The Ood Cast S05E18 - Life's Too Silver
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 29 minutes and 49 seconds"We have to get the thrip-wibble to modulate the tharack bar."
In which we broadcast in glorious stereo, a cyber pig gets locked in a cupboard of shame, there is a terrible flute solo and we check ourselves before we wreck ourselves.
Reviews: Nightmare in Silver
Air Date: 16th May 2013
Additional notes: Guest star Warwick Davis has been in more SF films than you can shake a light sabre at. But we chose to name this episode after a Ricky Gervais mockumentary he starred in. It isn’t very funny. At one point, he gets stuck in a dog flap.
-
The Ood Cast S05E17 - Red Dead Redemption
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 32 minutes and 33 seconds"It was like Batman with old people."
In which we feel pity for baby kangaroos, hit people with chairs, varnish stuff with syrup & end up red-faced.
Reviews: The Crimson Horror
Air Date: 9th May 2013
Additional notes: Two sketches this week had to be completely re-done because Sigma used the laptop’s internal microphone to record them by mistake. The Northern gentleman in the first sketch (with a voice like melted chocolate) is special guest star, Jim Atkins. The other one is Alpha. He is trying out a range of accents.
-
The Ood Cast S05E16 - Rag & Bone
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 35 minutes and 59 seconds"Overall I enjoyed it … as I would a drawer of cables."
In which we find our centre, taste Afghanistan, debate transcendental architecture and it is, to all intents and purposes, Zombie Time.
Reviews: Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS
Air Date: 2nd May 2013
Additional notes: The talented chap who provides our theme song this week was one of the brilliant students we met during our recent trip to San Francisco. We climbed a big hill to visit his school. In San Francisco you have to climb big hills to do pretty much anything. It’s part of the deal – along with awesome dim sum, killer views and hanging off of trams. Also our thighs got pretty trim.
-
The Ood Cast S05E15 - Seek
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 31 minutes and 23 seconds"It’s a thing in a thing in a thing…"
In which we hear several crooked love stories, the TARDIS has a hissy fit, Sigma tries to mug himself and problems are solved with a flying head butt…
Reviews: Hide
Air Date: 25th April 2013
Additional notes: Immediately preceding the recording of this episode the Ood Cast consumed an entire Thorntons Easter egg that didn’t even belong to them. See, we’re not all sunshine and smiles … we have an edge. Try not to cut yourself.
-
The Ood Cast S05E14 - I Love the 80s
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 32 minutes and 55 seconds"The Ice Warriors are a double threat, if they could dance they’d be a triple threat…"
In which there is much electronica and hippity-hopping, a mammoth foetus, broken bones and broken promises and a lovely pickle.
Reviews: Cold War
Air Date: 18th April 2013
Additional notes: This entire episode was recorded with all the Oods sitting crossed legged on the floor beside a low table. All except Chris Sigma. He had a luxury bean bag.
-
The Ood Cast S05E13 - Here Comes the Sun
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 37 minutes and 33 seconds"When I saw my wife, I was so aroused I vomited up a fruit salad!"
In which there is fried food, a series of cute robots, bendy fingers, classical reminiscing and a small child eating a pear.
Reviews: The Rings of Akhaten
Air Date: 11th April 2013
Additional notes: During this week the Sigmas have escaped London and travelled to all three countries in Great Britain. Lots of planets have a north…
-
The Ood Cast S05E12 - Sharda
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 33 minutes and 10 seconds“Monks are cool!”
In which there is plain chant, booty shaking, souls lost in binary prisons and a two year old steals the show.
Reviews: The Bells of Saint John
Air Date: 2nd April 2013
Additional notes: The music in this episode spans some 500 years. The day of release was exactly 5 years after the Ood Cast published their first blog post. Happy Anniversary, us!
-
The Ood Cast S05E11 - Snow Business
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 48 minutes and 46 secondsIt’s February. And what’s the first thing you think of when you think of February? That’s right…
Christmas.
So with that in mind, the Ood Cast present their review of the Christmas special – The Snowmen.
What would Strax have done in biblical times? What other tall tales did Clara tell? How did Sir Arthur Conan Doyle explain away Madame Vastra to his agent? Can Jenna-Louise Coleman do just the two accents?
These are all questions. Good ones. And we’ll answer every single one of them in a vigorously dramatic format. All that and a couple of spirited musical interludes besides.
Come with us on our hideously delayed sleigh ride of wonder.
IT’S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR.
FEBRUARY.

