DIDDLY DUM PODCAST 058 - Oh Daddy
Diddly Dum Podcast
This week’s visitor to the Diddly Dum Whoseum is Mark Cockram of the Blue Box Podcast and the Nerdology podcast. Mark becomes only the second guest to enter those hallowed portals for the third time.Mark brings along The Special Edition DVD of “Inferno” and we celebrate the world of Doctor Who DVD extras. Hayden presents his prized collection of Anniversary Postage Stamps signed by Tom Baker and we hear about the day he met the great man. Doc’s exhibit is the page of the Radio Times covering Saturday 26 February 1972. On that evening, episode one of The “Sea Devils” was broadcast, the first story Doc can remember. We use this as an excuse to look at how BBC1 Saturday evening scheduling has changed down the years. Can you recognise some of the 70s and 80s theme tunes Doc plays before the boys guess them?
Finally, never one to miss relating a jammy experience, Hayden tells us about the day Tamsin Grieg asked if she could join him at his coffee shop table.
We can also be found on the Doctor Who Podcast Alliance

SHOWNOTES
(00:01:05) Long time friend of the show and third time visitor to The Whoseum is The Human Palindrome himself, Mark Cockram, the second nicest man in podcasting – and even then he’s only narrowly pipped to the post by Doc. Mark is a regular (in the same way that Peter Jones was a “Just a Minute” regular) on The Blue Box Podcast and has his own Nerdology UK Podcast, famed for hosting the last ever appearance in this reality of the Classic Diddly Dum team.
(00:05:10) Hayden’s new project is Podcasters Royale, a podcast looking in turn at each 007 film together with guests. The podcast is hosted on the Diddly Dum iTunes account.
(00:58:10) A photo of Hayden approaching The Great Tom at The Stamp Centre can be found here on our Tumbler page.
(00:58:10) A photo of the stamps Tom signed for Hayden can be found here on our Tumbler page.
(01:11:25) Here is the Radio Time Genome page for BBC1 on 26 Feb 1972 – the broadcast of episode 1 of “The Sea Devils”.
(01:12:00) “Here Come the Double Deckers” was a 17-part British children’s TV series from 1970-71, revolving around the adventures of seven children whose den was an old red double-decker London bus in an unused junk yard.
(01:14:20) “Grandstand” was a British television sport programme. Broadcast between 1958 and 2007, it was one of the BBC’s longest running sports shows.
(01:16:24) “The Flashing Blade” (Le Chevalier Tempete) is a French television serial made in the late 1960s. It was first broadcast in the UK on BBC children’s television during the 1960s, with several re-runs throughout the 1970s.
(01:17:20) “The Generation Game” is a British game show produced by the BBC in which four teams of two people from the same family, but different generations, competed to win prizes. It was one of the strongest shows in the BBC’s Saturday night line-up, and became the number-one game show on British television during the 1970s, regularly gaining over 21 million viewers.
(01:20:40) “On The Move” was a television series made by the BBC and first broadcast in 1975 and 1976 in 50 ten-minute episodes. It was an educational programme aimed at adults with literacy problems, and linked to a national campaign at the time. It was credited with removing some of the stigma attached to illiteracy.
(01:24:45) “Multi-Coloured Swap Shop”, more commonly known simply as Swap Shop, was a British children’s entertainment programme that was broadcast every Saturday morning on BBC1 for 146 episodes in six series between 1976 and 1982. It was ground-breaking in many ways: by being live, sometimes up to three hours in length, and using the phone-in format extensively for the first time on TV.
(01:29:38) Here is the Radio Time Genome page for BBC1 on 21 Mar 1981 – the broadcast of episode 4 of “Logopolis”.
(01:29:49) “The Pink Panther Show” is a showcase of cartoon shorts produced between 1969 and 1979, starring the animated Pink Panther character from the opening credits of the live-action films.
(01:31:30) “Remington Steele” is an American television series co-created by Robert Butler and Michael Gleason. The series, starring Stephanie Zimbalist and Pierce Brosnan, was produced by MTM Enterprises and first broadcast on the NBC network from 1982 to 1987. The series blended the genres of romantic comedy, drama, and detective procedural. Remington Steele is best known for launching the career of Pierce Brosnan.
(01:32:00) Here is the Radio Time Genome page for BBC1 on 6 Dec 1986 – the broadcast of episode 14 of “The Trial of a Time Lord“.
(01:33:53) Here is the Radio Time Genome page for BBC1 on 6 Dec 1989 – the broadcast of episode 3 “Survival”.
(01:35:00) Here is the Radio Time Genome page for BBC1 on 7 May 1996 – the broadcast of the TV Movie.
(01:36:35) Here is the Radio Time Genome page for BBC1 on 26 Mar 2005 – the broadcast of “Rose”.
(01:38:18) Here is the Radio Time Genome page for BBC1 on 31 Mar 2007 – the broadcast of “Smith and Jones”.

