“Thin Ice” Review

Series 10 is going along nicely and we’ve really enjoyed the first two episodes so far so does Thin Ice give us 3 for 3 or do we feel left out in the cold.

Thank you as always listeners, we love your support through subscribing and sending in reviews. Enjoy Knock Knock on Saturday and until next time have a super week and remember – Allons-y!

This week Deb, Erika, Liz and Tansy revisit an oft maligned (by Deb) story -- "The Daleks' Master Plan". There are a few disagreements as to pace, plot, story, Katarina... and while may not all agree on which companion actually clocks in as the official 7th companion in Doctor Who history, we do all agree that Sara Kingdom is a BAMF.

How do you feel about this "epic" adventure? Is it a rambling mess? A beloved Doctor Who romp or BOTH? And what is your preferred method for consuming this phantom of a story? Leave us a comment or send us a tweet and let us know how you feel about Bret, Sara, The Meddling Monk or any one of the other 1,183 plot points in "The Daleks' Master Plan"?

Happy Things:

• Deb (and most of Doctor Who fandom) is excited about the new Series 12 Trailer -- new baddies, old baddies -- can't wait!
• Liz is particularly excited about the cosplay options the trailer inspired -- FORMAL WEAR!
• Erika is delighted Handwavium is covering one her favorite stories -- "The Sensorites"!
• Tansy is once again filled with admiration and glee at Big Finish's commitment to delving into the cracks of Doctor Who history -- particularly the new release Daughter of the Gods, which lets Katarina shine!

Okay folks. We're hours away from our local convention, Wholanta, and we don't have a lot of time. So lets's do this quickly. Yes, this is episode 198 of the Oncoming Storm. No Jeff isn't here, so you're stuck with Josh, Ashley, and Rachel. Yes, Josh is an idiot, and this is actually the 56th New Adventure, not the 57th. Yes, that means it's So Vile a Sin by Ben Aaronovitch and Kate Orman, the notorious "6 months late, sorry you had to find out about that big surprise in another book" book. No, we won't ruin the surprise here, just in case. And yes, Big Finish did release some big news the day after we recorded. The Oncoming Storm... this time, we've got 99 Doctors but Roz ain't one.

Waffle On about Ghostwatch

In 1992 the BBC showed a TV Horror Mockumentary, shown at 9pm on Halloween the show caused controversy and has never been broadcast on standard tv since. Meds and Kell attended a showing of this programme along with a Q&A with creator, writer Stephen Volk and director Lesley Manning at the Midland Arts Centre and thought it woud be a perfect waffle subject. The lads also talk about the movie Doctor Sleep.

As November 23, 2019 approached, the BBC started dropping a surprising amount of information about the forthcoming Series 12 of Doctor Who after a relative dearth of information for the entire year.

Then, on Doctor Who's 56th birthday, a trailer for the new series dropped. Unfortunately, we recorded this episode a few days before that (!) fully acknowledging that we'd miss the trailer that we knew was coming, however, Rob has subsequently blogged about it.

After discussion of what we know about Series 12 during our news segment, this episode then moves onto some short topics including what we're watching at present, then our main topic for the month (as revealed in our previous episode), Our Top 5 Nu-Who Moments.

How did we do? Did you like our picks?

And as always, we hope you like the episode...!

Doctor Who Show mailbag emails from: David Clarke, Peter Deadman, and David Young

Let us know your thoughts on Nu-Who or anything else you like at hello@theDWshow.net

A bit of a delay this week, but as they say, better late than never.

In this episode we take a look at The Twelfth Doctor and Bill’s third outing in the story Thin Ice. We’ll give you our reviews of this story.

Plus, we are fresh back from a weekend at this year’s Planet Comicon in Kansas City, MO. We share stories about the convention.

And, of course, your feedback.

Enjoy!
