we read its sequel Shakedown by Terrance Dicks. Shakedown was originally conceived as a short fan film featuring the Sontarans, a solar sailing crew, and one very evil Rutan. Dicks eventually adapted it into this Virgin New Adventure, but faced the challenge of working with a Doctor Who-inspired script which actually doesn't feature the Doctor at all. The result is a three-part novel with the original story sandwiched between two parts featuring the Doctor and his companions. From the back cover:

'The Sontarans can never defeat us. It is we who will win.'

For thousands of years the Sontaran clone-warriors and the Rustan gestalt have fought each other across the galaxy. Now the Sontarans have a plan to strike at the heart of the Rutan Empire, and utterly defeat the Rutan race.

The Doctor has his suspicions, but only one Rutan spy knows the Sontarans' secret. He is being pursued from planet to planet by Cwej and Forrester and by a Sontaran hit squad. After a confrontation about the racing space-yacht Tiger Moth, the chase culimates on the library planet Sentarion - where Professor Bernice Summerfield's researches into the history of the Sontaran/Rutan war turn into explosive reality.

Although Terrance Dicks is known primarily as the show's script editor and author of the Target novelizations, he has written a handful of novels for the different ranges, including The Eight Doctors and World Game, both of which we have discussed on earlier episodes.

So sit back and relax with a glass of rekkar (with a beer chaser) and listen in as we talk about Shakedown.

It's that time of year where Phil and Paul get Tony back on the podcast in a sweltering July day for an audio commentary and this time it's The Stones of Blood episodes 1 and 2. And because it was so damn hot, they chose to not do any news this week and just crack on with proceedings. So queue lots of facts from the day of original episode broadcast, Tony gives an insight into Tom Bakers treatment of the working classes and this commentary also features lots of talk about sex toys.

With San Diego Comic-Con mere days away, the mystery, hinting, and oblique teasing is reaching a fever pitch, with not only the main players on Doctor Who's creative team storming Hall H on Thursday, July 9, but also a Titan Comics panel to whet your fannish interest, along with toys, exclusives and all manner of madness for the Three Who Rule to weigh in on. Next week we'll have friend of the show and rakish flaneur Kyle Anderson calling in from SDCC to give us all the news on Series 9 and the all important State of Capaldi's Bouffant, but for now, enjoy an interview with comedian, Doctor Who enthusiast and fine fellow Toby Hadoke about his new BBC radio play, "The Dad Who Fell To Earth"!

It’s like a free pass, but not really because it kind of doesn’t exist.

This week Kiyan and Dylan approach the end of the Third Doctor’s era, and for some reason he decides (somewhat poorly) to revisit Peladon. It’s not a very good serial, as you will find out soon enough. On the bright side, there’s lots of Alpha Centuri and Ice Warrior voice imitations from both Kiyan and Dylan! The name of this week’s serial is The Monster of Peladon, and it was written by Brian Hayles and it aired in March and April of 1974.

Here is the history of printing wikipedia page. Apparently inkjet and dot matrix printers both existed by 1974.

In which we destroy any goodwill we had with this episode title. Hiiiiiieeeeeeee! (waves)

On this week's episode, Danica and Brandon talk about Mila Kunis and space bees, we think. It's a bit blurry. And a lot slurry. Also: Ray Romano impressions, THE MASTER, and uh... oh. Yes. We watched "The Sound of Drums" and "Last of the Timelords", and Brandon didn't fall asleep this time. YOU ONLY HAD ONE JOB, BRANDON.

Outro music is "Voodoo Child" by Rogue Traders

This week, Flight Through Entirety is on location in Dartmoor, testing our resistance to fear, burning, pressure, fluid deprivation and immersion in liquids, as we discuss the third story of Tom Baker's first season, The Sontaran Experiment.

Buy the story!

The Sontaran Experiment was released on DVD in 2006/2007. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Links and notes

Fans of posh white people living in orbital space stations will enjoy The Ark in Space, of course, and also Elysium (2013), which makes reasonably good use of Jodie Foster, whatever Brendan says.

