All I want you to know is that this is #mythirteenthdoctor.

This week Kiyan and Dylan watch the final little expanded universe thing they’re watching before they get to the reboot. In sticking with completely invented and made up traditions they watched Stephen Moffat’s first contribution to the show. It’s the Curse of Fatal Death, aired on the 12th of March, 1999.

Remember the 1960s, when this podcast first began? We had such high ideals, and we enjoyed making people happy. Well, it's 2017 now, so welcome to our bitter, jaded and utterly mercenary take on The Greatest Show in the Galaxy.

The pebble drowning in his lake

Campaigning for our postal plebiscite has turned predictably nasty, but it's very important for everyone to have their say on this issue: which Colin Baker story should be the subject of our upcoming commentary podcast? Head over to the show notes for Episode 121 to cast your vote.

Buy the story!

The Greatest Show in the Galaxy was released on DVD in 2012. (That was easy.) (Amazon US) (Amazon UK)

Notes and links

Brendan's "surprise mirror" remark is totally incomprehensible unless you've seen this literal music video of Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart. Watch it now.

The first episode of Australian comedy series Outland featured a gay Doctor Who fan who briefly considered abandoning his date when he made a crack about Daleks being unable to climb the stairs.

In Richard Marsden's biography of John Nathan-Turner, it is revealed that JNT and his partner used to refer to hard-core fans as "barkers", and the attractive ones as "doable barkers".

Chris Chibnall will be taking the reins of Doctor Who any day now. Here he is on the BBC's Open Air programme in 1986, criticising The Trial of a Time Lord.

The Pakleds from the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode Samaritan Snare were intended to be a parody of Star Trek fans.

This sketch from A Bit of Fry and Laurie depicts Stephen Fry's reaction to increasing choice in the media landscape. Watch it all the way through -- there's a lovely surprise in there for fans of Doctor Who.

Richard identifies 7 Faces of Dr. Lao (1964) as one of the inspirations for this story. The eponymous Doctor is played by Tony Randall in some appalling yellowface. Check out the trailer here.

Picks of the week

Brendan

Take a deep breath. Brendan's first pick is Doctor Who on Holiday a remix by Dean Gray of The KLF's Doctorin' the TARDIS, featuring Green Day. It's good.

Brendan's "surprise mirror" remark is totally incomprehensible unless you've seen this literal music video of Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart. Watch it now.

The first episode of Australian comedy series Outland featured a gay Doctor Who fan who briefly considered abandoning his date when he made a crack about Daleks being unable to climb the stairs.

In Richard Marsden's biography of John Nathan-Turner, it is revealed that JNT and his partner used to refer to hard-core fans as "barkers", and the attractive ones as "doable barkers".

Chris Chibnall will be taking the reins of Doctor Who any day now. Here he is on the BBC's Open Air programme in 1986, criticising The Trial of a Time Lord.

The Pakleds from the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode Samaritan Snare were intended to be a parody of Star Trek fans.

This sketch from A Bit of Fry and Laurie depicts Stephen Fry's reaction to increasing choice in the media landscape. Watch it all the way through -- there's a lovely surprise in there for fans of Doctor Who.

Richard identifies 7 Faces of Dr. Lao (1964) as one of the inspirations for this story. The eponymous Doctor is played by Tony Randall in some appalling yellowface. Check out the trailer here.

Take a deep breath. Brendan's first pick is Doctor Who on Holiday a remix by Dean Gray of The KLF's Doctorin' the TARDIS, featuring Green Day. It's good.

This podcast will relate some of the stories from those books... and beyond.

In this episode:

The Impossible Squidginess of Being: The Impossible Planet by Gareth Kearns

Brendan’s “surprise mirror” remark is totally incomprehensible unless you’ve seen this literal music video of Bonnie Tyler’s Total Eclipse of the Heart. Watch it now.

The first episode of Australian comedy series Outland featured a gay Doctor Who fan who briefly considered abandoning his date when he made a crack about Daleks being unable to climb the stairs.

In Richard Marsden’s biography of John Nathan-Turner, it is revealed that JNT and his partner used to refer to hard-core fans as “barkers”, and the attractive ones as “doable barkers”.

Chris Chibnall will be taking the reins of Doctor Who any day now. Here he is on the BBC’s Open Air programme in 1986, criticising The Trial of a Time Lord.

The Pakleds from the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode Samaritan Snare were intended to be a parody of Star Trek fans.

This sketch from A Bit of Fry and Laurie depicts Stephen Fry’s reaction to increasing choice in the media landscape. Watch it all the way through — there’s a lovely surprise in there for fans of Doctor Who.

Richard identifies 7 Faces of Dr. Lao (1964) as one of the inspirations for this story. The eponymous Doctor is played by Tony Randall in some appalling yellowface. Check out the trailer here.

Picks of the week

Brendan

Take a deep breath. Brendan’s first pick is Doctor Who on Holiday a remix by Dean Gray of The KLF’s Doctorin’ the TARDIS, featuring Green Day. It’s good.

His second pick is The X-Men: The Animated Series Podcast, a podcast in which two American fans discuss, well, X-Men: The Animated Series.

Nathan

Evelyn Waugh’s Vile Bodies, read by Robert Hardy. It’s not available on Audible in the US. Write to your Congressman. (Audible UK) (Audible AU)