The Ood Cast Annual 2012
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 35 minutes and 38 seconds“To fire monkeys into people’s bums…”
You know when you win a Christmas hamper at the raffle? You’re really excited but then you peek underneath the bottle of cava, bits of raffia and Elizabeth Shaw mints, and you find that someone’s padded out the bottom with dusty tins of spam, pineapple chunks in sugar-free syrup and those crackers that taste like baked paper?
This episode is nothing like that.
The Ood Cast (Audio) Annual 2012 is exploding from top to bottom with Christmassy goodness (a bit like Andy), including an opportunity to win a spot as a guest host, the Audio Ood Cast Monster Guide, a story from Michael of Tin Dog Podcast fame, puzzles, fact files, an 80′s smash hit and most importantly, THE LITTLEST DOCTOR!
Listen until you feel bloated and sick, then swear off us, promise you’ll do better in January and wait for two weeks before giving in and listening again. We know that’s what you’ll do. We’ll be doing it too.

The Ood Cast S05E10 - An Unearthly Nugget
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 40 minutes and 1 secondIn several shades of grey, slightly fuzzy around the edges and beloved of children everywhere, it’s the first ever episode of Doctor Who – An Unearthly Child. But what will the Oods make of their first review of a classic episode? Will Andy oscillate with whirling paroxysms of joy? Will Loz fall asleep live on air? Will Sigma reference pagan rituals and summon demons from the netherworld? Will Alph tread the knife edge of politically incorrect comedy without slipping and accentally slicing himself in half like a Damien Hirst sculpture?
Find out ALL THIS and MORE in Episode 10!
Now with added 60′s funky time bending flummery.

The Ood Cast S05E09 - BBC
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 24 minutes and 46 seconds“Eat a spider & then sit through Vengence of Varos.”
At the Ood Cast, you won’t be flabbergasted to hear that we hate to see lovely old British institutions taking a hammering from people who really couldn’t do any better themselves.
That’s right, we’re talking about the BBC!
Haterz back off!
Sure, it’s not perfect but it’s still one of the UK’s best features. Along with cream teas, the NHS and Bill Bailey.
So for this episood, we chose to sit the mics next to a speaker grille and record a solid 25 minutes of Radio 4. Because we’re highbrow and that.
Also, Goaty. Gotyay? Goatee? Gotye. Because it’s slightly more melodic than other cult YouTube sensation ‘Gangnam Style’ and Laura’s Korean is limited to ‘hello’, ‘thank-you’ and ‘you cannot buy a monkey at this market’*
*True
-
The Ood Cast S05E08 - Across the Pond
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 30 minutes and 27 seconds“May the best of your past be the worst of your future...”
In which we consider the Ponds as companions, people, fictional characters and plot devices.
Join the Ood Cast for a lovely chat about the beautiful and spirited Ponds.
As the Autumnal evenings pull in, pour yourself a hot chocolate and settle back to listen to us discussing these most complex and compelling of modern companions, taking in the entire sweep of their journey with the Doctor.
PLUS the untold story of Amelia Pond’s origin, a Bond/ Doctor Who cross-over theme song and the inaugural EPIC RAP BATTLE OF TIME.
Begin!

NEW ALBUM - Marriages & Stopped Clocks
Episode Duration: 0 minutes and 0 secondsFeast your ears on the Ood Cast’s new direction – an electric joyride through 25 tracks of dubstep delight. We hope you wub it as much as we wub’d recording it.
That’s not what you were expecting? Oh well. Back to the ‘B’ side….
This time it’s songs from the fourth & fifth series of The Ood Cast – Doctor Who parodies from every conceivable genre of music from folk to rap (yes … rap) via Jonny Cash, Aqua, Ani Difranco, Jonathan Coulton & Ed Sheeran…
… but if those guys were interested in human-shaped spaceships, minotaurs, cyborgs & Steven Moffat.
TWENTY FIVE tracks for your listening pleasure, including two songs that are EXCLUSIVE to the album. You can’t hear them anywhere else.

