Welcome to the seventh episode of the podcast we’re dropping on the feed every month in between our regular monthly shows.

These are short (20 minute-ish) shows where Rob sits down with a guest and reads letters – the primary sources of the title – about Doctor Who from the 80s and 90s, for the purpose of kick-starting a conversation. Vitally, the guest doesn’t know anything about the content of the letters until the recording.

In this episode, Rob talks to co-host of the most excellent Sirens of Audio podcast, Dwayne Bunney!

This is Doctor Who without a safety net. The conversations could go anywhere the guest wants them to go.

This is Primary Sources.

As the global pandemic abates (everywhere but Canada, currently in the throes of The Swarm 3.0) Doctor Who news is…somewhat sedate. But we do have news of a Canadian release date for the Season 24 Blu-ray, Dalek auctions, a Devil’s End comic book Kickstarter, and copious praise for the student-produced Mission to the Unknown from 2019! And as if that wasn’t enough to overload your sensorium, our Torchwood Revisited commentaries continue with “Ghost Machine”!

The post N133 Smile appeared first on Who Back When | A Doctor Who Podcast.

Another Celebrity Historical! This time -- Shaolin Monks, Queen Victoria and a Werewolf! It's a romp in the Highlands, and the stuff Whovian dreams are made of. The Doctor name drops a former companion, the very companion snogged by the actor to whom the Doctor drops the name! And if that makes sense (or even if it doesn't) this is the podcast for you!

We’re not experienced M&Mologists, but we at least know that much.

I have a blood line, did you know that? It runs right through my arm. Look you can even see it sometimes, it’s blue and if you poke it this red liquid comes out. I only call it a blood line because that’s what everybody else calls it. I never really learned what it was in hindsight, so I’m glad Doctor Who and Torchwood are here to tell me. It’s The Blood Line, written by Russel T. Davies and Jane Espensen and aired on September 9, 2011.

Show-notes:
2:13: Here’s Rex Matheson: List of Appearances for everyone who actually cares.
4:49: Our first episode on Lexx will go out this coming week, over at Inevitable: A Classic Sci-Fi Podcast.
7:12: Wow I can’t believe I actually found the Doctor Who Fanon wiki again.
12:10: The only wiki you ever need is the TARDIS wiki. Like here’s what they have to say about Mandarin. And here’s what they have to say about Chinese Dialects.
18:00: Christopher Eccleston really did say that we should just “blow up canon” and I 100% agree with him.
35:00: Barbara really did kill 4 Morphos in cold blood in the Keys of Marinus
39:49: Believe it or not, the plot of Robocop 2 involves Omnicorp trying to bankrupt Detroit so that they can buy it and take over.
41:29: The M&M’s wiki has a page on the Green M&M. Today I learned there’s an M&M’s wiki.
46:28: Believe it or not I actually did find the book. It’s called “Torch, Wood & Peasants: Adventures in British Sci Fi“ and was written by Si Spencer under the pseudonym Webley Wildfoot.
58:52: Hell or High Water is an amazing movie and you should all go watch it even though I just spoiled it.
1:03:40: I think it’s just called a circle transition.
1:03:58: The dumbest controversies of 2021 was the one where people were upset that they redesigned Lola Bunny in Space Jam 2.
1:06:58: Yes, “king me” is from checkers.
1:16:22: Eminem was a celebrity on Earth. Chris de Burgh was a celebrity on Earth.
1:19:01: Yes they’re reviving iCarly, I know.
1:22:48: Here’s that list for you again: Keys of Marinus, Tomb of the Cybermen, The Daemons, Genesis of the Daleks, Enlightenment, Timelash, Survival

Our THE ZYGON INVERSION discussion episode! We've got plenty of theories regarding Clara's upcoming exit, and of course we have to analyze that amazing speech delivered by Peter Capaldi - what many are calling his first real "Doctor moment."

This Trap One Book club episode looks at Doctor Who and the Krikkit Men by James Goss. My co-host is Jason Miller (@drwhonovels) and features a guest reading by Erik Stadnik (@sjcAustenite).

Show notes here, and details about #WhoAgainstGuns here.

Brendan, Richard and Nathan are menaced, drugged and tied up, which means it's either a normal Saturday night or the rather spectacular Image of the Fendahl.

Buy the story!

Image of the Fendahl was released on DVD in 2009. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Notes and links

Ma Tyler is played by Daphne Heard, who was Peter Bowles's mother Mrs Polouvicka in 70s/80s sitcom To The Manor Born. Here's the first episode.

We've mentioned him before, but H. P. Lovecraft was a twentieth-century racist and horror writer, who popularised the idea that the world is hideously haunted by nightmarish creatures from beyond the dawn of time. His most famous short story is The Call of Cthulhu.

Fans of nightmarish creatures from beyond the dawn of time will enjoy Quatermass and the Pit, a BBC television programme from 1959 featuring, um, nightmarish creatures from beyond the dawn of time.

The Stone Tape was a 1972 television play by the author of Quatermass, about, you know, totally scary things. It's available on YouTube. You can also find a recent radio version, starring the lovely Jane Asher, here.

Sapphire and Steel was a crazily fascinating and boring ITV science fiction series from the 1970s and 80s, starring Joanna Lumley and David McCallum. And, of course, there's a Big Finish version of the series, but it can't be found anywhere on their website for rights reasons, probably.

Should we mock the 70s? Do let's. Here's a link to the website of Erich von Daniken, who believed that human culture was totally influenced by aliens.

And while we're mocking the 70s, you might enjoy Desmond Morris's The Naked Ape and Manwatching.

Survivors is a hilarious 1970s TV series, written by Terry Nation, in which a horrible plague wipes out everyone except Dennis Lill, his moustache, and a small number of other middle class people. But at least Patrick Troughton is in an episode.

The terribly handsome actor who plays Stael in this story also plays Carnell in the Blakes 7 episode Weapon. He goes on to reprise his role in a totally-not-Big-Finish series of audio dramas by Magic Bullet Productions.
