the doctor

On this Pertwee-centric, and again, unnecessarily drawn-out episode of Impromptu Who, Colin and Brian discuss all seven episodes of "Inferno" (the final serial in which we feel like we've stared directly into the Time Vortex). We discuss the Doctor attempting to escape his Earth exile, but wibbily-wobblies his way into an alternate dimension where Britain is run by an authoritarian regime similar to "1984" or a particular German variety. Colin just wants a simple explanation of the poorly-explained pseudo-science, whereas Brian is just tired of 7-episode serials (SPOILER: this is the last one, we promise).

Our subject from this episode is Doctor Who: Season 7, Episodes 19-25, titled "Inferno": https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0562854/

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... The News

Well, it's not really the news, this is Paul's chance to air his views on the return of David Tennant and Catherine Tate to Doctor Who and also what he thought of Legend of The Sea Devils! Then Phil and Paul's conversation turns to what might happen in the 60th anniversary year?

Review - Enlightenment

Phil and Paul finally get around to discussing Enlightenment, the final part of The Black Guardian Trilogy from 1983.  It's been a long time since either of them watched this but they found a lot to enjoy in an unusual story from that period of Doctor Who. And of course they discuss the acting talents of Leeeeeeeeeeeeeee John!

Legend of the Sea Devils - Review

This episode sees Phil and Scott take a look at the second of this years Doctor Who specials, Legend of the Sea Devils.  But was it special?  Scott starts off positive enough but is soon dragged down to Davy Jones Locker by Phil who is less than enthusiastic!  But of course they also get stuck into the next time trailer which sees the return of two fan favourites!

The News

In the news, we say goodbye to June Brown and Sonny Caldinez and say hello to the Peter Cushing Dalek stories which are being released in glorious 4K.

Logopolis Audio Commentary - Part 2

This week Phil and Scott continue with their audio commentary for Logopolis. As they sit down to watch episodes 3 & 4 and say goodbye to the 4th Doctor, Scott is still concerned about Adrics shiny nose and the pair of them wonder what Adric is looking at off camera and whether all he actually wants is a potato based comestible?

Logopolis - Audio Commentary Part 1

This episode Scott picks another Doctor Who story to watch and this time he selected Logopolis for your delectation!

As Phil sits down with him to watch episodes 1 and 2 this week, he gets confused and fails to explain properly what is going on with the Tardis entering itself (ooer!), whilst Scott enjoys Tegan being gobby and is amazed at the shine on Adrics nose!

Review - Bloodtide

This month Phil and Paul challenge the evolution of humankind by taking a look at Bloodtide from Big Finish. While the Silurians in this story shake up Charles Darwins theory of evolution, Phil gets despondent at the same tactics that we've seen employed before by our 3 eyed monsters, while Paul defends the audio version of the Myrka!

The News

Christopher Eccleston has demands if he is to return for Doctor Who's 60th Anniversary and we say goodbye to 3 people from Doctor Who.

Omega's Tittle Tattle Corner

Rumours abound for the 60th Anniversary with all the post 2005 Doctors supposedly returning and another rumour for a new Doctor Who LEGO game which gets Phil excited!

Live on stage at last year's Adelaide Festival, we're joined by the Olivier Award-winning English star of the stage and screen, Juliet Stevenson. Juliet was performing in the play The Doctor, following its sell-out season at London's Almeida Theatre.

Also, with much of the country back in lockdown, we turn to musical comedian Jude Perl to lift our spirits at the piano and we enjoy a masterclass with actor, director and acting coach Larry Moss, whose coaching has led actors to Academy Award-winning glory.

On this episode of Daleks Aren't Robots!? we return to Hartnell and to the Daleks as we also say goodbye to a companion who has been with us from the beginning.

Today, we look at "Reign of Terror," a Doctor Who story that sees the TARDIS team travel to revolutionary France.  Will they lose their heads?  Will we lose ours? Will we confidently discuss French politics despite not knowing anything much about it? (Yes. Yes we will.)

Today, we look at The Aztecs, a famous serial and Josh's favorite of the Hartnell era.  Are its awkward brownface and excessively clothed Aztecs dealbreakers, or is all that outweighed by the Doctor's first love interest, Barbara's steely determination and Ian's hilarious chicken outfit?