The Ood Cast S05E07 - The Regeneration Game 3
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 36 minutes and 18 secondsFingers on nodules, everyone – it’s the Ood Cast’s semi-regular quiz show format, this time hosted by the redoubtable Laura Sigma.
But what has Loz got in store for her co-hosts? Fiendish musical offerings? Insane leaps of pure fiction that bear little to no resemblance to rational thought? A bit where language breaks down completely?
You bet your sweet brain cells she does. All that and more besides.
Who will win? And what does that say about that person exactly?
Experience the game show that Laura herself describes as ‘pretty mental’.
-
The Ood Cast S05E06 - Winter Quay is Coming
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 37 minutes and 45 seconds“You know how mosquitos fly through the rain...?”
She was just a girl. A girl with long legs and an even longer memory. And the skinny guy- fading from the corners of her vision like a puddle disturbed by a footstep – was a nurse. They called him “Mr Sweetdreams” on the night shift because his use of topical anaesthesia was legendary.
She could still hear voices on the wind from the past – talk of dames, plot holes and dry towels, of laughter, longing, loss and a shadowy character spoken of in whispers as ‘The Moff’. Why did he enjoy inflicting pain on those who loved him? Was he a misanthrope? A genius? Or just a really twisted scotsman?
What ever he was, she knew she had to get out of town – and fast. But where could she run from that creeping grey menace? Was it ageing or angels that she feared? Was it even fear at all – or the urging of something even more primal – that drove her forward. She shut her eyes – stretched out her pale hands – and gave chase.

The Ood Cast S05E05 - Box Clever
Episode Duration: 0 minutes and 0 seconds“I think he looked rather jolly … with his cheek tusks. I’m calling them chusks.”
The surface of the cube is cold to the touch. Cold but with something surging behind it, like a heart beat.
Like a storm.
You run your fingers along its hard edges, trying to discern something of its function in its form but come up blank. Your mind can’t wrap itself around the concept of it. Too advanced, too alien.
You turn to leave and that’s when it hums to life, glyphs picked out in a pulsating blue flicker across its dark surface. And that’s when you understand, that’s when you hear – a history of Earth in five waves of a sonic screwdriver, real lions at Nelson’s column, the bonobo tariff, four, mad chattering voices uniting in praise...
You turn and run but already you know it’s too late; can already feel the hairs rising on your neck as the bolt of electricity arcs across the void and connects with your heart. And as you slip into the darkness beyond your last thought hangs for a moment in the fading theatre of your subconscious ...
That podcast was totally worth it.

The Ood Cast S05E04 - The Good, The Bad & The Super Ugly
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 36 minutes and 39 seconds“I did like the cyborg – his face looked like pork scratchings stapled to a ball bearing...”
When I was a child, my favourite story was about a podcast that went on forever. A podcast packed with tales of the Old West, talking hammers and a double macchiato and cactus cake meal deal.
A podcast that came from the internet.
By the time this episode arrived, the listeners of the Ood Cast were used to the strange and the impossible. But were they ready for guest stars from Radio Free Skaro, The Two Minute Timelord, The Doctor Who Podcast, Radio Rassilon, The Doctor Who Book Club and The Minute Doctor Who Podcast?
Where they came from didn’t matter, as a man once said “You can find them all at www.doctorwhopodcastalliance.org”.
Do I believe the story? I don’t know. But next time you’re on the internet, ask someone why they don’t have a marshall or a sheriff or a policeman there?
“Because that would be almost impossible to enforce in a global digital community” they’ll say.
And then they’ll smile like they got a secret.
Like they got their own special podcast to listen to. Their very own podcast that came ... from the internet.

The Ood Cast S05E03 - Dinocast on a Spacepod
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 40 minutes and 25 secondsRiddell pushed his way through the undergrowth, the thick, verdant leaves of the jungle tugging at his shirt sleeves and the exposed skin beneath. An array of flying insects buzzed ceaselessly around him, drawn by the salty tang of the sweat pooling in the furrows of his forehead and the shifting plain of flesh between his shoulder blades.
And yet the mighty game hunter didn’t move an inch. Despite the irritants, the discomfort, the yearning pain in his thighs, he remained motionless.
She was beautiful.
Less than 15 feet away, the Ood Cast Season 5, Episode 3 stretched its long neck and let out a low, satisfied roar. The beast was clearly at peace.
Vulnerable.
From his hidden perch Riddell could clearly see every inch of his prey. The ferocious looking claws, the parody songs, the review of Dinosaurs on a Spaceship, even the welcome presence of a return appearance by the Littlest Doctor.
He was near enough to see the whites of its eyes … and the hilarious spoof sketches about secondhand dinosaurs, T-Rexes in the bath, killer kestrels & a robotic Laurel & Hardy.
This was his chance. His whole life had led up to this moment.
With a measured exhalation Riddell brought his rifle up to his shoulder and aimed for the heart…