Fans of dead teenagers will enjoy The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974).

Dr Josef Mengele worked as an SS Officer in Auschwitz and performed brutal and sadistic experiments on some of the prisoners, as well as assigning many to the gas chambers.

Fans of the Sontaran insectoid robot will enjoy this photograph of the Canada Water Library in Southwark, which looks remarkably like it.

Earlier this year I was lucky enough to witness one of the more interesting and entertaining appearances by Tom Baker at a convention in recent years, the event was Folkestone Film, TV and Comic Con on 9th May 2015, he came across as slightly less eccentric but more open and honest. So here it is almost in full for your enjoyment too.

Howdy listeners. We’re baking inside the Tardis this week as the heatwave continues! News out the way then onto our review of Timelash.

The News

Big Finish really are going for it this year. We’ve already had some good announcements such as the extended Doctor Who licence until 2020 and UNIT stories coming later this year but they’ve gone one further and have announced River Song is coming! Yes sweetie, River will feature in her own story, The Diary of River Song as well as joining up with 8th Doctor Paul McGann which is REALLY exciting! The last quarter of 2015 is going to be amazing if you’re into Big Finish.

Sad news if you’re still waiting to pick up The Underwater Menace on DVD. While it’s been coming for a long while now and even after receiving updates of potential release dates, the BBC have abandoned plans to release it as the company providing the animation has hit financial problems. We may see this released on another media int he future but as for a DVD release it looks unlikely for now. Bummer.

The Official Doctor Who Festival is heading down under. It only feels like yesterday that the BBC announced the Festival in London this November and now, pretty much straight after, it’s heading to Sydney Australia. 21st to the 22nd November in Moore Park, Sydney, will see Peter Capaldi and Steven Moffat take up special guest duties.

“Timelash” Review

We’re back with The 6th Doctor for Timelash. It can be a tough old time seeing the best in some of Colin Baker’s stories so for this one, do we jump for joy or feel like it’s one never ending Kontron corridor?

This week’s trivia question

Last episode we asked you – The Sycorax had control of people with which blood type? The answer is A+.

This week’s question is – Which floor on Satellite 5 was Medical Nonemergency? Give us your answer in the comments below or post it on Twitter or Facebook. Good luck!

Thank you for flying the Tardis with us once again and it’s been great going through some cool news stories plus that tricky old time of Colin Baker’s Timelash. Enjoy the sun and until next week – Allons-y!

Tom and Louis have put a stop to their random wanderings. Invigorated by a new sense of directional purpose, and harangued by an artificially intelligent piece of junk mail, they journey to the Psychic Circus to discuss the Sylvester McCoy classic, The Greatest Show in the Galaxy. Topics of discussion include evil kites, fruit vending best practices, and just how psychic that circus really is, anyway.

If you were a classic fan who was on Team Cyberman rather than Team Dalek, this episode was long overdue. But was "Rise of the Cybermen" a proper re-introduction of the classic villains? Or were there too many stompy missteps out of the gate?

Join us next week for our review of Doctor Who story #60, Day of the Daleks! We were unable to find a legal way to stream this serial, but you can rent the DVD from Netflix, or buy the DVD from Amazon, the WB Shop or many other fine retailers.

On the twenty-fifth edition of Reality Bomb we have a special live episode recorded in New York at the Stone Creek Bar and Lounge in Manhattan. Graeme Burk interviews NPR Books editor Petra Mayer about the tenth anniversary of the tenth Doctor, while Sage Young and Kim Rogers from Head Over Feels battle each other in our trivia contest about the David Tennant era and comic book artist Simon Fraser (Titan's eleventh Doctor comic) brings Fear Her to the Gallery of the Underrated. Plus a song by Cat Smith, some live comedy, an opening musical number and Alex Kennard and Robert Smith? in the debating duel of year! It's the Doctor Who podcast you love, only live...in New York!
