A Hamster With a Blunt Penknife - a Doctor Who Commentary podcast

Join Joe & Michael as they head out into the Cold to face the prejudices of the 1960s, try and convince that strange old man in the junkyard that humanity is worth saving and navigate teenage life in a strange land.

Joe & Dan; 'You couldn't even design a simple doorknob!' How does this plot all come together - with all the factions joining forces to defeat the evil Kroagnon of course! We watch as this script completes its journey very neatly.

Joe & Dan; 'I am Kroagnon, the Great Architect, and I will put an end to you and everyone in Paradise Towers!' The plot starts to coalesce beautifully, the Doctor is pulling all the threads together and Kroagnon reveals his hand.

Joe & Dan; 'Build High for Happiness!' Episode two and we're seeing a Doctor form before our eyes, much discussion of Richard Briers as the Chief Caretaker and how do we feel about that dark fairytale cliffhanger?

Joe & Dan; 'Well you never can tell...' It's the dawn of a bold new era. Out with the camp, in with the urban comic book thriller. Maybe quite a bit of camp still. But brilliant worldbuilding, dialogue and an awesome Doctor emerging.

Joe, Andrew & Luke take to the mean streets and gothic forests to tackle gangsters and vampires and ponder the question...can anyone else do it quite like Terrance Dicks?

This is the closest Hamster has come to being a warm hug - it's Si Hart & season eighteen! I visited his house and we sat on his sofa and squeed about his favourite era of the show for two hours. Enjoy :-)