The Ood Cast S05E02 - Dalek, Interrupted
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 40 minutes and 51 seconds“I think that sounds a bit like an ill cockerel…”
This week, flogging a dead cybermat, the Ood Cast return to the concept of “Sexy Daleks”. There's also an earnest debate, peculiar mouth noises, a wet shave and some filing cabinets. Not to mention a new companion, an exciting twist and the Special Weapons Dalek.
Elsewhere, an industrial manufacturer gets an order they just can't handle, Skaro may or may not have been destroyed and Alpha’s being a good Dad.
Yes, a brilliant first episode has flashed past our screens. We’ve tried to review it but to be honest, it's all a bit of a Blur…
We’re just flirting to keep you interested.

The Ood Cast S05E01 - 22 Short Stories About Doctor Who
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 47 minutes and 27 seconds"Run a bath, lie back, relax and prepare to have your animal instincts awoken."
We don't know about you, but our eyeballs are glowing white-hot in anticipation of the start of the next series. It's a bit like ’42′. We are running out of cucumber slices. To try and whet our appetites, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE OODS got out pens, paper & ipads and set to work creating a smorgasbord of plays, stories, memories, poetry and vignettes to amuse, move and inspire you. And to take your mind off reading any spoiler-stuffed reviews (we're looking at you, Dr Who Magazine)…
Join Alpha, Andy, Sigma and Loz from cradle to- well – now, as they explore what goes on in the writer’s room, how to ride a triceratops, why the Doctor fought a dragon and the more sensuous side of the Daleks.
(clue: it's ribbed for your pleasure)
Whoopee!

The Ood Cast S04E12 - The Ood Cast Awards
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 57 minutes and 36 seconds“And the winner is…”
The Oscars.A The Golden Globes.A The BAFTAs.A Rear of the Year.
These are some award ceremonies we have heard of and, in some cases, been nominated for (Andy came fourteenth in the 1987 Rear of the Year – we’re very proud).
A little late to capitalise on the awards season, perhaps, but the fevered minds at The Ood Cast are rolling out the red carpet for the great, the good and the naggingly-unsatisfactory-in-some-minor-way to assess Series 6 as a whole and divvy up some hand-cast trinkets to the things we loved and those we loved a little less.
(Come on, you’re not listening to a normal podcast here … we love everything!)
So take your seats, adjust those tuxedos and swishy dresses and enjoy The Ood Cast Awards 2012!

The Ood Cast S04E11- Who's That Girl (Running Around With You)?
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 31 minutes and 39 seconds“She has a nice round face with dimples on it … and I quite like her hair.”
Doctor Who is nearly 50. It has been around for almost half a century and yet remains one of the most popular, creative and vital shows on television.
And the secret to this ridiculous longevity? Sure scripts, actors and production values play a part but the key ingredient, we would argue, is change.
The ability to renew itself, to change almost entirely and yet remain completely recognisable has emerged over the years as the programme’s greatest strength.
Now join the Ood Cast to celebrate the latest in a long glorious line of changes as Jenna-Louise Coleman is announced as the new companion.
Hear their opinions on the future of our beloved programme and then be prepared to be whisked into the recent past as Chris Sigma presents his feedback from the official convention.
Past, present, future – all of time and space is waiting for you.
Plus some people explode.

The Ood Cast S04E10 - The Roberts of Death
Episode Duration: 0 days, 0 hours, 45 minutes and 50 seconds“Itas a pantomime about Fascism.”
Oooh, you lucky, lucky listeners.
Have we got a treat for you?
Gareth Roberts, writer of our Favourite Show Ever and hot off the desk from publishing his most recent novel, the Douglas Adams-inspired Shada, has floated down like a lovely hairy cherub wearing a Skype headset so we can ask him embarrassing questions on your behalf.
What’s it like working on the show? What’s the worst idea he’s ever had? Whatas going to happen in Season 7? What if the Fourth Doctor had touched the wires together in aGenesis of the Daleksa and Robert Shearman consequently had to write an episode called aClama?
All this AND CLAYTON HICKMAN IN THE BACKGROUND!
Monkeys, monkeys!
