A whole new level of useless!

I’d like to be a captain. I think it’d be pretty cool to be Captain Dylan or Captain Kiyan. Imagine if we were both captains, and then it would be Captain Dylan and Captain Kiyan discuss Torchwood. Now wouldn’t that be absolutely wild? And then someone could steal our name and… It’s Captain Jack Harkness, written by Catherine Tregenna and aired on December 31, 2006.

Autumn has arrived, the nights are drawing in and naturally our thoughts return once more to Doctor Who. At the same time, it's the end of the cricket season and the start of football and this time we're looking at Doctor Who's two great sporting encounters, starting with 5th Doctor's cricketing exploits in Black Orchid, followed by the 11th Doctor's footballing feats in The Lodger. And who better to help us with that than Huw Turbervill. Huw is a sports journalist and the Managing Editor of The Cricketer Magazine, as well as an occasional visitor to Gallifrey Base's Missing Episodes Megathread, where we met him. And so we've turned our podcast for one episode only into Something Huw, including a pastiche on Black Orchid, analyses of all of the Doctor's encounters with both games and Huw's encounters with some of our heroes in his journalistic career. Please like or share our podcast with people who will enjoy it, so we can build our listener base high for happiness. You can rate us directly on Apple Podcasts or Podchaser.com The opening music is Three Guitars Mood 2 and, yes, that is Richard playing the ukulele and kazoo on possibly the worst ever version of the Doctor Who theme tune at the end.

It is with a heavy heart we relay the news that Gallifrey 2021 has been postponed due to the ongoing awfulness that is the world, more specifically the COVID-19 pandemic. It’s merely a pleasure deferred however, as all memberships are being shifted to Gallifrey 2022 when hopefully the world is a better and healthier place. We also have news of a Jodie and Mandip (psst, Thasmin confirmed) panel at virtual NYCC, a new Daleks animated program to tie in with Time Lord Victorious, and more! And to top it off, a deep dive into Doctor Who missing episodes with Tim and Paul from Doctor Who – The Missing Episodes Podcast!

Creative disarray, an abundance of tea, and a ball bag are but some of the treats on offer in this legendary unfinished serial

Ben and Mark are joined by rival Scottish Doctor Who podcast The Polis Box to discuss 'The Zygon Invasion/Inversion'. Will the Lash Lads put aside their differences with Lee, Dave and Cameron as they sit down and talk? Well, yes, quite easily actually.Under discussion: The slightly queasy messaging of integration, the T word, whether or not the Zygons are more than just a one-shot villain, repeated public alien incursions, the dubious Doctor Disco, 'heeling it up' and some snark about spin-off media.Also: A Fatal Five Way Degsey's Where Did it Come? Game and a skip full of pubes.

There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, where the sea’s asleep, and the rivers dream. People made of smoke, and cities made of song. Somewhere there’s danger, somewhere there’s injustice, and somewhere else the tea’s getting cold. Come on, Ace, we’ve got work to do!

This week, all four of us assemble on Horsenden Hill to light a fire, muck about, and discuss the last story of the 26-year run of the Classic Series. It’s Survival.

Buy the story!

Survival was released on DVD in 2007. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Notes and links

Fans of the music of Dominic Glynn will also enjoy FTE’s multi-award winning radio drama Time Inc.

The Planet of the Cheetah People (Cheetos in the constellation of Acinonyx) operates like a single biological entity. The Gaia Hypothesis postulates that the Earth operates in the same way.

Horrifyingly, Adele Silva is now 37 years old, and is famous for playing Kelly Windsor on Emmerdale. She’s a mum now.

Picks of the week

Nathan

For the second time, Nathan’s pick is the New to Who podcast, which covers those Doctor Who stories which you might actually want to watch, particularly if you’re a fan of the New Series.

Brendan

Dominic Glynn has recently released an EP called The Happiness Patrol Remixes, with new versions of the superb incidental music he composed for that story

Todd

Fans of both unnecessarily long films and TV’s Sylvester McCoy will want to rush out and buy the Blu-ray box set of The Hobbit Motion Picture Trilogy. (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Richard

Richard has been enjoying the Titan Comics Doctor Who range, particularly those starring the Ninth Doctor and the Twelfth Doctor.

He also recommends listening to Sam Waxman‘s film noir scores, just to see how this sort of thing can be done really well.

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, and the logo was designed by Anthony Wells. You can follow the podcast on Twitter at @FTEpodcast. And more surprising and completely reliable information about the show can be found at @FTEwhofacts.

We’re also on Facebook, and you can check out our website at flightthroughentirety.com. Please consider rating or reviewing us on iTunes, or we’ll secretly cancel your favourite TV show so that you don’t realise for a couple of years that it’s over forever and is never ever coming back.

Bondfinger

Over on Bondfinger, we’ve resumed our long-delayed flight through the Pierce Brosnan Era, which is nice, with the release of our latest commentary on The World Is Not Enough.

Our commentaries on the first two Pierce Brosnan films are still available, and so are our commentaries on the Timothy Dalton films.

We also have plenty of Rodgecasts online, and there are other Bonds available, as well. Even fake ones.

You can keep up with all the Bondfinger news on Twitter and Facebook.

The First Doctor, Barbara, Ian, and Vicki have found themselves in a museum, or rather they have found a future version of themselves on display in a museum. This presents a real problem when they finally catch up with themselves. Luckily there are a convenient group of rebels just waiting around for someone to take charge.

Links of note:

• New TARDIS team announced
• Ace, Romana and Leela all may meet the Time War Master
• Big Finish brings back the Doctor’s daughter for her own series
• Clive Swift’s horrendously bad interview in Doctor Who Magazine ‘resurfaces’