A Day in the Gallifreyan Life
Gallifrey Public Radio - A Doctor Who PodcastAsk the average Earthling on the street to describe an advanced alien civilization, and they might very well picture a strange world of odd colors, outlandish architecture, barely recognizable life forms, and cultural behaviors that we may have little hope of comprehending. Ask a Whovian the same, and you'll likely touch on a number of those descriptors with some variance (perhaps a higher percentage of humanoid forms), but more or less in the same vein. Now, go a step further, and ask about the inhabitants of Gallifrey in particular -- on a planetary scale, not just our love-them-and-hate-them Time Lords, but the entire Gallifreyan species. All of a sudden, the areas of culture and society gets a little thin. Why is that? This week, using only the aspects of Gallifrey that were either shown or mentioned in the Doctor Who televised series (classic and new), we try to form a fuller understanding of the Doctor's home planet, and the people that occupy its cities and outlands. Knowing where we've left off at the conclusion of Series 9 and "Hell Bent", odds are good that we're not done learning more about Gallifreyan society, government, and populace. We also discuss the ramifications of learning those new things, and when the sum total may be too much to reveal. News Links: Dallas Convention Proves American Fans WIll Survive the Wilderness Year ...And Then P-Cap and Jenna Conquered Washington DC Not-Quite-Confirmation of Missy in Series 10? Series 10 to Start Principal Shooting Who Turned Down the Role of the Doctor? A Full size LEGO Tardis

Doctor Who: Verity!It's Eccleston time again! Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Lynne as we discuss a real workhorse of an episode, "The Long Game". Adam, the not-quite-companion fails, the Doctor and Rose aren't the most mature, and we play "we'll fix it for you" to help Lynne handwave something that bugs her. Then we talk about potato chips. No, really.

The Oncoming Storm Ep 206: The Stone Rose & Wave of Destruction
The Oncoming StormHey now, has it been a month already? Don't worry, we haven't given up on the show just yet! Josh, Ashley, Rachel, and Jeff are all back for episode 206 of The Oncoming Storm, and they have stories of cons, games, and wildfires from the month they were out. Once they catch up a month's worth of news, the team turns to the final audio picks of Jeff and Ashley. First up, Jeff picks a sentimental favorite, The Stone Rose by Jacqueline Rayner, as read by David Tennant. An audiobook featuring the 10th Doctor and Rose will surely bring the team together, right? After they recover from that, it's time for Ashley's random hat pick of Wave of Destruction by Justin Richards. Set in the infamous season 17 and featuring the 4th Doctor, Romana, and K-9, will Big Finish be able to capture some of that Douglas Adams magic? The Oncoming Storm... This time, we've got Vardans and talking monkey things! Yeah well, they can't all be winners in the evil monster category.

Doctor Who - Ep156: Take Care
The Doctor Who Big Blue Box Podcast
Hey Who fans. It's Ep156 and while news is in tumbleweed mode we do have a few merch items plus our review of Capaldi's The Caretaker.
The News
No news this week.
Merch Corner
The series 10 complete box set details released, another 2018 calendar and an awesome looking 1st Doctor Funko Pop! is on the way.
"The Caretaker" Review
This is the last Capaldi story pre-series 10 for us to review. It's funny and emotional but is this often viewed "middle of the road" story enough for us to move up from that 5 score?
Thank you Who fans for listening and your thoughts. Next week it's the 4th Doctor's turn with The Horns of Nimon so get that watched. Until then have a brill week and remember - Allons-y!
